2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000

This is all new 2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000. With a more powerful, cleaner-running engine. A more nimble chassis and more responsive suspension. In a more compact and lighter package. Wrapped with an edgy new look. Its like the motto : Suzuki Own The Racetrack.


Features

• 999cm3 4-cylinder powerplant, designed lighter and 59.6mm shorter from front to rear, delivers more power and torque, and enhanced throttle response across the entire rpm range.

• The new compact engine enabled 10mm shorter wheelbase and 33mm longer swingarm to improve racetrack performance.

• New, more over-square bore x stroke of 74.5mm x 57.3mm (changed from 73.4mm x 59.0mm) gives the engine better overall tuning potential. The compression ratio is now 12.8:1, changed from 12.5:1.

• The engine employs enlarged titanium valves in diameter, forged pistons, shot-peened conrods and Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)-plated cylinders integrated into the crankcase, reducing friction and improving heat transfer, durability and ring seal.

• 12-hole fuel injectors produce a finer fuel mist for more complete combustion, reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.

• Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) offers push-button selection of three performance settings to suit riding conditions and personal tastes. Now the switch is relocated on the left handlebar control module.

• Iridium spark plugs produce a stronger spark for better combustion.

• Large, efficient radiator with a trapezoidal shape developed on factory team racebikes and a trapezoidal engine oil cooler both help reduce drag.

• Cable-operated back-torque-limiting clutch makes for efficient clutch operation with superb feel.

• Unique Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) uses an under-engine chamber and low-slung, large-volume MotoGP-inspired titanium mufflers.

• Twin-spar cradle frame made of five cast sections, mated with an arched swingarm made of three castings and one-piece die-cast rear subframe.

• Big Piston Frontforks (BPF) with an endurance-race-proven design deliver superb feedback and responsive, stable operation, and are lightweight.

• Rear shock absorber features adjustable rebound damping, spring preload, and both high-speed and low-speed compression damping.

• Front brakes with fully floating 310mm discs and rigid, lightweight race-proven monoblock forged radial-mount calipers.

• The edgy and clean GSX-R1000 styling incorporates fairing and bodywork details aimed at reducing turbulence and drag.

• Attention to rider comfort includes a carefully shaped seat and adjustable footpegs. Tailsection cover included for solo rides or track days.

• Sculpted fuel tank is lighter, while capacity remains 17.5 liters (4.6 US gal).

• New look multi-reflector headlight with vertically stacked high and low-beam halogen bulbs centered between position lights on each side.

• For Europe, the position lights each have layered lenses with blue coloring on the inside lens for an even sportier look.

• Front and rear turn signals feature clear lenses over amber bulbs.

• Instruments include a silver-ringed analog tachometer with LCD speedometer. LCD readouts include odometer, dual trip meters, reserve trip meter, clock, coolant temperature/oil pressure warning indicator, gear position indicator, lap timer/stopwatch, S-DMS setting indicator and bar-graph indicating the instrument lighting level, or brightness.
