What’s New?

Starting with the pinnacle models, the Suzuki GSX-R1000 and its subsequent racier versions, the GSX-R1000R and the GSX-R1000RZ. Both the Suzuki GSX-R1000R and GSX-R1000 have gained the same new Candy Daring Red colour scheme with matching red wheels, and a Glass Matte Sword Silver option with new bright blue graphics on the fairing that is aptly complimented by black wheels. The top-spec Suzuki GSX-R1000RZ will be available with the Pearl Brilliant White and Metallic Triton Blue paint scheme with the suspension components coloured in anodized blue.

On the other hand, Suzuki has managed to keep the GSX-R750 classy in appearance with the Pearl Brilliant White and Metallic Matte Stellar Blue options. Whereas, its subsequent sportier iteration, the GSX-R750Z has received a new Pearl Brilliant White/ Metallic Triton Blue option.

What Has Remained The Same?

Mechanically, both the bikes have remained the same. This means that the GSX-R1000s will continue to be powered by the same 199 bhp/ 117.6 Nm, 999.8 cc, inline-four cylinder engine. The GSX-R750 will continue to sport the same 148 bhp/ 86.3 Nm, 750 cc, inline-four engine.

The nimble chassis set-up in both bikes will also remain the same wherein both are built around the same twin-spar aluminium frame balanced by Showa Big Piston Fork (BPF) and a fully adjustable monoshock absorber. Feature-wise, both the bikes will also remain alike as before. This will include the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector button, along with slip and assist and clutch, and quickshifter as standard.

Last Hurrah!

It’s a bit of a shame that Suzuki has pulled the plug on one of its most competitive bikes with the new 2025 iterations of the GSX-R being limited to the the United States only. There is no confirmation from Suzuki USA too whether newer evolved iterations of the bike will follow in the future or not. The main reason for the discontinuation of its super bike series is the stringent emission norms and falling sales which according to the Japanese brand doesn’t make it financially viable to keep producing them. Either way, as the world transitions into newer alternative forms of mobility (EVs), the decision to make this transition is coming at the cost of some good bikes getting discontinued.
