Fri, 14 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-reveals-sv-7gx-at-eicma Suzuki has revealed a new SV-7GX, which was unveiled today at Eicma in Milan, Italy. The covers were also pulled off an updated GSX-S1000GX. The SV-7GX uses an updated version of Suzukis proven and somewhat legendary 645cc V-twin engine, which is now fully-compliant with the latest Euro5+ emissions regulations. Peak power is 73PS and peak torque is 64Nm. Aiding efficiency and performance is a new magneto, transmission gears, airbox, a ride-by-wire throttle, and a new exhaust system. As the GX suffix suggests, the SV-7GX will provide a middleweight sports crossover option in the Suzuki lineup, alongside the range-topping GSX-S1000GX. A steel trellis frame is equipped with suspension from KYB, which provides a plush ride quality designed to make it easy to cover distance in comfort on the 7GX. The seat height remains accessible for a multitude of riders at 795mm. Wheels are new cast aluminium 17, front and rear, and are shod with Pirelli Angel GT 2 tyres. They work with the chassis to provide the sport element to the new sports crossover. Tokico calipers and twin 290mm discs provide the stopping power. Tall, wide, tapered aluminium bars provide an upright and comfortable riding position, but place weight over the front tyre enough to generate feel and allow riders to enjoy the sporty side of the 7GX when away from the motorway or dual carriageways. Handguards come as standard. On the electronics side, smartphone connectivity comes as standard and allows riders to access everything from maps to contacts and messages from intuitive switchgear on the left handlebar. All information is displayed via a colour TFT screen, which also indicates the selected throttle map, with three to choose from, as well as the chosen traction control setting, also with three to choose from, as well as off. Theres a USB-C charging port on the left hand side. The electronics package also includes a standard-fit bi-directional quickshifter for seamless up and down gear changes. Wind-tunnel tested bodywork shields the rider from the worst of the elements and provides aerodynamic efficiency, with styling cues taken from the bigger GSX-S1000GX. Theres a 17.4-litre fuel tank. Lighting is full LED all round, with a new asaerial design at the front for improved illumination and visibility while cornering. An accessories catalogue includes a 45-litre top box, soft panniers, tank bags, and heated grips. Pricing for the SV-7GX will be announced in due course, with the arrival set for late summer, 2026. Suzuki has also announced updates to the GSX-S1000GX. The ultimate sports crossover model which was revealed at Eicma only two years ago has received a round of subtle updates to further improve its performance as a motorcycle adept at both covering long distances in speed and comfort, as well as offering up sporting intentions when the rider wants to enjoy a more twisty, winding route. A suite of changes includes the addition of new winglets to the GXs fairing, improving downforce and enhancing stability at high speeds. Modifications to the mirror mountings reduce vibrations for clearer rearward visibility. The GSX-S1000GX puts out 152PS and 106Nm of torque from its 999cc inline four-cylinder engine. A twin-spar aluminium frame and GSX-R-derived swingarm is suspended by semi-active electronic suspension from Showa. A colour TFT screen shows selected modes of a plethora of rider aids, including seven IMU-governed traction control settings, and the ability to disengage entirely.

In the UK the GSX-S1000GX will be available solely as a GX+ variant, which means it will come with free 36-litre panniers as standard. It will arrive in early 2026 with an OTR price of 14,999. Suzuki also confirmed that the e-Address, first revealed at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo in New Delhi in January this year, will form part of its European model range in 2026, More information will be released in due course. Tue, 04 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/fresh-colours-for-suzuki-scooters Suzuki has revealed new colour options for its Avenis 125 and Burgman Street 125EX scooters. Sitting alongside the recently updated Address 125 in Suzukis small capacity scooter lineup, the sportily-styled Avenis is now available in a striking bronze and black combination with a large, race livery-esque Avenis decal running across the side panels and a more understated all-black. The luxury Burgman Street 125EX also comes in an all-black, plus a smart, sophisticated matt navy blue, and Pearl Grace White; a stylish off-white. Both models use the proven Suzuki Eco Performance engine, which has powered over five million scooters worldwide and delivers 8.7PS and 10Nm of peak torque in the Avenis, and 8.6PS in the Burgman, while achieving an impressive 148.67mpg. Both scooters also boast 21.5 litres of under seat storage space, two helmet hooks, and two utility hooks. Upfront theres a USB charging port in a closable storage compartment. The Avenis 125 is currently available with an OTR price of 2,599, while the Burgman Street 125EX comes with an OTR price of 2,799. VIEW AVENIS VIEW BURGMAN 125EX Thu, 04 Sep 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-releases-updated-address-125-scooter Suzuki GB has announced the release of an updated Address 125 scooter, with a revised engine that produces more peak torque lower down the rev range, courtesy of changes to its camshaft profile and airbox. Theres also a revised frame, which is lighter, new wheels, and a new fuel tank that is both larger and lighter. Practicality is further boosted by an increase in underseat storage space. Though the bodywork has been restyled, the Address 125 continues to embody classic scooter design. At its heart remains Suzukis Eco Performance engine (SEP), which has a proven track record for both performance and reliability, and already powers over seven million Suzuki scooters, globally. The newest version meets the latest Euro 5+ emissions standards, achieving 148.6mpg, emitting just 45 g/km of CO. Peak torque increases to 10.2Nm and is now made at 5,000rpm, compared to 10Nm at 5,500rpm on the previous model and peak power is 8.4PS, made 250rpm further down the rev range than before, at 6,500rpm, resulting in punchier acceleration performance. Changes to the camshaft profile improve combustion efficiency and engine performance. Specifically, the intake cam lifts higher to increase the amount of air intake, while the exhaust cam timing was adjusted to minimise overlap. The airbox capacity has also increased 10%, and one of the two exhaust catalytic converters has been eliminated. Further measures to improve fuel efficiency include the adoption of an electromagnetic steel plate for the stator core, a change in the fuel injector mounting angle, modification of the CVT settings, and a lower idling rpm. The engine starts up more quietly thanks to the change from an overrunning clutch to a roller type one-way clutch, and the crankshaft was revised to accommodate this change. An updated underbone frame is 1kg lighter than the previous version, and increases torsional rigidity by 25%. The result is contribution to excellent fuel economy, stability, and cornering performance. The modifications to the frame which also saw the rear suspension pivot point moved higher and further back also enabled other improvements, such as a larger under seat storage compartment, a larger airbox, and a bigger fuel tank. Despite increasing capacity from five to 5.3 litres, the new fuel tank is 25% lighter. A combined braking system sees braking force distributed to both the front and rear wheels with a 190mm disc at the front and a 120mm drum at the rear when the left brake lever is operated. Rider and pillion comfort is improved via a new seat and new pillion footpegs which are lighter and 15mm longer. Theres a wide, spacious floorboard for riders to adjust their feet position, and a new steel leg shield extends further to offer protection in case of a drop. Theres also a steel front mudguard. The unique tail-mounted fuel cap of the previous model remains, but is now concealed via a colour-coded cap, which opens with the ignition key. Underseat storage space is increased from 21.8 litres to 24.4 litres, and a second inner storage pocket has been added up front, with one housing a USB charging port, and there are two utility hooks to hang bags and two helmet hooks under the seat. A sidestand and centre stand are standard equipment, and standard security features include a shutter that covers the ignition key hole that is opened by a magnet mechanism coded to the owners key. Still wearing classic scooter styling, the rectangular headlight has been reshaped and boasts a classy chrome surround, and a new LED, U-shaped position light sits centrally below the Suzuki emblem, and is flanked by two additional LED position lights with integrated indicators. Theres also a U-shaped, LED rear taillight. The 2026 Address 125 comes in Metallic Matt Stellar Blue, Pearl Grace White, and Metallic Matt Black No.2. It is available now with an OTR price of 2,599. Mon, 01 Sep 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/the-gsx-r1000r-returns Suzuki has announced that the GSX-R1000R will return to the UK. Designed to perform, built to thrill, the GSX-R1000R gets an updated engine to meet Euro5+ regulations whilst maintaining high levels of performance output. Changes include a new crankshaft, crankcases, pistons, connecting rods, and a higher compression ratio. Theres also a new exhaust, an updated suite of electronics, and winglets that increase downforce at higher speeds. Despite a number of changes made to satisfy the latest emissions standards, the updates to the engine also enhance the GSX-R1000Rs performance potential, making it capable of withstanding the tuning required to compete successfully in premier class endurance, superbike, and superstock racing competitions. The announcement comes ahead of the prestigious Suzuka 8-Hour endurance race in Japan and the third round of the 2025 FIM Endurance World Championship, a championship that the GSX-R1000 has won 15 times since 2001. The announcement also comes as part of this years 40th anniversary celebrations of the GSX-R range, when the GSX-R750F changed the world of sportsbikes forever in 1985. As a result, the GSX-R1000R will come in a trio of colour schemes inspired by classic GSX-R liveries of the past, each adorned with a 40th anniversary logo on the fairing and fuel tank. Engine The GSX-R1000Rs 1000cc, inline four-cylinder engine still uses Suzukis MotoGP-developed variable valve timing system. Developed on the firms GSX-RR prototype racer, which won the 2020 MotoGP world championship, the mechanical system is built into the intake cam sprocket and an adjacent guide plate. It uses 12 steel balls and slanted grooves to rotate the sprocket and retard the intake valve timing at a pre-set rpm, boosting high-rpm power without sacrificing midrange and lower-rpm output. It also retains a finger follower valve train, though the shape of the fingers on both the intake and exhaust sides were changed and optimised to match the new cam profile. In addition, the exhaust valve diameter was changed from 24mm to 25mm, plus there are new camshafts and a wider cam chain. Maximum valve lift remains the same, with reduced overlap to help meet emissions targets. Theres a new fuel pump to increase fuel pressure, and changes to the fuel injectors, with the secondary top feed injector changing from 10 to eight holes to contribute to cleaner emissions. To help maintain power output, new throttle bodies boast a larger bore; up to 48mm from 46mm, while air delivered to the throttle bodies travels through newly designed single-stage funnels, further boosting peak power. New, forged aluminium pistons have short skirts, cutaway sides and a short, DLC-coated wrist pin to reduce friction. The piston heads were reshaped to increase the compression ratio to 13.8:1 and accommodate the size of the increased exhaust valve diameter. The new pistons contribute to power output, reduced vibration, and durability. The connecting rods are chrome-molybdenum steel with a carburised surface treatment to increase strength and are designed to enhance reliability when under higher levels of tune for racing. The crankshaft adopts a new design with thicker journals, increased from 35mm to 37mm, designed to accommodate higher loads and withstand higher levels of tune in racing environments, plus new crankcases were designed in conjunction with the new crankshaft. As well as being highly attractive and etched with a GSX-R logo, the new exhaust silencer body is more compact, reducing its capacity from 8.3 to 5.5 liters. A larger capacity elliptical catalytic converter in the collector is positioned closer to the engine to facilitate quicker warming, which helps improve its performance. Peak power is 195PS at 13,200rpm, with peak torque 110.0Nm at 11,000rpm. Chassis The new GSX-R1000R uses the same lightweight twin-spar aluminium frame, subframe, and braced aluminium swingarm as the previous version. Suspension comes courtesy of Showa, with its balance free front forks at the front, and a balance free rear shock at the rear, and theres an electronically-controlled steering damper. At the front, brakes are Brembo monoblock calipers, biting 320mm discs. At the rear sits a single caliper and 220m disc. Theres also a new ABS unit that saves 51 grams over the previous version GSX-R1000R. Lightweight cast aluminium wheels wear Bridgestone BATTLAX RACING STREET RS11 tyres: 120/70ZR17M/ at the front, 190/55ZR17M/C at the rear. Developed in conjunction with the Suzuki CN Challenge race team, which contested the 2024 Suzuka 8-Hour with an experimental GSX-R1000R, new winglets provide increased downforce at higher speeds, aiding stability and reducing wheelie. Produced in Japan, they are made of dry carbon with a hollow structure, and the size and shape of the winglets were developed through a long process of experimental builds and thorough test runs to achieve the optimum effect without making handling feel heavy. Electronics An updated suite of electronics further enhances the GSX-R1000Rs performance potential and allows riders to tailor its character to suit their preferences or riding conditions. Armed with a six direction IMU, the GSX-R1000R gets an updated traction control system that incorporates Suzukis new Roll Torque Control and anti-wheelie, with 10 modes to choose from plus the ability to disengage entirely. Suzukis Roll Torque Control uses data from the IMU and wheel speed sensors to calculate the bikes lean angle and speed to predetermine what level of power output is optimal. It works in conjunction with the traction control to deliver a sense of stability through the corner. Its benefit is that it works to prevent wheel spin, rather than activate when slip is detected, making for more seamless acceleration and the reduced cutting of power and pumping. Theres a ride-by-wire throttle, bi-directional quickshifter, lean angle-sensitive ABS and slope-dependent control, launch control, low RPM assist, and Suzukis easy start function. A new Li-ion HY battEliiy P-series starter battery is more compact and lightweight, and is designed with a focus on exceptional reliability, durability, enhanced startability, and an extended lifespan. Headlights, positioning lights, and taillights are full LED. Styling Three new colour schemes pay homage to classic GSX-R liveries of old, with a classic blue and white take joined by a red and white version and a yellow and matt blue option. Each features a 40th anniversary decal on the fairing and the fuel tank. A retro R logo adorns the bellypan of all three. There are also GSX-R logos on the seat and exhaust silencer, and the magneto and clutch covers are finished in grey. Pricing and availability The GSX-R1000R will arrive in UK dealerships in the spring of 2026, with pricing to be announced in due course. It will be on display at MCL at the NEC in November. Thu, 31 Jul 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-launches-new-retro-modelsgsx-8t-and-gsx-8tt Suzuki has launched two brand-new models on its award-winning 800cc platform, with the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT combining retro spirit with next generation performance. The 8T takes styling cues from classic bikes of the 1960s and 1970s, such as the iconic Suzuki T500, while the 8TT builds on that platform further but with inspiration coming from the faired race bikes of the period, such as the legendary Yoshimura GS1000 AMA superbike. Both models use Suzukis 776cc parallel twin engine with its 270 crankshaft design, which gives it unrivalled drive and lowdown power, while double overhead cams and four valves per cylinder enable a free-revving nature. The engine is housed in a twin-spar steel frame with a separate lightweight subframe. An electronics suite comprises traction control, power modes, a bi-directional quickshifter, and colour TFT screen. Both the 8T and 8TT get a new fuel tank, seat, seat unit, and handlebars complete with bar-end mirrors. The 8T adopts a new round headlight with full LED lighting, blending modern technology with classic styling. The 8TT adds a headlight cowling that shares more than a passing resemblance to vintage road race machinery from the 70s and 80s. Design The 8T and 8TTs design brief was to produce two machines that embody the retro spirit of Suzukis heritage and iconic models of past decades. Drawn by designers in Italy and further sculpted in Japan, both models use a new 16.5-litre fuel tank, which connects each side to new radiator shrouds brushed silver on the 8T and black on the 8TT adorned with the circular GSX8 logo. The 8T evokes the charm of classic bikes, and a new circular headlight design with a flat bottom section is further reminiscent of motorcycles of the 70s and 80s, though it is full-LED with a bright, horizontal LED strip across the middle. Inspired by classic road race machines, the 8TT retains the same headlight unit as its 8T stablemate but wraps it in a cowling that bears a striking resemblance to the GS1000S of the late 1970s. It is fitted with a screen that further completes the look, as well as providing the functional benefit of added weather protection. New circular bar-end mirrors ensure a sleek and low profile. Their design was refined to ensure visual harmony with the overall silhouette, and special attention was paid to detail, including hand-polishing the parting lines and gate marks of the aluminium die-cast stays. The mirrors offer excellent rearward visibility by minimising interference from the riders body. Underneath the 776cc parallel twin engine, the 8TT also adopts a lower cowling, further enhancing its racier aesthetic. A new seat, inspired by the tuck-and-roll seats of the 1960s and 70s slots onto the top of the subframe of the 8T. It features high-density foam cushioning for enhanced comfort and a premium riding experience. Additionally, the shape of the seat front improves ease of mounting and dismounting and provides excellent foot reach. On the 8TT the seat still ensures a comfortable ride but is finished with a flatter top more reminiscent of race bike seats. With a matt finish to its black seat unit, brushed radiator shrouds, gold forks, and black wheels, the GSX-8T will be available with a Candy Burnt Gold, Metallic Matt Steel Green, or Metallic Matt Black fuel tank. The 8TT adds more pops of colour and retro racing flair thanks to striped decals on its tank and cowling, with matching wheels. A Glass Sparkle Black variant is offset by red wheels and red and gold decals, while a Pearl Matt Shadow Green version is completed with gold wheels and gold and bronze stripes. Engine While retro spirit comes from the styling of the 8T and 8TT, next generation performance is delivered by Suzukis award-winning 776cc parallel twin engine; widely praised for its drive from the bottom end and through its midrange, making it a useable, flexible, and fun powerplant. This character and punchy performance is enhanced by a 270 crankshaft design, helping fire the 8T and 8TT from corner to corner. Peak torque is 78Nm at 6800rpm, and peak power comes in at 82.9PS at 8500rpm. A cross balancer reduces vibrations and aids in the motors compact design, and a short exhaust muffler keeps the bikes side profile clean and compact while still providing an exciting exhaust note. Chassis Both models use the same steel frame and subframe, and aluminium swingarm. They are suspended by upside down KYB forks gold on the 8T and black on the 8TT and a KYB rear shock. Wide, tapered aluminium handlebars provide an engaging and comfortable riding position, offering plenty of leverage for steering input. Stopping power comes via twin 310mm discs up front with radially-mounted Nissin calipers, and a 240mm disc at the rear. Electronics Sat atop the retro headlight is a fully-modern colour TFT screen, displaying all the information the rider needs, including rev counter, speedo, and gear position indicator, as well as the selected traction control setting with three available to choose from, plus off and the chosen power mode from A, B, or C. Making for slick gear changes is a bi-directional quickshifter as standard, plus Suzukis easy-start and low RPM assist systems. Both models also come with a USB Type-C socket as standard, which also supports fast charging. Developed by Eliiy Power using advanced energy storage technology, a new, compact, lightweight battery offers reliability, durability, enhanced startability, and long life with minimal self-discharge. Pricing and availability The GSX-8T and GSX-8TT will come with an OTR price of 9,599 and 9,999 respectively and will be arriving in dealerships in the coming weeks. Both come with Suzukis standard three-year warranty plus up to seven-years extended warranty, activated by regular servicing at an authorised Suzuki dealership.

Both the dual-purpose trail bike, the DR-Z4S, and its supermoto stablemate, the DR-Z4SM, will come with an OTR price of 7,999. Both bikes use a new 398cc single-cylinder engine and a new twin-spar steel frame with a separate, bolt-on aluminium subframe and aluminium swingarm. The DR-Z4S sports 21 and 18 spoked wheels and long-travel suspension from KYB, with 280mm of fork travel, 296mm of rear wheel travel, and 300mm of ground clearance. The SM is equipped with 17 wheels and has 260mm of front suspension travel and 277mm rear wheel travel. An electronics package comprises three power modes and two standard traction control modes, a tailored off-road traction control setting, plus the ability to disengage the system entirely. Theres also the ability to disengage the ABS at the rear or at both ends on the 4S, for more control off-road, and at the rear of the 4SM. Both models channel RM-Z-inspired styling, with the DR-Z4S available in Suzukis trademark off-road yellow as well as dark grey, while the 4SM comes in white and a new blue/grey livery, dubbed Sky Grey. When the bikes arrive in dealerships at the end of the summer buyers will benefit from Suzukis standard three-year warranty and can enjoy the extended seven-year service activated warranty if they have their DR-Z serviced at an authorised Suzuki dealership. Suzuki GBs head of motorcycles, Jonathan Martin, said, These may be spiritual successors to the DR-Z400S and DR-Z400SM, and they take everything that made those bikes so popular such as their robustness and reliability but they build on that foundation and reputation with a brand-new chassis and a new version of our 400cc single cylinder engine. Delivering superior levels of performance in their respective categories was our aim; for instance, ensuring the DR-Z4S is equipped with a suspension package that can take on the roughest of trails and will perform for an experienced rider off-road, while also remaining friendly for a newer rider. Engine capacity remains the same as the previous DR-Z models, but cumulative torque is improved, which in turn gives a linear throttle response and predictable power delivery, important for negotiating tougher trails or picking up the throttle out of corners on the track. Were looking forward to seeing them in dealerships and are sure buyers or those taking a test ride will feel the high quality, impressive performance, but also our commitment to providing value. Both models come with Suzukis standard three-year manufacturer warranty and are eligible for Suzukis extended seven-year warranty through regular servicing.

Wed, 05 Feb 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/all-new-dr-z4s-and-dr-z4sm-set-to-bring-the-fun-in-2025 Suzuki has revealed all-new DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM models, with the covers pulled off the dual sport and supermoto machines today, November 5, at Eicma in Milan, Italy. Spiritual successors to the popular DR-Z400S and DR-Z400SM models of the noughties, the two fresh 400s use a new twin-spar steel frame with a separate, bolt-on aluminium subframe and aluminium swingarm, housing a new 398cc single-cylinder engine. Theres also an electronics package that includes power modes, switchable ABS, and a sophisticated traction control system with off-road modes. Designed to bring the fun to whatever environment, they promise to make Your World, Your Playground. Engine Powering both the DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM is a new 398cc, single-cylinder, liquid cooled, DOHC four-stroke engine. The new engine was designed to meet Euro 5B, while maintaining the reputation of robustness and reliability the engine found in the previous generation DR-Z400 was famed for. It provides a smooth, linear power delivery with stronger torque at lower rpm and increased power output to the rev limit, plus improved fuel economy. When compared to the previous DR-Z400 engine, there are changes to almost every aspect, from lightweight titanium intake valves and hollow, sodium-filled exhaust valves to new cam profiles and piston. A new cylinder head is equipped with twin spark plugs, there are new crankcases, and a new slipper clutch with Suzukis Clutch Assist System. Fuelling comes courtesy of a ride-by-wire, 42mm bore, electronic throttle body and a 10-hole fuel injector. Theres a new air box, and a new exhaust. The result is a broader spread of power across the rev range, strong drive yet smooth ride, a direct, linear throttle response, and improved fuel economy. Peak power is 38PS at 8,000rpm, with a peak torque figure of 37Nm at 6,500rpm. Both achieve over 80mpg. Electronics Both models use a package of carefully selected, ride-enhancing electronic aids; the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System. Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) means riders can choose from one of three power modes. Each mode reaches the same peak power output, with A the most direct, delivering the full amount of low-down torque available from the 398cc single-cylinder engine. Modes B and C are progressively softer, allowing riders to dial back the initial power delivery to suit in slippery or low grip conditions. There are two standard traction control modes on both, with each also equipped with its own specific G (gravel) mode. G mode aims to maintain maximum off-road performance by allowing a certain amount of wheel spin. G modes level intervention is set slower than for the traction control systems other two standard modes, and the maximum level of intervention is also set lower, too. This provides the right balance between preventing excessive wheel spin on slippery surfaces and minimising power loss on surfaces with traction, making the bike easier to control. On the DR-4S it focuses on enabling riders to enjoy off-road riding with confidence. It does so by adopting an updated version of the system when compared with the application on the V-Strom 1050DE and V-Strom 800DE, by being effective not only on flat surfaces but also on undulating terrain and inclines. On DR-Z4SM it is tailored more towards flat-dirt surfaces, while allowing a little more slip tolerance than on the V-Strom DEs. Allowing more spin lets the rider better tap into the models supermoto character. Further enabling greater control off-road is an ABS system that riders can tailor to their needs and riding conditions. On the DR-Z4S riders can disengage the ABS at the rear, or at the front and rear. On the DR-Z4SM, riders can disengage the rear ABS. Theres also Suzukis easy-start system, which means the engine fires up with one press of the starter button, and theres no need to pull the clutch lever when starting in neutral. All rider information is displayed via a compact LCD dash. Chassis A brand new, twin-spar steel frame was developed for the new DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM. It is mated to a new aluminium subframe and an aluminium swingarm. Like the engine, it was designed to build on the previous models reputation for precise, agile handling and easy manoeuvrability. The new chassis is rigid, yet supple, meaning it can absorb impact and bumps on rougher terrain, and reduce rider fatigue. Long-travel suspension on both the DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM comes from KYB, specifically tuned for each models intended application. There is 280mm of front fork travel and 296mm of rear wheel travel on the DR-Z4S, while the DR-Z4SM has 260mm of front suspension travel and 277mm of rear wheel travel. Both have compression and rebound damping adjustment at the front and rear. Theres also preload adjustment on the rear shock. Wheels are wire-spoked on both. The DR-Z4S is fitted with a 21 front and 18 rear, compared to the 17 rims in the DR-Z4SM. IRC GP-410, dual purpose, tubed tyres are standard on the S, while the SM is shod with Dunlop SPORTMAX Q5A tyres. There are disc brakes all round, and the tapered aluminium handlebars are equipped with half-waffle grips which distribute pressure across the palms and make the grips easier to hold, aiding control and greatly reducing rider fatigue. Foot pegs are wide and solid, providing sure-footing and a robustness to withstand impacts off-road. Theres also an aluminium under guard as standard. Ground clearance comes in at a useful 300mm on the DR-Z4S, and 260mm on the DR-Z4SM. Seat heights are 920mm and 890mm and they weigh 151kg and 154kg, respectively. Styling Taking design cues from Suzukis RM-Z range, the new DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM are designed to emphasise agile performance with a linear connection from front to rear. The focus was on establishing a bold horizontal line along the sides that cuts right from the front fender through to the tail. Ergonomics also played a key role in the new design, and the DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM are crafted as to not interfere in any way with the rider and their movement. Lighting all-round is LED, from the single assembly headlight, rear combination lights, and indicators. The DR-Z4S is available in Suzukis signature off-road Champion Yellow, and Solid Iron Grey, both with black rims. The DR-Z4SM comes in a new blue/grey colour scheme, dubbed Sky Grey, plus a Solid Special White, equipped with blue rims. The DR-Z decals on each side of the cowling, in front of the engine, are modern and simple. Following the horizontal line along the cowling, these decals feature a colourful gradation below the lettering that reflects the modern image of the DR-Z. A range of accessories is also available, which includes items such as hand guards, a lower seat, and a rear carrier rack. Pricing and availability Pricing for the new DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM will be confirmed in the New Year, with arrival set for summer, 2025.

Thu, 03 Oct 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/mcn-crowns-suzuki-gsx-8r-sportsbike-of-the-year Motorcycle News has crowned the Suzuki GSX-8R as its Sportsbike of the Year. The 8R collects the award a year after its naked stablemate, the GSX-8S, won the award for Best Naked. The award makes it two awards in two years for Suzukis 776cc parallel twin engine platform, which has won favour with press and customers alike thanks to its punchy power delivery and flexibility. The GSX-8R was heralded as a sublime bit of kit by the world famous motorcycling newspaper, and praised for being cracking fun to ride and for being living proof that sportsbikes can be fun, comfortable and capable, without breaking the bank, as it blends sportiness with everyday usability. Jak Tyrrell, Suzuki GBs senior motorcycle marketing manager, said after collecting the award, Its obviously really pleasing to see the 8R recognised as the great bike it is, but, for us, its also great to see that our latest engine platform is clearly a leading light in the middleweight category, with two MCN awards in two years. The GSX-8R really captured imaginations when it was revealed, and has clearly delivered on its promise to be a sportsbike accessible for all riders. The GSX-8R houses its 776cc engine inside a brand new chassis, with suspension from Showa, including the firms SFF-BP (Separate Function Fork Big Piston) at the front. Radially-mounted Nissin four-piston calipers provide the stopping power.

There are 304 affected machines registered in the UK. Customer safety and satisfaction is Suzuki GBs utmost priority, and owners of affected units will be contacted from today [Friday 26 July] and directed to cease riding activity until replacement tyres have been fitted by an authorised Suzuki dealership. Owners of affected models still equipped with the OE tyres will be able to have their motorcycle collected by their local Suzuki dealership, which will then fit a pair of replacement tyres and return the motorcycle to the customer, allowing them to continue using their machine. In instances where owners have already replaced their OE tyres they will be advised to contact Suzuki GB customer services. Suzuki GB will reimburse them for their outlay on tyres and fitting. Due to the defective rear tyre Suzuki GB is temporarily unable to register any new V-Strom 800DE models. To maintain high levels of customer satisfaction and to reduce the impact on customers, those that have already placed an order for a new machine will be offered a courtesy bike in the interim period, until the recall work has been completed. In all instances, all appropriate costs will be borne by Suzuki GB. The V-Strom 1050DE is unaffected.

On a monthly PCP deal it is also the most affordable of the bunch, thanks to Suzukis current 4.9% APR representative finance offer. The GSX-8R uses the new 776cc parallel twin engine, which propelled the GSX-8S to MCNs Naked Bike of the Year award following its launch in 2023. The torque-laden motor is housed in a steel frame, equipped with Showa suspension front and rear and radial Nissin front calipers. An electronics package comprises a bi-directional quickshifter as standard, plus multiple power and traction control modes, all controlled by intuitive switchgear and a colour TFT screen. Wed, 05 Jun 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-set-to-celebrate-a-quarter-of-a-century-of-legends-at-suzuki-live 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of both the legendary Hayabusa and the cult classic SV650. Both launched in 1999 to do very different jobs, their birthdays will be celebrated at Suzuki Live, which takes place at Cadwell Park on 22-23 June. Suzuki is inviting owners to bring their bikes along to the event, with dedicated parking and display areas in the paddock reserved for Busas and SVs. The show-and-shine style display areas will be sponsored by Dunlop, with a free pair of tyres up for grabs for the owners of the best examples on display. The Hayabusa and SV650 feature areas will form part of a wide range of paddock displays at the event. Suzuki will showcase its current lineup and models from its vintage fleet, there will be a number of Team Classic Suzuki race bikes on display, plus stands from the likes of the Air-Cooled Suzuki Club, the Kettle Club, and the Suzuki Owners Club. Dunlop will have staff on hand to talk tyres and tyre pressures for those riding on circuit, and Furygan will display its latest safety kit. When the track action stops the evening show begins, with live music from The High Rollers, talk shows featuring VIPs such as John Reynolds, Steve Parrish, and Danny Webb, as well as tech talks from Dunlop and Furygan. Food and drink will be available from a variety of on-site vendors. Over the two days there will be track sessions for Suzukis old and new, with sessions scheduled for everything from classic RGs and RGVs to modern GSX-Rs and GSX-Ss. There will also be a host of bikes available to test ride on the surrounding Lincolnshire roads, including the new GSX-S1000GX, the GSX-8R, and the V-Strom 800RE, as well as the third generation Hayabusa. Those interested in the latest V-Strom 800DE and V-Strom 1050DE can enjoy off-road test rides in the SR75 Suzuki V-Strom Experience Zone. Suzuki GB marketing manager Jak Tyrrell commented, Were a little over a month away from Suzuki Live and its set to be the biggest one yet. While there will be plenty of track sessions for those taking part, theres going to be even more to see and do away from the circuit action, starting with the two anniversary display areas. 25 years is a huge milestone for two motorcycling stalwarts: the SV has provided fun, affordable motorcycling for the masses since 1999, has been the first big bike of so many riders, and still fills racing grids at club level. And, still, a quarter of a century later, nothing comes close to a Hayabusa. Its very easy to overuse words like icon or legend, but that is what the Hayabusa is. Suzuki Live takes place on 22-23 June at Cadwell Park. Weekend tickets cost 15 and include access to the whole paddock area, plus free camping.

Fri, 17 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/new-suzuki-gsx-8r-pricing-announced Fresh from its reveal at Eicma in Milan, Italy, earlier this month, Suzuki has announced UK pricing of the new GSX-8R: the new middleweight sportsbike will come with an OTR price of 8,899 when it arrives in dealerships in February. The GSX-8R uses Suzukis new 776cc parallel twin engine, with its 270 crankshaft providing a V-twin-esque feel and soundtrack.

While the main chassis is shared with the GSX-8S, suspension comes from Showa, and there are lower handlebars to provide a sportier riding position, with riders tucked behind the new, GSX-R-inspired full fairing. As standard there is a bi-directional quickshifter, three power modes and three selectable traction control modes, with all information displayed via a 5 colour TFT screen. Fri, 17 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/new-suzuki-gsx-s1000gx-and-gsx-8r-revealed-at-eicma Suzuki has pulled the covers off two more new models for 2024, with the reveal of a new GSX-S1000GX crossover and GSX-8R middleweight sportsbike today at Eicma, in Milan, Italy. With the GSX-S1000GX Suzuki steps into a new segment for the first time, offering a new sports crossover machine with a comprehensive suite of electronics. Electronic suspension from Showa tops a spec sheet that also includes IMU-governed ABS and other braking systems, anti-wheelie, a new Roll Torque Control system, traction control, cruise control, selectable power modes, a bi-directional quickshifter and smartphone connectivity, accessed via a 6.5 colour TFT screen. A 999cc inline four-cylinder delivers an abundance of power and torque throughout the rev range, peaking at 152PS and 106 Nm. With an OTR price of 14,499, first customers can have their bikes by Christmas. Also revealed, the new GSX-8R is the fourth new model to be launched on Suzukis new 776cc parallel twin platform, which features a DOHC and 270 crankshaft design and delivers punchy drive throughout the rev range. New Showa suspension provides more support and increased damping force over the GSX-8S to account for the increased from weight bias and delivers a controlled, sporty ride. Lower handlebars also contribute to a sportier riding position, with more of the riders weight over the front end. The package is wrapped in new, angular, GSX-R-inspired bodywork. There are selectable power modes, traction control, and a bi-directional quickshifter as standard, with all information displayed on a 5 colour TFT dash. GSX-S1000GX With a design and product concept of the ultimate sports crossover, the GSX-S1000GX is set to become the benchmark in the category, as Suzuki moves into the crossover sector of the market for the first time. It boasts Suzukis most sophisticated electronics package to date, with a number of new and innovative systems enabled by a six-axis Bosch IMU and electronic suspension from Showa. The GSX-S1000GX is the first Suzuki to adopt Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES). The GX gets 150mm front and rear suspension travel to create an upright riding position, broadening the riders field of view and providing all-day riding comfort. The longer suspension travel also helps the GX smooth out bumps when riding over uneven surfaces. There are four selectable modes of SAES: hard, medium, soft, and a customisable user setting which offers +/- three increments on the selected base setting of hard, medium, or soft. Further helping smooth out those bumps and undulations is Suzuki Road Adaptive Stabilisation (SRAS). An original Suzuki system, in use for the first time on the new GX, it detects uneven road surfaces based on input from the IMU and wheel speed sensors, and, if required, triggers the Suzuki Floating Ride Control (SFRC) to help smooth out the ride. As part of the SFRC it also adjusts the electronic throttle valve settings to deliver softer, more controllable throttle response. The rear suspensions spring preload settings are also electronically controlled, making it easy for a rider to use a handlebar switch to quickly choose between auto or one of the four available modes they find best suited to their immediate needs or preferences. Riders can select between single rider, single rider plus luggage, or tandem (with or without luggage). In addition, the preload setting for auto mode can be adjusted by +/- three increments and the three manual modes can be adjusted by +/- four increments to match the riders needs more finely. The GSX-S1000GX also uses an alpha version of the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector. SDMS- provides three riding modes: active, basic, comfort. Those three integrated riding modes control power output characteristics, as well as the level of traction control, which, on the GX, is integrated with Lift Limiter (anti-wheelie) and Roll Torque Control, and electronic suspension settings. Riders can opt to use the default settings of many of those systems or customise them to match their needs or preferences more closely. There are seven selectable modes of traction control integrated with Roll Torque Control and Lift Limiter and three selectable throttle maps. Making its debut on the GX is Suzukis new Roll Torque Control. Based on data received from the IMU and wheel speed sensors, this new system calculates the bikes lean angle and speed to predetermine what level of power output and acceleration is optimal at that time, for example, when exciting a corner. It then reduces torque output before the motorcycle exceeds the amount of power the system deems necessary to clear the corner effectively. One key benefit of this system is a smooth operation and uninterrupted drive. With regular traction control the system is reactive, cutting in when rear wheel slip is detected. This can create a jerkiness or on and off feeling as the power comes in and out. It can also cause the rear suspension to compress and rebound. This is reduced significantly with the introduction of Roll Torque Control, as the torque ceiling is set, and then raised as the bike exits the corner and as speed increases and lean angle decreases. It is an extra layer of pre-emptive protection that operates silently in the background, with its settings determined by the level of traction control selected. Completing the GXs comprehensive suite of electronics is a ride-by-wire throttle, bi-directional quickshifter, cruise control updated on the GX to allow the system to continue operating when the rider changes gear lean angle-sensitive ABS, Slope Dependent Control, which prevents rear wheel lift when braking downhill, easy start, and low RPM assist. Monitoring all of the GSX-S1000GXs electronic systems is done via a 6.5-inch colour TFT screen, which also offers smartphone connectivity, allowing riders to access maps, view contacts and make and receive phone calls, see their calendar, and play music. All this is done via the free Suzuki mySPIN app. A USB socket in the side of the instrument cluster makes for easy phone charging. Powering the new GSX-S1000GX is Suzukis creamy smooth, 999cc, inline four-cylinder, superbike-derived engine. Known for its abundance of lowdown and midrange power, it produces 152PS at 11,000rpm and 106 Nm of torque at 9,250rpm. That engine is housed in a twin spar, aluminium frame mated to a race-proven aluminium swingarm from the GSX-R range and a lightweight subframe. All of that is wrapped in new, aggressive bodywork, with full LED lighting front and rear. Hand guards and a spacious luggage rack add extra practicality. Luggage capacity can be increased with genuine accessory 36-litre panniers. With an OTR price of 14,499, the GSX-S1000GX is available to order now, with first customers able to take delivery in time for Christmas. It will come in Suzukis trademark Metallic Triton Blue, Glass Sparkle Black and a new Pearl Matt Shadow Green GSX-8R Immediately highlighting the R element of the new GSX-8R is its full fairing, wind tunnel-tested to increase aerodynamic performance and provide weather protection for the rider. Bold 8R logos adorn the side panels, while fairing-mounted mirrors also aid in reducing drag. Perched in the middle of the angular face is the recognisably GSX series stacked LED headlight, topped by an LED position light. The rear combination light is also full LED, as are the indicators. At the heart of the new GSX-8R is the 776cc parallel twin engine which it shares with the GSX-8S with its long stroke and 270 crankshaft design providing an abundance of low-down torque, usability, and flexibility, while a free-revving nature comes from a DOHC and four valves per cylinder. Peak torque is 78 Nm, delivered at 6800rpm, with peak power of 82.9PS coming at 8500rpm. The 270 crankshaft also provides a power delivery, character, and rumble reminiscent of Suzukis much-lauded V-twin ranges, while a patented cross balancer design ensures a smoothness, as well as aiding in a compact, lightweight engine design. A two-into-one exhaust system with dual-stage catalytic converter keeps the 8R conforming to Euro 5 emissions standards, and ends in a short, underslung silencer further enhancing the compact, slimline look. All of that is housed in a steel frame engineered for direct handling characteristics. Those handling characteristics are further enhanced by low, forged aluminium handlebars that provide positive control and a sporty riding position, placing more of the riders weight over the front wheel. Bolted into the rear of the steel frame is a lightweight aluminium subframe and lightweight aluminium swingarm, Dealing with the increased weight bias towards the front, Showa provides the suspension, with SFF-BP* (Separate Function Fork Big Piston) inverted forks and monoshock in the rear. Mounted radially to the forks are Nissin four-piston calipers, providing stopping power by biting 310mm discs. Tyres are Dunlop Roadsport 2s. Aiding rideability, usability, and flexibility is a suite of electronic systems that includes a bi-directional quickshifter as standard, three selectable engine power modes, and three selectable traction control settings, plus the ability to disengage the system entirely. Theres also Suzukis low RPM assist and easy-start function. The GSX-8Rs settings are easy to navigate via a single rocker switch on the left-hand handlebar, with the information displayed clearly on a colour 5 TFT screen. Three colour options will be available when the GSX-8R arrives in dealerships in early February 2024: Metallic Triton Blue, Metallic Matt Sword Silver and Metallic Matt Black No.2. Tue, 07 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/get-the-right-winter-blues-with-2-9offer-from-suzuki It might be getting colder but Suzuki is making it easier to get the right sort of winter blues by offering 2.9% APR finance on a number of models. Available over four years on both PCP and HP, the offer includes the Hayabusa including the new 25th anniversary edition both the V-Strom 1050 and V-Strom 1050DE, the GSX-S1000, and both the GSX-S1000GT and GT+. Theres also 500 off the GSX-R125 and GSX-S125, plus 750 worth of free accessories available on the V-Strom 1050 and V-Strom 1050DE. All three offers run until 31 January 2024. As a part of the 2.9% finance deal, the flagship, 25th anniversary special edition Hayabusa complete with its legendary 1340cc inline four-cylinder engine, sophisticated electronics package that includes power modes, cornering ABS, traction control, anti-wheelie, a bi-directional quickshifter, multiple engine braking settings, launch control, and cruise control, and striking bodywork can be ridden for 149 per month on a four-year PCP deal, with a 4,210.48 deposit. Or, those looking to cover big miles on a big adventure bike can pick up the V-Strom 1050, with its similarly all encompassing suite of electronics, DR Big-inspired style, and punchy 1037cc V-twin motor, for 109 per month over the same period with a 2,711.30 deposit, while also equipping it with their choice of complementary extras. New riders or those looking for the perfect tool to tackle city congestion and keep running costs to a minimum can also enjoy 500 off the GSX-S125 and GSX-R125. Jonathan Martin, Suzuki GB head of motorcycles, said, The clocks have gone back, the nights have drawn in, and the temperatures have dropped, but its still a good time for riders to put a new Suzuki in the garage for less this winter. We understand that monthly payments remain key for our customers and by offering an incredibly low 2.9% through the winter we believe more customers will take advantage now and not wait until spring to ride away on a new Suzuki.

Wed, 01 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/pricing-and-availability-of-25th-anniversary-hayabusa-announced Suzuki has announced that the special edition Hayabusa, launched to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the legendary hyperbike, is available in dealerships now with an OTR price of 18,599, and will also be available on 2.9% APR finance on PCP or HP. The anniversary edition, launched to celebrate a quarter of a century of an icon after the first generation Hayabusa changed the game in 1999, comes in a head-turning glass blaze orange and glass sparkle black, and with a list of standout features including: special anniversary logo on the fuel tank and laser-etched into the twin exhaust mufflers, gold-anodised brake disc carriers and drive chain adjusters, raised Suzuki lettering on the fuel tank, a standard-fit single seat cowl in addition to the pillion pad, and new gloss black trim. Underneath, it packs the same torque-rich, 1340cc inline four-cylinder engine as the current third generation Hayabusa, which produces more cumulative power and torque than any of its predecessors. Thanks to a heavily redesigned engine for 2021 with new pistons, conrods, crankshaft and camshaft the latest iteration of the Hayabusa is the fastest-launching one yet. Helping that cause is a comprehensive suite of electronics that features three launch control settings, 10 traction control modes, and three power modes, plus lean-angle sensitive ABS, three levels of engine brake settings, cruise control, hill hold, low RPM assist, and easy-start. Launched in 1999 the original Hayabusa stunned the motorcycling world and gave birth to the hypersport category. Taking its name from the Japanese for Peregrine falcon famed for feasting on blackbirds it delivered unrivalled performance, was immediately recognisable thanks to its now-iconic silhouette, and went on to develop cult status. The launch of the second generation Hayabusa in 2008 boosted capacity and power, while a mid-term update in 2013 added Brembo monobloc calipers and ABS. The third generation was launched in 2021, after 200,000 units had been sold worldwide. Suzuki GB head of motorcycles, Jonathan Martin, said, There arent many if any motorcycles that can boast the same sort of history, legacy, and standing that the Hayabusa does. Its not hyperbole to call it an icon, or game-changing, or legendary; it is all of those things. It really is in a class of one, and moving into its 25th year, customers can own a piece of history with this special edition, and to make it even easier to do so were pleased to be able to launch it with a low finance rate of 2.9% on PCP or HP. Mon, 16 Oct 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/new-v-strom-800re-joins-v-strom-800de-to-enhance-suzukis-adventure-bike-lineup Following the launch of its all-new V-Strom 800DE earlier this year, Suzuki has announced a new V-Strom 800RE that will further expand its adventure bike stable, ensuring the V-Strom range is truly ready for any terrain, any horizon, any adventure. Born to roam, the V-Strom 800RE will provide a more road-focussed offering than its more off-road-ready sibling. With DE denoting the V-Strom 800DEs positioning as a dual explorer, the adoption of RE for the latest V-Strom 800 model highlights its abilities as the road explorer. Arriving in November, the new V-Strom 800RE will come with an OTR price of 9,699. At its heart, the new V-Strom 800RE uses the same new 776cc parallel twin engine as its stablemate, with its double overhead cam and 270 crankshaft design delivering a broad spread of torque throughout the rev range peaking at 78Nm at 6800rpm and a rumble and character more akin to Suzukis famed V-twins. Peak power is 84.3PS at 8500rpm. It also uses the same steel main frame, engineered for a balance of straight-line stability and agile handling. The narrow steel tubes also help maximise fuel tank capacity, which comes in at 20 litres. However, the new V-Strom 800RE differs from its more rugged counterpart most notably by swapping 21 and 17 spoked wheels and tubed tyres for 19 and 17 cast aluminium wheels, wearing Dunlop tubeless tyres. Like the V-Strom 800DE, high quality suspension is still provided by Showa, but with a focus on delivering superior on-road performance. 150mm of travel at the front and rear comes courtesy of preload-adjustable inverted front forks and a link-type monoshock adjustable for preload and rebound damping, delivering sure-footed roadholding and a plush ride for long days in the saddle. Stopping power comes from radially-mounted four piston Nissin calipers. Further underlying the V-Strom 800REs prowess as the tool to explore all roads it comes with a seat height of 825mm, while aluminium, rubber-covered footpegs are set 14mm further rearward and 7mm higher than the V-Strom 800DE, and aluminium tapered handlebars are 13mm lower and 23mm further forwards. Theyre also 15mm narrower. A taller and wider screen offers more weather and wind protection on longer rides. Nestled underneath the screen is a 5 colour TFT screen with dual display modes for day and nighttime riding. All the navigation of menus and features is done via a simple, easy-to-use rocker switch on the left-hand handlebar. Theres also a handy USB port located on the left-hand side. Displayed on the bright, clear screen is all the information required by the rider, including the current setting selected from its three-mode traction control system which can also be switched off and the current power mode selected, from Active (the more sportier and direct throttle map), Basic (ideal for cruising or city riding), and Comfort (perfect for wet or cold conditions). There are also two ABS settings, providing differing levels of intervention. A ride-by-wire throttle connection provides a natural feel and connection to the rear wheel, while a standard-fit bi-directional quickshifter allied to a slipper clutch makes gear changes slick and seamless. Theres also Suzukis low rpm assist and easy start function. Sharing a similar DR Big-inspired look as the 800DE, complete with iconic beak and full LED lighting front and rear, the V-Strom 800RE will come in Pearl Vigor Blue, Metallic Matt Steel Green, and Glass Sparkle Black. There will also be a full suite of genuine accessories available including a choice of three-piece aluminium or plastic luggage, heated grips, and a centre stand.

Wed, 12 Apr 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-launches-service-activated-warranty Suzuki has launched a new Service Activated Warranty, which extends a motorcycles warranty period after the initial three years through regular servicing at authorised Suzuki dealerships. The Service Activated Warranty is offered once the motorcycle reaches the end of its manufacturer warranty period of three years, and is booked in for its next scheduled service within the Suzuki Dealer network. This warranty then stays in place until the next qualifying service. It is then simply renewed again, up to a maximum vehicle age of seven years or 70,000 miles, whichever comes first. The Service Activated Warranty is offered to customers completely free of charge. All major components are covered, and should the machine be sold between services and within the seven-year qualifying period, the warranty will simply be transferred to the new owner. The Service Activity Warranty can also be enjoyed by owners of secondhand machines, even if any original warranty has expired and if there is a gap in the service history. Providing the new owner has their motorcycle serviced at a Suzuki dealership and goes through a Suzuki Motorcycle Health Check in the first instance, it will benefit from a fresh, one-year warranty. For these customers, the Service Activated Warranty will begin 30 days from the date the authorised Suzuki Dealer service has been completed. Denis Houston, Director Aftersales at Suzuki GB, said, At Suzuki, customer experience and retention are paramount, the launch of Service Activated Warranty will certainly enhance this for the future, ensuring our customers get the best levels of service, fitment of genuine parts and avail of the expertise within our dealer network rather than going to a non-franchised repairer once their manufacturer warranty expires. Offering Service Activated Warranty is free of charge to owners, is unique, and we are very proud to offer this as a strong message in support of our customers. Mon, 03 Apr 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.marriottmotorcycles.com/suzuki/news/suzuki-gsx-s1000gt-top-selling-sports-tourer-in-2022 While everyones attention turns to a new year, Suzuki is reflecting on a successful 2022 that saw theGSX-S1000GTend the year as the top-selling sports tourer, despite only going on sale in April. Final figures for the year saw 781 bikes registered, with the forecast for more than 1,000 units to be sold before the end of March 2023, which would mark 12 months on sale. Suzuki GB head of motorcycles, Jonathan Martin, said, Of course, were delighted with the popularity and success of the GSX-S1000GT. It was launched to high praise in the autumn of 2021, and we were seeing a huge number of reservations and orders before the bike had even arrived in dealerships. Despite that, and though it presented challenges, we managed to keep up with demand and were on course to top 1,000 sales by the end of its first year on sale, which is a fantastic achievement and something were all pleased with and proud of. The GSX-S1000GT seamlessly blends sports and touring capabilities, with a flexible, torque-laden inline-four cylinder engine producing 152PS peak power and 106Nm of peak torque, making it equally adept at motorway cruising as it is rev chasing on sportier runs. That sportier performance is also enhanced by a bi-directional quickshifter and slipper clutch, while five traction control settings can be used to dial in the desired level of interference, depending on the road and riding conditions. The same is also true for three selectable power modes, while cruise control makes long distance touring a doddle. All of that information, plus smartphone connectivity for calls, messages, and navigation, is displayed via a 6.5, full-colour TFT screen, with day and night modes. Theres a twin-spar aluminium frame, superbike-derived swingarm, and fully-adjustable forks from KYB and a rebound and preload adjustable shock, while angular and aggressive bodywork creates a fresh look for faired Suzuki machinery as well as having the benefits of extensive wind tunnel testing. Available in dealerships now, the best-selling sports tourer can be had for 12,499, while 13,599 gets you the GSX-S1000GT+, which comes complete with two 36-litre panniers as standard. Or, on a four-year PCP deal, the GSX-S1000GT can be ridden away for 149 per month, with a 2,641.55 deposit.

Powered by Suzukis new 776cc, long-stroke, DOHC, parallel twin with a 270 crank, the V-Strom 800DE is born to explore and is equipped with a host of electronic rider aids and chassis features designed to help it tackle the rough stuff, as well as ensure it remains capable and usable on the road, too. Suzukis new powerplant delivers 84.3PS peak power at 8500rpm and 78Nm of peak torque at 6800rpm in the new V-Strom, though riders can choose their preferred power delivery thanks to three selectable engine maps, controlled by a rocker switch on the left handlebar and displayed on a 5-inch colour TFT screen. Also displayed on the dash in the selected traction control mode, with three on-road modes available to choose from and a G mode, for use off-road, that allows more wheelspin, which is suppressed only enough to help prevent excessive slip, so power continues to be delivered to the rear wheel with minimum interruption. It can also be disengaged completely. There are also two ABS settings, providing greater or lesser intervention, plus there is the ability to disengage the rear ABS for improved confidence and control off-road, and a bi-directional quickshifter for seamless gear changes. A new steel frame with bolt-on subframe and aluminium swingarm is suspended by fully-adjustable Showa components providing 220mm of travel and ground clearance. That ground clearance also comes courtesy of 21 and 17-inch wire-spoked wheels, front and back, running tubed Dunlop Trailmax Mixtour tyres. Wide aluminium bars and tough steel footpegs are designed to provide greater control when stood up off-road. All this is wrapped in unmistakable a new, sharper, taughter incarnation of V-Strom stylinge, complete with a DR-Z-esque beak, and comes in the classic yellow that pays homage to Suzukis off-road racing heritage. The V-Strom 800DE is also available in a striking matt grey, with yellow accents, and subtle black, with blue. It will be in dealerships in the spring. Fri, 16 Dec 2022 00:00:00 GMT
