Suzuki unveiled the GSX-S1000GT sporty tourer for high-speed cruising

From the beginning, the Japanese bike manufacturer decided that it would make the GSX-S1000GT comfortable.

Suzuki equipped the sports-tourer 2 with padded seats, while the riding position is relatively relaxed thanks to a wide rubber handlebar and low aluminum footrests with rubber inserts.

Even the seat height is accessible to all but the shortest adults, 810 mm, and covering long distances would be easy thanks to the 19-liter fuel tank.

Of course, a modern bike can’t do without the latest equipment, and the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT comes with full LED lighting, a 6.5-inch TFT display, smartphone connectivity, 3 riding modes, cruise control, traction control (5 modes) and so on.

Available in metallic reflective blue, metallic Triton blue and glass gleaming black, the Sport Turret is powered by a liquid-cooled 999cc 4-cylinder engine.

Its maximum rated power output is 152 hp, while the engine produces 106 Nm of torque and is mated to a 6-speed transmission with an auxiliary and slip clutch and a bi-directional quick shifter.

A KYB adjustable suspension, consisting of a 43mm inverted front fork and rear shock absorber, provides cushioning, while the front features two 310mm discs mounted with Brembo 4-piston radial calipers and one rotor in the rear, to stop the bike riding on 17-inch wheels.

Suzuki is offering a price of £11,599 (Rs. 11.74 lakh) RRP in the U.K. for the sporty touring specimen, and customers have plenty of accessories, including 9 for luggage, to choose from.
