Description

GSX-R 750 is a sports motorcycle family of Suzuki that features 750 cc. When the bike was introduced, it became very popular as a powerful yet affordable machine for roads.

A Brief History and Description

GSX-R 750 debuted in 1984 at the Cologne Motorcycle Show. When the machine appeared available for sale in the next year, it became the foundation for modern sportbikes. It featured lightweight frames and high power, which contributed to its victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

While Suzuki remained the original concept, it kept improving the GSX-R 750. The initial bike came with an aluminum frame, 460-mm front/rear tires, and twin discs. In order to save some weight, the designers of Suzuki provided GSX-R 750 with an air/oil-cooled engine instead of a liquid-cooled engine. The model produced from 1986 had a one-piece seat.

GSX-R 750 allows enjoying the combination of race-winning heritage, great performance, comfortable handling, as well as compact size and low weight.

The models that featured air/oil-cooled systems were produced by Suzuki until 1991, and they are divided into the 1st generation (1985-1985, came with the flat body) and 2nd generations (1988-1991, featured slingshot carburetors).

Water-cooked versions of the GSX-R 750 were produced by Suzuki from 1992 to 1995. Except for the new cooking system, the machines also came with redesigned bodywork, frame, suspension, and other details.

The SRAD, which stands for Suzuki Ram Air Direct, were included in all GSX-R 750 models produced from 1996. The machines made from 2011 to 2017 feature sleek body design, new headlight, and a Showa BPF. They were about 9 kg lighter than the Suzuki machine produced before 2011.

The 2018 GSX-R 750 allows using ABS, features the same powerful 750cc engine, and weighs 419 kg. Generally, this Suzuki model still remains a supersport gem.
