[faster and faster] - 2017 Suzuki GSX-R1000, GSX-R1000R unveiled at Intermot
Ending many years of GSX-R1000 stagnation, Suzuki have, this year, unveiled not just one but two new big-bore Gixxers at the Intermot - the GSX-R1000 and the higher-spec GSX-R1000R, both of which feature new styling and colours, a new aluminium beam chassis, new swingarm and an all-new inline-four engine. For the first time, the GSX-R1000 also gets a host of electronic rider aids, including a three-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) that works in tandem with ABS and a 10-mode traction control system. The 2017 GSX0R1000's new 999.8cc inline-four produces 199 horsepower at 13,200rpm. The engine gets Suzuki's variable valve timing system (SR-VVT) and a new finger-follower valve train, which makes for strong low- and mid-range power delivery, while the VVT system boosts top end power. Suzuki’s SR-VVT is a compact and lightweight mechanical system that is built into the intake sprocket and is activated by centrifugal force, while the new finger-follower valve train is 6g lighter than a conventional bucket/tappet system, and allows the engine to rev higher and increases top-end power, with improved reliability. For improved corner-carving prowess, the new Suzuki GSX-R1000 engine's cylinder block incline angle is moved back by 6 degrees, reducing the engine length by 22.2mm, the benefits of which are increased front-end feel and increased stability. Inside the engine there are new pistons, pins, rings, camshafts and titanium valves for higher peak power. And a brand-new electronics package, including a six-directional IMU, 10-mode traction control system and three-rider modes keep things mangeable even in tricky riding conditions.
