With the new shorter, twin-pillar cast cradle frame, mated to a new longer, arched swing-arm made of three castings, the new bike offers better performance racetrack with wheelbase shortened by 10mm.
Equipped with Showa’s new Big Piston Forks (BPF) with endurance race proven design, these, combined with a new rear shock absorber that features high and low-speed compression damping, offer superb feedback and response with reduced weight too. The new lightweight, race-proven mono-block forged radial calipers, mated to fully-floating 310mm discs offer superb stopping power.
With a unique engine and chassis package, the aggressive aesthetics and rider controls top-off the flagship GSX-R.
