Suzuki's All-New Superbike Gains Muscle, Loses Fat

From Basem Wasef, About.com

The all-new 2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000 (priced at $12,899) gets its first major redesign since 2001.

Features include:

  • An all-new 999cc inline-4 cylinder powerplant that produces more horsepower and torque, improved throttle response, and reduced emissions
  • An aluminum alloy swingarm that's arched to accommodate twin titanium exhaust pipes
  • A new chassis with a shorter wheelbase and longer swingarm for improved handling
  • New radially mounted mono-block front brakes with fully-floating 310mm drilled discs
  • New Showa BPF (Big Piston Forks) with rebound and compression valving adjustment screws on the fork caps
  • Repositioned S-DMS controls for more convenient adjustment
  • Redesigned bodywork with less graphics than the 2008 model
