Suzuki’s new street fighter weighs in at 183 kilograms and, at just 785mm, has a lower seat height than its competition.

The aluminium-alloy frame and swingarm are both built using advanced alloy production technology resulting in main frame spars with a seamless surface.

Fitted with KYB front forks with 43mm stanchion tubes, spring preload can be easily adjustable to match rider and passenger weight.

Working through an advanced progressive link suspension system, the single rear shock has adjustable spring preload and rebound damping. Delivering exceptional, all-day rider comfort, the newly designed seat blends with the slim side covers for the rider to put a foot down more easily when stopped.

Braking with extreme confidence, the GSR600 features fully floating, dual, 310mm front discs with four-piston calipers and a 240mm rear disc with a single-piston caliper.

With a three-spoke, spiral layout, the 17-inch cast-aluminium-alloy wheels are fitted with a 120/70-17 front tyre and 180/55-17 on the rear.

Wrapping around the centre-mounted muffler, the GSR600’s unique tail-section carries dual LED taillights with innovative, new indicators both front and rear.

The instrument panel includes an analogue tachometer, digital speedometer and LCD digital gear position indicator, while the ignition switch is conveniently located behind the upper triple clamp.
