It’s been a long wait, but now Australian pricing has been revealed with the GSX-R1000 available from $21,990 plus on road costs from late June.

All-new for 2017 the 6th generation GSX-R1000 redefines the definition of “Superbike”. It embodies the life work and professional ambition of Suzuki engineers who are extremely passionate about the GSX-R brand and its place in motorcycle history. A team who love riding and racing, enthusiasts who were determined to restore the GSX-R1000 to its rightful place as top dog.

Put simply, it is the most powerful, hardest-accelerating, cleanest-running GSX-R ever built. It is also the most compact, the most aerodynamic and the best-handling GSX-R1000 ever, with smoother throttle response and better combustion efficiency.

The up-spec GSX-R1000R model will be available from October for $25,490 plus on road costs, or for an MSRP of $27,490 ride away

Above all, it is a GSX-R. By definition, it is built to perform and be reliable, and designed to help make riders, better riders. It has been engineered using the experience gained during 30 years of domination in production-based Superbike, Superstock and Endurance races worldwide, combined with new proprietary technology developed in the MotoGP World Championship.

Available in two versions, the standard GSX-R1000 and the limited-production GSX-R1000R. Both versions come fully equipped for the street, but remove the mirrors, the registration plate and tape-up the lights and they’re also ready for closed-course dominance.
