it has the same alloy beam frame as the gsx s1000 and the preceding gsx s1000f inverted 43
millimeters kyb forks and brembo radial calipers up front as the gsx s1000 the biggest difference
is at the back where a new bolt-on seat subframe sits beneath totally redesigned tail bodywork
providing greater baggage and passenger carrying capacity than the bare gsxs another emphasis of
the suzuki upgrades is electronics and the gt gets a new 6.5 inch color tft dash the first suzuki to

and preferences as well as a bi-directional quick shifter as standard the gt also has
cruise control and low rpm assist which helps minimize embarrassing stalls while starting up
dsx s 1000 gt styling while the design isn't for everyone it's a more modern look than the
previous gsx s1000f with sharp creases and angles replacing the curves and bulges of its predecessor
neither bike is gorgeous but the new gt is more in line with contemporary trends
even though gas tank area is carried over from the naked gsx s1000 the gt has the all front
fairing and a longer more comfy seat modern lead headlights are positioned abnormally far forward
in the front directly on the leading edge of the nose and are encircled by black plastic
from certain perspectives the effect is comparable to that of the current yamaha one
where the lights are hardly noticeable and the front has a waist style appearance
but from others the suzuki's headlights which sit behind angkor looking slanted eyebrows of
lead strip marker lights look a bit odd uk and us pricing the price of the 2022 gsx s 1000 gt
in europe will be 11 599 pounds sterling which is virtually equal to the kawasaki's
and the bike will arrive at european dealers in november as a 2022 model year machine
no price has been announced for the us versions as of yet but when the gt arrives to u.s suzuki
dealers in early 2022 it's expected to cost around the same as the ninja's 12 599 msrp
the gt is 11 kilos 24 pounds heavier than the model it replaces indicating its more serious
touring ambitions and the redesigned subframe permits the attachment of quick release panniers
which are optional on the gt but standard on the gt plus at least in the states it's still lighter
than its closest competition the kawasaki ninja 1000 sx which weighs 514 pounds and it's more
powerful thanks internet friends for watching hope you enjoyed the movie about the 2022 gsx s 1000 gt
