SUZUKIGSX-R1000 2011 - 2012

　　In 2012, Suzuki launched the GSX-R1000, a superbike motorcycle that got a lot better with elements gathered from Suzuki’s global race teams and on-track success. The 2012 model featured a redesigned engine, chassis, suspension, and bodywork to become a more dominant superbike than ever.

　　The upgraded model featured new materials for a lighter, better-revving engine with increased compression. At the same time, the GSX-R1000 received radial Brembo brakes with two 310 mm discs and two Brembo monoblocks with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc on the rear wheel.

　　The model featured enhanced maneuverability thanks to the weight-reduced front tire and axle, which offered superior weight advantages.

　　Also, the bike received a new ECM for top-drawer engine management, three engine mappings, clear lens turn signals, and a host of other minute tweaks imported from the MotoGP and Endurance World Championship.

　　In the power department, the 2012 Suzuki GSX-R1000 was taking its thrust from the 999cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a power output of 182 hp with a peak at 12,000 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) of torque available at 10,000 rpm.

　　The massive power crafted by the engine, combined with a six-speed manual transmission and a wet weight of 203 kg (448 lbs), knocked down the speed camera when it passed it with a top speed of 299 kph (186 mph).
