Additional Features

• The custom-designed ignition key features the GSX-R 40th anniversary logo presented on the black handle.

Advanced Electronics Feature

• For 2027, Suzuki has fitted the latest, lightweight, and precise Bosch Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) on the GSX-R1000R. The IMU provides six-direction, three-axis, motion, and position information to the ECM, so instantaneous adjustments are made electronically to the engine and chassis components that influence performance.
• The Suzuki Bi-directional Quick Shift System lets GSX-R1000R racers shift faster than ever. By manipulating ignition timing on upshifts and the electronic throttle bodies on downshifts, clutchless shifting helps deliver faster and more consistent lap times.
• Updated for 2027, the Suzuki Launch Control System’s calibration provides GSX-R1000R riders a competitive advantage when launching their motorcycle at the start of the race. This system modulates engine power so the rider can concentrate on clutch operation.
• Roll Torque Control is an intelligent system that, based on data received from the IMU and wheel speed sensors, calculates the bike’s lean angle and speed to predetermine what level of power output is optimal for a given corner. It works in conjunction with traction control to help deliver a sense of stability through the corner.
• The Motion Track Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)** brings additional control to anti-lock braking. Like a conventional ABS system, the Motion Track Brake System provides the appropriate amount of braking force for the available traction. When the IMU detects the rear wheel lifting from extreme braking forces, the ABS control module will adjust the front brake pressure to reduce the rear wheel lift. If the IMU senses the motorcycle is leaned over when the brakes are used, the ABS unit will adjust the brake pressure to an optimal amount to help maintain braking force and tire grip. (**Depending on road surface conditions, such as wet, loose, or uneven roads, braking distance for an ABS-equipped vehicle may be longer than for a vehicle not equipped with ABS. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please ride carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.)
• The GSX-R1000R adopts Lift Limiter, which brings added peace of mind to riders by helping prevent the front wheel from lifting off the ground when accelerating. Lift Limiter world silently in the background, with its settings being determined by the STCS level setting.

Body & Styling Features

• For 2027, the body colors match the prestigious history of the GSX-R. In keeping with the 40th anniversary theme, these body colors was chosen that feature schemes used on famous racing liveries of memorable winning GSX-R race machines from the past.
• 40th anniversary decals add a special highlight to the sides of the fairing, while bold “R” decals adorn the under cowl.
• The engine covers are changed from a black to a gray finish.
• A 40th anniversary emblem adorns the top of the fuel tank. The fuel tank cap and mounting ring are blacked-out to match the emblem.
• The GSX-R logo is embossed into the rear section of the rider’s seat.
• The front brake rotor carriers are gold-anodized, matching the fork’s outer tubes and BFF-canister mounted to each axle holder.
• The GSX-R graphic features on the muffler body. The logo is shiny silver which tastefully contrasts against the media-blasted appearance of the muffler’s titanium outer sleeve.

Chassis Features

• Light and compact, the twin-spar aluminum frame has adjustable swingarm pivots to help racers tune the chassis. The gold-anodized Showa® BFF fork and rear suspension components deliver extraordinary damping control while the lean-sensitive, ABS** system monitors the Brembo® four-piston, front brake calipers that are fed by stainless steel hoses.
• The GSX-R1000R’s swingarm pivot features an adjustable location so the chassis can be better tuned for competition use (please use the standard position for street riding).
• The Show® a Balance Free Front Fork (BFF) uses race-level technology to bring excellent damping force responsiveness not seen before in a supersport motorcycle. This suspension’s design controls damping force outside of the spring chamber, so the fork precisely maintains consistent damping regardless of its stroking action. With the BFF the rider enjoys an unparalleled level of surface feedback and ride compliance.
• The GSX-R1000R is also fitted with a lightweight, race-ready upper triple clamp in conjunction with the BFF.
• Racetrack-developed links connect the single Showa® Balance Free Rear Cushion Light (BFRC-lite) shock to the braced swingarm. The BFRC-lite’s innovative design controls damping force outside of the shock body to not only control how the suspension strokes but helps smooth its reaction over bumpy surfaces or when the chassis is pitched during braking. This produces a superb level of response in a racetrack environment and sets a standard for rider feedback and comfort during street riding.
• The GSX-R1000R comes with track-day-ready Bridgestone® Racing Street RS11 low-mass tires. The tires’ tread pattern reduces wear and maximizing sport performance and contact feel.

Electrical Features

Engine Features

• Updated for 2027, the high-performance 999.8cm3 four-stroke liquid-cooled DOHC inline-four engine retains the same level of drivability and reliability, while producing torque in even more linear fashion.
• Crankcases and a crankshaft with larger diameter journals to support higher engine output and increase durability. A cylinder head features modified intake and exhaust ports to achieve higher efficiency. To match the cylinder head, a head gasket design is used.
• The intake and exhaust camshaft valve lift and timing were optimized to realize engine output goals and help gain compliance with emissions regulations (EPA, CARB and Euro 5+). The camshafts’ maximum lift has not been changed, but the overlap has been reduced.
• Complementing the four primary fuel injectors in the throttle bodies are four Suzuki Top Feed Injectors (S-TFI) that spray fuel from the top of the airbox directly into the intake funnels. For 2027, the S-TFI injectors are updated to an eight-hole from a ten-hole design which helps result in higher peak power, more efficient combustion, and more precise fueling control.
• Additionally, a wider cam chain helps reduce frictional loss, (especially significant when using low viscosity oil in sprint or endurance races), plus the cam chain drive and driven sprockets design have been changed to match.
• A intermittent lubrication scheme is employed to precisely lubricate the camshafts with a specific amount of oil. This aids in ensuring lubrication in other sections of the engine and can help reduce losses due to oil windage.
• The proprietary Suzuki Racing Variable Valve Timing System (SR-VVT) uses a centrifugal actuated mechanism on the intake camshaft sprocket that increases high engine rpm power without losing low- to mid-range power.
• Revised for 2027, a change to piston heads to accommodate larger valves helps raise the compression ratio to 13.8:1 from 13.2:1 to aid power production. Matching other changes, the 2027 model’s cylinder head’s combustion chamber design continues to minimize heat production.
• The 4-2-1 exhaust system is for the 2027 GSX-R1000R to help the engine deliver a wide range of performance with an exciting rush up to the red line. The position of the exhaust collector is moved closer to the engine to aid in mass centralization while also helping the catalytic converter’s “warm up” which aid flow and a reduction of exhaust emissions.
• The media-blasted titanium muffler with muted GSX-R logo enhances the exhaust system’s appearance and is mounted high for good ground clearance at high lean angles while creating an exciting, distinctive sound. The exhaust’s layout helps reduce the muffler size from 8.3 L to 5.5 L but retains the same performance as the prior system.
