Suzuki confirms new GSX-S1000 prices

Suzuki has officially confirmed prices for the new GSX-S1000 in the UK with the base model costing £8999 and the fully-faired model with ABS costing £9999.

The prices for the new GSX-S1000 have been confirmed a month ahead of its launch to the world’s motorcycling press later in March.

The new GSX-S1000 has an all-new frame that houses an upgraded engine based on the motor from the GSX-R1000 K5 but has been heavily-revised with new internals and cam profiles. There’s also Brembo monobloc calipers from the current GSX-R1000 and three-mode traction control.

The ABS version of the GSX-S1000 has a price of £9499, while pricing has also been confirmed for the GSX-S1000FA, which adds a fairing and will cost £9999.

Suzuki GB Marketing Manager Rob Cooper said: “The GSX-S1000 and GSX-S1000FA both offer an exciting package, with new chassis components all wrapped around a popular, proven engine. We’re confident that both models will be highly competitive against other bikes in this sector of the market in terms of both spec and price.”

The new GSX-S1000 is expected in dealerships from June. Customers can register their interest in taking a test ride at www.suzuki-gb.co.uk.
