GSX-S8 is Fully Focused on the Rider
In developing GSX-8S, Suzuki’s engineers looked at creating a motorcycle that is fully focused on the rider. The GSX-8S responds to the demands of riders of varying experience levels looking for the ideal package with approachable riding/body size plus features and specifications that make riding pure joy.
This result is a big step forward with a compact, yet powerful engine, chassis that contributes to straight-line stability, nimble handling, and a winning combination of features to thrill.
The GSX-8S Engine
The GSX-8S has a 776cm3 parallel-twin DOHC engine that delivers a fine balance of smooth, controllable power from low rpm and the pleasant feeling of free-revving performance to the high end.
GSX-8S is ideal for all riders. It offers both excitement and controllability for a manageable ride, so riders can focus on the fun.
This engine introduces Suzuki Cross Balancer, which suppresses vibration for smoother operation and contributes to a lightweight powerplant that is more compact from front to rear.
Finally, the six-speed transmission realizes smooth shifting and improved controllability, and Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) helps reduce fatigue on long rides and contributes to smoother shifting.
Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS)
Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) is a system that better supports the rider in matching performance to the riding conditions, surface, or preferred riding style, resulting in a more pleasurable ride.
- Bi-directional Quick Shift system (with ON/OFF) provides quicker and smoother operation without the need to operate the clutch lever
- Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS) offers 3 modes and allows the rider to match the performance of the bike to the riding conditions
- Ride-by-wire electronic throttle to respond faithfully to the rider’s intentions
- ABS system contributes to more stable braking by helping prevent the wheels from locking up, even under hard braking
- Suzuki Easy Start System starts the engine with one quick press of the starter button
- Low RPM Assist helps maintain engine idle speed for smoother and easier starts
Designed to Maximize Stability, Handling and Excitement
The steel frame developed for the GSX-8S contributes to overall comfort, straight-line stability and nimble handling, letting the rider simply enjoy the ride.
Front Tire
- Dual radial-mount front disc brake calipers act on 30mm discs that provide sure stopping power and controllability.
- KYB inverted front forks deliver a smooth, controllable ride.
Rear Tire
- Dunlop SPORTMAX Roadsport2 tires.
Swingarm
- Uniquely shaped lightweight aluminum swingarm with enhanced torsional rigidity.
Cockpit
- Tapered aluminum handlebars contribute to a comfortable upright riding position.
Chassis
- 14L fuel tank with slim design
- Comfortable, solid sport seat
GSX-8S Electronics
GSX-8S has a host of electronic features to enhance the riding experience. These include:
- Custom 5-inch colour TFT LCD multifunction instrument panel for easy visibility night or day.
- Vertically stacked LED headlights.
Styling
- The advanced styling for the GSX-8S aims to set a trend and usher in a new era of functional beauty, with body work that features flat surfaces and sharp lines to emphasize a compact, slim, well-balanced look.
- The body work is minimized to expose parts such as the engine and seat rails, contributing to the naked look.
Rear Combination Lighting
- Compact LED position lights
- LED rear combination light and LED turn signals
Headlights
GSX-8S also features stacked hexagonal headlights, and LED position lights that are both compact and sharp. Additionally, GSX-8S has the shortest muffler ever mounted on a Suzuki motorcycle and body colours that are fresh and appealing.

STCS - Suzuki Traction Control System
Suzuki’s traction control system continuously monitors front and rear wheel speeds, throttle position sensor, crank position sensor and gear position sensor, and quickly reduces engine output when wheel spin is detected. Engine output is controlled by managing ignition timing and air delivery to ensure smoother traction control operation. As a result, the rider can enjoy more comfortable long-distance riding, with less stress and fatigue.
SDMS - Suzuki Drive Mode Selector
Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) system allows the rider to select one of three fuel injection and ignition system maps (2 maps in the case of GSX-R750/600), adjusting power delivery to suit personal preference in various riding situations, such as different racetracks or tight, twisty roads. Selecting and switching between mode settings is by a switch on the handlebar; the selected mode setting is displayed on the tachometer. The feature helps the rider to enjoy the performance in a wider range of riding situations. * The technology is used in GSX-R1000, 750, 600, DL1050 and Hayabusa.
Easy Start System
On a normal motorcycle when starting the engine, the rider needs to press and hold the starter switch until the engine fires up. With the Suzuki Easy Start, all you need to do is one quick push of the starter switch, just like starting a modern car engine. The ECM recognizes the signals and keeps the starter motor working for a specified time.
Low RPM Assist
Low RPM Assist uses the ISC mechanism to help raise engine rpm slightly in launching and riding at low speed. This feature helps smoother operation when pulling away and when riding at slow speeds, this means it’s easier to pull away and easier to control the engine in stop-start traffic.
BI-DIRECTIONAL QUICK SHIFT SYSTEM
Bi-Directional Quick Shift System lets you shift up or down without the need to operate the clutch or throttle for seamless shifting. When activated, Quick Shift automatically interrupts power delivery just long enough to produce smoother, almost uninterrupted acceleration when you shift up. When decelerating, the system automatically opens the throttle valves just enough to increase rpm and match engine speed to the next-lower gear ratio.
RIDE BY WIRE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE SYSTEM
Not only is this new cable-free system simpler, lighter and more compact than a mechanical throttle, it provides light, natural, linear response to throttle operation. Precision control over throttle valve action, as realized by leveraging the onboard 32-bit ECM, also makes it possible to introduce other advanced systems that enhance riding ease and controllability.
2-Mode ABS
Allows the rider to shift between two levels of ABS intervention. Mode 1 provides minimal intervention, while Mode 2 intervenes more proactively.
