Suzuki has revealed the 40th Anniversary Edition of the GSX-R1000R, featuring a Euro 5+ compliant engine and updated electronics, while celebrating 40 years of GSX-R legacy. Visually, the 40th Anniversary Edition stands out with three striking, retro-inspired paint schemes – Blue/White, Red/White, and Yellow/Matt Blue. All three feature a special 40th anniversary decal on the fairing and fuel tank, a retro ‘R’ logo on the belly pan, and GSX-R branding on the seat and exhaust. The clutch and magneto covers are finished in grey, while the exhaust silencer and wheels also get subtle cosmetic detailing to mark the occasion.
The GSX-R1000R continues to be powered by a 1000cc, liquid cooled, inline four-cylinder engine that produces 195hp and 110Nm but now meets Euro5+ norms thanks to substantial internal changes.
The MotoGP-derived variable valve timing system has been retained, as has the finger-follower valve train— though with optimised shapes. The secondary injector now features 8 holes instead of 10, helping meet emission targets without compromising on performance.
The chassis remains unchanged, with the twin-spar aluminium frame. Suspension comes courtesy of Showa with an USD fork and monoshock, and an electronically-controlled steering damper.
It remains to be seen if Suzuki India will bring the 40th Anniversary Edition GSX-R1000R to our shores.
