Suzuki Motor USA has revealed its next group of 2024 sport and street motorcycles. The 2024 motorcycle lineup will include the 2024 Suzuki GSX-S1000GT and GT+ high-performance sport-tourers, the 2024 Hayabusa, and the iconic GSX-R1000R, GSX-R1000, and GSX-R600 sportbikes. Street models included are the GSX-S1000 naked sportbike, and the GSX-8S, powered by Suzuki’s latest 776 cc parallel-twin engine platform.
Continuing the strong momentum the V-STROM 800DE has brought to the middleweight adventure category, Suzuki returns with the V-STROM 1050 and 650 range of motorcycles. Each V-STROM has been engineered to deliver versatile, real-world performance, evocative Suzuki ADV styling, and comprehensive features to help riders choose the exact bike they seek within off-road adventure touring, sport-touring, or long-distance touring rides. The last model to round out this on-road wave is the Burgman 400 Scooter.
GSX-S1000GT/GT+ – The 2024 GSX-S1000GT combines the championship performance of its GSX-R1000-based engine with a nimble, lightweight chassis to provide riders with an exciting and comfortable riding experience. The GT and GT+ are Grand Tourers with sportbike-level functionality, avant-garde styling, and an extensive selection of optional equipment like functional, integrated side cases.
For 2024, the GSX-S1000GT+ is presented in the new Candy Daring Red or the ever-popular Glass Sparkle Black, both with unique GT logos that tastefully tie into subframe and wheel colors.
The GSX-S1000GT is the standard for sport touring performance and comfort. The striking and original face of the GT begins with a raked nose, while a pair of horizontally arranged LED headlights, V-shaped position light, sleek mirror design, and side-mounted LED turn signals fashion a unique Grand Touring appearance that is distinctively Suzuki. The GT’s daring styling continues into the optional side cases and touring windshield for a fully integrated appearance.
