2024 Suzuki GSX-8S

The 2024 Suzuki GSX-8S is a highly praised middleweight naked bike that delivers an exceptional balance of punchy torque, smooth power, and premium standard electronics. Built around Suzuki's innovative 776cc parallel-twin engine, it excels as an urban commuter and a spirited canyon carver, though it trades some top-end screaming performance for mid-range usability. The heart of the bike is an all-new 776cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine featuring a 270-degree firing order, which gives it an aggressive V-twin-like exhaust note and power delivery. Power Output: It produces 82–83 horsepower at 8,500 RPM and 57.5 lb-ft of torque at 6,800 RPM. Suzuki Cross Balancer: This patented twin-counterbalancer system drastically minimizes engine harshness while keeping the motor incredibly slim and compact. Real-World Grunt: Reviewers find the bike incredibly "punchy" and engaging around town and on two-lane twisties, pulling hard and smooth straight from a stop sign. While it weighs a bit more than some rivals (like the Honda Hornet) at 445 lbs wet, the extra length and engineering give it superb stability. Planted Cornering: It utilizes an upside-down KYB front fork and a preload-adjustable rear monoshock. Though non-adjustable at the front, the suspension is highly praised for feeling incredibly confidence-inspiring and planted through corners. Ergonomics: It features a highly approachable 810mm seat height paired with a short reach to the handlebars, resulting in a neutral, comfortable riding position. , Braking: Stopping power is excellent, handled by dual 310mm front discs clamped by radial 4-piston Nissin calipers. Despite its budget-friendly market position, Suzuki includes a robust electronics package as standard equipment: [1, 2] Bidirectional Quickshifter: Seamless, clutchless up and downshifts come standard. Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS): Offers three active maps (A, B, and C). Mode A delivers immediate, sharp throttle response, while B and C smooth out the torque curve for rain or casual commuting. Traction Control & ABS: Features 3 levels of traction control (which can be turned completely off) alongside standard ABS. 5-Inch TFT Display: Universally celebrated by testers as one of the cleanest, clearest, and most legible dashboards in the class. This bike, like all our bikes will be fully serviced, inspected and detailed at the time you take delivery.
