In 2001 the Suzuki motor company launched a performance motorcycle which blew the opposition out of the water. The Suzuki GSXR 1000 was a bigger engined addition to the already existing GSXR range, comprising of 750cc and 600cc models. The new "gixxer thousand" as it became known boasted a 998cc engine and produced 161 brake horse power at top revs which was a whole 10bhp more than its rivals from Honda and Yamaha.
However it was not just the power of the engine which made the GSXR 1000 such a legendary motorcycle. The bike was light in weight with excellent braking systems and this made the bike's handling superbly responsive. The frame of the larger GSXR was slightly different to that of its siblings. The aluminium frame was largely unchanged but the beams sported slightly thicker outside walls and an extra engine mount. The fairing too was strikingly similar to that of the GSXR 750 or 600. The GSXR 1000 however was easily distinguishable due to the gold finished, titanium coated, upside down forks and the six piston front brake calipers. The rear wheel was also slightly larger.
