For the model year of 2001 Suzuki introduced a new GSX-R model that replaced the largest and most powerful of the racing replica family, GSX-R1100. As the model name reveals, the engine's cylinder displacement was 100 cc smaller than its predecessor but the new 988 cc engine was more than adequate to give the GSX-R1000 enormous prestanda. It delivers 160 bhp at 11,000 rpm and the bike was capable of making a quarter mile in under 10 seconds. The GSX-R1000 is light,
powerful and more balanced than any other street legal race replica
and even many racing bikes! Naturally there's models that are
more suitable for touring and commuting but if you are looking
for a really fast bike that you like to use both on track and
on the road, then look no further. The GSX-R1000 is the bike for
you. It's the best bike in its class. The
new GSX-R1000 was voted as the best Internation Bike Of The Year
in 2001 by 13 bike magazines from all over the world. The GSX-R750
won the award in 1997.
2002 Suzuki year code: K2 There was no need to make any significant improvements for an already potent motorcycle for the second model year. New graphics and and uncoated exhaust pipe were the biggest changes for the 2002 year's GSX-R1000. Colors
available: Blue/White, Red/Black. 2003 Suzuki year code: K3 After the GSX-R1000 had been two years on the roads and and race tracks Suzuki put out an even better version of the model in late September of 2002. Suzuki engineers had been working on the three things that make a fast bike faster — weight, power and handling. The 2003 year's GSX-R1000 is improved in all three counts. It weigh less, has even more more power/torque and even better handling. The
physical dimensions of the bike are almost identical with the previous
year's model. The seat height and the overall height are somewhat
lower but the geometry of the bike is exactly the same as before.
The already rigid aluminum allow frame is newly designed and enforced
with internal ribs. The frame as well as the wheels were now coated
black. The headlights of the 2003 year's GSX-R1000 are mounted vertically to enable the ram-air intakes in the front to be placed 20 mm nearer the bike's center line. The new design makes the GSX-R1000 look a bit like the Hayabusa. Even the instruments are redesigned. The cylinder displacement of the engine remains the same 988 cc but more power and torque and better throttel responce has been achieved by adding four ventilation holes between the cylinders to equalize crankcase pressure beneath the pistons, moving the air intake nearer to the centerline and upgrading the engine management system to a 32-bit CPU that monitors and controls the engine functions, input from the rider and the exhaust tuning valve. The
entire exhaust system is now entirely made of titanium to save additional
weight (600 g or 1.32 lbs) and the tail light is replaced with led
type to give a more hi-tech look. Colors
available: Blue/white, Silver, Black/Orange.

2004 Suzuki year code: K4 As for most of the Suzuki motorcycles for 2004, even the GSX-R1000 received the classic Suzuki ”S” logo on the fuel tank, instead of the whole brand name. New graphics. A new Mat Mladin Championship Replica Edition commemorating for AMA Superbike championships also available in the US. A Limited Edition Black version can be found at least in Finland. Colors
available: Blue/white, Black/Gray, Mladin Replica Blue/White, Limited
Black.
2005 Suzuki year code: K5 The
2005-year's GSX-R1000 K5 has redesigned engine and chassis. It has
2 kg (4.4 lbs.) lower mass than the K4 and the engine has 11cc larger
piston displacement, now producing 170 hp. It has a totally new
frame reducing the total length of the bike by 4 cm (1.6 in.) but
reducing its wheelbase only marginally (0.5 mm/ 0.02 in.). New brakes
(radial mounted calipers and 310 mm discs at the front). The new
catalytic eye-catching titanium silencer is said to be designed
to reduce turbulence to minimum. Larger displacement 998.6cc 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine for increased power, torque and acceleration - includes several features to reduce friction and reciprocating mass Improved
electronic fuel injection system features the Suzuki Dual Throttle
Valve System (SDTV) - maintains optimum air velocity in the intake
tract for smooth low-to-mid rpm throttle response and high torque
output - includes Auto Fast Idle System (AFIS) Larger
trapezoidal-shaped radiator improves cooling capacity 17% without
increasing frontal area, plus new compact cooling fan design further
