To the team of Suzuki Engine: ers responsible for the GSX-R1000, Own The Racetrack is not just a slogan,it is a way of life. It’s a life dedicated to making the most successful open-class motorcycle in the history of production-basedracing even better. The key is the motorcycle’s ability to do precisely what the rider wants, when the riderwants, how the rider wants. Accelerate, brake, corner, repeat. Make it easier for the rider, and the resultswill show. Once again Suzuki has raised the level of open class sportbike performance. The 2007 Suzuki GSX-R1000,it’s the reason why Suzuki riders Own The Racetrack.

The basic architecture of the compact 999cc liquid-cooled GSX-R1000 Engine: is well known, a model ofrace-winning design: Bore and stroke of 73.4mm x 59.0mm, forged aluminum-alloy pistons with shortskirts and cut away sides, chrome-moly steel shotpeened connecting rods, hollow dual overhead cams,and lightWeight: titanium valves. Add to that a close-ratio six-speed transmission with staggeredtransmission shafts, an adjustable back-torque limiting clutch and a gear driven secondary balancershaft for reduced vibration. A new more compact Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve fuel injection system is in place for 2007 with 12 smallerholes instead of four for improved fuel atomization and because the injectors are more compact and emita finer spray, the secondary injectors can be positioned at a steeper 30 degree angle aimed directly at theintake ports for improved throttle response. Intake and exhaust ports are re-shaped and eight percent largerand exhaust valves are 2mm larger (26mm vs 24mm) to work with more aggressive camshafts and Iridiumspark plugs are used for optimum combustion and longer life. Also a new Idle Speed Control (ISC) systemimproves cold starting and stabilizes Engine: idle under various conditions and larger ventilation holesbetween cylinders reduces pumping losses. The Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) features equal length head pipes feeding a collector, a shortmid-pipe and a unique under Engine: chamber that leads to two short aluminum and titanium mufflerson each side. This system nearly doubles exhaust internal volume while lowering the center of gravity,centralizes the mass and improving aerodynamics.
