Suzuki has gone hard on the styling changes, giving the GSX-S a new look with stacked LED lighting on the front and a reshaped seat and larger gas tank.

Beneath the bodywork sits the same GSX-R1000 K5-inspired motor that’s always been present in the GSX-S, with Suzuki fitting a new Euro5-compliant exhaust, new camshafts, valve springs and fuel injection system, a new airbox and the model now receives the Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS, basically a slipper clutch) for smoother deceleration and better control when downshifting.
