PurposeBuilt primarily for track days and spirited sport riding, where its power, chassis, and brakes can be fully exploited.
Rider FitThe low, forward-leaning riding position and tall seat height demand good flexibility, core strength, and wrist tolerance for anything beyond short rides.
CharacterA razor-sharp, race-bred superbike with explosive top-end power and precise, aluminum-framed handling.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for new riders, commuters seeking comfort, or anyone planning long-distance touring or off-road use.

2014 Suzuki GSX-R1000 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Suzuki GSX-R1000, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.

⚠ Safety Recalls (1)

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION Oct 2014 · 14V629000

Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. (Suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 GSX-R750 and 2009-2014 GSX-R1000 motorcycles. If a gear is missed while upshifting, the strain applied to the drive chain after the next shift may cause the rear axle to move, damaging the left-side drive chain adjuster.

Risk: If the drive chain adjuster gets damaged, the drive chain may come off, removing power to the rear wheel, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left-side chain adjuster with an improved part. The recall began on October 17, 2014. Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-572-1490. Suzuki's numbers for this recall are 2A40, 2A41, 2A42 and 2A43.
