SUZUKI GSX-R750 (2006-2007) Specs, Performance & Photos

The GSX-R750, launched by Suzuki in 2007, came with a redesigned frame, swingarm, and engine for more power delivery and an overall weight reduction.

An ultra-lightweight frame made entirely of aluminum alloy was designed for enhanced rigidity, accuracy, and maximum cornering performance. The swingarm was more rigid and 38 mm longer for better wheel traction. Visually, the GSX-R750 featured a new aggressive and aerodynamic bodywork that gave the bike a new look and also provided a 5 percent increase in aerodynamic efficiency due to the narrower frontal area and the integrated turn signals.

The seating position was revised, with a lower seat height, a smaller fuel tank, and adjustable footpegs that improved control and mobility. Also, the instrument cluster featured a step motor-controlled analog tachometer, LCD speedometer, dual trip meters, clock, and a new gear position indicator.

In the power department, the engine was redesigned for overall weight reduction, better combustion efficiency, and power delivery with lightweight forged aluminum pistons, larger intake and exhaust ports, lightweight titanium valves, and much more.

Jumping into the figures, the 2007 GSX-R750 was taking its thrust from the 749cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a power output of 148 hp at 12,800 rpm and 86 Nm (64 lb-ft) of torque at 11,200 rpm. The model was equipped with a six-speed manual transmission and had a dry weight of 163 kg (359 lbs), which resulted in a top speed of 279 kph (173 mph).
