In 2013, Suzuki released the GSR750 ABS, a middleweight street bike that featured an aggressive design and an imposing presence with its modern technologies that delivered sharp handling and unmatched performance.

The GSR750 motorcycle was 10 percent more fuel-efficient than the GSR600, despite the fact that it was powered by a 25 percent larger engine and engineered to deliver low-end torque and mid-range power with strong acceleration and a crisp throttle response that resulted in an exciting ride.

The 2013 Suzuki GSR750 ABS featured a unique instrument cluster with adjustable brightness, an easy-to-read analog tachometer, and a large digital LCD speedometer. Also, the LCD display included an average fuel consumption meter, gear position indicator, fuel gauge, and a clock.

As for performance, the bike had its heartbeat set by a 748cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine derived from the GSX-R750 sports bike and delivered an output power of 105 hp at 10,000 rpm and 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm.

With a wet weight of 211 kg (465 lbs) and set in motion by a six-speed manual transmission, the bike reached a top speed of 223 kph (139 mph). The only difference from the base model was the added ABS feature which introduced a new level of road safety and a more reassuring feel to the bike.

In 2013, Suzuki launched the GSR750, a motorcycle that was greeted with a warm welcome, because it filled a gap in a niche that has been neglected by motorcycle manufacturers.

Suzuki understood the customer's aspirations and delivered a naked machine that was not too big and not too small but evil enough for aggressive rides around the track or twisties, yet manageable in the urban environment and still comfortable.

With the legendary GSX-R750 engine as the main source of inspiration, the 2013 GSR750 was also loaded with technologies derived from the racing program refined for street use, such as Kayaba suspensions, top-notch digital and analog instruments, and multiple engine tweaks.

The powerful 748cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine was designed for smooth torque and strong acceleration and featured a Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system that offered better throttle response and low-mid range torque.

As for the power figures, the 2013 Suzuki GSR750 delivered an output power of 105 hp at 10,000 rpm and 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm. The bike was set in motion by a six-speed manual transmission that pushed the bike to a top speed of 223 kph (139 mph).

In the aesthetic department, the model featured a sculpted bodywork with vented front fenders, molded mirrors, textured tank side panels, and an angular tail section with an integrated LED taillight.

Also, it packed a distinctive triangle-shaped muffler with a brushed stainless steel heat shield with a Suzuki Exhaust Tuning (SET) system that increased torque and acceleration in the low-mid rpm range.

In 2012, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Suzuki GSR750 ABS, a motorcycle that retained the evil looks and exhilarating engine character from the base model and introduced an increased road safety feature thanks to its ABS brakes.

The bike was behaving much better on slippery surfaces and under strong braking conditions, which added to the stability and feeling of control when things got rough. Also, the GSX-R-derived engine was revised and delivered more power and torque in the low-rpm range with an instant throttle response.

The combustion efficiency was also improved, with cutting-edge design techniques that reduced the mechanical losses and delivered a 10 percent improvement in fuel efficiency compared to the GSR600 model.

In the performance department, the 748cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled GSX-R750-derived engine provided low-end torque and mid-range power such as 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm and 105 hp at 10,000 rpm. Equipped with a six-speed manual transmission and with a wet weight of 211 kg (465 lbs), the 2012 Suzuki GSR750 ABS reached a top speed of 223 kph (139 mph).

In the aesthetic department, the bike packed a sculpted bodywork with a vented front fender, molded mirrors, a stylish fuel tank, textured tank side covers, and an angular tail section with an integrated LED taillight.

In 2012, Suzuki launched the GSR750, a middleweight street bike powered by a GSX-R750-derived re-tuned engine for more mid-range power that introduced a different breed of naked machines, which combined the winning engine recipe with the sporty unfaired attire of the streetfighter series.

The outcome result was a bike with a strong visual appearance that packed aggressiveness in a comfortable and highly-maneuverable combination. The bike featured strong lines that ran from nose to tail with impressive specifications, such as the unique chassis that incorporated the best qualities of a compact tubular steel frame with the pinpoint accuracy of a twin-spar frame.

The GSX-R-derived engine featured some modifications, such as the revised cam profiles, intake, and exhaust tracts, and also tuned for low-end torque and mid-range power with strong acceleration and unmatched throttle response.

The power came from a 748cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-colled engine fed by a fuel injection system, which produced an output power of 105 hp at 10,000 rpm and 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm. Set in motion by a six-speed manual transmission, the bike reached a top speed of 223 kph (139 mph).

The model packed a sculpted bodywork with a vented front fender, molded mirrors, a stylish fuel tank, textured tank side covers, and an angular tail section with an integrated LED taillight.
