Suzuki Japan has launched the 2020 Suzuki GSX-R1000R in the country. The Japanese brand had unveiled the drop-dead gorgeous 2020 Suzuki MotoGP livery back in February this year. On March 15, 2020, in celebration of its 100th anniversary, the brand draped the 2020 GSX-R1000R with the new livery, christened the ‘100th Anniversary Colour’ edition. The standard Triton Blue Metallic and the Matte Black Metallic No. 2 colour variants also get subtle tweaks in the colour scheme for a refreshed appearance.Fortunately, all the colour variants are priced at JPY 1,960,000 (excluding taxes). This translates to around Rs 13.70 lakh. The 999cc inline-four liquid-cooled engine produces a healthy 197PS at 13,200rpm and 117Nm at 10,800rpm. In comparison, the UK-spec 2020 Suzuki GSX-R1000R produces 202PS at 13,200rpm and 117.6Nm at 10,800rpm.
The engine is enhanced by Suzuki Racing Variable Valve Timing (SR-VVT), which is similar to the VVA system in the Yamaha R15 V3. It helps in maintaining a good balance of low-end grunt and top-end drive. Electronic aids include a 6-axis IMU with three riding modes, 10-level traction control system, bidirectional quickshifter, launch control, and even a low-rpm assist. For those who are keen to know the mileage, it offers 16.6kmpl under the WMTC cycle.As expected, you get properly premium underpinnings such as fully adjustable Showa BFF (Balance Free Frontfork) and a linked adjustable ShowaBFRC lite (Balance Free Rear Cushion lite) rear suspension. Braking is via Brembo dual 320mm rotors up front and a 220mm disc at the rear, with cornering ABS.The motorcycle will be available in Japan from July 30. Suzuki Japan says the 2020 GSX-R1000R is compliant with 2016 domestic regulations but in 2017, Japan graduated to an equivalent of Euro 4 norms. That means, the Euro 6 or BS6-compliant version is still some time away. Expect Suzuki India to relaunch this motorcycle in its BS6 guise in 2021. It will go up against the BMW S 1000 RR, which is currently the only BS6-compliant litre-class supersport. But we hope by 2021, Honda also brings the BS6-compliant CBR1000RR-R Fireblade to India.
