Suzuki GSX-8R: eye-catching limited edition makes for an accomplished all-rounder

One thing is obvious straight from the start with Suzuki’s new sporty middleweight, limited-edition GSX-8R Kiiro. With a bold personality, eye-catching graphics, an individually-numbered tank badge and (very) yellow paint, it definitely isn’t for shrinking violets.

Based on the ‘ordinary’ GSX-8R, it has the same rumbly 776cc parallel twin engine four-stroke producing 82 bhp at 8,500rpm but also heaps of attitude to spare, appealing perhaps not just to riders wanting a fast commuter, track bike or tourer - but those seeking a measure of exclusivity too.
