In 2023, Suzuki joins the parallel twin-powered middleweight segment with its new GSX-S800S naked bike and V-Strom 800DE adventurer. While the two platforms signal a new era for the House of Hamamatsu, not all 2023 models need to break the Suzuki mold. That’s the case with the 2023 GSX-S750Z and GSX250R, two tried-and-true models that have anchored the lineup for years.
Starting with the naked bike, Suzuki adapts the once-revolutionary GSX-R750's engine for life on the mean streets. The fuel-injected, 749cc inline-four engine favors a torquey power delivery while the model’s advanced traction control helps harness all the mill’s might. The KYB suspenders match that power with supportive yet lithe handling and the dual radial-mounted Nissin four-piston calipers mated to wave-style rotors provide more than enough bite up front.
