Suzuki previously announced its plans of withdrawing from racing altogether. This was mostly true, as the brand pulled out from the most prestigious racing series on two wheels, the MotoGP. However, the Japanese manufacturer decided that it would continue pursuing its racing exploits in the EWC with the highly successful Suzuki Endurance Racing Team, currently sitting in fourth place in the 2023 rankings.
In the fall of 2022, Suzuki released a special edition version of the Hayabusa modeled after the iconic Bol d'Or endurance race in France. This time around, with summer in full swing, Suzuki has pulled the covers off yet another limited-edition sporty machine. This time, the Japanese manufacturer has released a Race Edition of the popular naked bike, the GSX-S1000. Here, we find a unique colorway inspired by the Suzuki Endurance Racing Team, as well as the addition of a few choice upgrades to give the bike a sportier feel and improved performance.
