Suzuki unveiled the 2027 GSX-10R supersport motorcycle at EICMA 2026. The bike introduces slide control and brake hold control, two features new to the company.
Why it matters
The GSX-10R signals Suzuki's push into the supersport segment with electronic rider aids that have not previously appeared in its lineup. Its engine and chassis are drawn from established Suzuki platforms, which may shape how riders weigh performance against everyday usability.
The 999cc liquid-cooled inline-four produces around 150 horsepower and 78 pound-feet of torque through a six-speed gearbox. The euro-spec model weighs 472 lbs with an 18-liter tank, though pricing and regional availability were not disclosed.
The players
Suzuki
Japanese motorcycle manufacturer known for its GSX-R sportbike line, which the GSX-10R's engine is derived from.
