FEATURES
Engine
Majestic Performance
The Elegance of Controllable and Reliable Power
The GX is powered by a 999cm3 liquid-cooled DOHC inline-four engine engineered to perform optimally under diverse riding conditions and in all kinds of traffic. Derived from the engine that helped carry the GSX-R1000 supersport machine to countless racing championship titles, this street-tuned powerplant benefits from a fusion of race-proven engineering and the latest in technological advances to achieve the durability and balanced performance needed to support both long-distance touring and aggressive sport riding, while also satisfying Euro 5 emissions standards.
Features include superbike-level performance and a broad, smooth torque curve throughout the engine’s operating range.
Vibration is also minimised to make riding more comfortable and less tiring. This combines with a variety of electronic control technologies that enable you to match torque output to the type of ride or your preferred riding style at any given time, and includes the excitement of powerful acceleration to support aggressive sport riding when desired.

Instrumentation
6.5-inch Full-color Multi-information display
The GSX-S1000GX instrument cluster employs a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT LCD screen with custom graphics and readouts designed to provide you with instant access to a rich variety of information. Developed specifically for use on motorcycles, this large multi-information display features a scratch resistant surface, an anti-reflective coating that improves visibility in bright light, and manual or automatic switching between the day (white, top) and night (black, bottom) display modes.
Another standout feature is smartphone connectivity, which gives you access to a variety of convenient apps and functions that bring greater functionality and fun to your ride.
Convenience
Smart Cruise Control
Smart Cruise Control helps reduce fatigue when touring long distances, particularly when travelling at constant speed on highways, by letting you maintain a set speed without operating the throttle. And it does this while allowing you to perform clutchfree gear shifts using the Bi-directional Quick Shift System without cancelling cruise control. This makes the GX more comfortable, more convenient and less tiring to operate on long rides.
When you do need to temporarily disengage the system, you can use the handy resume function to re-engage it and accelerate to the most recent speed setting. You can easily adjust the speed setting using the (+/-) select switch on the left handlebar, and the chosen setting appears on the color TFT LCD instrument screen.
