GSX-10R
FUN. UNLIMITED.
The GSX-10R was created to let riders fully enjoy the performance of its powerful, long-stroke 999cc engine across a wide range of scenarios, from daily commuting and weekend touring to track riding. Built on an engine refined in the GSX-S1000 that inherits the DNA of numerous Superbike and endurance racing victories, it features a compact, lightweight chassis, a highly refined suspension system, advanced rider-assist technologies, and a sporty, forward-leaning riding position. The entire package is wrapped in aggressive styling that incorporates elements such as winglets, derived directly from cutting-edge racing.
Engine Features
A 999cc, liquid-cooled, DOHC, inline-four engine, further refined based on the powerful performance of the K5 engine. The oil pathways have been revised to further enhance reliability.
Chassis Features

– A ride quality meticulously crafted with input from test riders involved in the GSX-R series, prioritizing the rider’s connection to the machine and the pure joy of sports riding.
– Designed with a focus on controllability and fit, based on the triangular geometry of a forward-leaning riding posture, delivering a riding position equivalent to that of the GSX-R1000R.
