PERFECT FOR THE STREET

Race-winning, track-proven bike DNA and engineering know-how focused to make the perfect bike for the street, the sharp physique of the GSX-S950 delivers a tight and striking visual package that will turn heads. It’s all about enjoyable performance, confident controllability, rider usability, and looks that can’t be beaten. With 95PS (70kW) peak power it’s the ideal choice for newer or returning riders and can be switched to 47.5PS (35kW) to make this model available to A2 licence holders too.

 

 

FUN AND PERFORMANCE

The 999cc four-stroke DOHC liquid-cooled inline-four engine that powers the GSX-S950 uses winning superbike DNA. This street-tuned engine is based on core architecture that benefits from know-how acquired over decades of developing the GSX-R1000 to win countless production race victories, and our championship winning MotoGP team. This street focused GSX-S950 is designed to perform in street conditions and is balanced to meet the needs of those wanting fun and usability rather than just outright peak performance.

GREAT RIDING ENJOYMENT

Every aspect of the GSX-S950’s performance has been refined and balanced to deliver great riding enjoyment and pleasure, while still be easy to use. Peak power output is 95PS (70kW) or can be restricted to 47.5PS (35kW) and both benefit from a strong torque especially through the low- to mid-range engine speeds most commonly used.

CLEAN, SHARP AND EXCITING

A clean, sharp look and exciting sound, the 4-2-1 exhaust system is designed and tuned to optimise performance, help satisfy Euro 5 emission standards and enhance the quality of its exhaust note. The design includes a second catalytic converter inside the chamber while the structure of the connecting pipes between cylinder pairs increase the performance of the secondary air injection system, which improves the ability to purify exhaust gases.

SUZUKI CLUTCH ASSIST SYSTEM (SCAS)

Adopting both slip and assist functionality.

The slipper clutch partially disengages to reduce negative engine torque and mitigate the effect of engine braking when downshifting from high rpm. This helps prevent the rear tyre from locking up or hopping and provides smoother deceleration, enabling the rider to shift down with greater confidence and maintain better control when downshifting into corners.

READY FOR EXCITEMENT

Even at a stand still, just looking at the GSX-S950, you can sense how agile, controllable and fun it is to ride. Every aspect reflects engineering focused on delivering great handling and control, whether riding on city streets, negotiating twisty mountain roads, or taking the long way home from work.

COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT

The chassis features a compact, lightweight package that makes the GSX-S950 agile and predictable to handle. Its twin-spar aluminium frame helps deliver easy handling and great road holding ability, while its straight main tubes are ideal for achieving high rigidity and low weight. All this connects to a ruggedly braced aluminium swingarm that further contributes to the road gripping character that lets you ride with confidence.

STRONG STOPPING POWER

The GSX-S950 has high specification radial-mount Tokico monobloc calipers. The calipers each have four opposed 30mm pistons acting on a 310mm floating-mount disc for strong stopping power, giving you the confidence and freedom to enjoy all the GSX-S950 engine and chassis has to offer.

SUZUKI INTELLIGENT RIDE SYSTEM (SIRS)

The GSX-S950 adopts a collection of the electronic systems that comprise the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS).

RIDE-BY-WIRE

The GSX-S950 adopts Suzuki’s electronic throttle control system, which takes advantage of the 32-bit ECM to control the action of the throttle valves.

SUZUKI TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (STCS)²

STCS² is programmed to continuously monitor front and rear wheel speed, engine RPM, throttle position and gear position, and designed to limit power to prevent slipping when it determines an imminent loss of traction.

RAZOR SHARP

The goal of the design concept is to visually express the potential of a motorcycle capable of such performance, and to convey the refinement and sophistication of a product designed to handle more predictably, with greater controllability on any type of ride. Its sharp lines, radical new headlight design, and slim front and rear end sections highlighting the muscular bulk of its mid-section combine to create an aggressive stance that speaks of power and performance potential

STRIKING HEXAGONAL LED HEADLIGHTS

The radical design and original cut of the hexagonal lenses of the new stacked LED headlight assemblies create a sharp, compact and unique front face. The minimalist cowling that surrounds them adds sharp lines and a sense of tension that is inspired by designs found on Suzuki’s MotoGP racing machines.

LCD INSTRUMENTS

The instrument panel packs all required information onto a compact, full LCD screen using a clean and intuitive layout with information displayed in order of priority. The panel’s LCD readouts include the speedometer, tachometer, odometer, dual trip meter, gear position, water temperature, riding range, lap time mode, average fuel consumption, instant fuel consumption, Traction Control mode, fuel gauge, clock, battery voltage, RPM indicator and service reminder.

LED TAIL LIGHT

In addition to the prominent headlight, the GSX-S950 uses a rear thin, flatly shaped rear combination light with LEDs for high visibility and long life. It is a double lens design that emphasises the stylish lines of the compact tail section.
