Suzuki GSX-8R - Top five highlights

Suzuki India has launched the second of its big-capacity sports bike in India, the GSX-8R. Here are five things you should know about it.

Design

The Suzuki GSX-8R gets a sporty appearance with its full-faired bodywork. The front profile gets a slightly polarising setup that comprises vertically stacked projector LED headlights with an LED DRL at the top. Overall, the GSX-8R seems quite compact thanks to its stubby tail section. It is offered in three colours - Blue, White, and Black.
