Key highlights
- GSX-R600 and GSX-R750 continue with their familiar four-cylinder engines
- Both supersports retain conventional analogue-style equipment and mechanical hardware
- 40th Anniversary-inspired colours and graphics remain part of the range
Suzuki has revealed the 2027 GSX-R600 and GSX-R750, and if you were expecting a ground-up overhaul, well, read along to see what’s new.
The two legendary supersports continue with essentially the same formula that has kept them around for years. There is no dramatic redesign, no giant touchscreen and no sudden rush to turn them into rolling computers. In a segment that keeps getting more electronic, the GSX-R600 and GSX-R750 remain refreshingly old-school.
Same engines, same basic recipe
The GSX-R600 continues with its 599 cc, liquid-cooled, inline-four engine. It gets a six-speed gearbox and a lightweight aluminium chassis, with Suzuki’s SDMS system allowing the rider to alter power delivery.
The motorcycle weighs 187 kg, has an 810 mm seat height and uses a 17-inch wheel at either end. Brembo front brake calipers and adjustable suspension continue to be part of the package.
Then there is the more interesting GSX-R750.
Its 750 cc inline-four remains the halfway house between a 600 supersport and a litre-class machine. Suzuki’s idea has always been rather simple: put a bigger engine into a relatively compact chassis and enjoy the extra punch without making the motorcycle too heavy.
The GSX-R750 weighs 190 kg, just 3 kg more than the GSX-R600. It also gets Brembo front calipers, Showa BPF front forks and an electronically controlled steering damper.
Features
The GSX-R600 and GSX-R750 continue with conventional instrument clusters, rather than chasing the increasingly common full-colour TFT treatment. There are electronic riding aids, but Suzuki hasn’t tried to turn either motorcycle into a smartphone with wheels.
The bikes also retain their familiar twin-spar aluminium frames, conventional suspension layouts and four-cylinder engines.
Still relevant in 2027?
The GSX-R600 and GSX-R750 may look dated next to newer rivals, but their formula still makes plenty of sense. The 600 offers lightweight, high-revving four-cylinder performance, while the 750 adds a healthy dose of extra torque without moving into litre-bike territory. There is no word yet on an India launch for the 2027 models.
