The GSX-R 750 has many new features for the 2005 model year.
NEW FEATURES:
- Headlight switches off during startup to reduce load on battery
KEY FEATURES:
- Named "Best Sportbike" - Motorcyclist Magazine
CHASSIS FEATURES:
- Aggressive-styled bodywork design with minimal frontal area, plus ram air intake positioned close to center for high airbox pressure and intake efficiency
- Vertical-type multi-reflector headlight, plus compact LED taillight and aerodynamic turn signals
- Compact instrument cluster features a step-motor-driven analog tach, digital LCD speedometer and programmable rpm indicator light - also includes LED indicators for turn signals, high beam, neutral light, coolant temp, oil pressure and fuel level
- Aluminum frame with extruded main spar design similar to GSX-R600 for optimum balance of size, weight and rigidity
- Aluminum swingarm with extruded main arms and cast cross brace for torsional strength and minimal weight
- Compact 17-liter fuel tank - designed with narrow width at the rider's knees for easier movement and weight transfer
- Inverted Showa cartridge-type front fork with 43mm inner tubes and fully adjustable damping and spring preload
- Fully adjustable Showa piggy-back shock absorber with large diameter shock piston rod for improved damping performance
- Radial-mount 4-piston brake calipers for maximum braking performance - system includes radial piston front master cylinder for improved brake lever feel
- Dual-opposed-piston rear brake caliper indexed to the swingarm - eliminates conventional torque arm for further weight reduction
- Lightweight cast aluminum wheels and high performance radial tires
ENGINE FEATURES:
- Compact & lightweight 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine designed for overall weight reduction, optimum combustion efficiency and power delivery
- Cylinder head with compact combustion chamber design, high compression ratio, large intake and exhaust ports for improved intake and exhaust efficiency and high power output
- Lightweight titanium valves with steel alloy springs and aluminum spring retainers operated by thin-wall hollow camshafts to reduce weight and inertia
- Lightweight forged pistons with chrome-nitride-coated upper compression rings and oil control rings for a harder, more consistent ring finish and reduced friction
- One-piece cylinder block and upper crankcase section is equipped with ventilation holes between cylinders to reduce crankcase pressure and mechanical loss
- Tapered, double-barrel throttle body design features Suzuki's SDTV throttle valve system, plus multi-hole-type injectors for optimum fuel atomization and throttle response
- Hydraulic cam chain tensioner fed by internal oil passageway system - eliminates external oil hose to reduce weight
- 32-bit ECM with high ROM memory, plus 22 trigger-pole rpm provide precise control of fuel and ignition systems - all housed in a small, lightweight control box
- Lightweight stainless steel exhaust system featuring a high capacity muffler with titanium core pipes and aluminum outer sleeve
- High capacity oil cooler and large trapezoidal-shaped radiator provide efficient engine cooling - includes compact cooling fan assembly designed for improved air flow
- Close-ratio, six-speed transmission and cable-operated clutch
