Suzuki GSX-R1000 2002, little change after birth
There was no need to make a significant improvement to an already powerful bike in its second year of birth. New new graphics and an exhaust pipe uncoated were the most important changes for the Suzuki GSX-R1000 2002.

This is an inline four-cylinder-powered electronic injection in the case of 1000, located 998 cubic centimeters. The power in this case reaches 160 horsepower, but with an almost perfect delivery. It has the obvious low of a machine that wastes such horsepower, but in half the counter and at the top where it says Suzuki who he is.
