Thanks to the skills of Suzuki, became in markets like the bike with better power / weight ratio: 1,51kg / CV. Arriving to give 155CV in dyno.
It is also the ideal weight distribution with 50% in each wheel. The Suzuki GSX-R1100 1986 has exceptional brakes: double floating brake discs 310 mm in front with eight pistons individual brake, combined with low weight bikes made it exceptional.
The exhaust is 4 in 1. The front fork has preload (4-way) and compression setting NEAS (3-way). The rear shock preload settings leads and compression (4-way).
