Leading the big league in 1992 Suzuki GSX-R1100 race-winning technology and proven design features that put it way out in front. A state of the art 1127cc DOHC 4 cylinder, 16 valve power-unit benefits from an array of technical refinements that make its high levels of power and performance possible.
The blended design of valve-seats and inlet ports improves intake efficiency and torque levels while individual lightweight rocker arms for each cylinder reduce inertial mass and, especially at high rpm, mechanical losses.
The sophisticated engine has Twin Swirl Combustion Chambers fed by 40mm Slingshot carburetors which have a special slide design for quicker, more efficient response. Cooling is achieved using the Suzuki Advanced Cooling System (SACS) which combines oil with air cooling and carries heat to a high capacity Radial Flow cooler for improved heat dissipation and more precise engine performance.
To ensure good handling, there is a compact, double-cradle aluminium alloy frame and swingarm design that is based on Formula 1 racing motorcycles. Upside-down front forks give greater rigidity and smoother action.
The 1992 Suzuki GSX-R1100 has wide hollow-spoked wheels, with high-performance 17″ front and rear radial tyres for superb roadholding. The front braking system features 310mm floating twin discs, four piston calipers and sintered metal pads for fantastic stopping power.
Narrow fairing and bodywork derives from factory race machines, while the wide racing seat combines a sporty feel with practical riding comfort. Sensational new colour graphics underline the pedigree and excellence of the 1992 Suzuki GSX-R1100, the ultimate high performance race replica.
1992 Suzuki GSX-R1100 Features
The Suzuki GSX-R 1100 1992, 1127cc, powerhouse features cylinder head designs straight from the factory racers:
- Valve seats are smoothly blended with reshaped intake ports for better cylinder charging and higher torque.
- Use of lightweight, single rocker arms to open each valve, and use of small shims to adjust valve lash, reduces inertial mass and mechanical losses.
- New, double-row ball bearing is used on the transmission output shaft.
- New crankcase system sprays a constant stream of oil on the 3rd, 4th and 5th gearsets for better gear lubrication and cooling.
- Suzuki Advanced Cooling System (SACS), combined with air cooling, efficiently carries engine heat away to the high-capacity curved Radial Flow cooler.
- Larger 40mm Slingshot carburetors maintain quick engine response.
- A new remote choke control lever is conveniently positioned on the left handlebar.
- Cool-air induction system routes cool, dense air from the fairing intake to the airbox.
- Aluminum-alloy double-cradle frame, together with swingarm reinforced with gussets, features rigidity well proven with modified racing engines.
- lnverted front forks have higher rigidity and provide better fork response. Suzukiís unique progressive link rear suspension system is combined with a remote-reservoir rear shock.
- Wide aluminum-alloy wheels with hollow spokes carry high-performance 17-inch front and rear radial tires.
- 310mm front brake discs with surface slotting and floating carrier mounts are mounted, together with 4-piston calipers with staggered piston sizes.
- New factory racer-derived, narrower fairing with flush-mounted headlights, along with sidecovers and tailsection, are wind-tunnel refined and provide better aerodynamics.
