Suzuki GSX-R750 1989 brought about minor changes such as: Modified lower bodywork, changes to graphics and silver exhaust silencers, the exhaust manifold now featured small chamfers on the collector for increased ground clearance, change to the rear shock mounting geometry and front fork length to improve ground clearance.
Gear ratio revisions in 3rd, 4th and 5th gears offered improved power control and secondary gear ratio was lowered, together with 5mm increase in the wheelbase, all combining for better sports riding on highways.
So the brake master cylinder controlled the 4 piston brake calipers featured four-way adjustability.
The SACS acronym decal, located on the lower body work of the blue/white models, changed from a diagonal lettering to a straight lettering.
