The GT will start at $13,349 while the GT+ will be priced at $14,099.Both models are still fresh, however, having been first introduced to the market for the 2022 model year.Each carries a GSX-R1000-derived engine that delivers ample pull throughout the rev range, though it’s specifically tuned to provide the best performance in the low- to midrange. The complete Suzuki Intelligent Ride System allows riders to choose between three drive modes and five traction control modes. A bidirectional quickshifter makes moving through the gearbox a breeze and the clutch assist system makes traditional shifting maneuvers smooth. A 6.5-inch TFT instrument display provides all the information you need.The bikes are suspended by fully adjustable KYB kit front and back and Brembo hardware provides stopping power.Side cases are standard on the GT+ but can easily be added to the GT as well.
