SUZUKI GSX-R1000 Custom
Japanese Custom Culture
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "SUZUKI GSX-R1000" custom by Webike community user "KOMATCH". This is a custom K7 model, the fourth generation GSX-R1000 with 185 horsepower and an organic design that has evolved into an overlapping cowl. In order to meet the regulations of various countries, dual exhaust system was adopted on this supersport model, which was rare style in this era, but many owners changed the exhaust first because they thought it would increase the vehicle's weight. The Yoshimura Tri-Oval Titanium Cyclone is a cool solution to this problem while maintaining the unusual two-piece form. The tail end of the silencer is a 2-end type, which is the symbol of Yoshimura racers, giving the GSX-R1000 a sharper and more powerful appearance despite the dual exhaust style. In addition, the use of titanium material for the tailpipe has reduced the weight by approximately 2 kg compared to the standard model, greatly improving the athletic performance of the GSX-R1000 in sport riding. Although this big displacement supersport was praised for its prompting at the first time, now that time has passed, it must be said that its equipment is poor compared to the latest models. The owners who have filled the functional and technological differences by combining various custom parts such as a full Brembo brake system, Ohlins suspension, Ohlins steering damper, and so on, can't help but feel the love for GIXXER.
