Suzuki GSX-S750 Launched At Rs 7.45 Lakh

Suzuki’s naked streetfighter heavily undercuts its competition with its competitive pricing

After being unveiled at the Auto Expo 2018 amid huge fanfare, Suzuki has now officially launched the highly anticipated GSX-S750 in the Indian market. And boy are we happy, as it has received an attractive price tag of Rs 7.45 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Just like the Suzuki Hayabusa, the GSX-S750 has taken the CKD route to India.

The Suzuki GSX-S750 borrows many design cues from its elder sibling, the GSX-S1000. Its streetfighter pedigree can be seen in its muscular body extensions and sharp body lines. It gets a halogen headlamp at the front with LED DRLs, on top of which sits the all-digital instrument cluster. The back sports an LED tail section that seems to have been taken straight from the Suzuki GSX-S1000.

The Japanese bikemaker has equipped the GSX-S750 with three-stage traction control and low-rpm assist, which adjusts the engine speed during low speeds and take-off to smoothen out the power delivery, helping the bike avoid the possibility of stalling.

Powering the naked street fighter is a 750cc, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. This mill delivers 114.2PS of power at 10,500 rpm and 81Nm of torque at 9000rpm and is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. In comparison, the Triumph Street Triple RS makes 123PS of power, the Kawasaki Z900 makes 125PS of power while the Yamaha MT-09 churns out 115PS of power

Suspension duties are handled by 41mm KYB USD forks at the front, adjustable for preload, and a KYB monoshock unit at the back, with spring preload. Braking is handled by twin 310mm Nissin discs at the front and a 240mm disc at the back, with ABS as standard.

 Suzuki has nailed the pricing of the GSX-S750. It undercuts its main rival, the Triumph Street Triple S by a margin Rs 1.74 lakh! It also rivals the likes of the Yamaha MT-09, priced at Rs 10.88 lakh, the Ducati Monster 797 priced at Rs 8.03 lakh, Tiumph Street Triple RS, which is sold for Rs 10.5 lakh the Kawasaki Z900, which retails for Rs 7.68 lakh.
