Although remaining vastly unchanged versus the previous iterations, the return of the Gixxer for the 2024 model-year means that Suzuki continues to have a liter-class supersport offering in its lineup. It's powered by a 999.8cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, inline-four cylinder engine with a maximum output of 199 horsepower and 86.7 pound-feet of torque.

Suspension consists of Showa BFF and BFRC-Lite components, while brakes consist of Brembo 320-millimeter dual rotors up front, and a single disc at the rear.

For the 2024 model-year, the Suzuki GSX-R1000 is offered in a new Glass Matte Mechanical Gray colorway, as well as the Metallic Matte Black No. 2 and Glass Sparkle Black with blue graphics on the fairings and wheels.
