Model history
The Suzuki GSX-R 1100 was launched in the mid-1980s as the large-capacity variant of the GSX-R range. It followed the philosophy pioneered by the GSX-R 750: to offer a road sports bike directly inspired by competition machines, with a lightweight design, an aluminium frame and highly refined aerodynamics.
The 1988 model, type GU74C, was fitted with a 1,052 cm³ in-line four-cylinder engine, cooled by air and oil via the Suzuki SACS — Suzuki Advanced Cooling System. This generation is generally rated at around 130 ch in the unrestricted version, with a torque of approximately 101 Nm.
The GSX-R 1100 from this period also stood out for its aluminium perimeter frame, its imposing full fairing with twin headlights and its positioning as a true road ‘superbike’. The GU74C model corresponds precisely to the 1988 generation.
With the GSX-R 750 and the GSX-R 1100, Suzuki established a very strong sporting identity in the late 1980s that would leave a lasting mark on the history of high-performance Japanese motorbikes.
