Changed the dry weight in the main article (the sidebar already had it as such) to 365 which is suzuki's claimed dry weight: the link is to Sport Rider, who claims a dry weight of 415, how they get this I am not positive, but I think its by weighing it with gas empty vs gas full: gas weighs in at ~ 6 lbs/gallon, 4.8 gallon tank = ~30 lbs, which is what SR.com is listing as the difference between wet and dry weight: this is incorrect, dry weight is supposed to be the bike completely dry, no fluids; not the bike with an empty gas tank. Left the SR link since it has the wet weight. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.241.158.130 ( talk)
This is an online encyclopedia and should have as much details stats about articles as possible, all the stats mentioned are verifible on the link mentioned at the end of the article! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fireblade ( talk • contribs) 18:16, 24 September 2006
Thank you very much for your comments. The source was mentioned clearly at the end of the article and it is a reliable source BBC to be exact and the feature is top gear do you even read the article carefully before you start tagging it??? it is unbiased and neutral. It is not an opinion it’s a road test and its results. thanks. ( fireblade)
I have said it time and again --This is an online encyclopedia and it should cover all aspects related to the articles, these figures show performance and capability of this bike I think question is why would someone is determined to delete these accurate reliable figures??? ( fireblade)
The GSXR 1000 was an all new model based on the 2000 GSXR 750 - they share virtually the same frame/geometry aside from the frame spars being slightly (0.5mm) thicker. The GSX 1300R Hayabusa is the actual replacement for the GSXR 1100. The 1100 ended production in 1998 and the Hayabusa came along in 1999. The GSXR 1000 did not appear until 2001. At the time that the 1100 ended production, the chassis differed significantly than that of the then current GSXR 750/600. 65.93.137.246 ( talk) 01:22, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
20 Jan. 2009. Suzuki America has done a recall on the 2005/2006 model years due to frame breakage and cracking. http://www.suzukicycles.com/Recalls/pdf/GS_GSX_GSXR_192_WebsiteLetter.pdf 71.105.41.116 ( talk) 05:19, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone have any specs on the new 09 model? I.e. power/dry weight etc? Booksacool1 ( talk) 22:52, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
was the recall just for the usa or around the world — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.241.141.115 ( talk) 08:05, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
Wouldn't it be worth mentioning in the introduction that this is the world's quickest accelerating motorcycle, as the data on this Wiki article indicates, List of fastest production motorcycles by acceleration? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Revstate ( talk • contribs) 21:11, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
Hey everyone, a small addition that I believe would add to the article is a "Current Year" section. This section would list the current model of GSX-R 1000, and its specifications. I think it would be nice to be able to easily get some information on the present model of GSX-R 1000, although this section would have to updated annually, I think it would be worth the addition. Does anyone else have any thoughts on this suggestion?
Furthermore, I noticed citations 5 and 14 were dead links, can this information be found elsewhere? Jaypeemac ( talk) 02:32, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
