Suzuki’s returning GSX-R1000R and the new SV-7GX will be shown at this year’s East Anglian Copdock Motorcycle Show, which takes place on Sunday 6 September.
Suzuki will again be in attendance, supported by popular regional dealership Orwell Motorcycles.
The GSX-R1000R returns to the UK market after a brief hiatus with the 40th Anniversary Edition. The most successful machine in endurance racing history has undergone a series of changes to its engine for 2026, while race-derived winglets made from dry carbon fibre adorn the fairings.
Launched this summer, the SV-7GX also brings back Suzuki’s legendary 645cc V-twin engine. Available from just £7,999 OTR, in the 7GX it powers a middleweight crossover machine, with styling that draws inspiration from the range-topping GSX-S1000GX+, which comes with 36-litre panniers as standard for its £12,999 price tag, and will also be on display.
The sports touring GSX-S1000GT+ – which also comes with panniers included in its OTR price of £11,999 – will be displayed, as will a special DR-Z4S adorned with a Ken Roczen graphics kit, paying homage to the 2026 AMA Supercross champion. The bike was ridden by Roczen at this year’s ABR Festival. The retro 8TT – which bears more than a passing resemblance to the GS1000S – and both the GSX-R and GSX-S125 machines will feature.
The event team from both Suzuki GB and Orwell Motorcycles will be present to provide information on the products displayed and the current range of offers available.
The Copdock Motorcycle Show takes place at Trinity Park Showground, Ipswich, IP3 8UH. For tickets, click here.
Suzuki's 8T and 8TT modern retros have won a prestigious Red Dot Design Award.
The two new retro-inspired machines – based on the same platform as the award-winning GSX-8S and GSX-8R – take design cues from iconic models from Suzuki's back catalogue.
The 8T draws inspiration from the Suzuki T500, down to the headlight, tank, and seat style, while the 8TT is more than a subtle nod the 1979 GS1000S. Stylish 'bar end mirrors add another element of retro flair.
Though the designs are routed in the past, the underpinnings are thoroughly modern; there are selectable traction control settings and power modes, a colour TFT screen, and a bi-directional quickshifter as standard.
The 8T comes with an OTR price of £8,599, the 8TTis available for £8,999.
Suzuki Motor Corporation's Takashi Ise, commented, “We are honoured that the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT have received the prestigious Red Dot Award. Both models are neo-retro street bikes that appeal both the unique and attractive elements of Suzuki’s past iconic models, and modern performance. Designed to suit a wide range of riding situations, from everyday use to touring, they offer enjoyment to customers across diverse lifestyles. Suzuki upholds the corporate slogan of ‘By Your Side’ and will continue to make efforts to create products that satisfy our customers in both performance and design.”
Red Dot Design Award is an internationally recognised and prestigious design award that was established in 1955 and has been continuously presented to this day. It evaluates products based on nine comprehensive criteria including innovation, functionality, ergonomics, durability, ecological compatibility, and emotional content. The award was granted in recognition of the high evaluation of the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT for their precise transfer of classic visual features into a clearly structured, modern aesthetic.

Suzuki’s new SV-7GX will be available from just £6,999 OTR when it arrives in dealerships this summer.
Revealed at Eicma in November, the 7GX – a new middleweight crossover in Suzuki’s range – gives the brand’s proven and well-loved middleweight V-twin engine a new lease of life. Updated to meet the latest Euro5+ emissions standards, it still delivers the same punch and characterful power delivery that has cemented its place as one of the greatest engines ever built. In the 7GX it gets a new magneto, transmission gears, a ride-by-wire throttle, and new exhaust.
That new ride-by-wire throttle enables the standard fitment bi-directional quickshifter, three traction control modes, and three power modes, with all information displayed via a colour TFT screen with smartphone connectivity.
Taking design cues from the range-topping GSX-S1000GX+, the 7GX comes in four colour schemes, with a simple, crisp white version available with an OTR price of £6,999.
The metallic blue, greige, and black versions, adorned with extra decals and matching wheel colours, will come with an OTR price of £7,399.
Suzuki GB’s head of motorcycles, Jonathan Martin, commented, “We’re really pleased to be able to bring the 7GX to market at such a competitive price point and with a great spec sheet to match, which really reaffirms our commitment to value. We have obviously made a number of recent revisions to our pricing – including taking nearly £3,000 off the OTR price of the GSX-S1000GX+ – and I think this confirms to customers that those changes are not short-term, offer-led changes, but represent a genuine long-term shift.”

The combination of state-of-the-art engine performance and handling means that 2027 KTM SX is a bona fide consideration for all motocrossers. Tried, tested and triumphant.
The hydro-formed, laser-cut and robot-welded steel frame is the result of decades of evolution, shaped by continuous development and direct feedback from race-winning athletes to deliver optimal response, stability, flex and weight across all model sizes. The same path of progression can be seen with the advanced, compact and fierce engine technology featuring EFI, including two-stroke models. The powerplants are unbeatable for dimensions, torque and horsepower – while adhering to the latest FIM noise regulations – for that ‘full grin’ effect.
Premium components grace the full-size KTM SX-Fs and trickle into sister machinery.

ABSORB THE DAKAR RALLY VICTORY EXPERIENCE WITH THE 2027 KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA
Dakar Rally proven performance, now destined for private ownership with the 2027 KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA – available in limited numbers from July 2026.
This factory-derived model has been made to satisfy budding rally raiders who want a competitive edge or for offroad motorcyclists eager to sample the engineering that swept to yet another overall victory this year in the world’s toughest race event.
For half a decade the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA has been KTM’s pure expression of technical rally supremacy. The R&D for components, performance and settings have filtered directly from competition. This is a bike that has carried four different riders to the top of the Dakar podium since 2020 as well as figuring prominently at the peak of RallyGP. The KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA is as close to a complete and race-ready article as it gets. The clue is in the name: ‘REPLICA’ says it all.
KTM ruled the 2026 Dakar with Argentine Luciano Benavides in January and to commemorate the feat (the sixth time the Red Bull KTM team have triumphed in the last ten editions) KTM are also releasing eight of the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA LUCIANO BENAVIDES FACTORY EDITION with a host of extra upgrades, aesthetic touches and an unbeatable customer experience in the sold-out KTM ADVENTURE RALLY in Italy this summer.
Just over 100 units of the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA will be kicking up roost on trails this year. At the heart of the bike is the fearsome and relentless 450 cc fuel-injected SOHC engine, armed with a six-speed gearbox and premium Brembo hydraulic clutch with rally specific gearing. A titanium Akrapovic exhaust system trims weight and maximises power punch.
The hydro-formed, laser-cut and hand-welded frame is expertly crafted for the ideal blend of longitude and torsional flex. This gives a prime feeling with regards to rider feedback but also stability and assurance. This is boosted further by the fully customisable WP PRO Suspension and is easily adjustable.
The KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA is equipped with rally-spec particulars. The dual radiators spread the responsibility of cooling and increase reliability in the case of unwanted damage from the terrain. The triple clamps (23 mm offset) are CNC for extra stiffness but at a low weight. The aluminum alloy tapered handlebar has rally-tested foam rubber grips. The footpegs use a wider surface area for better grip.
More? How about strong Brembo braking power matched by the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA’s capability to go the distance thanks to a three-fuel-tank construction that extends the capacity to 34.5 litres. The carbon-fibre navigation tower crests a purposeful cockpit (for implementation of a digital roadbook with intuitive controls and a powerful LED) and is part of unique ergonomics that emphasises comfort while standing and sitting for long distances. The bodywork and aerodynamics achieve the tricky mix of optimum positioning, both of protection from the elements but also a stance for control and quick reactions.
For 2027, the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA switches back to traditional KTM orange. The KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA LUCIANO BENAVIDES FACTORY EDITION goes a step further. The most obvious difference is the full Red Bull KTM livery, ensuring that the bike looks even more like its decorated Dakar sibling. Other features include factory carbon parts – like brake discs and tank pads – and the ‘LE’ numbered emblem on the frame. The Selle Dalla Valle seat is both a visual and performance improvement and the application of mousse-adorned Michelin Rally tyres is another valuable tweak.
As in 2025, the title-winning Red Bull KTM Rally Factory Team will be guests of honour on the 2026 KTM ADVENTURE RALLY (bringing their truck and expertise) that will comb lands around Perugia in Italy during early September. The annual gathering is already fully subscribed but KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA LUCIANO BENAVIDES FACTORY EDITION customers will have the VIP treatment with a handover by the Dakar champion as well as a signed race jersey and on-the-ground support from the race team for the riding days.
KEY INFORMATION FOR THE 2027 KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA:

- Just over 100 units available of KTM’s high-bred production machine for both competition purposes and high-level offroad thrills

THE 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK – KTM'S FIRST TRACK ONLY DUKE MODEL
Let’s get straight to the apex –?the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK is a purpose-built, track-only weapon that puts crushing lap times ahead of all else and is officially the most powerful production model KTM has ever built. Limited to 100 units worldwide.
If you have ever asked the question “what would it take to build the ultimate track-attack machine?” the 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK answers it.
The KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK is the first track-only SUPER DUKE model in the KTM lineup. Stripped of all components that could make it street-legal, it is built to strict FIM racetrack regulations, with a level of customisation and equipment never before seen on a production-model KTM.
Built at KTM HQ in Mattighofen, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK tips the scales at nine kilograms less than the street-legal KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR and a whole 20 kilograms less than the standard KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R.
To achieve this, the KTM Research and Development team (R&D) removed all unnecessary road-going parts and panels, and reached for the very top shelf in the KTM parts catalogue, putting together a purposeful and deliberate mix of carbon fibre body parts, lightweight forged magnesium wheels, a full titanium Akrapovic Evolution Line exhaust, titanium screws and a reduced electronics platform.
With weight-saving taken care of, the engineers set upon the handling characteristics, bolting on WP PRO COMPONENTS suspension with MotoGP technology, a Superbike-spec BREMBO braking system and Michelin Power Performance Slick tyres – among others.
The result is a true no-compromise, READY TO RACE track machine built for those who dare to break the rules.
The 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK is strictly limited to only 100 units globally, with the UK market set to receive five units in total. The 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR TRACK retails for £32,999 and is available to order via authorised KTM dealers now.
THE 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR – NAKED FURY REFINED
With every component, material choice and engineering decision bristling with purpose, the 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR has been developed as the undisputed flagship of the KTM street range – you can simply refer to it as the BEAST RR.
Built in the heart of Austria by the engineers at KTM, the new 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR represents the most extreme evolution of KTM’s Hypernaked philosophy. Designed for riders who demand the very highest levels of performance, its existence can be summed up in one key statement: Pure Performance.
Compared to the BEAST it’s based upon – the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R –?it sheds 11 kilograms, transforming overall dynamics both on the road and at the racetrack. The reduction in mass enhances agility and responsiveness, while a stiffer, more focused chassis delivers greater stability when hunting on the ragged edge.
To achieve this level of ferocity and focus, KTM’s R&D department turned to the very best materials and components available. Extensive carbon-fibere components contribute to dramatic weight savings while reinforcing the bike’s race-inspired design language. Suspension duties are handled by MotoGP-derived WP PRO COMPONENTS, providing race-level performance and extensive adjustability, while forged wheels and Michelin Power GP Hypersport tyres offer a whole new level of riding.
Firepower comes courtesy of KTM’s latest generation 1350 cc LC8 V-twin delivering 190 PS and 145 Nm of torque, complete with new CAMSHIFT technology for improved fuel combustion throughout the rev range, with a titanium Akrapovic Slip-On exhaust providing the necessary bark to this BEAST’s bite.
However, it's in the effectiveness of getting that power to the ground that makes all the difference to its potency. WP PRO COMPONENTS suspension features MotoGP-derived technology to bring expert-level adjustability and stability, with ultra-lightweight wheels and track-ready Michelin rubber bringing agility and grip, and Brembo HyPure Sport front brake calipers providing the stopping power.
The enhancements don’t stop with the hardware either, with a feast of class-leading technology adding an additional layer to the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR package. In fact, it stakes a claim to having the most complete electronics package ever fitted to a street-going KTM with all TECH PACK features unlocked as standard.
The KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR debuts an all-new 8.8-inch touchscreen TFT dashboard, with new lap timer and telemetry stats within TRACK MODE, as well as an all-new BEAST MODE function. These work together with the usual spread of Rider Aids, Ride Modes and ABS functions.
Lastly, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR sets the tone with subtle but key visual enhancements. Adding winglets around the tank helps increase downforce to reduce front-wheel lift and a new headlight design and colour scheme set it apart from anything else in the car park or track paddock.
Make no mistake, this is no mere special edition. This is a no-compromise Hypernaked machine built to torment superbikes in their own backyard. The 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR is lighter, sharper and more focused than ever before.
It is a motorcycle engineered to sit at the very top of the Naked performance hierarchy, built for riders who demand performance above posing and a BEAST ready to wear the RR badge.
The 2026 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE RR will be available for £24,999 in authorised KTM dealers from late April 2026, with the UK receiving just 40 of 350 units available worldwide.
2027 KTM FREERIDE E PUSHES THE PULSE FOR A THRILLING OFFROAD ELECTRIC RIDE
KTM’s FREERIDE philosophy of motorcycling liberty endures for 2027 thanks to the latest edition of the KTM FREERIDE E: the company’s flagship expression of effortless low maintenance, high-quality engineering in electric mobility that hikes the fun factor.
For over a decade the KTM FREERIDE E has thrust many advantages of the concept directly into riders’ faces: a low-emissions, quiet, easy-to-service, durable offroad motorcycle that breaks boundaries for when and where it can be ridden. The convenience has been matched by performance: instant and grin-inducing torque and a 95 km/h top speed powered by a 29 kg MX50 Lithium-Ion battery providing two to three hours of typical Enduro-esque riding time. Combine these elements with a purpose-built chassis, latest-generation WP XACT suspension, Braketec hardware and Michelin Enduro Medium tyres and the KTM FREERIDE E lives up to its name.
For 2027 KTM has squeezed the peak power to 19.2 kW from the inaudible, efficient, waterproof and dustproof motor that also buzzes with 37 Nm of torque. The output can be administered through three ride modes – ECO, NORMAL and SPORT – and three energy recouperation settings that help extend the range and potential of the KTM FREERIDE E. The electronic package is advanced, featuring a ‘rollover’ sensor for safety and adjustable traction control relayed to the rider through clear LEDs.
The new KTM FREERIDE E has shaved weight and tips the scales at 112 kg. The same agile and precision-engineered chrome-molybdenum steel frame surrounds the engine package and battery architecture. The subframe is made from aluminum and glass-fibre reinforced nylon, resulting in a new seat height of 910 mm.
More gains have been made with the battery capacity offering an increase compared to the previous model. Riders can count on a 5.5 kWh from the innovative ‘swappable’ technology and the battery itself will easily withstand over 1000 charging cycles before effectiveness reduces to 80%.
The KTM FREERIDE E has been crafted on the immeasurable input of KTM’s offroad pedigree, countless hours of Research and Development as well as careful study of the latest hardware and software that applies to motorcycles in the electric segment. A refreshed colourway and renewed aesthetic add to the sensation that riders are steering a symbol of the present and a view of tomorrow.
2027 KTM FREERIDE E – HIGHLIGHTS
- 2027 model with refined power delivery and a battery capacity increase compared to the previous generation
- Low emissions and maintenance
- Handlebar mounted front and rear brake levers
- Chrome-molybdenum steel frame and a motorcycle
- Overall weight of 112 kg
- Adjustable WP XACT and XPLOR suspension
- Offroad orientated 21-inch and 18-inch aluminium wheels
- Interchangeable battery tech, 8 hour charging time with 660 W unit, 1.5h with 3.3 kW power charger
- 5.5 kWh battery capacity for two to three hours of Enduro riding time
- Key power stats: 11 kW nominal power, 19.2 kW peak power, 37 Nm of torque and a top speed of 95 km/h
The 2027 KTM FREERIDE E will land in authorised KTM dealers from late April 2026, available for £8,999.
DESERT BRED. RALLY HONED. THE 2026 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY IS BUILT WITHOUT COMPROMISE
With limited numbers available worldwide, the 2026 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY represents the sharpest expression of KTM’s rally-bred engineering. Developed from Dakar-winning DNA, it stands as the most performance-driven mid-capacity Adventure machine in the segment.
While the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R defines the benchmark for offroad travel performance, the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY is engineered for riders who demand factory-level suspension, rally-spec ergonomics and uncompromising hardware straight from the showroom. Built to conquer rather than to merely traverse terrain, it draws direct inspiration from the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rally machines.
While the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R defines the benchmark for offroad travel performance, the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY is engineered for riders who demand factory-level suspension, rally-spec ergonomics and uncompromising hardware straight from the showroom. Built to conquer rather than to merely traverse terrain, it draws direct inspiration from the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rally machines.
Derived directly from WP Factory Racing competition programmes, the WP PRO COMPONENTS suspension brings genuine race technology – not adapted road hardware – to the Adventure segment. A lightweight WP XPLOR PRO fork with Cone Valve technology works in harmony with a WP XPLOR PRO shock absorber, to deliver a class-leading 270mm of travel and exceptional damping performance across the harshest terrain.
Despite its unmatched front-end confidence, superior bottoming resistance and planted, controlled feel at speed, comfort remains paramount, providing stability and composure when charging across the globe, even when loaded with luggage or a pillion.
Power comes from a compact 889 cc parallel twin engine producing 106 PS and 100 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Advanced electronics further extend the bike’s rally focus, with Offroad ABS, multiple ride modes including Rally Mode, Traction Control and Motor Slip Regulation allowing riders to fine-tune performance on the fly via the five inch TFT display with Connectivity Unit and Turn-by-Turn+ navigation.
Visually, the 2026 edition makes an unmistakable statement. The new Red Bull KTM Factory Racing-inspired design and Akrapovic Slip-on Line exhaust echo that of past Dakar-winning machines, creating a motorcycle that looks ready to take on any terrain.
Adding further confidence to its uncompromising performance, the 2026 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY comes with KTM’s PREMIUM MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY. Riders benefit from up to 4 years of coverage, offering long-term assurance backed by KTM’s race-proven reliability. More information on KTM PREMIUM MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY can be found on ktm.com.

The race-derived potential of the KTM 990 RC R has already been felt on the road but this thrilling chameleon has changed its form: the KTM 990 RC R TRACK has arrived, and is a stripped-back, souped-up adrenaline monster primed for circuit use. This machine is desperate for speed and hungry for a target.
Almost everything about the new KTM 990 RC R TRACK can be determined by numbers.
Zero: compromises for a pure-bred non-street legal supersport motorcycle. Lights, mirrors, side-stand and other street requirements are gone, replaced by a high value – but also entry-level friendly – race-ready configuration. Low maintenance, easy to repair and detailed dealer support are other characteristics. More examples? The fairing is made from injected plastic for personal decals and graphics, with higher windscreen to accommodate a full tuck position. There is a wet weather tail light and paddock stand supplied as standard while the controls and dash have been simplified for the track.
Two: Michelin Power Slick tyres in sizes 120/70-R17 and 190/55-R17 for the track. As well as fully adjustable, state-of-the-art WP APEX suspension carrying settings that have been honed through bounteous testing laps around some of the most prominent motorsport circuits in Europe.
Three: Track Modes. The KTM 990 RC R TRACK shaves two kilograms through a more compact electronics system. Racers can set up their bike to harness the most of their tyres, power and fuel and for the demands of a session through three easily customisable Track Modes. There are possibilities for Throttle Response, Motorcycle Traction Control, Slip adjustment, Anti Wheelie Mode, Launch Control and Engine Brake Control. Also count on a Pit Limiter, Quickshifter+ and all the lap information needed through a sharp 4.2 inch full colour TFT.
(RC)16: KTM’s MotoGP™ top speed record holder was the inspiration and the foil for the KTM 990 RC R TRACK’s aerodynamic profile. Wings and edges have been sculpted for the best downforce and corner performance for entry, grip and stability on acceleration. The 15.7 litre fuel tank and reworked seat – set at 857?mm height – form key elements of the bike’s sporty ergonomics, creating six effective contact points that help the rider glide effortlessly around the motorcycle while still maintaining a committed, full-attack riding position.
320: milimetres of the Brembo HyPure front disc with next generation of the four-piston engineering, meaning a more linear feel, a constant pressure point, less lever pull and better modulation. A 240 milimetre rear disc complements the system that is also sports-orientated and upgraded for performance compared to the ABS-modulated outfit for the KTM 990 RC R.
947: cubic centimetres of torque-filled blast. The KTM 990 RC R TRACK boosts the numbers to 135 PS (99.3 kW) and 105 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm. It all comes from a parallel twin DOHC LC8c engine that already makes the KTM 990 RC R one of the most compact packages on the market and one of the best for power-to-weight ratio. The Akrapovic Evolution line exhaust system, made from stainless steel and weighing just three kilograms, hones the 98.2 decibel output further as riders thunder through the racing gearbox that features a longer first gear and shorter sixth.
The KTM 990 RC R TRACK was unveiled at the 2025 launch of its sister model, the same time that KTM announced the KTM 990 RC R CUP: a cost-controlled, professionally organised six-round European race series for real riders – not professionals. Riders can obtain further information on the KTM 990 RC R CUP HERE.
Riaan Neveling, KTM Head of Global Marketing: “The beauty of the KTM 990 RC R was the ease with which we could make only a few adjustments and have the KTM 990 RC R TRACK ready to go. Our history and achievements on the asphalt informed a lot of the KTM 990 RC R TRACK and the KTM 990 RC R range. We took on this project knowing that we wanted to send our customers heartrates’ racing as well! That was the goal, and the KTM 990 RC R TRACK is our best definition of a sportsbike yet. We hope to see as many of them as possible through apexes of the KTM 990 RC R CUP!”
The KTM 990 RC R TRACK is the ultimate refined – but still unfiltered – motorcycle for circuit thrills and for abuse of the stopwatches.
The KTM 990 RC R TRACK retails for £15,599 and will start to arrive in authorised KTM dealers from March 2026. With the entire UK allocation already secured with customer orders, the KTM 990 RC R TRACK is one of the fastest-adopted models in the KTM model range. Riders who still wish to experience the new TRACK model are encouraged to contact their local authorised KTM dealer to join the waiting list. Alternatively, customers can explore immediate options to purchase the road-ready KTM 990 RC R, offering the same race-inspired DNA in a street-legal package.
Suzuki has launched two new graphics kit options for its GSX-S1000 and GSX-8S models. They follow the launch of a kit for the GSX-8R last month.
Available from £160* for the 8S, and £250* for the GSX-S1000, the kits can be purchased from authorised Suzuki dealerships at point of sale or retrospectively, for existing customers that want to add something extra to their machines.
On the GSX-S1000 the wrap adds bold Suzuki branding to the side of the tank and radiator shrouds, with lines that flow from the seat unit to the front mudguard. The 8S’ sticker kit employs the same effect as the model’s own logo design, with broken chevrons running along the seat, tank, and side panels.
The £10,999 GSX-S1000 is currently available on a low-rate finance offer of 1.9% APR over a three-year PCP or HP deal. Buyers of the 8S will benefit from a £300 dealer deposit contribution, reducing the OTR price to just £7,999. Both come on Suzuki’s 10-year-warranty scheme.

To make it even easier for customers to put a new motorcycle in the garage this winter and prepare for the forthcoming spring, Suzuki has dropped the prices of a number of key models in its range, via a healthy dealer contribution.
Suzuki dealers will be offering a £1,000 deposit contribution on the GSX-S1000GT+ sports tourer, and the GSX-8T and GSX-8TT modern retros. There will also be a £300 contribution from authorised Suzuki retailers on the GSX-8S middleweight naked.
As a result, the £1,000 contribution reduces the OTR price of the GSX-S1000GT+ – complete with its standard-fit 36-litre panniers – to just £11,999. The 8TT drops to £8,999, and the 8TT to £8,599. The £300 contribution to the 8S makes it £7,999 OTR. The new OTR prices are available to both finance and cash buyers.
The 8T and 8TT pack Suzuki’s award-winning 776cc parallel twin engine into retro-inspired packages; the 8T takes inspiration from Suzuki’s T500, while the 8TT is a clear nod to the GS1000S. Along with the 8S, they feature a bi-directional quickshifter as standard and a choice of power modes and traction control settings. The punchy, torque-laden motor is wrapped in a steel frame with a separate bolt-on subframe.
All four models are also currently included in Suzuki's offer of free heated grips, which runs until the end of January 2026, and all come with up-to-10-year-warranty.
The price reduction further underlines Suzuki’s commitment to making it easier for customers to plan ahead and own a new motorcycle ready for the season ahead, following the reduction of its rate of finance on several other models in the range.

Suzuki has revealed a new SV-7GX, which was unveiled today at Eicma in Milan, Italy. The covers were also pulled off an updated GSX-S1000GX.
The SV-7GX uses an updated version of Suzuki’s proven – and somewhat legendary – 645cc V-twin engine, which is now fully-compliant with the latest Euro5+ emissions regulations. Peak power is 73PS and peak torque is 64Nm. Aiding efficiency and performance is a new magneto, transmission gears, airbox, a ride-by-wire throttle, and a new exhaust system.
As the GX suffix suggests, the SV-7GX will provide a middleweight sports crossover option in the Suzuki lineup, alongside the range-topping GSX-S1000GX.
A steel trellis frame is equipped with suspension from KYB, which provides a plush ride quality designed to make it easy to cover distance in comfort on the 7GX. The seat height remains accessible for a multitude of riders at 795mm. Wheels are new cast aluminium 17”, front and rear, and are shod with Pirelli Angel GT 2 tyres. They work with the chassis to provide the sport element to the new sports crossover. Tokico calipers and twin 290mm discs provide the stopping power.
Tall, wide, tapered aluminium ‘bars provide an upright and comfortable riding position, but place weight over the front tyre enough to generate feel and allow riders to enjoy the sporty side of the 7GX when away from the motorway or dual carriageways. Handguards come as standard.
On the electronics side, smartphone connectivity comes as standard and allows riders to access everything from maps to contacts and messages from intuitive switchgear on the left handlebar. All information is displayed via a colour TFT screen, which also indicates the selected throttle map, with three to choose from, as well as the chosen traction control setting, also with three to choose from, as well as off. There’s a USB-C charging port on the left hand side. The electronics package also includes a standard-fit bi-directional quickshifter for seamless up and down gear changes.
Wind-tunnel tested bodywork shields the rider from the worst of the elements and provides aerodynamic efficiency, with styling cues taken from the bigger GSX-S1000GX. There’s a 17.4-litre fuel tank. Lighting is full LED all round, with a new asaerial design at the front for improved illumination and visibility while cornering.
An accessories catalogue includes a 45-litre top box, soft panniers, tank bags, and heated grips.
Pricing for the SV-7GX will be announced in due course, with the arrival set for late summer, 2026.
Suzuki has also announced updates to the GSX-S1000GX. The ultimate sports crossover model – which was revealed at Eicma only two years ago – has received a round of subtle updates to further improve its performance as a motorcycle adept at both covering long distances in speed and comfort, as well as offering up sporting intentions when the rider wants to enjoy a more twisty, winding route.
A suite of changes includes the addition of new winglets to the GX’s fairing, improving downforce and enhancing stability at high speeds. Modifications to the mirror mountings reduce vibrations for clearer rearward visibility.
The GSX-S1000GX puts out 152PS and 106Nm of torque from its 999cc inline four-cylinder engine. A twin-spar aluminium frame and GSX-R-derived swingarm is suspended by semi-active electronic suspension from Showa.
A colour TFT screen shows selected modes of a plethora of rider aids, including seven IMU-governed traction control settings, and the ability to disengage entirely. Those traction control settings are also linked to Suzuki’s roll torque control system and an anti-wheelie system. Lean-angle sensitive ABS, a bi-directional quickshifter, and cruise control also come as standard, along with smartphone connectivity.
In the UK the GSX-S1000GX will be available solely as a GX+ variant, which means it will come with free 36-litre panniers as standard.
It will arrive in early 2026 with an OTR price of £14,999.
Suzuki also confirmed that the e-Address, first revealed at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo in New Delhi in January this year, will form part of its European model range in 2026, More information will be released in due course.
