DRAG BIKE FOR 360 VIEW
Influenced by road race machines of the 1970s and 1980s - such as the Yoshimura GS1000 AMA superbike - the 8TT wraps its award-winning engine in period race bike-inspired bodywork, finished with sporty detailing from the seat to the decals on the fairing and tank.

Though sporting retro bodywork, next generation performance comes from Suzuki's award-winning 776cc, DOHC, 270° crank parallel twin engine, widely praised for its abundance of torque and low-down drive.
With a round headlight, bar-end mirrors, and paint schemes inspired by classic bikes of past decades, the 8TT embodies Suzuki's retro spirit.
A headlight cowling that bears more than a passing resemblance to the famous GS1000 superbike and road-going GS1000S, plus a sporty seat and racy lower cowling, the 8TT draws heavy inspiration from Suzuki's racing heritage.
Aping the design of retro fuel tanks, such as the T500, the 8TT 16.5 litre tank allows riders to go further between fill-ups, while also allowing freedom of movement and a comfortable riding position.
