Suzuki GSX-S1000, GSX-8S get new graphics kits for 2026
The Suzuki GSX-S1000 and GSX-8S have both received new graphics kits for 2026.
Suzuki has introduced new paint schemes for two of the bikes in its 2026 naked line-up: the Suzuki GSX-S1000 and the Suzuki GSX-8S.
Both paint schemes follow similar colour schemes – red, black, and silver – and are pretty striking, especially with their red wheels. They differ slightly, though, with a large ‘Suzuki’ down the side of the GSX-S1000, where the GSX-8S has its model name graphic on the tank.
The liveries are being introduced as graphic kits, meaning they are not only available on new bikes but also for people who already own a GSX-S1000 or GSX-8S to apply to their bike. Prices, excluding fitting, are £160 for the GSX-8S kit and £250 for the GSX-S1000.
The Suzuki GSX-S1000 features the same 999cc inline-four-cylinder engine as used in the GSX-R1000R superbike which provides 150bhp and 78lb-ft. The engine works in combination with an electronics suite that features Suzuki Intelligent Ride System, a two-way quickshifter, traction control, and a drive mode selector. Prices start at £10,999 and the bike also available on a 1.9% when financing through either a PCP or HP agreement at present.
The Suzuki GSX-8S, on the other hand, shares its 776cc parallel twin motor with the fully faired GSX-8R, meaning 82bhp and 58lb-ft. Thanks to a £300 dealer contribution, the GSX-8S can be had for £7,999, for which you also get a two-way quickshifter and a five-inch TFT dash among the specifications.
Both bikes are included in Suzuki’s up-to-10-year warranty scheme.
