WHATEVER the GSR750 is like as a motorcycle, at least the name contains an arrangement of letters that's easy to say. You wouldn’t stumble over them or find people say “A what?”

Suzuki has fixed that for 2017 by giving the GSR the same awkward designation as the bigger naked bike in the range, the GSX-S1000.

So this is the GSX-S750, creating lineage where before there was randomness.

The name isn’t the only update. It’s been restyled to look more like the GSX-S1000 too, with new bodywork. Previously a belly pan was available as an accessory but now you get one for nothing.

There are chassis changes: the wheelbase is 5mm longer thanks to a new swing-arm and the suspension, which is adjustable for preload only, has revised settings at both ends.

The front brake has been upgraded, with four-pot radial-mounted Nissin calipers replacing two-pot sliding Tokico ones, and also new wavy discs.
