Elevated Performance: SUZUKI GSX-R1000 Custom
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "SUZUKI GSX-R1000" custom by Webike community user "Fauna". The YOSHIMURA Tri-Oval Slip-On Silencers fitted on this bike bring out the full potential of the 998cc four-cylinder engine, boosting both performance and sound quality.
This bike, known for its impressive acceleration, also demands high braking capability. To meet this need, the owner has installed GOODRIDGE mesh hoses, enhancing braking control. Additionally, SWAGE-LINE rail position banjo bolts improve access to the caliper mounting bolts, making upkeeping the calipers easier. The brake and clutch levers were upgraded to ACTIVE foldable billet levers, designed to reduce damage to the levers in case of a fall.
Mirrors play a big role in the bike’s aesthetics, and this GSX is equipped with stylish mirrors from Magical Racing. "They're super cool," says the owner. For the rear, a fender eliminator kit from ACTIVE has been installed, giving the bike a more streamlined look.
Performance upgrades extend to the drive system as well. The owner installed a SUNSTAR lightweight duralumin rear sprocket, which improves acceleration response while adding a sophisticated touch of color. This sprocket is attached with TITANIUM 64 nuts, crafted from 6AL-4V titanium, which is as strong as chromoly but 40-50% lighter than steel, helping to reduce unsprung weight.
To protect the radiator, an AGRAS radiator core guard was installed when the bike was purchased. According to the owner, "even After 30,000 km, the radiator and oil cooler remain in excellent condition".
