Suzuki’s 2008 GSV-R is its second generation 800cc four-stroke prototype Grand Prix machine, and is the most complex and technically advanced racing motorcycle Suzuki has ever produced.

14 January 2008 | 1 Comment
Rizla Suzuki MotoGP invited a select band of respected journalists to ride its GSV-R800 straight after the last race of the 2007 season at Valencia in Spain. Alan Cathcart was one of those lucky enough to get the chance to ride one of both Vermeulen’s and Hopkins’s bikes around the 4.005km Spanish circuit.

The Dawn Of A New Era For Rizla Suzuki
02 November 2006
Rizla Suzuki MotoGP began using its brand new 800cc MotoGP engine for the first time today and was quickly on the pace, as both racers posted times faster than their best from Sunday’s final 990cc race. John Hopkins led the way with a best of 1’33.14 from his 29 laps with team-mate Chris Vermeulen only fractionally behind, as the young Australian recorded a time of 1’33.17.

First Look at the new '07 800cc Suzuki GSV-R
08 October 2006
Rizla Suzuki made public their testing of the 2007 800cc GSV-R MotoGP bike at Sepang in Malaysia recently. As from next year Dorna, MotoGP organisers are changing the capacity of the bikes from 990cc to 800cc in a bid to slow the bikes down and quell fears that the bikes are becoming too fast and thus too dangerous. Of course, these bikes are lighter and so have a higher corner speed than the current 990's, meaning they're lapping only a second down so far on the current 990cc bikes.

Onward And Upward For Rizla Suzuki

With a completely new and much-improved 2006 version of the GSV-R MotoGP machine, and with backing from Rizla showing on its flanks, the Suzuki MotoGP team had every reason to look forward to the current 17-round season. After some promising tests and points scoring rides for both John Hopkins and new recruit Chris Vermeulen at the opening race of the year in Jerez, things looked well on track for better results soon thereafter.
