Faired sportbike based on GSX-8S breaks cover.
Information
The engine is the same 270-degree crank, 776cc parallel twin that’s used in the GSX-8S and the V-Strom 800DE, putting out an unchanged 81.8 hp at 8,500 rpm and 57.5 lb.-ft. at 6,800 rpm. Far from superbike numbers but enough to have some fun without scaring yourself with every twitch of your right wrist.
