Suzuki has unveiled two eye-catching new motorcycles that fuse classic styling with cutting-edge performance.
The GSX-8T and GSX-8TT are the latest additions to the brand’s award-winning 800cc platform, bringing a wave of retro inspiration to the modern rider.
Both bikes are powered by Suzuki’s acclaimed 776cc parallel twin engine, with a 270-degree crankshaft giving them a distinctive, punchy feel that shines in everyday riding.
The GSX-8T takes design cues from the golden era of motorcycling, evoking 60s and 70s charm with its round LED headlight, tuck-and-roll-style seat, brushed silver radiator shrouds and sleek bar-end mirrors.
The GSX-8TT, meanwhile, turns up the volume with bold race-inspired styling.
It shares the same headlight unit but adds a classic race-style cowling, complete with a screen for extra wind protection and flair.
Its lower cowling, colour-matched wheels, and heritage racing decals nod to Suzuki’s legendary Yoshimura GS1000 superbike.
Beneath the throwback aesthetics sits a thoroughly modern machine.
The steel twin-spar frame and aluminium swingarm deliver a sharp, stable ride, while KYB suspension, gold forks on the 8T and black on the 8TT provides confidence across a range of roads.
Stopping power comes from twin 310mm front discs with radially-mounted Nissin calipers.
Both bikes come with a colour TFT dash, three selectable power modes, three-stage traction control, and a slick bi-directional quickshifter.
A USB-C socket is also included, with fast-charging capability built in.
Finishing touches include lightweight bar-end mirrors, premium finishes on the seat units, and striking paint options.
The 8T comes in Candy Burnt Gold, Metallic Matt Steel Green, or Metallic Matt Black, while the 8TT gets added retro flair with its red and gold striping and matching coloured wheels.
At the core of both bikes is a rideable, versatile engine that delivers 82.9PS of peak power and 78Nm of torque.
Suzuki has also included a new lightweight battery developed by Eliiy Power, offering long life and quick starting with minimal self-discharge.
Prices start at £9,599 for the GSX-8T and £9,999 for the GSX-8TT.
Both come with Suzuki’s three-year warranty and the option of up to seven years’ coverage when serviced through an authorised dealer.
These are bikes built to turn heads and thrill riders with all the spirit of Suzuki’s heritage, reimagined for today’s roads.
