• A new, lighter and more precise Bosch Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) provides six-direction, three-axis, motion, and position information to the ECM, so instantaneous adjustments are made electronically.
• Applied for the first time on a GSX-R, Smart TLR Control automatically sets the response of the Roll Torque Control (RT) and the Lift Limiter (LIFT) to align to the Suzuki Traction Control System (TC) setting selected by the rider.
• Using information from a new Bosch IMU, the Motion Track Brake System (“cornering ABS”) has been updated to support the rider’s braking in various riding situations.

*Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price, excludes taxes, title, license and registration fees, destination freight and delivery charges, dealer fees, and optional equipment.

**The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider’s throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip.

***Depending on road surface conditions, such as wet, loose, or uneven roads, braking distance for an ABS-equipped vehicle may be longer than for a vehicle not equipped with ABS. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please drive carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.
