The 1989 "K" model introduced the 1100 cc engine (the first use of the now legendary [citation needed], highly tunable and strong 1127 cc air/oil cooled design) together with a new heavier, shorter and stiffer frame based on the previous year's updated and extremely well received GSX-R750J.

The first GSX-R of 1984 was a breakthrough model and the closest that any Japanese manufacturer had yet come to building a "race bike with lights".

[3] [4] Italian magazine Motociclismo claimed to have achieved 193.24 mph (310.99 km/h) testing the F4 R 312, more or less confirming the claimed speed and tying, if not exceeding, the 1999 Suzuki Hayabusa's tested speeds of 188–194 mph (303–312 km/h), [5] whereas Sport Rider were only able to achieve a 185.4 mph (298.4 km/h) top speed ...
Modifications in 700cc guise included taller pistons and slightly differing cam lift and timing. This plus a change in factory gear ratios enabled Suzuki to produce a US-only motorcycle with near-identical performance specifications to the GSX 750ES, even though engine displacement was 15 per cent smaller. The 50 per cent tariff was the reason ...
