Is the GSX 8TT Suzuki’s Best-Looking Motorcycle Ever?

Suzuki is stepping into the spotlight with the new GSX 8TT, a motorcycle that channels vintage charm while packing real modern tech. Inspired by the race-bred GS1000 from the 1970s, the 8TT brings the café racer aesthetic into the present with precision. A round LED headlight, bar-end mirrors, and a sculpted mini fairing at the front give it that classic race look, but there is a lot more happening beneath the surface.

At the core, the GSX 8TT is powered by a 776 cubic centimeter parallel twin engine, delivering approximately 83 horsepower and 78 Newton meters of torque. Suzuki has paired this with a six-speed gearbox, ride-by-wire throttle, and a bi-directional quickshifter—giving riders a smooth and connected feel at every shift. Handling is taken care of by a steel frame, an aluminum swingarm, KYB upside-down forks, and front dual disc brakes with ABS.

The electronics suite is impressive, too. Suzuki’s Intelligent Ride System includes selectable ride modes, traction control, and a five-inch full-color TFT display. The seat height is a comfortable 810 millimeters, and the 16.5-liter fuel tank means you will not be making constant stops. At 203 kilograms, it strikes the right balance between agility and stability.

The GSX 8TT is not just a looker—it is a legit daily rider and weekend thrill machine. It is where nostalgia meets new-school performance. If you are looking for a middleweight bike that stands out in both looks and capability, this one deserves serious attention.
