A year after the presentation of the GSX-R750, a big brother with a 1100 cc engine was born. Like its older brother, the GSX-R1100 had a box-frame (steel, not aluminum), full fairing, full-floater rear swing and a four-cylinder four-stroke engine. The inverted Showa front forks together with the new 130/60ZR17 Michelin front tire gave the bike better stability in the front fork and better handling. Even the rear shocker was new, and the rear tire wider (180/55 ZR 17).
