The front suspension was a  inverted telescopic, coil spring, oil damped while the rear was equipped with a link type, coil spring, oil damped. The GSX-R750 was fitted with a 4.49 Gallon (17.00 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 485.02 pounds (220.0 Kg). The wheelbase was 54.72 inches (1390 mm) long.

==1985 - 1988 Suzuki GSX-R 750==
With over 100 HP output, the GSX-R 750 was a detuned version of the GS1000R racer. The street-legal limited version GSX-R750R model was introduced for 1986. The basic specifications of the bike were the same as for the standard model (except for the seat height) but the the ”double R” model offered some interesting goodies that improved an already great bike.

The '''GSX-R750''' was built to compete in the various worldwide championships as well as to be used on the street. It is considered as one the very first street-legal racers, there had been a number of sports machines but the GSX-R750 was something else. It was a revolutionary [[motorcycle]] with specifications like over 100 [[hp]] power output, less than 180 kg dry mass, 55° leaning angle, lightweight alloy [[cradle frame|double-cradle perimeter frame]], 18-inch wheels and streamlined design based on the factory Formula 1 and Endurance racers. Upon its introduction in 1985, Suzuki's PR department claimed that it was the first aluminum-alloy framed production motorcycle; the truth was that the German firm [[Ardie]] had beaten them to it back in 1930.

The '89 GSX-R750R (RR) was a revision to the previous long-stroke format of the original GSX-R mainly aimed at small teams who wanted to continue using their hard-earned tuning knowledge.  It came with special race bodywork and significant revisions to make the bike a true "out of the crate" racer.

The Fourth Generation was the first generation to feature water-cooled engines bringing a huge boost in performance and reliability.  This Generation was concurrent with the previous generation depending on export market.
