The '''[[Suzuki]] GS 1000E''' was a Air Cooled, Four Stroke, Transverse Four Cylinder, DOHC Naked [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Suzuki]] in 1978. Max [[torque]] was 61.22 ft/lbs (83.0 Nm) @ 6500 RPM. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 89.98 HP (67.1 KW) @ 8200 RPM. 
 
==Engine==
A 69.9mm [[bore]] x 69.9mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 997.0 cubic centimeters. 
 
==Drive==
The bike has a 5-Speed transmission. Power was moderated via the Wet multi-plate. 
 
==Chassis==
It came with a 3.50 V19 front [[tire]] and a 4.50 V17 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via double discs 295 mm in the front and a Single disc 295 mm in the rear. The front suspension was a  Telehydraulic Foks while the rear was equipped with a Swinging Arm Forks With Adjustable Shock Absorbers. The wheelbase was 59.29 inches (1506 mm) long.

The Suzuki GS 1000E was based around the successful GS 750, which was the lightest of the 750's available at the time. What Suzuki wanted was a simple design, that benefited from solid engineering and light weight. And they succeeded. The GS 1000E was only slightly heavier than its smaller brother, which was quite an achievement. By lengthening the stroke of the (relatively short stroke) GS 750 engine from 56,4 to 70 mm the cylinder displacement was enlarged from 748 to 997 cc.
