Suzuki TL1000R


The Suzuki TL1000R is a high performance V-twin semi-naked sportbike produced by Suzuki from 1998 to 2003.. It is in a similar vein of many Ducatis and the Honda VTR1000. The V-twin gives it a great deal of torque and makes it wheelie prone.

OverviewEdit

The TL1000R is a great alternative to the in-line sport bikes. This high-performance v-twin bike is equipped with a liquid-cooled engine which can produce just under 135 horsepower and is not intended for novice or inexperienced riders. Basically, you're looking at the v-twin brother of the liter-class GSX-R1000, a bike whose specific rumble is impossible to mistake for anything else.

Being a bike developed for track use and then upgraded to a street-legal trim, the TL1000R arrives with forged pistons, lightweight and strong connecting rods, a high-capacity airbox, adjustable suspensions and top-drawer, sport-class brakes.

To the untrained eye, the TL1000R could easily look like the Gixxers, but the fairing badge is telling a completely different story. Putting things bluntly, there is something almost magical with v-twin sport bikes. Fast and sporting the same nerve like its in-line 4 siblings, the 2003 MY TL1000R is a track-focused machine which can also provide thrilling sensation on the street.

Race-derived technologies and components make sure the bike delivers top-drawer performance in all scenarios. Add in enhanced-aerodynamics for the fairing, adjustable suspensions, a comprehensive dashboard with LCD screens and the sear seat cowl delivered as standard equipment for a truly worthy race-bred machine.
