Overview

The Suzuki GSX 8T is a naked motorcycle produced for 2026. Its liquid-cooled, 776 cm³ four-stroke parallel twin makes 81 hp (60 kW) and 78 Nm at 6,800 rpm, with a wet weight of 202 kg.

The 815 mm seat height may make it harder for shorter riders to plant both feet at a stop. The fully adjustable 41 mm Showa inverted fork and spring-preload-adjustable rear shock allow suspension setup changes, while the quickshifter eases gear changes and the slipper clutch helps calm the rear wheel on hard downshifts.

Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Adjustable suspension

    The fully adjustable front fork and rear spring-preload adjustment let riders tailor the suspension setup.

  • Quickshifter and slipper clutch

    The quickshifter reduces the need to use the clutch for gear changes, while the slipper function helps control the rear wheel during hard downshifts.

  • ABS braking

    ABS can help prevent the wheels from locking during hard braking.

Things to consider

  • Wet weight

    At 202 kg wet, the motorcycle can take more effort to maneuver at walking pace or when moving it by hand.

  • Seat height

    An 815 mm seat may make it difficult for shorter riders to place both feet flat on the ground.
