New Suzuki GSX-8T & GSX-8TT Revealed | Auto Live

The Suzuki GSX‑8T and GSX‑8TT are neo‑retro roadsters built atop the GSX‑8R’s 776 cc parallel‑twin platform, delivering ~83 hp @ 8,500 rpm and 78 Nm @ 6,800 rpm, complete with a 6‑speed gearbox and bi‑directional quickshifter. Styling is retro‑inspired: the GSX‑8T sports a round LED headlamp, flat‑wide bars, bar‑end mirrors and a 16.5‑litre fuel tank reminiscent of the 1960s T500 Titan, while the GSX‑8TT adds a sporty touch—the headlight cowl, belly pan and race‑bike bonnet cues evoking Suzuki’s 1970s racers. Chassis and tech are modern: steel frame, USD KYB forks up front, monoshock, 17‑inch alloy wheels, three ride modes, traction control, full‑LED lighting, sleek TFT instruments and low‑RPM assist. Weighing in at ~201 kg (8T) and ~203 kg (8TT), seat height ~810 mm, both deliver a blend of vintage style and usable performance.
