In anticipation of our launch event, to be held on the 24th February 2007 for the NEW GSX-R1000K7, we can now give you some more exclusive product information to whet your appetite.
This 2007 model is packed with new features and benefits that will again set the standard for the Superbike class.
The K7 model now produces 185ps at 12,000 rpm compared to the K6
(178ps at 11,000 rpm), due to a number of engine modifications.
The main NEW features of this model include:
1. Selectable 3-way power mode (Mode A, B, C)
Mode A – To make best use of engine performance throughout the throttle range, the engine characteristic has been set for a sharp response to throttle
Mode B – Allowing the same maximum output as “Mode A”, the engine response to throttle operation is slightly milder than “Mode A”.
Mode C – This restricts power throughout the engine range and provides a soft response to throttle operation. This mode is convenient for relaxed riding, long touring and riding in slippery conditions.
2. Electronically controlled steering damper
3. Position adjustable footpegs
4. Dual Muffler (Muffler made of titanium and aluminium)
5. Iridium Spark plugs
6. Idle Speed Control (ISC) Valve
The 2007 recommended on the road retail is £8,949.00.
