2021 Suzuki Ecstar GSX-RR Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Suzuki for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2021 Suzuki Ecstar GSX-RR features a 1000 cc (61 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 236 HP (172.3 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 236 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
