1993 Suzuki GSX-R 1100 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Suzuki's motorcycle lineup, the 1993 Suzuki GSX-R 1100 utilizes a 1074 cc (65.5 cu in) in-line four, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 155 HP (113.1 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 114.7 Nm (84.6 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 144.3 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (10,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the GSX-R 1100 measures 231 kg (509 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.67 HP/kg (1.49 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 815 mm (32.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
