2000 Suzuki GSX-R 750 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Suzuki's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2000 Suzuki GSX-R 750 relies on a 740 cc (45.2 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 141 HP (102.9 kW) at 11,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 190.5 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the GSX-R 750 measures 166 kg (366 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.85 HP/kg (1.18 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 829 mm (32.6 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 280 km/h (174 mph).
