2009 Suzuki GSX-R750 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2009 Suzuki GSX-R750 sport motorcycle, Suzuki relies on a 750 cc (45.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 86.3 Nm (63.7 lb-ft) at 11,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 70.0 x 48.7 mm (2.8 x 1.9 inches) with a 12.5:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the GSX-R750 measures 198 kg (437 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,405 mm (55.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 309 km (192 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 271 km/h (168 mph).

Within MotoLibrary's Suzuki archive, this model family spans 18 indexed model years from 2008 to 2025, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
