Suzuki GSX-R 750 1996

In 1996, Suzuki listened to its customers and brought the Suzuki GSX-R 750 1996back to where it should have been. With a new chassis, new engine, 39 mm carburetors, a new line was reduced by 20 kg weight, weighed 179 kg with 128 horsepower and precise handling.

The Suzuki GSX-R 750 1996 was made using technologies derived directly from the 500cc GP racing. He even looked a lot like the Suzuki RGV 500 that will drive Kevin Schwantz in the World Championship last year.

The new Suzuki GSX-R 750 1996 was as extreme as the first model GSXR, a decade before. The wheelbase was reduced to 1,400 mm and the new framework of 24 ° twin-spar aluminum (instead of double bed) was very rigid.

The new engine was an impressive piece of engineering, being the engine more compact and lightweight class. New race distance (72 x 46 mm) engine, water cooled, DOHC four-valve, moved 25 degrees forward.

SCEM cylinders riding (Silicon Carbide Electro-Plate) to reduce the passage of the cylinder. This year introduces the new air induction system, SRAD (Suzuki Ram Air Direct) and electronic control BDSR of 39mm carburetors.

The SRAD Suzuki Ram stands for Air Direct (Direct Air Force Suzuki) is a system used by the manufacturer in some of his Suzuki motorcycle engines. Is a direct shot of air, usually from the nose of the fairing, which goes directly to a box or airbox overpressure, where the dynamic pressure induced by the fast forward, the air pressure increases over the air, being then mixed with fuel and subsequently injected into the cylinders. System effectiveness increases with speed, since the pressure in the airbox increases with her, thus resulting in a supercharger system, acting the same way that a volumetric compressor mechanic, but without needing employ any element added to the motor.

The lightweight magnesium was used to cover the cylinder head, starter motor, clutch, transmission gear and other areas. These and other weight savings allowed the new model achieve the same dry weight of 179 kg than the original model of the Suzuki GSX-R 750 1985.

The 43 mm inverted forks and rear suspension was fully adjustable.
