Still heavy:
Curb Mass 203kg (448 lbs.)
Well heavier than the honda anyway. A lot light then it was for 08.
Suzuki is claiming a 448lb wet weight for the 2009 1k. I'm REALLY happy about the weight reduction.
Here are the weights from the SportRider 2008 1k shootout.
Weight
440 lb. (200kg) wet; 412 lb. (187kg) dry -- 08 1000RR
463 lb. (210kg) wet; 436 lb. (198kg) dry -- 08 ZX-10
469 lb. (213kg) wet; 441 lb. (200kg) dry -- 08 1k
464 lb. (210kg) wet; 436 lb. (198kg) dry -- 08 R1
I'm REALLY disappointed ABS is an option on the 09 1000RR and not on the 09 1k. I never thought I'd say this, but I'm gonna have to ride both the 09 1k and the 09 1000RR ABS before I make a decision.

Here we go what? :dunno
Just making an observation - looks like they're taking a page out of honda's book and going for "mass centralization" rather than trying to lower the CG.
And am I just missing the steering damper?

Scroll 1/2 way down
Nice looking dash and pipes look much better. Redline looks too have increased a bit

Ugh. I can't stand the front of the bike. Everything else looks phenomenal. Looks like I'll keep my '06 until 2011.
Maybe it will grow on me, but it hasn't with the 600/750.

That just shows you how much work Suzuki has been doing. That is a lot of weight to loose on a bike made for mass production when considering all the regulations it has to adhere to to.

Big Piston Fork---Bigger Valves---Higher Compression---999cc---:cheers
GSX-R1000 Features
GSX-R1000 Features
- <LI _extended="true">999cm3 4-cylinder powerplant, designed lighter and 59.6mm shorter from front to rear, delivers more power and torque, and enhanced throttle response across the entire rpm range.
<LI _extended="true">The new compact engine enabled 10mm shorter wheelbase and 33mm longer swingarm to improve racetrack performance. <LI _extended="true">New, more over-square bore x stroke of 74.5mm x 57.3mm (changed from 73.4mm x 59.0mm) gives the engine better overall tuning potential. The compression ratio is now 12.8:1, changed from 12.5:1. <LI _extended="true">The engine employs enlarged titanium valves in diameter, forged pistons, shot-peened conrods and Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)-plated cylinders integrated into the crankcase, reducing friction and improving heat transfer, durability and ring seal.
![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">12-hole fuel injectors produce a finer fuel mist for more complete combustion, reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. <LI _extended="true">Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) offers push-button selection of three performance settings to suit riding conditions and personal tastes. Now the switch is relocated on the left handlebar control module. <LI _extended="true">Iridium spark plugs produce a stronger spark for better combustion. <LI _extended="true">Large, efficient radiator with a trapezoidal shape developed on factory team racebikes and a trapezoidal engine oil cooler both help reduce drag.![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">Cable-operated back-torque-limiting clutch makes for efficient clutch operation with superb feel. <LI _extended="true">Unique Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) uses an under-engine chamber and low-slung, large-volume MotoGP-inspired titanium mufflers.![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">Twin-spar cradle frame made of five cast sections, mated with an arched swingarm made of three castings and one-piece die-cast rear subframe. <LI _extended="true">Big Piston Frontforks (BPF) with an endurance-race-proven design deliver superb feedback and responsive, stable operation, and are lightweight.<LI _extended="true">Rear shock absorber features adjustable rebound damping, spring preload, and both high-speed and low-speed compression damping.![Image]()
![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">Front brakes with fully floating 310mm discs and rigid, lightweight race-proven monoblock forged radial-mount calipers.![Image]()
![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">The edgy and clean GSX-R1000 styling incorporates fairing and bodywork details aimed at reducing turbulence and drag. <LI _extended="true">Attention to rider comfort includes a carefully shaped seat and adjustable footpegs. Tailsection cover included for solo rides or track days.![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">Sculpted fuel tank is lighter, while capacity remains 17.5 liters (4.6 US gal). <LI _extended="true">New look multi-reflector headlight with vertically stacked high and low-beam halogen bulbs centered between position lights on each side.![Image]()
<LI _extended="true">For Europe, the position lights each have layered lenses with blue coloring on the inside lens for an even sportier look. <LI _extended="true">Front and rear turn signals feature clear lenses over amber bulbs.![Image]()
- Instruments include a silver-ringed analog tachometer with LCD speedometer. LCD readouts include odometer, dual trip meters, reserve trip meter, clock, coolant temperature/oil pressure warning indicator, gear position indicator, lap timer/stopwatch, S-DMS setting indicator and bar-graph indicating the instrument lighting level, or brightness.

Can you post a reference to any data to support this claim? Works great for cars and ive read reviews that it reduced stopping distances on bikes on closed circuit testing, but ive never seen any real world data that it saves lives.
