NEW GSX-R750 Launch in Granada
Mar 2008
UK press got their first taste of the all-new GSX-R750 today, as Suzuki GB hosted an exclusive launch event at the Guadix race circuit near Granada in Spain.
Arriving from the UK last night, 10 members of UK press sat down to a technical presentation this morning at the launch base hotel in Granada, learning how Suzuki have improved the ‘thinking mans sports bike’.
By 10.30am the first track sessions were taking place at the Guadix circuit, with MCN’s tester Michael Neeves first out on bike number one.
Talking about the bike after his first track session, Michael said, “It’s not an easy bike to better, but first impressions of the new 2008 version are good. The motor feels strong, and I hope to explore the chassis’ ability more as the day moves on”.
In attendance at this exclusive UK press event are testers from MCN, Bike, Performance Bikes, Superbike, Fast Bikes, The Daily Telegraph, TWO Magazine, plus testers from the lifestyle magazines.
Tomorrow will see a test session on the roads near to the venue, including pictures on the highest road in Europe!
