The updated 2011 Rizla Suzuki GSV-R which Álvaro Bautista will ride this period has been unveiled by the MotoGP team.
The machine which Álvaro Bautista will be riding in this season’s MotoGP World Championship is the final generation of the 800cc GSV-R four-stroke example Grand Prix bike, due to the alter in capacity limit to 1000cc next season. The latest – and most technologically advanced – version of Suzuki’s MotoGP challenger features an engine that has enhanced on its horsepower, driveability and toughness through many comprehensive development changes throughout winter and pre-season testing. It also features improved acceleration characteristics – especially out of slower corners – to assist Bautista in his challenge for MotoGP glory.
To praise the upgraded engine specifications, Suzuki’s Factory Engineers have also better the chassis performance by important developments to the stiffness balance of frame and swing-arm and have optimised the weight balance geometries from last season’s machine. These updates to the chassis have been paired with the most higher ECU software ever used on a Suzuki Grand Prix machine, to give Bautista more exact traction and wheelie control without losing direct machine control or power, adding to the adaptability of the GSV-R in all conditions.
The 2011 Rizla Suzuki GSV-R also skin a revised Troy Lee Designs inspired livery, incorporating a new, modern and dynamic Rizla logo that will be launched by the Rizla Suzuki MotoGP team. The 2011 Rizla Suzuki GSV-R will make its official first appearance during this weekend’s final pre-season test at Qatar, before making its racing debut – also at Qatar – on Sunday 20th March.
