To the team of Suzuki engineers responsible for the GSX-R1000, Own The Racetrack is not just a slogan; it is a way of life.

It is a life dedicated to making the most successful open-class motorcycle in the history of production-based racing even better. By applying the latest technology and the most recent hard-fought racing experience. And keeping the GSX-R1000 well ahead of the would-be competition.

The key is the motorcycles' ability to do precisely what the rider wants, when the rider wants, how the rider wants. Accelerate. Brake. Corner. Repeat. Make it easier for the rider, and the results will show. With better lap times on the racetrack, and more fun on the road.

It is called total performance. It is what makes the 2008 Suzuki GSX-R1000 the top performer. And it is why Suzuki riders Own The Racetrack.
