If you’re into race bikes, then feast your eyes on
this limited edition Buildbase Suzuki GSX-R1000R replica, priced at £ 19,999. While the price does seem steep, you do get a numbered fuel tank,
multiple Yoshimura components and a host of genuine accessories.
The bike is meant to mimic the British Superbike and
Superstock 1000 racers of Bradley Ray, Richard Cooper and Billy McConnell,
using an accurate replica paint scheme. Also available are the Yoshimura
R11 SQ exhaust and hangar, and the Yoshimura mirror blanks for track use.
Genuine Suzuki accessories fitted to this bike
include engine case savers, brake and clutch lever guards, paddock stand
bobbins, a double bubble screen, pillion seat cowl, plus a tank protector and
fuel cap trim. Suzuki will even throw in a branded Ogio kit bag, paddock stand,
bike cover and a GSX-R garage mat.
The Buildbase Suzuki team has achieved wins in both
the superbike and superstock classes this season, while also securing three
podium finishes at Cadwell Park. Meanwhile, Billy McConnell keeps hold of the
National Superstock 1000 championship lead.
Suzuki customers in the UK can finance their
GSX-R1000R Buildbase replica just as they would the regular GSX-R1000R, using
the motorcycle brand’s current 2,3,4% multi-year finance campaign. While specs
aren’t mentioned, if they mirror those of the 2018 GSX-R1000R, it would mean
202 HP @ 13,200 rpm and 117.6 Nm @ 10,800 rpm. Top speed is 300
km/h.
