4 July 2025
SUzuki relaunches the taste for vintage With a double blow: GSX-8T e GSX-8TT, two models that expertly merge the timeless design with cutting -edge technical content. Presented as a world preview, the two new nakeds are born in the European Suzuki style center in Turin and embody the concept “Retro Spirit, Next Generation Performance”.
The lines of the GSX-8T and GSX-8tt are inspired by one of the most iconic bikes in the history of the Japanese brand: the T500 Titan of 1967, First Suzuki model imported into Italy in 1970. And it is no coincidence that the abbreviation “T” reports directly to Titan, while in the GSX-8tt The second “t” stands for “timeless”, A reference to a design destined not to age.
The 8T is a pure naked, clean in the shapes and refined in detail. The sister GSX-8tt, on the other hand, adopts a sportier style thanks to the front windshield and the lower tip, clearly referring to the GS1000 as a competition of the AMA of the 80s.
SUzuki has not limited himself to replicating the past, but reinterpreted it with style. The 16.5 liter tank, with soft and enveloping shapes, recalls that of Titan, but integrates modern and functional surfaces. On the lighting front, Vintage calls merge with modernity thanks to the circular lighthouse with metal frame and LED, While the arrows and the rear light complete the hi-tech look.

There is no lack of attention to comfort: The 8T tuck and roll saddle promises comfort and style, while the 8tt adds a sports touch with red stitching.
The beating heart of the two GSX is a 776 cc parallel twin cylinder, four valves for cylinder, capable of delivering 83 hp at 8,500 rpm and a pair of 78 Nm at 6,800 rpm. The performances are combined with efficiency: 4.2 l/100 km in the mixed WMTC cycle.
