Suzuki started out making weaving looms, and there is still something of the practical inventor about the company. It moved into motorized bicycles in the early 1950s and grew into one of Japan's big four motorcycle makers, with a reputation for engineering that is clever, durable and occasionally gloriously eccentric. Its bikes have often been the underdogs that punched above their weight. It remains part of the wider Suzuki Motor group, whose small cars dominate India through its Maruti Suzuki affiliate.
The landmarks are many: the GSX-R750 of 1985, which brought a true race-replica to the street; the GSX-R1000 that later dominated superbike racing; the Hayabusa of 1999, the bird-named hyperbike that became a legend of top speed; the SV650 twin beloved by racers and commuters alike; and the V-Strom adventure bikes that quietly rack up miles around the world. Suzuki won the MotoGP title in 2020 with Joan Mir, then left the series after 2022 to cut costs.
In India, Suzuki Motorcycle India is a force in scooters, with the Access 125 and Burgman Street, and sells the Gixxer, V-Strom SX and big bikes including the Hayabusa. Electric scooters such as the e-Access mark its entry into battery power. Elsewhere, the lineup of GSX-8 twins, V-Stroms and the reborn Katana keeps Suzuki relevant against Honda, Yamaha and Kawasaki. Coverage here includes launches, sales, India-market news, recalls, racing history and the company's slow, careful turn toward electric two-wheelers.
