Design and build like custom back in 2005. Suzuki’s 180 HP, six-cylinder concept Stratosphere has an objective to dominate the roads.
Stratosphere
The prototype had a transverse narrow-bore, and the engine is narrower when compared with Hayabusa’s engine.
Plus the engine also had 100 lb-ft torque. Target was responsible for the design.
The Stratosphere prototype came with many goodies like the four LED headlights with some cool adjustable short handlebars.
Windshield too was adjustable and electric. Saddlebags came attached with the invisible attachments.
The electronic package had a blue tooth for audio and built-in GPS, and then the prototype came with the blue helmet.
Modes for manual and auto transmission too were built-in.
Plus it had an antitheft keyfob system. In August 2007 Suzuki had well approved the Stratosphere to enter into production.
And Suzuki had big plans to release its details and pricing. Also, the prototype would have looked similar to the production version, and the ABS fairings would take the place of aluminium fairings.
Turbocharger
News of Suzuki bringing the Turbocharger came in last March 2018. However, Suzuki has kept mum about there project since then.
By the way, Suzuki had filed multiple turbo related patents in the past and for the above recursion engines. Suzuki has already applied for a mysterious V-Twin Turbo patent.
In 2018 Tokyo Motor Show we thought Suzuki might display the Turbocharger however we were not able to see it.
Hypernaked
There is another segment wherein Suzuki is more silent, and it is Hypernakeds.
Competitors
And the talks started when Kar Lee had rendered the hypernaked for Honda.
With 205 hp of peak power and a top speed of over 300 km/h, MV Agusta has brought the concept of hyper-naked to its extreme limit, making it the absolute benchmark within the category.
We are talking about the MV Agusta Brutale 1000 Serie Oro.
Kawasaki officially unveiled the Z H2 Supercharged at last EICMA. The intake system comes with a supercharger that is capable of making 197 hp on the tap.
Ducati went one step ahead and brought the Streetfighter V4.
Super naked with a high and wide handlebar. The 1103cc “Desmosedici Stradale” engine produces a maximum output of 208ps.
It just weighs 178kg. The naked beast comes with a biplane wing and latest generation electronic package. A concept called “Fight Formula” was introduced, and the design was aggressive and exciting.
Well, the above meant Suzuki has a long list of bikes to be unveiled, and we are sure the motorcycle enthusiasts are waiting.
