On the GSX-S1000 the wrap adds bold Suzuki branding to the side of the tank and radiator shrouds, with lines that flow from the seat unit to the front mudguard. The 8S sticker kit employs the same effect as the models own logo design, with broken chevrons running along the seat, tank, and side panels.

The 10,999 GSX-S1000 is currently available on a low-rate finance offer of 1.9% APR over a three-year PCP or HP deal. Buyers of the 8S will benefit from a 300 dealer deposit contribution, reducing the OTR price to just 7,999. Both come on Suzukis up-to-10-year-warranty scheme.
