2026 Suzuki GSX-8R Kiiro Limited Edition: A GREAT FIRST SPORTBIKE CHOICE.
Introducing the 2026 Suzuki GSX-8R Kiiro Limited Edition…
The award-winning GSX-8R, but in limited edition form. Taking its name from the Japanese translation of yellow, the GSX-8R Kiiro Limited Edition packs all of the 8R’s existing qualities, but stands out further thanks to its bright yellow bodywork, contrasting with black decals, and comes with a smattering of extras from the Suzuki accessories catalogue.
Suzuki has launched a GSX-8R Kiiro limited edition, with just 60 available from UK dealerships. With an OTR price of £9,599, the Kiiro edition GSX-8R comes with bright yellow bodywork with black logos, grey wheels and grey aluminium subframe, and a smattering of extras from the Suzuki accessories catalogue.
In addition to the yellow bodywork – from which the Kiiro edition derives its name – the limited GSX-8Rs will come with a single seat cowl, smoked screen, Gilles billet aluminium brake and clutch levers, a tank pad, and a two-tone seat adorned with a GSX logo.
