If there’s one thing Suzuki’s known for, it’s playing the long game. While some brands push the envelope with new tech, radical redesigns, and headline-grabbing updates almost every model year, Suzuki tends to take a more laid-back approach. It’s a brand that doesn’t fix what isn’t broken—and in many ways, that’s become its signature move.
Take a look at the GSX-S1000. It still uses a version of the K5 GSX-R1000 engine, an inline-four from nearly two decades ago, and yet it continues to deliver the goods. It may not be the most cutting-edge naked on the market, but it’s a solid performer that riders trust. That philosophy runs deep across the lineup—and nowhere is it more obvious than in the long-running Burgman 400.
