EICMA news: no turbo-powered motorcycle at Suzuki in 2016

As the near-finalized GSX-R1000 takes center stage on the Suzuki stand in Milan alongside the resurrected SV650, the RM-Z250 motocross and the "new" VanVan 200, MNC is surprised not to discover the final version of the Recursion with a turbocharged engine, a project presented in 2013 and replaced

As the near-finalized GSX-R1000 takes center stage on the Suzuki stand in Milan alongside the resurrected SV650, motocross and the "new" VanVan 200, MNC is surprised not to discover the final version of the Recursion turbocharged engine, designed and put back in the spotlight with its twin-cylinder of around 600 cc.

"La Recursion will not be one of our new products for 2016"

"The project has not been abandoned: we are working hard on it, but the Recursion will not actually be part of our 2016 novelties", reveals Dominique Li-Pat-Yuen, marketing and communication manager of Suzuki France, in recalling that the total redesign of the GSX-R1000 monopolized a lot of resources.

"This motorcycle will indeed lead to a commercial reality", insists the French communicator when MNC suggests that it may be a concept without a future, only intended to create a buzz. "We assured it a few years ago and we maintain it: the time of the presentation of concept without commercial future behind is over at Suzuki".

However, the French subsidiary cannot give us a precise date of arrival of this enticing roadster, whose vertical twin "EX7" equipped with a turbo would be able to output 100 hp and especially 100 Nm from 4500 rpm. At this stage, it is also impossible to know the exact progress of the project…

No other new 2016 Suzuki in Paris

The reports concerning the Recursion go back to the spring and report a patent filing for a turbo engine cooled by an Intercooler and a possible link to the reintroduction of the names Gamma and Katana in the United States. Finally, it should be noted that Suzuki France confirms that no other Suzuki new product will be unveiled in 2016, in particular at the Paris Motorcycle Show in early December..
