On the occasion of its annual convention with, Suzuki unveiled to its network some of its next new motorcycle and scooter products. According to our information, a GSR, a DL V-Strom and a Burgman 400 would thus be expected for 2014, while the Burgman 125 and 650 would evolve from 2013.

A GSR and a DL "L4" in 2014

Contacted by Site, Suzuki France indicates that a "GSR L4" and a "DL L4" (L4 corresponding to "2014 vintage" in the Suzuki nomenclature) were mentioned during its recent annual convention.

Knowing that the and the, this information tends to suggest that Suzuki is about to – finally! – launch a GSR 1000 (a big roadster powered by the 4-cylinder of the GSX-R 1000) and get back to the very fashionable trail-GT market by relaunching the career of the DL 1000 V-Strom.

The hypothesis is all the more likely as the launch of a sporty roadster and a large-capacity road trail has – for some time now – been demanded by many Suzuki customers. But also through its network of dealers and its importer in France, explains Beatrice Lecomte, press officer of the French subsidiary. !

Suzuki France would however like to clarify that "the displacement of these two models was not mentioned during the convention: Suzuki can, for example, decide to launch a GSR 250 cc to invest certain markets", adds – to confuse the issue and preserve the effect of surprise? – the French press officer.

As a precaution, therefore, and even if their commercial reality has never seemed so credible and timely as the segments of roadsters and trails are currently on the rise, it is better to wait a little longer before slashing the champagne in honor of the GSR 1000 and DL 1000 V-Strom 2014 !

The French press service of the manufacturer of Hamamatsu also wishes to cut short the rumors of a road version built on the basis of this hypothetical GSR1000. "This project was absolutely not mentioned during the convention", assures us Beatrice Lecomte. Which does not mean that it does not exist or that it will never see the light of day…

All-new, beautiful Burgman 125, 400 and 650 ?

Finally, Suzuki France announced to us that the Burgman range of scooters will undergo many changes in the next two years: 2013 will see the arrival of the Burgman 125 "L3" and the Burgman 650 "L3", while a Burgman 400 " L4 "will be discovered in 2014. However, it will be necessary to wait to discover all the details of their reshuffle: stay tuned !
