The bike rides on a Show SFF-BP upside-down fork and a link-type monoshock at the rear with adjustable preload. Braking is handled by dual 310 mm front discs and a single 240 mm disc at the rear.

In India, the Suzuki GSX-8R is available in three colours: Metallic Matte Sword Silver, Metallic Triton Blue and Metallic Matte Black No.2.
