The GSX-R750 weighed in at 20% less than the GS750. An uncompromising street-legal racer, the oil-cooled, lightweight engine is mated to a hydraulic clutch and six-speed gearbox. The 1988 J-model retained the essence of the original whilst being more efficient. The bore was increased to 73mm and it has larger inlet valves. The smaller crank gives a stronger bottom end. Aerodynamics improved the high-speed road holding. 1992 saw the introduction of the watercooled DOHC 16 valve 750 in addition to a newly designed frame. Performance was not noticeably higher.
The new short stroke engine was compact and surrounded by a big-beam perimeter frame.
