COMING SOON Japan Only Model GSX1400


"Coming soon exress your interest now"
Starting this adventure on a Suzuki GSX1400 in Japan is not just thrilling—it’s a rare and coveted opportunity. The GSX1400, produced between 2001 and 2008, has become a sought-after machine, especially in its homeland. As production halted years ago, spotting one in mint condition is like discovering a hidden gem. For motorcycle enthusiasts, the GSX1400 is a piece of living history—a beast of a machine with a throwback design, perfect for long, powerful rides. 

Riding a GSX1400 today is an exclusive experience. Its rarity, combined with its torque-heavy engine, gives you the feeling of commanding a true icon on the road. This makes embarking on a tour across Kansai, Shikoku, and Kyushu even more special. Not many riders get the chance to conquer Japan's breathtaking routes with a bike like this—it's an opportunity that feels almost custom-made for those who appreciate a blend of muscle and nostalgia in their touring machine.

As the GSX1400 becomes rarer, especially in pristine condition, riding one in Japan’s stunning countryside is like unlocking a dream scenario. You’re not just embarking on a scenic tour—you’re doing it with a bike that has an undeniable soul, history, and presence.

What to Expect

It is our goal at Bike Rentals Japan to give the customer total satisfaction.

On arrival at our rental shop you will be greeted by one of us who will take any outstanding  details that were not confirmed with the online booking and  finalise the contract to get you on the bike as soon as possible. At this stage we will confirm that you have viewed the safe riding in Japan video, fit you up with any gear that you may need, go over the bike to check off any prior damage and show you how to use the bike’s specific functions or controls as well as go over the standard equipment supplied. If you have booked a self guided tour and we haven’t supplied the route information previously then we will upload that to your smart phone at this time. We will also answer any questions you may have about the terms and conditions, the bike or your chosen tour route. Bike Rental Japan’s emergency numbers will also be supplied and confirmed and then you are free to get going on your adventure. This process can take as little as 10 minutes, however with a larger amount of outstanding details to be taken, gear fitment and adjustment, plus tour upload and explanations this can take much longer so please be prepared for that.

On return of the bike, everyone has a different experience here so we would love to listen to your adventure stories! We then give the bike a final inspection and if everything is fine you are freeto leave. Depending on how you got to our shop, the train station is only minutes away so youcan head on or return to Osaka with some of the best memories of a lifetime!

What's Included

Luggage
Side bags and top cases on some bikes.

Smart Phone Holder
A multi holder to fit all cell phones, these days phones are better than navigation devices so most customers opt for that. Please be sure your phone is waterproof.

USB Power Outlet
To charge your phone.

ETC Machine
For our customer’s convenience. Essential for highway travel in Japan, you can pay cash but withgloves etc this is a huge holdup compared to just riding through the toll gates.
Please note ETC (Electronic Highway Toll Collection) card rental.
Although we hope you stay off the highways and enjoy the back roads as much as possible it is sometimes necessary to use highways to make up time so most of our bikes are equipped with an ETC machine. ETC cards are available to rent if required at a rate of 1000 for the rental period. Accumulated tolls will be charged to the customer’s registered credit card at a later date when we receive the bill plus a 4% credit card processing fee. ETC cards work like credit cards and are linked to our shop’s credit card so are limited in number and may not be available, so we urge you to pay cash on the highways at the GREEN toll gates. Please select ETC card rental on the “Accessories” section of the booking form.

Emergency Roadside Kit
Security lock, Emergency puncture repair kit with pump and contact numbers for 24 hr emergency support.

Complementary Storage
Secure storage for any luggage you would like to leave behind while on your rental.

A Full Tank of Gas
