I always liked Suzuki's. They never let me down and always delivered.

My story with Suzuki is unfortunate but not at all the fault of Suzuki. When I started getting into bikes at 16, Suzuki was top dog in the sport bike world. Both GSXR was top of both 600 and 1000cc categories, and the 750 was in a class of its own. I got my licence at 18 and got my first big bike at 19, so was on a restricted licence of 33bhp at that time. This heavily strangled my SRAD 600 and I still managed to write it off when I slid off on ice. In short I owned just 1 Suzuki and never experienced the full power.

I think it looks great. Like it was designed by someone who is a fan of Masamune Shirow and Eighties mecha manga/anime. I want one.

Exactly :D

I absolutely LOVE the design. I'll be adding this to the garage. Very excited! Great review btw!

Thanks for the review! I'm 6'3" and I'm extremely happy to hear you compliment the comfort for taller riders. I thought I was dead set on a new Yamaha MT09SP and was gonna settle for a not as comfortable riding position (based on test riding the old version). This bike has changed my mind since its reveal and seems to be pretty impressive based on the reviews coming in. My plan is to get one in Triton Blue as soon as they are available in the US.

Good honest review, I recently purchased the 2021 GSX S750 and the cooling fans are also quite noticeable when stationary which isn't very often. 😁

Great review and bike!! Looks like Suzuki have nailed it!!!

That looked like so much fun, you're definitely the best bike reviewer I've ever watched. You've always been brilliant at expressing yourself 🙂

I’m a taller rider and I’ve been struggling to find a bike to fit me. I sat on the previous model of the GSX-S 1000 and the GSX-S 1000 F and found them to be very comfortable. I’m waiting for this bike in the GSX-S 1000 F trim as I want some wind protection. Frankly, I don’t understand why nakeds don’t have windscreens, since most people add them. I’m glad you didn’t discuss how it would perform on track since so few people do track days and even fewer buy these types of bikes for them. Why reviews cover track use and how bikes wheelie is beyond me. I was also interested in the Yamaha MT-10, but I think the Suzuki makes more sense for me, especially given how lousy the fuel economy is on the MT-10. Thanks for the great review.

I like it man. Awesome looking machine. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I think it looks mean. Still got all the go and I really like the colour. Great review as always spicy 👍🏻

Had s test ride on ond yesterday, absolutely stunning bike! Going to buy a 23 plate! Can’t wait! Thanks for your great review!👍🏻🤘🏻

Love the headlight. The dash on the other hand is really an eyesore. Still getting this bike soon.

Nice review, look forward to seeing what they do with the F version. Sounds very much like you are only really using 2-4 (or 5k) max revs. With the F I had years back, if I really opened it up I could get to very very silly speeds extremely quickly - more than most bikes I'd owned (I've had about 20 of varying power/capacities). Glad to see Suzuki have updated the bike though, as it's a wonderful ride, to me it is all about that engine ! Look forward to the next test :-)

I have the 2017 version great bike after a decat and map its making 160 at the wheel, that engine is amazing power everywhere. I like your style of review a realistic approach and not just one of them that gets taken in by badge and glamour of some bikes and then overlooks some of the good bikes out there 👍🏼 subscribed

I quite like the headlight, I see alot where it looks like it's been placed on scaffolding half a mile in front of the forks and that looks bulky to me but this is nice. I remember first finding your channel when you had the pulse adrenaline, how you have come so far it's amazing to see. Still enjoying the vids keep it up spicy 👍

Great review, I'm getting a 21 model next April/May I have prob watched every gsxs video on her several times but yours is one I keep going back too, Nice job

Awesome, love those bikes and after riding a friends one a few years back, I was hooked, they now sound even better. Just wish I was paid more so I could buy one. Although, love my Himalayan! You need to test one!

I have the 2016 version the same color matte gray! She’s a beast after all the tuning and mods! You can get another 25hp by full exhaust, pc5, air filter, air box mod, servo eliminator, ignition commander, and a custom tune to change up the rev limiter and tons of other stuff! I also did perreli Rosso Corsa 2’s to replace the factory Dunlop’s! They hook hard and come up to temp pretty quick! Never tried the wet but it does good on gravel roads I know that much!

Greaty review mate. I personally like the new look of this GSX. I'm 6'2, so with you being taller, that means I too should be comfortable with my back problems. Will probably trade my 06' Honda VFR800 for this bike if it fits me after I get to test it out. Always takes forever to get these new bikes into Australia, but my Suzi dealership (best I have ever dealt with by the way),has suggested that this will be priced in the 19-20K mark. Looking forward to the ride, and once again, brilliant real world test ride for all of us non-track riders. Stay safe.

Yet another great review Spicy. I wonder what a 750 with similar updates would be like

0-60 times are OK in vids but I definitely prefer this approach. You covered everything that I would want to know about this bike🙂

Great review & glad it's a proper road test & not another launch one tbh! I really like it & for the money it looks a veritable bargain!

Really helpful review. Thank you.

I love my early 1990's Suzuki GSX1100G bikes, but this looks tempting!

The headlight reminds me of a ktm duke headlight from the side and a grom from the front.

Excellent & honest review, thanks & Ride Safe. V

I totally agree with you, I am 6ft ft 4, I’ve just bought a 2024 model in black as a second bike . The deals to be had on these are fabulous.

I have a blue 2016 GSXS1000 naked and its a great bike. 4 years on and I sill love riding it. I don't like the look of new bike, especially the front. Someone needs to tell the Japanese a LED headlight doesn't have to be ugly to be effective. I like that they fixed the torque curve. The older bikes have a flat spot between 5-7k According to Suzuki's new dyno graphs they improved the midrange quite a bit. It would seem Spicy has confirmed this.

I daily the 2020 z900, I love it amazing low end for filtering and yet I still have plenty of power at 8k

Excellent video. Thank you.

Fantastic bike ,I rode one in the week and was really impressed 😊

I've not owned a bike now for 4 years due to going self employed and having to sell my Triumph Speed Triple to purchase a car for work. Had a 2007 GSX-R1000 about 10 years ago, absolute beast of a bike and comfy too for a sports bike. Only one thing wrong with this GSX-S1000, I WANT ONE !!!!!!

Look like the best horsepower to money ratio out there. So it's Suzuki back on form if you ask me. Hooliganism distilled. Also as someone who's 6'3" I'm glad to here it's comfortable from another tall bloke.

Great review of a great bike :-)

Great review!

Great review Spicy! I have been looking hard at the Mt09 but some things on that bike look unfinished, and the underbelly exhaust looks bloody awful! I think I am now sold on the Suzuki, every review is extremely glowing 👍

For me, ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE LOOKS.

that suzuki legacy design looks great with modern cuts

The 750 is a great bike but heavy. It'd quick but not crazy fast. It's also very smooth with nice suspension and fantastic brakes . Prices are also a steal

I will get this bike. Looks beautiful 😻

sounds like the tech & feel of the bike are much improved, hope they update the Katana model based off this bike as well

Looked into getting a hold over of the previous version but wasn't having much luck with the dealers and getting a good deal. Picking up a 2021 mt 09 in two days instead. It was between the two for my next bike, and they were the ones most comfortable (back issues). Wanted real world power without paying a fortune. The thousand was just a little too much money for me. Preferred the looks of the previous mt 09, but the new one is so much better in ways other than looks.

You can tell you're in Surrey - it's all Waitrose & Volvos! Compared to KTM's insect headlight or Ducati's fishbowl, there's nowt wrong with this bike's lights. Great review, really enjoyed it & subscribed. 👍

Stonkin bike I really like this I guess as you say the headlight for me is not as nice as the earlier model but that would not put me off this one will be top of my list in the next few months to try the scary thing is if I really fall in luv with it I could sign my life away ha : D Good job

Brilliant review as always but the road test would have to exceptional to make me live with that headlamp! Suzuki seem to be going down the same route as Yamaha with their MT09 and 07 I know it’s very modern looking but not for me ☹️

Spicy, in Jan 2018 I bought (new) my current bike (‘17 s1000r) after riding a ‘17 GSXS1000 and a ‘17 GSXS750. I went with the BMW because the GSXS1000 did not have the nice balanced turn in of the GSXS750 and the BMW, and it had a snatch throttle; the Suzukis had wooden feeling brakes (although similarity powerful to the BMW); and the BMW electronics suite was a lot better. Nice to hear the new GSXS1000 has the better turn in of the GSXS750, and I think the electronics suite is now on par with the 17 s1000r. The comparison of value v features is probably the same when comparing the current GSXS1000 with the current mid spec S1000R. Probably harder now to justify the higher cost of the BMW than it was in 2018. Throw Tuono, StreetFighter and Speed, and it is a good time to be looking to upgrade an already excellent bike 😎

Great Review sir, I'll take the quick shifter, the LED turn lights and the rear shock (if they upgraded it) for my 2018 model but the rest I'm not a fan. The plastics are a step backwards IMO and by going with a square look they took the "sexy" away from her.

Showing my age herer but every time I see that style of light it reminds me of K9 from the old DR Who

Good review

I don't care if the Katana is basically just this bike, I'm gonna get one. Why is that a thing people complain about? This bike is great!

@thepassionofthegoose5472

I too love the Katana. I'd get this one because of the larger fuel tank, but if the tanks were the same size I'd reconsider.

The best naked litre inline four there is. I really liked the last one but this is an improvement. Does the engine pull from low revs in top gear, spicy?

I love this bike but there are no Suzuki dealers within 200 miles of me... so I went with the CB1000r, ... I really want the gsx s1000f with the fering, I do like this naked look... kind of like the old 80's transformer lol

What a bike for £11k! Well done Suzuki👍

Traded my GSXR750 L5 against one of these two weeks ago and I absolutely love it!

The head light is going to be a bit marmite, from the front, and I'm not sure about the camo/speckled plastic, until you did a close up I just though it was dirty.

The side view kinda made it look like a SuperDuke ,??😏, and that engine is simply Bullet Proof, like most Suzuki Engines. 👍🇺🇸🇯🇵

Like the bike, but that headlight setup takes some getting used to.. also, are those daft wings removable? It would look so much better without them!

Appearance wise, it’s missing the belly cowl of the 2020. But the awesome part you can add it to complete the look.

Wow look at that sticker quality! 🤣🤣

Cheers, really looking forward to seeing what Suzuki do with the F variant :-) This S is probably the best bang-per-buck 1000 naked. And Haselmere are without doubt the best Suzuki dealer in the UK.

good review - what make are your gloves please? does it feel the same as its katana brother please?

The only thing questionable about this bike to me is the width of the handlebars for splitting lanes in tighter traffic which is easily doable on supersports...have a feeling they'll get in the way or limit the abity

Hi, don’t know if you can answer this but which bike to choose: cb1000r, GSX S1000 or MT10? And why? I have gsx s750. Nice bike but want a bit more torque. Usable for the street.

New Gsxs1000,mt10,zh2 or cb1000. Which you prefer bro?

You got a DJ voice man!

I have the 750 19 plate nothing but problems throttle body keeps sticking thus needing cleaned constantly on a 19 plate bike. Which leads me to the question should I lube my throttle slider.

Nice review man, I like your camera placement. May I know what's the model of camera mounted on the bike?

Sorry mate, found it in your description Thanks

I really liked the old model. Very comfortable even for a shorter rider. When Chase was ranging about it in the live stream. He totally missed the point of this bike. It's not a super naked, it's a street bike, even Suzuki market it as one.

Mate, some time ago you compared the vstrom 1000 with the 650. Would you consider comparing the Z1000R with the Z900? No one seems to have done that. The Z1000 seems to have been forgotten which is s shame. I've seen 2020 models for £10400 in dealerships, which is cheap given the class it's in. I fear that it may be dropped from the line up, despite the internet suggesting it may be getting an update. Or compare the gsx s1000 to the z1000?

Wtf. A gixxes with winglets!

I feel like that could just be because its a new fan it may wear itself in or at least id hope so. Hoping to buy one when they arrive in germany just kinda stuck between wanting the black or grey( normally I love all black)

How would you compare it to the MT10?

Are they quickshift up and down or just up?

Is it better than the 2020 kawasaki sx 1000 ???
