This is a really enjoyable and professionally done review. I always appreciate your on-bike commentary about handling, ergonomics, engine response and sound, and so on, and I found myself nodding in agreement as you ticked off each point. Your camera angle and sound pickup were just right, so that it felt like we viewers were truly along for the ride, such that I could hear the engine sounds on roll on roll off just as you described them. It’s a nice sounding bike, and I am impressed with the quick shifter being so smooth in a 1-2 shift. Thanks for the fun and informative review!

I loved the test ride I had on this bike. To make it perfect though, it would need the cruise-control and TFT display from the GT and heated grips.

Absolutely brilliant video Kate. I can't think of one question to ask about this bike, you answered them all. You're bloody superb at everything you do.🙂

Smashing Video, well presented, informative and concise. Looking forward to the next.

Always like your reviews Kate. They're 'Real World' and always down to earth.

Another good review Kate, keep up the good work. All the best from Argyll.

Great review Kate, it's definitely a great bike and amazing value too.

Great real life review as always Kate bars n clutch lever had me curious but hearing gettinf flat footed on a 1000cc bike impressive, just liked the im on the telly mum comment. Keep it up yer doing amaze keeping us entertained aw the best

Great, detailed review Kate……….definitely gonna test ride this bike!

Great review! As a rider on the shorter side like you, I appreciate the perspective. Keep it up!

Thank you for the videos. I'm in the process of deciding on electric transport. Life is getting interesting and I haven't even started riding one. It's one HUGE revolution electrical wise.

Hi Kate, a nice review and I always enjoy your commentary, and your point about the clutch lever, will be noted by Suzuki, I'm, sure! A very enjoyable ride too.

Great review. Thanks for posting. Really like the new design and colors.

Nice review. I really like this bike. I also reckon it's a bit of a dark horse & perfect for the road. Speaking of dark horses, black's my favourite too. Looks a brute.

Great review Kate. 👍

Thanks for a great review. The engine seems addictive! I understand B level is the daily setting just because it's so eager. Looking forward to the sport touring version. All the good stuff is already there. Windscreen, a real two-up seat (not the typical stupid-high, small, highly angled perch!). Suzuki can really get it right!

Probably the bike at the top of the list for next bike. Even though I currently ride a BMW, this is nearly 10 grant cheaper than the S1000r in Australia. Plus the blue is my current favorite colour in the industry.

Once again thank you for your information and assessment on this GSX-S1000 2021 model the technology has been grown - far out light weight and easy to drive compare to Z1000R 2021 model quite heavy , well good day drive safely more power to you 🤗

You are such a Smart and Beautiful person to watch. Japanese Bikes, especially Suzuki are Fun and Easy to Ride, you are definitely right.

More Electronics Added to Incorporate with the great Engine for just 11K Pounds.👌

15:47 Something similar happened to me on my dainty GSX-R125 the other day except I suddenly found myself lying under the bike in a rather embarrassing and compromising position. Had just taken it out of the garage and locked up behind me, plopped my arse down on the seat and then suddenly the bike is lying on top of me and I'm lying there thinking WTF how did that just happen. I'm still so confused... and embarrassed. Thankfully nobody came out to help me or ask if I was alright. Hopefully none of the neighbours noticed or care! Either is fine by me. Edit - Maybe it's a Suzuki thing! Good review as well.

Having ridden many 1000cc bikes with a fairing, I could never switch back to naked bike, OK for a Sunday blast with your mates, But for any serious touring, Any additional protection for wind and rain is a massive bonus believe me,Not a bad review overall, Your opening statement about the bike feels Japanese?

Minor design pet peeve of mine, why can’t bike manufacturers integrate the display units into the design more seamlessly? It’s as though we’re living through the early stages of car design all over again when displays were first being implemented. To be fair, many cars still haven’t gotten past that awkward growing phase. Love the look of this Suzuki but I can’t help but stare at that faux Flintstones rock mounted on the front.

no no no, this review is wrong !! where's the pretentios criticism, the smug bored appreciation of it's few, hard to remember, qualities, the constant reminder that this is an old bike with a restyle, that is a suzuki (followed by a knowledgeable smirk, wink like expression). I mean, the "professionals" surely know better.... right ? Sarcams aside, you seem to have had a good time on a great bike and you shared that very well, thank you :)

Because they value the dollars saved over the performance and cruise of the MT. Styling also a likely choice, despite how many view this as looking like a Yamaha (I don't).

For some reason you look taller than you are. If I ever decide to replace my old Bandit this might be interesting.

This bike has one massive drawback you didn't mention, and it's probably the reason why I will not be buying the Suzuki GSX-S1000. Every time you go over 60, the screen just blurs itself out! What were Suzuki thinking? 1/5, would not recommend.
