Really informative and fun review! I rode the 8R a couple of days ago and it was a lot of fun. Personally I think its the best all rounder in the class.

Glad you found the content enjoyable. The 800cc platform from Suzuki is awesome in each machine they produce with it. The 8R is a very attractive option for this class of motorcycle, and like you said, a wicked good all-rounder. Thanks for watching. Ride safe. 😎

Sweet video Omni man keep up the good work! I really like the up and down quick shifter on this bike. That feature should come on EVERY bike made. Also just a fun fact, the Honda Goldwing has the idle up feature when releasing the clutch from a stop. What a sweet feature that is!

Nice job delivering a ton of information very well. Great review

I have the blue 8r and overall i love the bike. Im a sucker for torque and this bike delivers with way more than i expected. In my opinion it's a great all around bike

Hey man 👋 This is the first video I watch from your channel and I really loved it ! Keep them coming 😄 I ordered a black 8R as my first bike and I got to keep it at 48hp for 2 years 😢 can't wait to get my hands on it though. Greeting from France ✌️

Hey, thank you for the kind words, my friend! I'm glad the first video you viewed left a good impression. In 2 years when you can derestrict your 8R, you'll nearly double your HP output! Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎

I test rode this bike and was gonna purchase it. Then i stumbled upon the GSX-S1000GT and fell in love with it.

I’m also a first time rider and was considering this as a first bike but I’m torn between this and a Mt07 that’s on for a killer price. I’ve heard this bikes speedometer is off by 5-6miles from the actual speed it’s going. Also have heard about vibrations in the handle bars. How has yours been?

Cool stuff Omni Dude! Suzuki always make great bikes! I’m a bit old for the 8R and it does look great! I just wish the rims were painted black with either the blue or yellow colours. They are on the black version. I’m stoked you got to test ride this version! So similar to the fabulous 8S. Just waiting on the 450MT now to play on dirt a bit! Enjoy summer & work on getting a bit of tan on your face😉😂😂 Cheers! P.S. maybe I’ll surprise you at work one day!😎

Thanks for popping in Steve! The new 776cc P-Twin from Suzuki is excellent thus far. No complaints from me on this machine - It really deserves much more attention when considering the rest of the competition. Hoping you get your 450MT soon! You're always welcome to stop in and visit in my neck of the woods stateside. 😎

Good review!

Just got my first service done a couple of days ago, and did the snorkel delete last night in about 15 minutes. Loving this bike, although on/off throttle jerkiness is a little annoying in stop and go traffic. Its currently my daily

I found the throttle was overall very smooth in modes B/C while mode A did provide that responsiveness I was looking for. Compared to a lot of other ride-by-wire systems, I felt it was adequate, but we all experience these machines different. Thank you for sharing your experience and tuning into the video! Ride safe.

Nice review & bike. It's a great all round package & defies it's spec sheet when you ride it. Only thing I don't really like is the look of the handlebars but they are comfortable so not a deal breaker.

noticed that your not wearing you new EOX helmet in your vids since your reveal. Your back wearing the 4.0, Don't rate it or??

@Omni_Moto

Ай бұрын

I have really enjoyed it so far but I also see areas for improvement. The EOX has several advantages/features that I like more than my Atlas 4.0, but my Atlas 4.0 has admirable traits as well that I do miss at times. In short, I need more time in the saddle with the EOX to rate and review it accurately.

First time on 2-wheels ever and a true beginner? Probably not. Advanced beginner with some practice on 2-wheels? Sure! You can do it, but everyone learns at a different pace. Know your own limits and don't get in a hurry. Thanks for watching and ride safe!

Is the engine good enough to keep a seasoned rider happy for a long time and not wish they went with something bigger.

@Omni_Moto

11 күн бұрын

A seasoned rider will enjoy this motorcycle. I think you’d be very happy with the 8R and its awesome capability, but keep in mind it is not a horsepower biased machine. It has excellent low & mid-range torque, but the engine pull beyond 110MPH does not deliver the same thrill as a smaller 600CC inline 4 cylinder. If you are chasing thrills and speed, I'd recommend the 600 or stepping up to the GSX-R750. Thank you for watching and ride safe!

@@Omni_Moto that’s why I was really considering this bike. I had an R6 and it was a top end screamer which made it a terrible commuter bike which I did 16k miles before getting rid of it. I’m not sure if I can justify the sport bike look when a z900 or mt-09 is around the same price. It the engine and plastics worth it😁

@Omni_Moto

11 күн бұрын

@@pc9429 If the MT-09 is on your radar at all, it gets my vote over the 8R. The 09 is wicked capable and loaded with more tech than the 8R. Lighter and more powerful too with the addition of cruise control in the mix. Z900 is overweight and down on tech when compared to the 09. 8R is a friendly commuter with some good sport capability, but the new gen (2024) MT-09 is just that good. Like I mentioned in the video, it deserves bike of the year IMHO and it’s not particularly close. Hope this helps!

Bags are available for purchase for the bike.

@@Omni_Moto How about you try purchasing the helmet yourself before entering the comment section to defend your sponsored gear? In fact, ECE 22.06 is the minimum standard for selling in Europe. You literally can't sell in the US without DOT. So, your point is that your sponsored helmet meets the minimum threshold for being sold legally? If you tried formulating sensical points instead of signing for sponsored gear, you would've shut me up by now.

@@DubMeDibbs You understand that the KZreadr who posted this video is sponsored by Ruroc? Google Ruroc helmet reviews. Most reviewers will have received their helmets directly from the company. To sponsor a significant number of websites and cheap KZread channels like this one, how significant of an investment do you think that is? Now compare it to how much you think they spend on R&D and safety? Isn't ECE 22.06 the minimum standard to be sold?
