I’d imagine that the Japanese bikes aren’t lacking as such as they are excellent in their own right, it’s just when you compare them to their European counterparts that have poured a different kind of passion, philosophy (and money) in the last ten years or so you get this ever expanding difference. It’s the same with the cars.

Not just the GX and Hayabusa has an IMU... My 2018 V-Strom 1000 had one. "Why would one buy a GT"?! Because some would say the GT looks a lot nicer.... some people don't really care much about electronic suspension... just one more electronic component to fail on a ride. I set up my adjustable suspension once and done. I'm good for twists and long rides. The GT comes with side cases and is about 15 pounds lighter than the GX but, the biggest thing is, I find the look of the GT a lot better. Sleek! Great vid by the way!

@inked-96

Ай бұрын

Can you educate me... Is the IMU really needed? I was looking at buying a used 1000GT. They're around 5k cheaper than a new GX.. i know an IMU offers more safety, but is it really worth it over used GT? Will it always save you in the rain mid corner? All I've read on comments comparing the GT to the Ninja is IMU this, IMU that...

@twotone3426

Ай бұрын

​@@inked-96 Don't get me wrong, an IMU is definitely a great safety measure / tool to have BUT, we should never rely on these electronics to save our bacon and/or more importantly, replace riding skills, bike suspension set-up and a great set of tires.... people need to stop being cheap with rubber! I put Michelin Road 6's on my bike and it made a world of a difference with traction. I also went from the stock rear size of 190/50/17 to 190/55/17 to help lean better in the twisties. People need to learn how to properly approach corners to dampen the front suspension to get ultimate grip, learn to trail break, LOOK at where you want to go and then when to accelerate out of the corner and you should be all good. Stay away from the inside corners because it's where the gravel and sand is because of stupid drivers but mostly large trucks hitting the shoulders. So in short, there's no cons of having an IMU and there is a benefit for sure but do I think it's all that necessary? No.

I turn 58 next month and this bike excites me like the RM250Z release did in 1982. I WANT IT

Nice Machine ! Would love to have it.

Nice review. Looking forward to part 2. Seems decent & typical Suzuki. A few compromises & corners cut but mechanically bulletproof & they give you what you need if not always what you want. Speaking of which why not just put some decent tyres on it as standard as the cost is minimal & would make a huge difference. As for the GX v GT, I guess the difference is the GT is analog, cheaper & sportier than the GX. Personally if I wanted a sports tourer, I''d go for the GT for those reasons.

First decent review at this bike launch but I can see why TMF doesn't bother going. I look forward to the real world road tests. Suzuki have made the best gearboxes since the GS750 of the '70's.😊

Sad that I couldn't see any of you all on the road, even if just for a good old biker greeting. It is nice to see other people from abroad enjoy, what essentially are, my local roads.

Nice vid but a few things; I get a bit fed up with constantly wanting more Bhp or ‘aggressive engine characteristics’; not everyone wants that. If the pegs were lower then someone shorter would just complain they’re too low, so you’ll never win. The last time I bought a GS it never came with vario panniers but I’ve never seen anyone complain about that. It just kind of feels like extreme nitpicking; it’ll be super reliable, I like the looks and it’s cheap for what it is. Nice vid Chopsy but just a few things that get to me after a while.

Hi At 25:14 When you are discussing the A riding mode, why was the suspension manually set up for "pillion" or "passenger"?

Seems like a perfectly good bike with a lot of good tech but its just missing a little bit of refinement and the wow factor. Having owned a few Suzukis they really know how to make a lovely motor. Like you I love a bit more excitement and I don’t mind a few vibes and bit of a lively throttle when it translates into smiles per hour.

Nice to see Neevsey and Mosey. Studs.

Chopsie - watched your review as well as Neevsey’s on MCN. Suspension sounds trick, and getting feel on electronic suspension is a challenge (I bought a non-electronic 17 S1000R as the electronic version was very numb when you are “full sized” chap with body mass in the three digits). Wish Suzuki would provide brakes with feel, as BMW, Ducati, Aprilia and KTM seem to be able to do. Suzuki also tends to put “ok” rubber as OEM - a set of Rosso IV would make a world of difference. To fix those issues you close the gap to an XR

Even if it doesn't quite hit the superbike level... it looks like what I'd describe as a REAL sport tourer (most bikes people think of as ST's are way too fat IMO...
