How do you properly test out two motorcycles? On the track, of course! Let's see how the "new" 2006 Suzuki GSX-R 1000 holds up against the Ducati 1198S.

I can't stop staring at the garage over all the other content - so organized with many vehicles and tools in there. Informative as always.

Peter your riding has improved so much. Glad you are getting to enjoy the bikes as intended. I still love the sound of the big Ducati motor ❤

Thank you! It's fun getting them out and using them. I'm so over collecting and just watching stuff sit.

The only WSBK title that Suzuki has won was with the K5, K6 model. I think that title speaks volumes as to how good the K5.K6 platform really is. Nice comparison video. Thank you.

Mladin was pretty good in AMA Superbike during that era.

@P.DuncanMonk 5 ай бұрын

@@eddiebones20 Mladin was a fierce competitor. I think he single-handedly raised the bar in AMA racing. I met Mat Mladin at Laguna seca in 2006 and he was a super cool guy, but he sure disliked Ben Spies and Bens mother. Kind of strange my favorite ama racer was an Aussie.

I have a K6 that is nice but not nice as yours. How do you like the forks? Are they from a newer model (smaller diameter)? Also from the tack, you’re not running in the crazy zone yet (over 10K). That’s were the magic happens. Lol

Do you Have the lap times from each bikes!? Were you using the traction control !? Awesome vídeo!!

@PracticalEnthusiast Жыл бұрын

I don't have lap times unfortunately ☹️ I need to look into a data logger solution that works for both bikes. The traction control kicked in a few times on the Duc but I don't think it did on the Suzuki. I wasn't too aggressive with the throttle this time around.

Fellow 1198s rider here. A couple of things that I noticed. I don't know if its the light/camera, but I never see the shift lights come on. Are they broken or are you short shifting a little? Hard to tell from the sound. There's very little sound change from no lights to full shift lights. Also, might be time to swap out the brake and clutch fluids, they're getting a little dark lol

Wow,you have two superb bikes. The 1198s is in my opinion one of the best analogue v twins ever made,and yours is a peach, im jealous. Keep it forever you'll regret not having it and what can i say about the K6 arguably the pinnacle of gsxr thous!. But thats not all its one of the most tastefully moded bukes ive seen, just beautiful,!. Even more jealous, you'll never find another like that one. Your a lucky guy and btw i think you should be in the advanced group on track, your way to quick for the intermediate group. Keep up the great vlogs.
