Just bought the 2023 bike, number one reason was the price, what a bargain! No brainer in my eyes. Then I also love the look of it, like a smooth inline 4, plenty of power and up and down quickshifter! I don't need or want all the fancy electronics so would be a waste of money for me buying one of the more expensive options 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I've just bought one. 'A' mode is loads of fun, plus its really comfy and that standard exhaust gives a nice crackle. But the price makes it outstanding.

Nice review! I have a 2012 GSR750 and absolutely love it. It screams when you want it to and is just so smooth when you're riding chill.

First time viewer, and enjoyed the review. I am in a similar position to you (upgrading a 17 S1000R, so similar pool I am looking at) so appreciate your perspective.

Great review there. I’m thinking of getting one of these. And I noticed you borrowed it from my local Suzuki dealer in Letchworth. I’ve bought 2 V-Stroms from A&M over the past few years. Brilliant service.

Great review this is the working man’s all around street budget buster sign me up.

Nice review. I like that you said straight from the off the supernaked are great but too much for you at this point. They are for most people whether they admit it or not! I think this is a great road bike & genuinely one of the best value bikes out there at the moment. You could also stick with almost anything on the road with it too as it's not slow by any means.

I reckon this bike is the one I'd get in this class, as certainly it isn't a tech laden as the more expensive competitors, but it does have decent suspension, an up/down quickshifter, decent brakes and good throttle response, as compared to the previous iteration. For the price...well..it's a snip really.

That’s basically a new version of my 2020 Katana. I got mine last August for $9,000 USD as a demo bike with 825 miles and the first service done, still with full warranty. Too good of a deal, got the black one. The Katana/GSX-S1000 is very overlooked, they’re rock-solid and very well-balanced bikes. Footless stops are effortless and so is puttering around town, but on any country roads it’s an excellent fast roadster. The bike is also faster than 600cc sport bikes, having a 0-100mph time of 6 seconds flat and a 100-200kmph of 5 seconds flat, and running the 1/4 mile in 10.7 to 10.9.

Thanks for review,is this Suzuki better for Street triple rs ?

Honestly some of the best content out there! Would be good to do a meet next bike season. Where are you based?

Great vid mate! You can never fault suzuki for providing smooth, great handling, reliable bikes. I'm sure that thing would be mint with a full system, air filter and dyno tune. Was it 150hp claimed at the crank?

Best video yet 👍

Love this bike, colour & looks are great for my taste its a sexy little thing even for a 'generic suzuki' This is a good next bike consideration for sure, shouldn't be overlooked...

Now that you’re back in market, I would suggest jumping back on the MT 09 SP again! It’s electronics package is inedible, engine is amazing and all for an incredibly affordable price! 👍🏻

i like that you're very honest about it :)

Well done mate , exactly how it says on the tin Proper honest review

I don't believe it would get destroyed by the super nakeds as you say. A fast competent rider on this would stand a chance with most if not all in its class. V4 streetfighter aside and maybe the Aprilia I think this is a great bike. The Honda cb1000r won't handle like the suzuki because of the front rake. It sort of reminds me of the FZ8 I used to have. Everyone jumped on the MT range but when all said and done the FZ8 was actually the better bike. The 800cc was an absolute beast and due to the ergos it was better handling than the 07 and 09. I'd take one of these all day or the monster 1100 evo, last of the air cooled

I also bought one, great bike, good for touring and twisty roads

what do you prefer? this gsxs 1000 or a 2023 street triple rs, they have the same price. I'm hesitating between the two.

Just waiting for mine to be delivered :D

Nice review ser..👍

Faster and more sporty bike then Mt09🤙🔥

At the point I decided to sell the Triumph street triple 765rs due to wanting a little more bhp but more importantly at 6ft a big framed bike I chose the Mt10 which I love but the Suzuki looks a great alternative and very well priced too. Cheers.

Did you end up getting it ? I am on the Fence too, had a GSX-S 750 2018 and loved that Bike to pieces so much that I sold my Z900 2020 to eventually get another GSXS. I want a fun, reliable bike that I can modify to my pleasing and that doesn't cost 2 Kidneys and a Leg to get. The S1000R, CB1000R and the MT10 are all way too expensive for similar Specs. Heck I can tune that GSXS for cheaper than those Bikes cost.

Test riding one tomorrow. Recently took out the MT10 and it's scary fast, like too fast for the road you have to use the lesser power modes plus it's almost double the price Got a Tracer900GT atm

Send the ECM to Moore Mafia to flash. Taking the restrictions off and balancing the air/fuel ratio is a game changer.

You having a dabble on a s1000r mate ? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts Vs the 765

Got a mt09 sp coming Friday I know you mentioned you wanted something with more power so you tried this but the mt will beat this 0-100/120 by a second or so

Love the video big thumbs up man but im stuck between this and a street triple rs 🤔 how do you compare them being in similar price bracket?

It does have wheelie control.. sort of..the TCS is also wheelie control. You said it’s not made for the track, but i believe it would still be very capable.

I'm just curious as to how this isn't a super-naked? It's almost impossible to exploit anything above 120hp in the UK and this exceeds that by some way! I feel like just because it doesn't have the HP figure that the Tuono/Duke/SF-V4/SpeedTriple; it is still, easily, enough to keep up with those bikes on the roads.

Would be nice to see how this performs against the 2021 MT10.

Do you notice obvious vibration if over 5000rpm

Got a test ride on one few months ago. It's got the anti stall on it and I stalled it twice taking it out the shop.

Hmm, sounds like a great real world bike but having watched most of your vids, I think it lacks some of the quality components that you like. As an example, the front master cylinder with integrated reservoir which looks budget. 11k sounds a bit salty to me when the MT09 SP is 10.2k OTR? Great review as usual.

Cool bike, but I really think they should have a imu and cruse for some more electronics goodness. Not a bad price point though I guess but it's mt09 and ktm 890 money, yes there down on power but get more electronics for the same cash and lighter 🤔

Just like you I have a 2020 street triple RS and there is no way I’d trade it for that…just doesn’t have the wow factor or quality

Go have a a ride on the z1000 or mt10 first although Yamaha haven’t yet released the new mt..but quick look on autotrader has 3 with 0 mileage.you know damn well you be bowled over by the sound of that with sc project on it 🤤😜

Did you find the dash a bit dark? Looks so in videos. Did you try to increase the brightness?

No aftermarket windscreen!? Hmmm….

Man this machine looks awesome. I had s750 & was quite satisfactory. But obviously this one's better!

Thanks Bikes of Rye, nice review. I am in the market presently. Test rides has been a challenge with global supply delays, weather and now a long lockdown. Where I live the GSX S1000 is stg 500 more than an MT09SP. Love to see a comparison vid. The MT09 is supposed to be torquey and quick but you mentioned below that you want more power. I am trading up from a CBR500R and am really not sure how much power is enough or too much. I ride around a city (Auckland NZ) and in the country; a mix of motorway, B roads with corners and real twisties, along the coast and over mountains. I ted to short shift and use torque around town and wind the little CB out over the hills. What are your thoughts? The Z900 is another alternative. The CB1000R look good and I am sure is excellent but is very expensive here down under. Some say better to have a smaller bike that you can thrash. Thoghts?

Look at him now riding a bmw s1000r

is it good for ?

2021 MT09SP is only £9895 OTR at UK dealers, don't pay a penny more. Worth another look?

I like it

I had a 2019 model Don't be fooled by the power im no rossi and I could easily keep with more powerful bikes on the street brakes ok changing direction quickly takes effort handling ok try the s1000r its slightly bettering in everyway and doing good deals at minute

How would you compare it to the Mt10?

I would never trade in your striple for this bike. That tank looks awful for one. I wouldn't see this as an upgrade though. Even with a full exhaust that bike doesn't come close to the triple sound. When again, it's just my opinion. Knowing Suzuki it probably rides great.

S1000 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

SuuuuuuuuZuuuuuuuuKiiiiiiiiiiii. What a bike

Great channel. Just subscribed. Suzuki did a great job with this bike. Drop by.

When did £11,000 become a cheap budget bike? I'm out of touch with new bike prices!

Afraid that Suzuki has no soul. It is a capable machine and if that’s all you want then fine, but it’s not a bike to get excited about riding. Think you would regret buying that after the 765. Now that bike has soul, not perfect by any means but that is what gives it real character and ultimately fun to ride😁

its all down to rider ability at the end of the day whether its a 150 bhp GSXS1000 or a Superduke R with 173 bhp there all more capable than 99% of road riders this bhp nonsense on the road doesnt make a shite of difference

It looks similar to the Super Duke.

suzuki always sucked at marketing,and their bikes aint the prettiest,but they are the best value out there and their bikes are almost as reliable as a honda but usually with more hp,cant go wrong,I mean I like triumph bikes and wish I had one but I would not invest in one

جميل جداً شكراً لك

That’s not an upgrade from the triumph mate

720p +60fps would better viewing

5.15 hehehehe 😆 sneaky little chuckle. Ok it’s £11000 but definitely not for me mate its cheap and it looks it imo. With a 16 year old engine I’d hope if i was spending 11 bags id have a little more tech. Me id buy something a couple years old with low miles and some gadgetry soz dude this is definitely a NO NO for me 👎🏻.

Leave it to Suzuki to make something so ugly. But hey, it's faster than my Ninja 1000....

Doesnt feel like a 218KG bike... more like 170KG

Good luck in whatever you bought just wish it had been the 1200rs 😒 you will miss the triple howl unless you have bought a V4🤔🤣🤣🤣

It looks ugly however it’s the beak value for money bike on the market !

These bikes seem cheap IDK if id be completely satisfied I'm the type that either rather pay extra

Full specs on this bike found here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdyIp5R-26i8gaM.html

not a very good translation...

Sub ✅

Wait how are you 214kg lmao

3-4 minute listening your video you didnt talked anything about bike...such a waste todays videos and channels. Rather make video 4-5 minutes video straight to the point. Otherwise I'm gone like most of the viewers. Dislike.
