With the looks, performance and bulletproof reliability of one of the most renown motorcycling brands in the world, why aren't more people talking about the Suzuki GSX-8S? It's their first brand new bike in some time, but its reception in Malaysia has been rather lukewarm.

UPDATE: I’ve been informed by a Suzuki Malaysia rep that the 8S does indeed have an autoblip function when using the quick shifter on downshifts. And that “shifting with QS needs to be sure-footed and firm.“

I Agree! A belly pan and a tail tidy is all it takes... then you got a super-handsome bike

Tested the autoblip and it works

With a little over 900mi. on my 8S so far my experience pretty much matches your 1 hour test ride. Fortunately the QS does get smoother with more miles. Also similar to you I surprisingly found the different color options (23 & 24 colors) equally attractive but ended up with the white 23 version.

You ride the bike not the specs. Compared to Duke 790, GSX-8s has low vibration even though both has twin balancer. Yes, Duke 790 has 100ish horseperse and GSX-8s has 83hp but nobody will cruise above 180km/h constantly on naked bike. So far, the only complain I had with this bike is aftermarket accessories is non-existent in Malaysia, had to import everything outside.

If I get the chance, sure. But old bikes are tricky, can’t just turn up at a showroom to take a test ride.

Why would you think that nobody cares? Did you talk to every single biker in the world?

It's an extremely boring bike. I really don't understand why they released the bike and how they're positioning this in the market. The 4 cylinders GSX-S750 is much more fun. Another competition is the CBR650R, which is again 4 cylinders. Both are cheaper than this crap. It doesn't even compete with other twin cylinders like MT-07 and Duke 790 which are much more fun. This bike has nothing going for it. There's no point to it.

Such a crap take. This bike actually has low and midrange torque unlike either of the other 4 you mentioned. No reviewer likes any of those bikes more than the 8s. Your comment is clearly bait and it got me.

@@ptiscool3334 The fuck are you on about? The CBR-650R, MT-07 and Duke 790 are very popular and highly rated bikes. The GSX-S750 is easily Suzuki's most sold mid range bike. The fact that the GSX-8S hasn't sold much and you don't see it much on the road tells a lot

Haha I took it for a test ride and bought one. I think it’s great fun. Your test ride may have been in a boring environment to have such a strong opinion.
