won't be for long. Bikes are going the same direction as cars. abs, traction control, shift for you, rev match for you... hell won't be long til they're self driving too and there's no point in riding at all. I wish nothing but bad things for the numbskull at Honda whose idea it was to put DCT on a motorbike.

[@peterfalconer-h3k]

@@TachOnRed Got all that stuff on my R1250R Beemer, I can switch it all off but in reality I don't even think about and aside from being fairly heavy, it's just a great bike to ride. Living in outback Australia, the possibility of a kangaroo hopping out in front of me is very real and knowing something like ABS might save my arse is very reassuring. Btw, l have hit a kangaroo on a bike and trust me, it didn't end well.

That engine will feel new for a long time. It's amazing.

I bought GSX-R 750 2007 month ago, made few tweaks - new exhaust, clipons, water pump rebuild. 3 trackdays done. Great bike for the price, big fan 😁

[@ehtikhet]

It’s heartwarming to see someone with so much experience and who has access to so many amazing bikes really glowing over how much they love their bike.

You two seem to be on the same wavelength. Never seen Michael so relaxed both in body language and fluidity of speech. Yes he is talking about his own bike but this is by far the best review I have seen from Michael and your colleague. Two boys in a sweet shop to coin an expression.

[@MalShakur]

Having owned the 600, 750, and 1000, I will fully admit that the 750 is still the sweet spot. Mine was an 01 model, but the lady has an 07 down in the garage now. Hard to explain, but the 750 is fun in a way that the 1000 is not. Perhaps because you can still wring its neck!

[@LeakyWadersAdventureClub]

Neeves has lived the life many of us wish for. He's a legend. Grew up reading and watching him. Love his channel too

[@marcusgeorge1825]

Love it! As an ex Australian Superbike racer during the 90’s, on a Suzuki just reminds me about when WSB was arguably at its best. As an example, my home racetrack is Phillip Island and the trackside attendances record is still from 95 and 96. It’s hard to find these today in this condition.

[@HelloJamesBond]

Philip Island, THE best track in the world 🇬🇧 🇦🇺

[@stevehayward7947]

Yes this is the point I was getting at . The WSB back in the 90s was something to behold. Wish they'd never gone to 1000cc

[@marcusgeorge1825]

@@stevehayward7947 The only positive thing is at least the idea of WSB hasn’t changed that much. I do however miss the top 4 Japanese 750 cc bikes and the original 916 Ducati that kept things interesting and entertaining. I was about 200 metres behind Foggy when he had his crash exiting turn 2. A spot I’m still yet to have seen another bike depart that part of the track again.

[@The_Norty_Rider]

Riding down this year?

[@joeblow5037]

I'm a bit older.....but I bought a brand new '79 CBX out of the crate in the winter of '84. Immediately put on a six into one equal length pipe, rejetted it, S&W Street Strokers, ATK fork brace, and a silver Tracy sport fairing to match the paint. Owned it for 10 glorious years, until I quit my job and went into business for myself and had to sell it. 😪 I should have robbed a bank. the sound was magificent. nice scoot, Michael :-)

[@canerverdi9955]

best episode ever, neevsy is guest, thanx mcn. I have to say, i was expecting Neevsy ownes a Tuono V4 in his career since he loved aprilias so much. well, hats off for gixxer 750.

[@timdavie158]

Great clip guys, always love them. I just picked up a 2011 L1 GSXR750 off a family member. I wasn't keen on a 750 but it was to cheep to say no. My last bike was a 2010 Hayabusa and before that a SV650 and have ridden lots of bikes from Hayabusa's to Harley's. I have been pleasantly surprised by how good and fast the GSXR 750 really is. I flipped the clip on's from left to right and put them upside down which gave me about a 2 inch rise for free which has made it even better for me. I'm also surprised how much room it has, I'm 6 foot 7 tall and 115kg and it still feels great for a sport bike. (I know I shouldn't be riding sport bikes at my size but they are just to much fun)🤪 I also changed the front sprocket down one to a 16tooth and the back up 2 to a 47tooth. It has made it accelerate more like a 1000. Just such a rideable bike. Was going to ride it for a year then get a GSXS1000 but after a couple of months and the mods I've done to it I'm going keep it now, Such a good reliable bike😊👍

What is said in this video is exactly what me and any of mates say, new crop of bikes a no…. 90’s and up to 2010 is where it’s at. Don’t need a computer to tell you how to ride and enjoy the open road…… The gixer 750 is the best sports road bike of all time and always will be 👌☝️👍🏼

Wow i cant believe ive just stumbled on this video ,im near 50 and as a kid i was fortunate enough to buy a 1989 GSXR750r with less than 5000 kilometres i loved this bike and sold it to fund my wedding mid 90s ,two weeks ago i found a fully restored GSXR750r and couldnt wait to rekindle a beautiful relationship ,unfortunately over the last 20 years ive been spoilt with newer models and the difference between the 89 and current bikes is amazing ,i rode the 89 for 2 hours and now its parked in my garage never ever to see the streets again

[@stevehayward7947]

Thank you so much for the honest opinion of the Gsxr750. I've been a fan since my first the Gsxr750 L model 1990. I've had many iterations over the years but always felt the 750 was enough. Just bought my last keeper An L8 and I've fallen back in love. I wish the super bikes never went to th 1000 class and they had kept the series at 750..

Michael is simply the best

Lovin' the passion... Looking forward to more 'fettling/sorting the brakes' videos, and the epic '2025 Euro-Hoon'

[@simonwallis9520]

I absolutely love the 750 😍 Ive had a mint K5, a ropey K6 a few years ago that despite being filthy, grimey, rusty chain and a flat front tyre from a seller with a dog that wanted to eat me, I just had to buy it. I stripped it down and got it in beautiful condition. Ive now got a Street Triple RS (2023) which is absolutely bloody amazing but i just can't get a nice late model GSX-R750 off my mind!! Im scanning the classifieds all the time but the RS is so good. Neevseys bike hasn't helped 😅

[@CrashDark]

This Gixxer is peak sports-bike. I have the 2014 Yoshi edition. It's pretty perfect.

[@drumtum]

I bought a Piaggio Ciao just 5 days ago, made a few tweaks - new exhaust, airfilter. 2 trackdays done. Great great bike for the price.

[@jeromeadams5692]

My first bike was a 93 ex500 at 19. Then a coworker wrecked it and didnt get another bike until a few months ago at 49 (22 gsxs-750). Dream bike has aways been gsxR750, but thought gixxus would be more practical fit at this point. Already thinking about my next bike (gixxer, monster, streetfigher, RR, etc)

[@itismegarry]

[@fedgshhsgdjk]

Black widow make a header and mid pipe kit to suit slip on mufflers, good cheap option. Also stock Suzuki pads are Brembo’s and they work great, I have no brake fade racing my gsxr 600 with Brembo master cylinder, stock disks and braided lines should be all you need.

[@Farsightful]

Congratulations on that very beautiful bike. i hope to meet you on france's road someday.

[@ragerider6283]

Nice vid. Great bike. Surely it's time for Suzuki to update & relaunch the GSXR750 in Europe. Sales seem good for the relaunched supersports 600's & they wouldn't need to do much to it at all. Also the 1000's are getting too expensive & too fast so the 750 would sit in that sweet spot for those upgrading or downsizing. It's also a great all rounder, especially if it has adjustable footpegs which previous models like this one have.

[@robbikebob]

I'm NOT a sportsbike rider, but my mate is (he's owned 15 GSXR) and I've had a go on his 750 and 1000 and I WAY preferred the 750. It was nicer to ride, sweeter and a lot more comfortable and spacious than the 1000! I could have rode the 750 all afternoon whereas I'd properly had enough of the 1000 after 10 minutes.....

[@geoffball9547]

An ancient poet once wrote (para phrasing here )"To go up to the attic and examine that old sheep's skin jacket is praise" For Neeves it's the GSXR 750 and for me it's CBR 929. The bike is not important but do you have that fondness of memory, skills and connection with your riding past? Even if you are still riding (that jacket) it's a sweet smile.

[@bloffs3352]

MCN and Neevsey.nuff said.

[@BachsRides]

2:12 - there's no middleweight inline fours Neevesy? What about the CBR600RR and ZX6R?

[@eb-pe8xg]

I've got a '22 Speed Triple RS, and a '00 Suzuki 1200 Bandit (for when it rains). The RS is in the shop so I've been riding the Bandit. The Bandit is plush and comfortable (almost "fluffy") and I (almost) like riding it more than the Speedy, just because it's a simple, no frills bike.

[@paulfowler6665]

What about the CBR600 or the ZX6R are they not affordable middleweight sports bikes?

[@3rduncle]

They're not middleweights by the standard definitions. They're supersports bikes. Middleweights were defined as bikes that sit between supersports and superbikes. These definitions mean less and less nowadays.

[@jordanjoestar8839]

The GSXR750 blows the plastics right off them. It is head and shoulders above them in power, and weighs less.

@@jordanjoestar8839what about the Daytona 675R? Say pre 2013? I love the look of the trellis subframe version.

I have basically the same setup for brakes on my 2001 GSX-R1000 with 2008 1000 forks and 2016 750 Brembo calipers and Hel lines. I also find brakes fading. I feel the calipers might be the issue. I'm doubting those calipers are as good as the name on them seem to suggest...

[@patwilliam543]

I really think there should be trackdays for sub 140bhp and sub 80bhp. Would be so much less intimidating for people who ride 'normal' middleweight nakeds etc and just want to have a giggle on track.

[@jordanjoestar8839]

I work at a massive motorcycle dealership that sells brand new S1000RRs, Fireblades and more. Regardless of what i spent time on, my 2015 750 is my favorite sports bike of all time. Period. Riding a gaming pc on wheels is all you feel on the electronic mess of modern bikes. The 750 stands alone in its purity and weighs less than all the modern 600s as well. It's a KILLER package and I hate electronics so it's only natural. I'm 6'3 and it's comfy for me as well for half-day rides. Its taken down many 1000s in stop light races and back roads. Update it with a TFT and the QS from the GSX8R and itll be perfect.
