Don´t think the world needs another 20k Hypernaked. I like the Suzuki for what it is. 150hp, only the most necessary electronics, Japanese reliability, affordable. Well done Suzuki!

They are lazy imo... the rider aids are fantastic on my Tuono factory and I wouldn’t want that bike as much without them, even though they’re off much of the time. Suzuki are like an old band that only plays the songs it’s remembered for at gigs where the audience is as aged as them.

At the end of the day Suzuki isnt pushing the bike in anyones face and they have the horsepower and toruqe of the bike on their page, they dont lie about their dyno numbers and the price is stupid cheap for a brand new 2021 bike with more than enough horsepower and new age tech.

I think the suzuki's need to be appreciated for what they are... very good foundations, very good chassis' and very well balanced. Does every bike really need to have 200+ bhp, every electronic feature out there that to bump up the price and dull the rider experience, and limits only realised by motogp riders on a world-class track? Its in those same reviews of those top of class sports bikes that everyone says that 99% of riders will never come close to realising the bikes full potential... I do like the rawness that comes with keeping these Suzuki's simple, tried and tested.

No fancy pants, no latest tec, but Suzuki had the balls to come with this oldtimer to a hillclimb. With a 214 kg, 1000 cc, from a former super bike derived dinosaur. And it didn`t fall apart. Seems that Suzuki has built a proper bike, despite all the whim about the missing sparkles.

[@victorherrero4790]

I like what Suzuki is doing, just refreshing their products and putting the exact amount of tech. Most of European brands ( MV augusta, BMW, Ducati, KTM) put so much tech on their bikes than even their riders dont know how to use them...plus all with TFT dashs that looks the same. Suzuki does it their way, enough usable tech and they are reliable. Thats enough for 90% of the people. Well done Suzuki.!!

If you really pay attention to most reviewers they're saying a lot of the same things.. which is that the bike does everything very well. Comfort. Rideability. Handling. Just enough power. Quick shifter is amazing. Styling is fresh and exciting. It's just that SPECIAL IT factor that people are missing. The excitement of something NEW and cutting edge. That's just something we can't escape as human beings. We always want cutting edge, regardless of how amazing a product really is. The one thing I myself and personally disappointed they didn't include is a TFT. I mean come on. If I buy a brand new bike these days.. it needs to have a TFT. Other than that.. I'm trying to get out of my own way and slap some cash down for what I KNOW is an amazing bike, regardless. Great comprehensive review!!

I feel that I'm in the minority when it comes to caring about a TFT display and a bunch of menus to sort through on a bike. I've experienced them and while there nice to look at, I ultimately forgot about it after the initial set up.

Perhaps, but from there and then to making a butt-ugly LCD screen is still a bit of a stretch.
