I own this bike. Can only recommend. Good for all types of riding, including touring 1000’s of miles. More power than I’ll ever need on the road. Super comfy and easy to ride. Have no problems with the display.

It's a Awesome bike for sure! And Wolf of Main Street!! Hey thanks for Watching and Commenting my friend 🙏🏻! Ride Safe and don't be a stranger, have yourself a great holiday!!

[@tammyforbes2101]

I have the 2016 GSX-S1000 naked version and got it turned up and it’s a hoot, weights nearly nothing at 425lbs and has 151hp after a bunch of mods and tuning! I love it thing is a rocket off the line to! I have friends with regular liter bikes and anytime we do a hit I always pull away at first then they run me down and blow around me at like 120mph, but till then my bike is actually quicker! I chalk it up to the low gearing and different torque curve! I got the low end they got the top end.

[@RayBowdenRides]

@tammyforbes2101 Tammy that is so cool you get them liter bikes off the line till around a 120, You go girl!!! Thank you Tammy for watching and Commenting- your awesome girl!! Don't be a Stranger!!!

​@tammyforbes2101 the 2nd gen is so much better than the first gen. The quick shifter and drive by wire throttle really makes a difference.

Its a very cool bike , but is the wind a problem over 75 mph.?

I own a blue '23 model. Love the bike. Put an air filter, velocity stacks, full exhaust, get a flash and it really wakes the bike up.

[@DivByZer0]

@@RayBowdenRides True. Most riders who think things like "this bike has to be woken up" are not capable to use the stock performance to more than 60-70%. But it's the internet - everyone rides faster than Marc Márquez and has more knowledge than the bike engineers.

[@JRDNGIXX]

I have this bike.. some clips on my channel too. Picked it up for 12.9k OTD in CA at the end of 2022 and did a bunch of upgrades. Exhaust, ecu tune, suspension, damper etc. One thing it definitely needs imo that's a must have and not a want is the shock in the rear if ones doing serious canyon runs but for the price and what you get you can't beat it with a baseball bat! Love mine and totally happy with it!! Previous bikes owned? Suzuki gsxr 750, 1000 Honda cbr 600rr,1000RR's Ktm rc8r, fz07, R1, Ninja 1000, Harleys, Guzzies etc. This bike checks all the boxes!

Just picked up my ‘24 after riding the 2016 for over 6 years. Your review is spot on; it’s a great bike! This and the street triple is the best value for the money out there. Only thing I have left to do is the exhaust. Will likely go with the arrow headers and yoshi slip-on.

[@need2lose20lbs9]

Ray, I absolutely love your review style. Keep up the great work. I just picked up a 24 gsx-s1000 in blue & white. I've owned over 12 bikes including a 22 Hayabusa, 21 ZX14r, 23 1250GS and a bunch of Harleys. The Suzuki GSX-S1000 is my absolute favorite of all time. It is so underrated and I agree that 150hp is the max usable for the street. The only thing I would add to your review is to warn people that this isn't a beginners bike. It has a wicked amount of power and is super nimble. A deadly combo for most beginners.

[@RayBowdenRides]

You hit the nail on the head!! Thanks for Watching and Commenting my friend 🙏🏻, ,Good talking to You- Ride Safe and don't be a stranger!!

[@pielichiewicz]

There's similar Suzuki model for beginners (GSX-S950) with 95hp which you can lower to 47hp (A2 driving licence cat). It is ca 3000USD cheaper and if you gain more experience you can unlock it to full 150hp.

The bike moves like a monster and looks very well finished with adjustable suspensions, but the screen 13:44 seems like difficult to read, no??

You can literally buy two of these for the price of your M1000R and have money left over for lots of mods and a full set of new riding gear. Is it twice the bike? Maybe, but like you said the Suzuki is the better street bike. The GSX-S1000 has been the best kept secret in motorcycles since 2016 and it remains that way. It will be a shame when Suzuki decides to give it the axe. The biggest problem Suzuki has right now is the 8R and 8S are on promo financing for 1.99% or 2.99% respectively, the S1000 is 10.49%. Suzuki must be joking with that. They won’t sell any of these until it’s on promo financing. There’s already no demand for this bike and they aren’t doing anything to help sell it.

[@RayBowdenRides]

Totally Agree! Thanks for watching and Commenting my friend 🙏🏻. Have a Awesome 2024!

That's a real good question why not - I thinks is because they didn't want to raise the price. I think if the bike was 13.900 with a tft it would be a total Success!

[@questforknowledge750]

Tuners are seeing 10hp less then the 1st gen of this bike they figure the cams have been changed to meet eu emissions.

i owned this bike, liked it allot and not many minus points. To bad Suzuki use a ugly ass screen with bad visibility. If they use the screen from the GT its much better

[@RayBowdenRides]

I totally agree, that would be a hit with the Gt Screen!! Hey thanks for watching and commenting my friend 🙏🏻, Ride Safe and don't be a stranger!!!

[@walk4348]

It's not considered a hyper naked. It doesn't have enough hp to meet hyper naked standards. It has a 2005 gixxer 1k bottom end, 2008 gixxer 1k head and 2005 gixxer 1k cams. I swapped to 2008 gixxer 1k cams also. I have a little more power up top. But its still not hyper naked.

[@RayBowdenRides]

Hmm ok- well it sure runs dang good , that was one of my most favorite bike rides!

[@yomamaa13]

It has a k5 engine from 2005 with revised valve train and cams. I don't know what in tf you are talking about, but it is a hyper naked (classifed officially) and is a liter bike with very comparable power to its race siblings. You obviously do not own a motorcycle.

[@RayBowdenRides]

@yomamaa13 I know it's a fast bike and Super fun - Thanks for watching and commenting my friend 🙏🏻. Ride Safe.

The bike sucks just cause of a lcd display? You always ride looking down at your display?? Pathetic! You will always find complaining soy boys. If you don’t like the lcd, Then go buy the GT model or go buy a BMW 1000rr. Or any other bike with tft.
