I'm 6'5" and my GSX8R feels like it was built specifically for me. Especially with my beat up knees. My brother has an '06 GSXR-750 that is an absolute weapon of a bike but my big ass just can't fit on it. I've put a tail tidy on mine and just got my new levers today. I love this bike and in the 2 weeks I've owned it all I've gotten are compliments. It's the yellow btw.

@@kylenye1228Have you seen the 2025 8R that comes in black and grey? It looks amazing. The fairing from the front actually looks like a H2, (well, at least that’s what crossed my mind the moment I saw it). Personally I like twin engines, (currently riding a 1000cc V-twin). I saw a video of a guy who replaced the muffler and his 8R suddenly had that twin roar. While a little low on HP, I really like this bike. Unless you have to have a high HP engine, you’ll love the 8R.

after about 3000-4000km on my gsx8s the quickshifter and blipper work very good. You have to press a bit harder than normal of course but you can really take corner liek a race car, going quickly up and down between 4th and 1st gear. Id say from my personal experience the quickshifter has a bit of a longer "break in" period.

Rode the 8S last year and it was one of the most fun bikes I've ridden in a long time. It's the fun of riding a slower bike fast. Plenty of torque down low where you're going to use it on the street without the need to rev the bike to the moon to get it moving. I think this bike and others like it are going to take over track days and club racing the same way the SV650 did 20+ years ago. The more experienced among you know what I'm talking about.

I just bought this yesterday. Upgraded from a 2012 Ninja 650. It has a ton more power than my Ninja. I'm fully enjoying it so far. Even though I'm still in the break-in period. My only gripes are, no cruise control, and the inability to put a slip-on installed without replacing the full exhaust. Other than that, amazing upgrade for me, and an amazing bike. Got a 3 year, unlimited mile warranty for mine too, that allows mods.

It's selling super well because in the UK you get 4.9% APR, 0 deposit required. It's 130 pounds a month on PCP for 3 years. That's cheaper than council tax. Also in the UK suzuki offer 7-year/ 70,000 mile warranty. I'd say suzuki UK is a bit of an exception.

All these top vloggers highly rate this bike. Not a single bad review so far. It's not surprising seen as it has all the looks, price point, and perfect combination of street+track ready abilities and can easily be modded specifically for either or type of riding. It's going to be my first middleweight bike. It's the only one that I like the look of too. I commute daily weather permitted. Will retire my beginner bikes to start with the track until I find my next bike (either for track or commuting).

I had a 2013 Suzuki Gladius (the ugly duckling SV650 clone/variation) as my first bike. Loved it a lot, especially as a first bike. I put a ton of custom work into it after crashing it the first time and surprisingly made it beautiful. I thank that bike for giving me my first riding experiences and full bike tear-down/rebuild experience. Going by how you describe your experiences on that GSX8R, and how it sounds and appears to accelerate and it's gear ratio's, it honestly just seems as if Suzuki just pumped out a renewed full-faired SV650. Which isn't bad at all, in fact, the SV650 is an extremely coveted bike by all racers, from amateur to pro. Practically universally known as the ultimate starting/beater track bike. Glad to see Suzuki still competing well.

Great review. Loved it. Can’t wait for more. I have the 8S. Thinking of trading when the 8R gets here. The quick shifter; first it does soften with a couple or three thousand kms and secondly you have missed the point. The bike is designed to be ridden at 3-7000 rpm and is exciting in that range. As you said you ride in a higher gear, shift at 7000 even in a hurry. That means you change down at lower revs too. Change down at 3-5,000 rpm and it is smooth and easy, after 2-3000 km of riding. You can even change down with some power on. And if you are holding revs dead constant, always use the clutch up and down. Suzuki missed that memo.

I rode that bike back to back with the 8S. The 8S is snappier as the S750 makes its torque higher u the rev range. On the S750 you have to wait or change down. Can't argue the top end, but you will seldom get the Hp to the road as after a gear change or two you will be going too fast. The 8R has more accessible and sharper power, despite the numbers.

I have 8s and have nearly 3000 miles on it and love it, my quick shifter works great up and down so not sure what the issue is with your 8r.

Nice review. I bought one! If you, in the general sense, can get past your ego, it's all the road bike you need. It's a great all round package but I wouldn't personally be looking to go to the track on it any time soon. However, I don't intend to so not an issue for me personally. Only complaint as you say so far is rhe QS is a bit rough on downshift's but based on the other owners comments, it does loosen up & get better with use over time supposedly.

TST Industries seems to have taken these Suzuki 8Rs up a notch. I wonder after all the aftermarket add ons it will put the price in the RS660 range. Although Suzuki is known to run forever and Aprilia not so much. Maybe tailoring the 8R to the individual rider's needs with an aftermarket flash is the way to go.

I like the idea of taking naked and turning them into sport bikes. Makes comfort and features a bit more important than just straight HP. And i gotta be honest. From light to light i only need so much. I might as well be comfortable while doing it.

Check your VIN for a recall on the chain. Mine (same color as yours) is not within the range for the recall. recall range is JS1EM13B3R7100573 through JS1EM13B5R7100932

I really wanted to like this bike, but that handlebar setup is a deal breaker for me. It looks like Suzuki wanted to save money and reuse the triple tree from the GSX-8S. So instead of raised clip-ons, they just bolted the handlebars onto where the bar riser would be. I'm sticking with my beloved GSX-R750 😊

The only Suzuki ever worth buying was the Bandit 1200-1250. Even that was a heavy outdated beast, but it was bulletproof. This looks like a parts bin special.

Heavily looked at this bike as a sport tourer, or a comfortable sport bike with good fuelling. Only 3 petty things stopped me, low pegs, 180 rear tyre (really wanted a 190) and 2 cylinder (really wanted to get a 4 cylinder due to them becoming instinct, also that to me is what’s in my head a sport bike should have). Spent a little more and went for the ninja 1000sx and honestly couldn’t be happier. I thought I might get buyers remorse but the extra due to the premium look and feel made it worth it. That being said I respect this bike just as much, and I’m sure I would have been happy with it. My compromise was parting with my cash. I am a cheap guy with OCD 😂. Meaning I don’t want to spend more money than something is worth and any short coming will literally play on my mind causing me to loose sleep until I get rid of the problem. I find for someone like me, spend extra for the things I’m truly passionate about, and cheap scape the day to day items that I lack interest in. The yellow and black looks great on this bike. Blue I’m not the biggest fan.

I really hate parallel twins. Don't know why. Love the L-twin of the sv650. But the parallel twin is just not for me. I4 or L or V for me. But if I2* is not for me.

I own a Yamaha FZ09 that I bought new in 2017...This Suzuki is a turd compared to it. The FZ09 will handle better in the corners, twist the throttle on it and your looking at the sky, shifts smooth as butter up and down, is so comfortable to ride all day long, and is an absolute hooligan bike because of that awesome cross plane triple motor...I wouldn't buy this Suzuki even if it was $2,000 cheaper...This Suzuki is all show no go which makes ya look like a FOOL on the streets. The FZ will smoke this Suzuki in a race!!! THIS BIKE is a bigger bike for people stepping up from a small engine bike. Basically a cruiser in sport bike attire...

Cool bike, helpful review, thanks. The yellow/black, really nice IMO. 12:17 A fully faired bike with aggressive looks, but fun and comfortable to ride on roads, like the Ninja 650 and 500. Agreed.

You need some time to know how to properly use the QS especially to shift down.. Read the manual.. There is specific speed & rpm to down shift smoothly.

Looks like a nifty platform, but for the price, I’d have expected at least partially adjustable suspension, and a bit more HP. That being said however, I’m sure it will put a grin on more than a few faces.

Interesting motorcycle but the price is too high. Here in Czech republic this GSXR is only 500 bucks cheaper then RS660 or Daytona 660. CBR650 is 300 bucks cheaper. Tuono costs pretty much the same. It needs to be at least 600 bucks cheaper here.
