Damned impressive! Love that you chose Suzuki 8r to do it too. Well done!!!!!

[@timmyzhou1]

It was a great pleasure to be there witnessing the record run in person. Tim was such a polite guy. So much fun test ride the new GSX-8R and offroading the Vstrom-800. Now I also become an owner of GSX-R 600 since the event, hope to see you guys next year at Suzuki Live!

[@homersimpson2963]

Really enjoyed watching the onboard fast lap.

[@BikeMatters]

What an achievement on a brilliant bike, well in Tim nicely done! Congrats to everyone involved 👍👍

[@UsernameKate]

I've absolutely loved this series!!! Thank you team!

[@jpmotorsport4728]

Nice job Tim 👍🏽😎🏍🔥🔥🔥 absolutely awesome job mate , you could tell you were proper on it 👍🏽, this series has been great . Nice work 👍🏽😎🏍🔥🔥🔥

[@jonomasonILoveU]

You are absolutely amazing ! , what a rider. I nearly bought this bike last year but ended up with the new Duke 390. Hopfully will get the new GSX-8R in 2025.

[@ganuvien]

Man you're riding the hell out of that bike! 🤌

[@justinwolfe1471]

This was solid, through and through. Well done.

[@ragerider6283]

Great vid & bike. Congrats on the lap record. Sterling job. The GSX8R is a bit of a dark horse & a really underrated package. Needs a fair bit of work to get it up to speed but it responds really well to the upgrades.

This was an awesome series 👏

Well bloody done.

great work. Good to follow.

Awesome effort that mate 💪🏻🏍️👍🏻👍🏻

[@dalemeadows225]

Well done mate

[@spency787]

Think I’d still rather have an early 2000’s GSXR750 for under £2k though.

[@agentcovert]

At least here in the states any Gxsr over 10yrs old is seriously clapped out already from neglected maintenance and heavy abuse on the daily..riders rev bombing while wheeling for miles on end well over triple digit speeds..that 2k bike would need a minimum of 5k worth of repairs if not much more..the people that bought Gxsr bikes rode them hard and put them away wet..maybe find a basement or museum bike in fair shape..

[@popdatclutch3010]

@@agentcovertyea no seriously. Any gsxr for under 6k probably isn’t worth it. And even those are gunna be old and need maintenance.

[@jfoz7602]

Brilliant that 👏

[@Jaded-Wanderer]

Well in !!

[@rickybobby7660]

What lap record are you referring to? Supertwins are in the 1:35’s. Minitwins are in the 1:37’s but that’s not really relevant because minitwins are 130cc less, limited to 72bhp and cost less than the bolt ons fitted to this…?

[@electricporsche]

I'm off to tade in my SV650 😂

[@lolzlarkin3059]

He said he was trying to beat the minitwin lap record. He didn't say he was going to do it on a minitwin.

[@markstaley5922]

You had to really wrestle that girl round the track if you watch that back in slow motion wow well done

[@youtubed9695]

Very impressive.. love to see you beating people in fast group with 85bhp lol 😂

[@mociczyczki]

95 👌🏻😉

[@youtubed9695]

@@mociczyczki he said 95 was the limit for supertwins not the bike he's just rode

[@mociczyczki]

@@youtubed9695 maybe i dont watch whole 😉👌🏻

[@roadwarrior8560]

This bike is putting out 81hp as standard.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Fully uncorked, it's made as much as 88-90 horsepower at the wheel as there's been a lot of tuning going on in the States. That's a solid 100 horsepower at crank.

[@gilleyb1900]

That is mighty impressive.Just goes to show it’s not all about bhp.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

There's another 3-4 horsepower at the top end of RPM with an airbox lid modification, filter, and velocity stacks from a company in the States. Spending a lot of time at high revs, this would make even more difference. Not really sure what all they did to the intake on this bike. Would also like to see Blackstone Tech (BST) make carbon fiber wheels for the 8R.

[@lilianbaros5994]

Nice work! one question clips-ons can be usable for every days or it is in contact with every thing ?

[@chrisgilmore9752]

What rear suspension did you upgrade to i cant find any links for a fully adjustable suspension

[@266226]

Bitubo front and rear. Same set that it going on my bike. www.bitubo.com/Bitubo/cms/ENG/content/529-new-applications-for-suzuki-gsx-8r.html

[@itsmeagain1745]

No ecu mods?

[@nickrider5220]

Damn good going considering you're 15hp down and it's not a race bike (yet)👍🏻

[@SacrificiaLamb.The.Gixxerator]

Whats the Tire size are they running?

[@homersimpson2963]

120/70 - 180/55 That's the stock size anyway.

[@266226]

To get rid of the ABS did you just pull the fuses?

[@petrol11]

I believe you turn the sensor around so it's still connected

[@alm4132]

Watch part two.... bypassed completely.

[@266226]

@@alm4132 I watched all 3 parts, didn't catch how it was done.

[@alm4132]

@@266226 Changed the lines to braided directly to the calipers, installed plugs in the ABS ports.

[@l.s.1709]

Why is the picture quality so bad?

[@brokensmilephoto]

I think the gearing is just a touch off. For street riding like a normal person, it's a great bike. But when you crank down on that throttle, it seems like it's running out of RPM before it's running out of HP/TQ.

[@elimazer3018]

When you get the ecu flashed with new exhaust and velocity stacks, it gets better in the higher RPMs

[@Hannes7046]

Who is the rider? It's not Danny Kent, is it..?

[@colossalbiff3514]

Tim Neave

[@AdamNowell-m1k]

What lap record. 1,33.6 was our best twin lap, testing in March

[@DeadRoman]

100% pass on the gsx8

[@hookmaster1109]

A 20 year old GSXR 600 would smoke this pile of junk.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

But there's not enough water in Lake Superior to dilute your saltiness.

[@devonnobles1083]

And a 25 year old 1000 could beat that 600. And you couldn't beat this gsx8r laptime on either... So what does that have to do with anything?

[@exothermal.sprocket]

And an old F-15 jet could beat all of them.
