Brand New 2024 Suzuki GSX-S1000 is Broken In!

[@k1mura92]

Got a '22 model alongside my Ducati Hypermotard 950. I love my Suzuki so much. Looks awesome, amazingly smooth and so god damn fast as long as you keep it in 1st or 2nd. Honestly the bike is almost "too good". Its so clean, its like scalpel. That engine is amazing. A couple of tips based on my experience that you (or others) might find useful. (1) Change tires sooner rather than later. The Dunlops that the bike comes on are of worse quality than if you bought the same tires from a dealer. After around 10k km I bought a pair of Dunlop Sport Smart mk3 and it revolutionized the bikes handling. I mean truly night and day difference. Had I knew that from the getgo, I would literally change tires after first service. (2) After first service you will likely notice a clicking sound that comes and goes. This is the CCT (cam chain tensioner), which is automatic. The sound will come and go as it adjusts itself. Don't worry about the sound. If it really, really bothers you, the only "fix" is to install a manual CCT which you have to adjust yourself. New japanese sportbikes all have this "issue", just understand its the bike working as it should and nothing to worry about. (3) After 1-2k km, the chain (the one that connects wheel and engine) will loosen up quite a bit. Once you tighten it, it will stay tight for a long time. Just know it loosens up relatively quickly before the first tightening. You'll notice the engine response improving significantly once you tighten it back up again (It probably hasn't loosened up just yet in your case, though!)

Wow thanks for this! Yes I was worried about the clicking sound, but the dealer said it was normal.

[@S1R-ider]

This helps me out a lot. I’m thinking of buying one very soon. Thanks!

[@michaelmckenna2882]

Awesome bike mate. I bought mine at the beginning of last year. Great value for money and it hold its head high on the track as well. Change your front brake pads to SBS RST's, once bedded in they are much better than stock pads. Enjoy and be safe out there. From Australia 👍

I just got mine a couple weeks ago and the first thing I did was replace the damn mirrors. They look like bug antennas lmao the bike looks so much better with a set of bar ends 👌

Yeah might have to get bar ends to replace the winglet mirrors

If you think that the throttle is snappy put it in A mode then it's snappy. C for rain B for traffic A mode for everything else to put a massive smile on your face.

[@matthartshorn9483]

Also....I chopped in my triumph speed triple rs 1050 for this bike and the wind is so much better on the Suzuki. I don't know how they've done it but I can do 120mph no probs but on my triumph over 80mph the wind would push my jacket onto my throat and choke me.

[@JagMoto636]

Yeah last few times I rode I left it in A mode. Just going to leave it there so I can get comfortable with all the power

[@JagMoto636]

I came from a zx6r so I think the wind is terrible lol

@@ak-47821 the quick shifter is really good. I think it’s smoother than the zx6r. I would probably go for the mt09 since it’s lighter and more tech plus cruise control

Not sure why everyone complains about the Gsxr’s. Gotta K7 1000 and can ride it for hours, no back or wrist pain whatsoever. Pushing 40 so you young dudes shouldn’t have any problems 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@florme6494]

Yes, not everyone is as healthy as you, and certainly not so outwards in promoting that.

[@obamavariant9128]

The s will be more comfortable than the r. Some people enjoy the added comfort

[@k1mura92]

For me the issue is just why do I wanna be hunched over the bike in the streets? If I wanna do highway I'd rather just have a cruiser or something. If I want a fun fast bike for the twisties and the streets, a naked like this is just superior cause you get the comfort and handling for the streets, and plenty of front tire feel for twisties. The only thing you lose is the sweet looks of a purebred racing machine. Which of course does matter, and I totally understand people who wants their bike to have that look. But for me personally, I'd rather be slightly less cool but considerably more comfortable.
