Breaking: The 2022 Suzuki GSX-S1000 Is Here To Challenge The Super Naked Class - Here's What's New!

[@Bigbossman12624]

Love Suzuki, hope more of the bikes get a much needed refresh.

[@korrasatsuki8773]

I just took one look at this bike and thought WOW Suzuki does it again!

[@thinkdunson]

people who complain about the lack of an IMU won't be complaining when they see the MSRP. my dinky little tuono 660 was 11.1k (with options), so 11.3k for a liter bike like this is absolutely freaking incredible.

[@rm25088]

Don't care about cruise control and leaning whatever. I am used to riding bikes with absolutely nothing. So, this is definitely the one I will be getting.

[@razorbak6783]

I have the 2016 and its the best bike I've every owned. I can see a ecu flash, full exhaust to get rid of 15lbs of weight and restriction, and maybe a light weight lithium battery would really wake this bike up and make it a little more competitive with less weight and more power. To bad they went up in weight....my 2016 is 456lbs wet. But I did all the mods plus some listed above and she is a beast....never dyno'd her but I can feel the gains I got by a lot.

[@Reckless40]

Definitely looks better then the 2021 MT09. Any word if it has electronic cruise control? There is no reason for any throttle by wire bike not to already come with cruise in 2021.

[@Soulbreeze]

I just want the 750 version with a F designation and a subframe that can handle some saddlebags. Would be such a good small sport tourer/commuter/1-bike owner do everything bike.

[@eugenepagulayan]

best update on this super naked bike by suzuki..hope to see also in gsx s750

[@Tobeon2]

Yup yup.. I am currently riding 2019 S750 which I think it is probably the best bang for the buck bike. I would love to see some updates especially the dash though

[@exothermal.sprocket]

The 750 got a substantial update not long ago, good horsepower jump. It was essentially an imported GSR750 for a while which was a pretty miserable bike generally. The update was a BIG improvement in power, brakes, suspension, styling, features.

[@decaygrim8943]

I finally found my next upgrade. The gsxs 1000

[@JDelta87]

Looks sharp. Now if Yamaha would just go ahead and announce the Mt-10 for updated comparisons.

[@IDontKnow-bb6mt]

This is what I am curious about. This update Suzuki made puts the S1000 close/equal to the current MT-10. The S1000 is still a little down on power and still a few pounds heavier.

[@robertprosser6856]

That headlight will be a pain to clean.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

And will light up the night to enable you to see where you're going.

[@AwesomeEricD]

Is the 750 gonna get them updates too ?

[@ward1234567]

It will be replaced with. 950cc

[@emirbenaissa3441]

@@ward1234567 Nooo :(

[@ward1234567]

@@emirbenaissa3441 yeah it's a shame but kawa and yamaha both have ~950 cc offerings and it's cheaper for Suzuki to modify the 1000cc version. I just bought one of the last new s750 in my region and love it!

[@exothermal.sprocket]

If they do, maybe they'll repurpose the current gen GSX-R750 engine. The GSXS is using the 750 engine from 2005. But I suspect Euro5 will be the reason they do anything with it in the near future.

[@dtbrown1978]

Considering this is euro 5 compliment and makes a bit more power means tuning potential with tune, full exhaust and other boltons is very promising.

[@TheWatcherWatching]

I have the gsxs1000 F 2018. After seeing many videos of this new version...I'm not quite sure it's enough for me to upgrade.

[@JDeezle21]

Agreed I'm with you except on the none f version with me.

[@toofastnobrakes]

Hope they update the 750 as well

[@ConfirmedPatriot]

Such a fan of that K5 engine.

[@gsxraiders]

I love the color and outline. It makes me feel like it's manly but yet still allow us to feel like a kid again lol.

[@gmac8852]

K5 type engine has never had trouble keeping up with anything. In fact 2005 gsxr 1000 give new Ducati a good run for the money.

[@jordanjimenez4475]

The ducati is cleary less reliable and more expensive but the ducati has like 210hp and this gsxs 150hp you cant compare them even if they are naked bikes they are not on the same level

[@monkmoto1887]

@@jordanjimenez4475 they’re so close actually you’ll never notice the difference in speed between them until you’re over 140mph. Especially with the gearing difference, everywhere you’ll use it except huge race tracks like road America the difference in acceleration won’t be big at all. Shit I take wayyyyy faster bikes with my z1000 all the time. R1s, rsv4s, 2 super dukes in one run. It’s not the arrow it’s the Indian firing it. I bet you’ll feel a lot more comfortable getting good with the broad and forgiving power curve of the 1000cc 4 banger and gsxr1000 swing arm over the high strung Ducati with its big lopsided lever of a swing arm

[@jordanjimenez4475]

@@monkmoto1887 yeah probably the gsxs must me more comfortable than a ducati but that ducati is a torque monster

[@ArneAsada69]

Kind of looks like a blue KTM Super Duke.

[@dry509]

Know about all the details...want a ride review.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Motorcycle companies be like: "It is styled to look like a jet-fighter." Meanwhile guys over at Lockheed Martin: "Our new fighter jet is designed to look like a sports motorcycle." Comon. I want my motorcycles to look like a motorcycle. Whether the lack of IMU actually makes a lick of difference for the average person doing the average sporty thing, remains to be seen. These days it's like guys bragging about the hardware in their iPhone, which from an experience perspective means next to nothing. If the ABS and TC works really well, a lack of IMU isn't a downer necessarily. It wasn't that long ago and bikes didn't have ABS, or had very rudimentary ABS that was trash.

[@Regdor]

If there's no IMU, the price had better be about 12 grand, at most. Otherwise there are too many other choices that are better value for money.

[@TheCdubbleyoo]

Expect something closer to $9K USD.

[@WW-wf8tu]

Interesting. I like the Ducati competitor more. In this segment. Thanks guys!

[@mindspinn311]

I hope the GSX-S1000F model isn’t dead but it probably is. I was so close to buying one a couple years ago. Suzuki is so good at offering at amazing bang for the buck and they get virtually no credit for their efforts. I will definitely be considering one of these for my next bike. I’m sure the price will be right.

[@jordanjimenez4475]

For the price comfort accessories and quality in the same category id suggest you look at the ninja 1000 sx 2020 good price for all you get with the bike

[@sakiyehwalker7326]

Very nice bike I like the color

[@Coldestaevadoit]

why do folks like the boring grey model... this is a motorcycle for crying out loud.. save the boring color for your car get a bright color for your bike. its supposed to have flash

[@jordanjoestar8839]

I love it but my girl always rides, so Ill have to stick to my GSX650F for its stepped bench seat. Probably going to go to the GSX1250F for the xtra power but same comfort.

[@dry509]

This bike previous gen was fun to ride. Price? Please ride compare to 2021 MT-09 or Z900.

[@StraightFlashHacks]

I hope it.

[@admirkaralic7209]

Cheers Suzuki :D

[@CraigSmith568]

I like this bike, but the dashes they put on bikes today are just unnecessary. Also riding modes are just not needed. Really needs an analog speedometer.

[@monkmoto1887]

I don’t mind LCD, it’s a reliable as the analogue(although this ones hard to read), it’s the computer run tfts that are a headache

[@christopher9626]

Just call it a "Gixxus 1000". The K5 motors are great, but are dinosaurs. If they are going to keep usinh an old platform, they need to start innovating and making the bikes competitive towards the other brands. I've always loved Suzuki and have owned 4 of them, but after I started demoing and researching other bikes, They really are years behind most of the other brands, especially at their price points. If this bike is 10-12k there is absolutely zero reason to buy it. that price point is flooded with exciting bikes that make this bike seem like its being ridden by fred flintstone and has square wheels. I bought a Gixxus 750 the first year it came out and it was the best bike that I've ever owned.14,000 miles and there was never one thing wrong with it, Have the valves checked at 12k(I think) and not one was out of speck. The bike even shook off a 55 mph deer strike. I only sold because I bought a KTM 1290 Super adventure R and I was tired of the inline 4(This was my first one. I'm Used to Twins). But it was such a plain jane bike. I had a tripometer, thats it. However, neither this one nor the 1000 has ever sold well. Ive never seen one at a dealer that wasnt under discount. In standard Suzuki tradition, they made another bike that just....good enough, but not great. For the price point of the Gixxus 1000, there is way too much competition with more horsepower and better tech and a more exciting ride.

[@tg8150]

After he said it weighs in at 472lbs., I instantly went back to my MT-09 search. Come on Suzuki, this ain’t 1990. Lighten up!

[@ripF5C]

You do realize it’s Yamaha direct competitor is the MT-10 which weighs 467.5lbs right buddy? Lmao

[@dtbrown1978]

Very excited for this unless Yamaha updates the mt10. Good upgrade from my z1000.

[@JohnSmith-zi9or]

That headlight is way too small. People in cars are going to pull out in front of you. Mark my words.

[@ericeven4090]

If only it didnt have all the rider aids. This is exactly the bike im looking for but im not interested in all the gimics. Motorcycle sales are in a slump and i would love to buy new to help out but no one makes a bike im interested in now. Its not that the current bikes are terrible, its just i dont care for abs, rider modes or traction control. Even 10 years ago i had plenty of choices without all that but now i have almost zero choices. Perhaps manufacturers should go back a little in time and make proper bikes. Not every one wants a tft screen even if you think they do. Analog tach for me or no sale.

[@mycobrahatesyou]

We're a dying breed. Pick them up while you can, soon all electric per govt. Mandates. These are the 'good ol days'. Don't waste it

[@ericeven4090]

@@mycobrahatesyou I fear I have already missed the boat. I am currently in the market for a new bike and have zero desire for abs, modes, quick shifters etc yet want good power and sharp handling. There is nothing out there for me. I'm going to have to buy used and pay a premium.

[@solomonjthomas4588]

It is a lot like the stratosphere concept

[@tuonofever904]

Still has a long way to go to be competitive. For the money its still a good bike. MT10 is overpriced for what it is. Still saying that Aprilia has the perfect balance of everything....price, electronics, power, and weight.

So even with the updated rider aids it's still basicly the same engine since 2006... Come on Zuki! A question for people who like google history. What year did Suzuki last come with a New bike to their segment? BTW I've been a fan of Suzuki since the Slabside came back in1985.

[@monkmoto1887]

What’s the point in changing it? Besides that they’ve actually changed it repeatedly. Now it has viable valve timing and all kinds of other stuff. Ktm has been making its superduke engine since long before the it became the 1290? Since around, oh 2006 or so they’ve been using it.. every bike manufacturer uses the same engines, even when they say it’s new it’s normally no

[@loganf83]

1290R FTW!

[@omarqb]

How many miles are these mbike good for?

[@stoggy4839]

put a drop of water on a TFT dash and you render it useless. Now imagine fog, rain, sweat, dew or any kind of splash. ABS is utter BS. Name one brake fluid manufacturer that suggests preheating the brake fluid to 200 degrees and maintaining that temp during the entire ride? I shouldn't have to pay $2000 for something just so i can pay another $150 to remove.

[@Taser1-1]

1:41 "jet fighter" hahahaha

[@thekin10]

The price(10999Euro) msrp13439 U.S.. So low cant have every last tech or will be 20K U.S like others and will not sell. Plus they will let them go probably under 10K so half price of others.

[@ChuckTownRC51]

Deleting comments, classy guys.

[@Fearless154]

What is going on with Suzuki these days do they just gave up or don't give a F*** anymore. This class is one of the most desired and competitive right now and this is the best from Suzuki even if it was released as an update to gsxs1000 back in 2017 it still would be lackluster compared to the market there are much faster and better handling naked bikes out there for a good price too. this was a perfect time to bring back the B-king with lighter GSXS chassis and this could be the best selling hyper naked, they already have euro5 Hayabusa engines.

[@gixxusmetalman7435]

Fark man,how fast much faster do you need to go? 150hp is enough. Go buy a bmw or a Ducati then . Just enjoy the ride.....or not

[@Fearless154]

@@gixxusmetalman7435 It's not about how fast I want or need to go, but Suzuki's unwillingness to compete. Their motorcycle division is slowly going out of business. The Gsxs1000 is the least selling bike in what is obviously one of the most desired categories of bigger bikes. Repackaging it with new headlights and last generation electrnics won't make it sell better.

Every manufacturer brought the weight down. BMW S1000R, KTM 1290R, TRIUMPH 1200RS, NEW MT-09. And SUZUKI goes up 11 lbs, from 461 to 472 lbs. Even KTM 1290 R is lighter. Total disappointment for sure, because they definitely did not even try to at least keep the same weight. Suzuki is dying slowly.

[@danlford]

Guarantee that it's all in the euro5 spec exhaust. Put a full system on it and I'll bet it will lose that 15 pounds and probably more.

Ninja H2 is a supercharged fully faired superbike and 3x the price lol what is this question?

[@mycobrahatesyou]

I owned 3 new bmws, 1 s1000rr and 2 s1000r. The bmw is less comfortable, harsh suspension and leaned over more. Parts are pricey and the reliability is questionable for long term ownership. After playing with the euros for years, my favorites are raw jap bikes and harleys. I have a vmax 1700, no TC, no modes, just reliable power and fun. This thing is 11,500 and provides 146hp to the wheel with a pipe and flash. Reliable old school brawler. Wheelie monster, fun without the fancy bs electronics. It's a great buy imo.
