Lovely review, TP. Suzuki's are so underrated. Just not fashionable, like most Japanese bikes. Took out a Katana - same bike as GSX S1000, but smaller tank. Fabulous bike, just no range. I think they've nailed it with this one. Can't wait for the touring version...S1000T coming out soon. Cheers.

Good news about 1000T, I hope they don’t make it same as 1000F, by adding more plastic! This bike just needs a tall touring windshield, handlebar Risers and touring seat.The current 1000F are sitting at dealerships with big discounts, not popular, there is not much comfort, little wind protection, hard seating and lots of plastic to make it heavy.

Well, as an owner of a 2019 GSXS1000, I like the review. I love my bike, even though I think the suspension sucks. The Wilbers 641 helps a little, although many on the GSXS forum think it helps a LOT. Also, the seat gets tiresome after 1/2 hour. A Russell daylong fixed that. Woolich is the bomb to be able to flash it and get rid of the fuel decel cutoff to mostly fix the snatchy throttle. M4 4-2-1 exhaust helps get rid of the midrange dip around 5400 RPM, and has the 18mm bung for a wideband O2 sensor to autotune with Woolich. Spot on with the midrange torque not needing to wind the engine to have fun. Getting 41 MPG commuting in the states with 87 octane (given by R+M/2, I think the equivalent of your 95 RON).

Nice review. I really like this bike. Got to be one of the best value bikes out there at the moment. The specs don't really grab you but as an affordable all round package, it's fantastic imo. I think over time people will come to appreciate it much more than they do currently, especially when Suzuki inevitably start discounting them to 10k which is middleweight money!

Just seen this video,,i bought one 5 months ago,its brilliant. Just been round spain on mine,choose to take over a gs1250,wondering if i took right bike. Yes is answer, round the mountain rds 3rd gear done everything . Its only downfall is luggage capacity or lack of. Commuting daily 30 miles its a joy,actually good on fuel untill you get it reving up over 7000 revs. Midrange power is spot on as well.A small fairing would be great over 70mph. Great vid and does the bike some justice which it deserves. A mode is great ,lot more power especially higher up the rev range. B mode is also enough for most. Intake sound is a complete joy to listen to,ive done away with the end can and sounds much deeper. Thanks for posting up the vid.

Enjoyed the review Teapot, thanks. I'm in the market for a bigger bike and the GSX S1000 is on my list. The 750 too for a bargain deal. Here's the thing. Where I live down under in NZ the following range of bikes are only 500 pounds apart from cheapest to most expensive. In price order; MT09SP, Z900, Street Triple R and GSX S1000. So really nothing in it at all. Which would you park in your garage for the foreseeable future? Thanks again.

The Street Triple and GSX-S would be my preferred two there, the Triumph probably has more character but a smaller engine - but it’s by no means an underpowered bike. Think I’d go with the Speedy if you’re a normal sized person, but if you’re on the larger side maybe the Suzuki will give you a bit more comfort. Both great rising bikes 👍

Just subbed after watching this vid. I've got the baby 125 and was hoping Suzuki would give the same updates to the 750 as the 1k might be too big a jump

I've just bought a 'new' 2021 Suzuki SV650 for a bargain price to replace my 2021 Yamaha Tenere 700. I've been very impressed by the Suzuki SV650; it maybe a basic bike, but what a bike! Cheap, fast motorcycling, accompanied by a fantastic soundtrack, what's not to like!

Absolutely, the SV is a great bike 👍

@@teapotone It certainly is! If anyone's after a cheap urban commuter, with more than enough power for the motorway, then the Suzuki SV650 should be on their list. It may have come out in 1999, but I think that's one of its strengths; it's very reliable. The bike is also very quick, 0-60 in 3.39s, and is excellent for filtering because it's so narrow, the Tenere can be a bit scary sometimes! The only downside is the thin stock seat, but the bike is very easy to work on and is highly customisable. I'm 6' 2", so I might look a bigger bike in the future. I quite like the new Suzuki GSX-S1000GT and I even had a good look at the Kawasaki Z900RS when I was buying the SV650. It looked like a cracking bike, and it looked absolutely gorgeous in the Candytone Blue with the gold stripe colourway. But, the way petrol prices are at the moment I'll be keeping the SV650 for awhile, I'm very happy with it, and it does +68mpg! 😁

If you haven't ridden the new cb1000r you need to. Another awesome sport naked. The Honda not only has the performance it is a beatiful bike also. I own the 2021 Black Edition. Lovin it.. Proper weapon in the mountains but still easy and fun to ride on my commute.

great review - don't you worry about animals coming out of hedges though, i had that once. perhaps it looks faster on the video. can you say what the bike was before this one please, the price of this one is just a bit too rich. came out in 2015, what was the predecessor please?
