What could be better than getting even more power and torque in an already powerful naked bike! The predecessor, the R 1200 R, with its 125 hp and Newton metres of torque, could already be ridden very sportily, but the enlarged R 1250 R, now with 136 hp and a massive 143 Newton metres, pushes the boxer power to its current peak. The special thing about the R 1250 R, as with its predecessor, is that thanks to the extensive range of accessories it can also convince on tours. The new engine with ShiftCam valve control is not only more powerful but also more refined. The chassis and brakes are also convincing, and the seating position is pleasantly upright, allowing a wide range of riding styles, from sporty push-off to long-distance touring.

The "small" GSX-S950 is damn close to the GSX-S1000, which is why it seems as if the proud surcharge for the 1000 will have to be properly justified. However, anyone who wants it to be as sporty as on the GSX-S1000 will already fail due to the somewhat too soft, non-adjustable suspension. However, this more comfortable design of the 950 fits the character of the engine very well. With (only) 95 hp, the engine, which is identical to the GSX-S1000, is designed for torque from below and in the middle; there is little point in stubbornly wriggling out. So if you are looking for a comparatively comfortable naked bike that is suitable for A2 and that can hardly be distinguished visually from the top model, you can save a lot of money!
