Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Z1000SX 2014

Kawasaki Z1000SX 2014

The Z 1000 SX is a great middle ground, indeed the optimal intersection between sport and touring motorbike. There are not many bikes that manage this so well.

Confident, powerful engine

fairing suitable for touring

sporty layout

good traction control

surprisingly versatile

well-integrated pannier system.

Unconventional handling in tight corners

windshield could be higher.

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2009

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2009

The GSX-R 1000 remains something for the experienced rider, despite its precise and balanced rideability and controllable power delivery. Suzuki knows that a thousand must remain a thousand and strictly adheres to this. Let's hope that they can continue to do so for a long time.

Improved geometry

compact engine design

relaxed seating position

system with multiple height adjustments

anti-hopping clutch.

Accessibility of compression adjustment suboptimal

weak in the lower rev range

not for beginners
