Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2021

Suzuki's evolution of the GSX-S1000 is a complete success. Although it is an old acquaintance in terms of its basic design, with the 2021 update to Euro5, as well as numerous revisions, the Japanese have created a wonderfully rounded package in the power naked segment. The engine, throttle response and quickshifter work flawlessly, and the suspension and brake components are tuned for sporty comfort. A bike with which you don't have to hide - unless someone wants to examine the display...
