Suzuki GSX-R 750 2009

The GSX-R 750 is the golden mean in many respects. It offers a level of power that is not overwhelming on the road but is also a lot of fun. On the one hand, it is relatively inexpensive, but on the other, it is still fast enough. The GSX-R 750 is a great supersport machine. If you don't value superlatives and just want a good bike, go for the GSX-R 750 and use the money you save to treat yourself to race training sessions on the Nordschleife....
