Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 RR 2024

BMW S 1000 RR 2024

For me, the most noticeable of all the innovations were the electronics and the steering geometry. Thanks to the additional information of the new steering angle sensor and the revised riding aids, the new S1000RR now has an electronic package with which you can not only ride safely, but also quickly, which will especially please the faster faction. But with a few additional features such as Slide Control, the average rider also has the opportunity to try out the riding style of the pros without risk, in order to cut a good figure in riding photos. And apart from that, it's also fun. The new steering geometry brings a little more calmness to the front and improves feedback, which is an invaluable advantage, especially at the limits. So the next round in the hunt for the best superbike is reopened.

Very good electronics or control systems

Good feedback

Good stability

The Suzuki GSX-8R takes the popular and excellent recipe of the 8S and packs it into a high-quality package in the road sports class. With its lively riding performance, it can score points on country roads without being too extreme for everyday use. Although the price is higher than its naked bike sister, those who want a sportier bike should go for the GSX-8R.

powerful engine with powerful centre

crisp quickshifter

sporty but not uncomfortable riding position

good feel for the front wheel
