Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-S1000F 2016

Suzuki GSX-S1000F 2016

Suzuki has chosen a somewhat wooden name for the GSX-S 1000 F, but otherwise the ingredients have been finely put together. The handlebars and the bike's stance are strongly reminiscent of a naked bike. The chassis as well as the engine will delight sports bike fans. A truly worthy sports tourer.

Stable chassis allows high cornering speed

rev-happy and sporty engine

pleasant wide handlebars provide a direct driving feel

low weight for this league

Engine response could be better

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2015

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2015

Some might be surprised that after waiting so long, Suzuki did not launch the ultimate, uncompromising power naked bike. Instead, the Suzuki GSX-S 1000 with its 149 hp seems almost too well-behaved. But once you ride it on the race track, you quickly realise that the engine is far more powerful in real life and that the rest of the performance of the chassis and braking system is also impressive. In return, it also offers a large portion of everyday and practical suitability - not bad ingredients when you have to cover everything from everyday to race track with a single bike.

Powerful engine

good braking control

stable and sensitive chassis

comfortable seating position

relatively low price.

Front end looks too good

toxic throttle response in the lower rev range
