Suzuki GSX-S1000 2024

The new GSX-S1000 is an old acquaintance in terms of basic design - the engine and chassis are still from the predecessor. However, the machine has been modernised in many areas and presents itself at an extremely high level, especially visually. Although the engine cannot compete in the league of the super-potent Hyper Nakeds, it functions very harmoniously and powerfully enough. The conventional chassis also strikes a successful compromise between sportiness and comfort. The hammer arguments are definitely the successful design, the standard quickshifter with blipper and, last but not least, the comparatively low price.

Yamaha's new automated manual transmission in the MT-09 offers an interesting alternative to manual shifting. In "AT" mode, automated clutching makes riding easier, especially in city traffic, while "MT" mode preserves riding pleasure and sportiness. The neutral gear is now in first position, followed by gears 1 to 6, which enables smoother gear changes. Although the Y-AMT technology requires some familiarisation and there are limitations, such as the lack of "sliding" by pulling the clutch, yet the driving experience remains dynamic.
