Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2016

Many victorious years in international motorbike racing have made the GSX-R1000 superbike a legend - and a somewhat grey model. Real innovations or even revolutions are a long time ago, and the last updates were limited to visual upgrades, such as the MotoGP Replica paint scheme. It may look fresh and snappy, but in the segment of racers that have now advanced to technologically advanced and correspondingly expensive hyper-sports bikes, the GSX-R now looks like a slightly greying prototype. It still rides well, fast and harmoniously, you can just tell it's mature - and that's meant in a positive way. Nevertheless, we are already waiting for the next generation.

The ZX-10R Ninja has a certain majesty, at the first rollout it seems very stable, you have to force it into the radius a little. After a few laps, however, this effect is transformed into an incredible precision that allows a pinpoint line. The engine has now really become noticeably stronger and makes the Kawa an enormously good overall package that can please not only die-hard Kawasaki fans. The traction control on the Kawa is particularly positive and regulates very sensitively. You can even adjust the engine brake - so it certainly doesn't lack for electronic features. The ZX-10R is the only superbike that is already Euro4-compliant in 2016!

great chassis geometry

high-quality chassis components

very good brakes

lots of electronics on board

Cockpit not quite optimal readable
