2021 Suzuki GSX-S 1000 | First Ride Review
Suzuki were kind enough to let me loose on their revised GSX-S1000 for a few weeks. But is this just a face lift and some fancy headlights or is there a cracking litre road bike underneath? Join me for this first ride review as I try to find out!

Suzuki bikes are the most underrated, especially this one and the 750. They aren’t the flashiest, or the best, but they tick all the boxes for a daily rider. Even the gixxer is such a comfortable kick a** sport bike.

@lawsheagaming3021 2 года назад

Agreed started out on a gixxer 250r and it was the perfect bike to learn on for me

@deathtomorons9388 2 года назад

If you think they are underrated then you are wrong. They sell more bikes than some European manufacturers like Ducati and BMW combined and obviously last longer than them. You should say Suzuki aren't much discussed amongst the online bike racers lol. The real bikers knows it's values.

@brandonjoseph3422 2 года назад

@@deathtomorons9388 spot on. I didn’t know the sales numbers, so thanks for enlightening me on that. Love Suzuki bikes so much that I’m glad that they sell more than the “status” bikes. As a gixxer owner I’m always considered a threat to life😂

@deathtomorons9388 2 года назад

@@brandonjoseph3422 I also own a 2018 gixxer R1000. It's a great bike running till date without any problem. Suzuki also have a very rich MotoGp record. It's the 4th most winning manufacturer while ducati is only at 5th. Suzuki especially the Gixxers and the Hayabusa have a high prestige in the biker community. Don't forget that Suzuki was the first to revolutionize the world of naked bikes with the Suzuki Katana and the Legendary SV650X.

@worldtraveler8613 2 года назад

Suzuki bikes are very underrated. For instance the r6 is seen as such a track weapon. Thats all you hear about it. Track weapon. Track weapon. My gsxr 600 makes the same power at a lighter weight, but no one calls it a track weapon. Smh

My local dealer has new 2024 GSX-S1000's $2,600 off for just under $9,000 before fees and taxes. Seems like an excellent deal as far as performance/cost ratio. But I know as soon as I plunk down the money, Suzuki will come out with a newer version with an upgraded TFT screen.

@_audacerider3838 2 года назад

Simple anwser and forbtye money definitely yes! It will do the weekly commute and the weekend blasting with mates!! Obviously if you want more bhp then you will need to pay more for that! But I recon an average rider on a public road this will be as quick down the favourite road as bikes costing twice as much! Cause as usial the limiting factor is the rider capabilities and the resistance to the "scar yourself silly" moments. Not the bikes capabilities or grip from the tyres. On a track it probably will be a different story but as well a slow rider will be slow on a Streetfighter V4S as well as this! Good review!

@stevescourou8006 2 года назад

As a 2020 GSXS 750 owner, whilst the bikes are nice and priced competitively I've just started to see why the price is so low - build quality. I've got issues with wheel paint coming off whilst I'm polishing them by hand. I've got bubbling appearing and various external parts showing signs of excessive wear. As a Honda owner of old, never had this problem. Really annoyed.

@darksector82 2 года назад

I own a 2018 GSXS 1000 and never encountered your issue, it could be the polishing products you're using isn't suitable for your application. The bubbling thing could be due to the water you're using to clean your motorcycle or could be the soap, not really sure which exactly. Try new cleaning products and check if the water is suitable to clean your motorcycle.

After one year and 8000 km I have never tried the A mode😂 Bike is awesome, Dans review is spot on! Display is often critizised, but you can always read speed, gear and rpm😅 Engine, gearbox and suspension are fantastic for the road. Can recommend it also for inexperienced riders or even talented new riders. It is so much fun even in C Mode and with traction control fully on. But with so much performance you should know what you are doing. Accelerates from 100 to 200 kmh in 5,4 sec.😊

@Alex-ro7vh Год назад

I've heard that the spongy brakes and the single shock absorber are criticized, can you tell me more?

@TheTuschi Год назад

@@Alex-ro7vh If you want brutal inital bite from brakes, then the GSX-S cant deliver. But I am not a racer and dont like to brake hard before the corners, so no complaints here. I like the brakes and the brake feel. I can easily trail brake into corners. The rear shock is pretty good for the road, comfort is just right and in fast corners it is absolutely stable even on less than perfect roads, so no pumping or anything.

@sidineiperondi6351 Год назад

Problems with the bike? Recommend it?

@Bl4ckOnTube Год назад

@@TheTuschi I guess it would be enough to upgrade brake hoses to braided ones if you wanted more bite in the first part of the braking? I've heard Suzuki technicians decided to stick to classic ones to make breaking more progressive / modular

@TheTuschi Год назад

@@sidineiperondi6351 No problems after 11.500 km. It is a pretty awesome naked bike for the road. You can also do a bit of touring. I added a luggage system from Hepco Becker and a Puig windscreen. Comfort is not bad at all, longest ride was 5,5 hours and 330 km. But even now it still is much more a sports bike than a tourer.

@ragerider6283 2 года назад

Nice review. Too many people get caught up in spec sheets instead of actually riding a bike! I really like it as do most reviewers seemingly. It's an underrated relative bargain & perfect for the road. I like the looks too but not that colour. The dash is pretty average & a bit busy but I'm not overly fussed with TFTs so being an LCD isn't a deal breaker for me personally. Supposedly if you turn it up to max brightness it's not too bad.

@longdog67 2 года назад

All the reviews have been really good. However, since those first ride reviews, have you noticed how not one has mentioned it since in a group test. It's now once again completely off the radar.

@ragerider6283 2 года назад

@@longdog67 Yep totally agree. Essentially because it's not premium with at least 175bhp, it doesn't exist. There are potentially 2 types of group tests, one that looks at performance to determine the outright best bike & the other is a real world test that takes price in to account. When was the last time you saw the latter? The GSXS will never appear in a performance group test but could potentially win the real world one. Possibly one of the best value bikes on the market at the moment in terms of what you get for your money. On price it's competing with the KTM Duke 890R & Triumph Street Triple RS & has way more bang for your buck. However most people will completely ignore it to their detriment.

@CHRIS_CREATIONS 2 года назад

Also in comparison the Aprilia Tuono is Lets be Honest a De Faired Sports Bike not a Super Naked, The KTM DUKE 1290 is just a Out of Control Animal over Tuned & the MT-10 is nice full of Tech But is not a very good Riding Position & has a Front Wheel made of Helium lol Were as the GSX-S1000 is a True Definition of a Super Naked, Smooth-Loads of Power, Stop and Corners like a Boss and the BEST THING - - - - - the S1000 is approx. $4-$6K -Thousands Cheaper than all the others. SO in my Mind its the Clear Winner because you have loads of Cash / Thousands left for Upgrades and Addons and to make it look and Ride even Better. And I heard a Rumour there Going to Introduce the Vinyl Package and Carbon accessories pack options late 2022 just like they have for the GSX S750 Options.

Guys, come on. Of course you need to look at the dash, but it's more about looking at the road. It's a bike that you'll ride "feeling" the bike and the road. I assume that I don't keep looking at the dash. So, of course it would be better to have a TFT, but keep in mind this: cost x benefit. Maybe the best in this category.

Do you prefer this to the CB1000R? More low-down shove than one. I'd like the Suzuki if I had need for a litre bike, but the roads in Thailand don't require so much power. I used to have B-King in Europe. A bit too heavy at 265 kg, though. The 1000 is pretty light, relatively speaking. These litre-plus Suzuki inline fours can often get to over 80,000 miles without needing a valve shim. Fantastic old-school engines.

Tough choice between the two. The CB is a very pretty bike but for comfort I'd go with the Suzuki. 👍

To those riders who are on the fence about how good the Suzuki bikes are!!! Look up the comparison between 2005 GSXR ( the very same engine this bike poses ) and Ducati Panigale 2020 V4 S. You'll laugh your a... off and then you'll save a tone of money by stepping out of the vanity race.

@@Englishbikerdan To be honest though, as a current owner of GSX S750, I am not sure if it is worth upgrading to S1000 especially my ride is mostly in the city with occasional weekend tour. As much I am happy with my S750, Ninja 400 has been the best 'bang for the buck'' bike for my city ride with weekend tour among 7 bikes I tried in the past 4 yrs or so. My dilemma is.. that.. will S1000 be so much better than my current S750 at cruising at 50 - 75 mph ( 80 - 120 kmh) ?

@korazon3spinado Год назад

Interesting after riding the gsxs750 and 1000 and owning the cbr650 you decided on the SV 650. I guess high horsepower is not that important to you. I think I might be the same. Currently I ride an older gs500f but I'm thinking of upgrading.

@RRRRefuelRideRace 2 года назад

Nicely done review. Well explained and showed. I am more interested in the GT version, but the engine is the same. Keep going. :)

@Englishbikerdan 2 года назад

Yeah the GT is good too and a bit more protection from the elements. Cheers! 👍

I do like Suzuki products but there's one glaring issue it's a hoodlum design Street fighter looking bike I think they should have used a big twin or an inline three cylinder in my opinion the four cylinder is just too uninspiring

@chronophobic 2 года назад

Very conservative and overly reuse technology, anything that worth buying brand new from Suzuki is their GSX-R 1000RR, other than that, better buy an used one to save another massive quid. Great video as always

@Englishbikerdan 2 года назад

Used bikes are silly expensive at the moment though. Not tried the GSXR, not really my thing!

Sir, Is this your favorite between the Z900, Honda CB1000r or CB65R or the Ducati Monster. I can only have one and riding 30 years just want one for weekend rides etc. Please give me your choice between those and this Suzuki Thanks

@Englishbikerdan 2 года назад

I'd probably choose this! Great value 1000cc bike!

@alanpark7839 2 года назад

Nice review but I wish Dan would get his facts right. The new gsxs makes LESS peak torque (but more lower down the revs) and MORE power than the previous models not less! The engine is from the K5 to K8 gsxr 1000 and not the 750.

@Englishbikerdan 2 года назад

That's the downside of trying to remember all of the bike stats that I memorised while out riding and getting lost. It's definitely easier to sit at a desk and look them up. The K5 comment was meant as, have they gone the same route as the S750 and used the K5 engine (as in, K5 1000 gixxer for this particular bike). Which is a yes as I now know. I do this for fun and in my spare time, I'm not a professional rider or journalist, so I get things wrong on occasion. Worse things happen at sea.

Back door action?

@ivanbodurov 2 года назад

There is no protection from the wind. At high speeds on a long journey is unbearable. The previous model has the option to add protective windshield. In this model there is no such option. This is a very big drawback for me. I stay on the GSX-1000 2019.

@Englishbikerdan 2 года назад

Maybe the GT version for you?
