Why did I get the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT?
Let me tell you why I got the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT.
The sport touring category isn't exactly crowded these days. The GSX-S100GT is one of the most affordable new sport tourers available. It is more sport than tourer, with a 999 cc high revving inline 4 cylinder engine. This 500 pound bike is equally capable of mildly cruising around town, or eye-watering acceleration and speeds when opened up.

Watch this before spending your hard-earned money on an expensive steering stabilizer for the Ryker! One of the most common complaints about the Can-Am Ryker is the instability of the steering on uneven roads. There are some snake oil or placebo cures out there, so in this video I find out the truth to the question: Is the steering stabilizer worth it? I also get temporarily distracted from the...

    I had to give up on two wheelers due to the amputation of my right leg above the knee, the loss of feeling, muscle power and muscle memory and my balance wasn't anywhere as good as it once was. The Ryker offers me everything I could want on two wheels, but with the safety of an extra wheel. Many will say it's a million miles away from being like a two wheeler, but if you look at it with the point of view that you are doing what you used to do, but in a different way, it still puts a smile on your face.

    I bought a used 2016 heritage in mint condition with only 9,500 miles on it for 11k bucks. WAY cheaper than a new 2024 at 26k bucks! But money wasn’t an issue. I like the old heritage model better than the new ones. I like the classic vintage looks. Mine is teal and white like the 1950s. Anyhow I absolute love it !! My traveling buddy rides a Vulcan S. We can’t make many miles bec he’s always so sore. My heritage is like a Cadillac. I can lean back and throw feet up on crash bars and ride all day long. Oh and the buddy bet me 50 bucks he could outrun the heritage since it’s a slow harley. I won but didn’t take his money 😂. He’s been very humble lately 😂.

      Prices on the twin cam bikes have really tanked. Great for buyers. That low end torque can get the Harley moving pretty quick up to a certain speed. Mine came with an aftermarket seat which is like you said, a Cadillac ride. I’m curious does your Heritage have an aftermarket seat?

But havent quite felt the need for one yet. I took a 4 day trip to smokey mountians last weekend on it and done very well. I used my travel bag as a backreset. I could lean back and remain comfy for quite awhile. About 80 to 100 miles im ready to get off a few mins. 10 min break and im ready to roll again. But again i do have my eye on the saddleman explorer " road sofa" which has the pillow top look and a driver backrest on my radar. Ill prob take another long trip again before i decide. im wanting to ride out to colorado before summer ends. Ive never seen the rockies before. I never was one to care much about how fast a harley is. I like to cruise and relax. But yea that 103 high output will definitly get it moving pretty quick when I need it to! But i feel absolutely no need to pursue anything to make it faster or more powerful. Its got more than plenty already. ls

    I'd say you're wrong about new sway bar end links not making any difference, judging by my personal experience. When I replaced mine, it increased the speeds I was comfortable with on my local rough roads by at least 5 mph. I don't think the problem was the material the OEM ones were made of, though. The swivels at each end were so stiff I had to place an end link in a vice and stick a long screwdriver through them, to move them. I could move the swivels on the new ones with the end of my little finger.... Later, changing out the sway bar added another 5 to 10 mph to my comfort zone. And I just received my steering stabilizer, so we'll see what that does....

    When I bought my GT (black like yours) last year, both the regular and 'touring' screen were included. The touring screen is quite good. Also, I see you have the shift lights enabled. I would suggest raising the thresholds on them so you aren't lighting up at 4500 RPM. The kind of hidden, but excellent feature (in my mind) is having the display switch automatically between night and day modes by using a photosensor in the dash.
