    The simple fact that Suzuki allows this kind of exposure and transparency with their products and top level riders is completely mindblowing. Thank you Mr. Suzuki!!!!

      That's why i love suzuki and huge respect for kawasaki ; both are making bikes as art not just product, sorry for bad english.

      I've owned 5 GSX-Rs over the years, and every single one of them was absolutely booletproof.

      @greenboys3900 4 года назад

      Charles Szasz suzuki only bad in bodystyle while kawasaki in maintenance, honda is the greatest before 2004 and yamaha before 2009; I don't know about usa nor europe market but in asia that's the fact.

      @greenboys3900 4 года назад +2

      Archangel i still own each one from four japan big brands bike, i just want smiles per litre no matter what brands is it; yamaha and honda sacrifice their quality for better margin, that's why i salute suzuki and kawasaki for keep being real to their customers 🙂

      When was it 1982 or 1983 when these bikes hit the showroom floor ..and the same year my boss with Honda got the franchise with Suzuki ..and all of a sudden Hondas were ever boring ..but in 2012 an ebr 1190rs vs a gsxr 1000 with two of the fastest riders on the track at holmstead florid and the Suzuki is slaughtered by a Eric beull racing V twin the Millennial said was a pile of junk but in reality motored the crap out of a Suzuki cuttin the suzuk. Offf in the corners out braking the Suzuki making the Suzuki look pathetic plea helpless.the year buell only had one model fit all if you wanted a racer you took the lights off the street legal one cuz that's all there was ..and Eric's street bike a v twin murdered a bad boy gsxr 1000

    Good video, as usual! Just a slight correction: between 00:35 - 1:16 and then 7:11 - 8:08 you talk about each bike's weight: ~200kg for the road-legal version, 175kg for the Superstock and 167kg for the Superbike. While those figures are technically correct, you're mixing curb weights and dry weights, which is confusing and not fair to the road bike. The ~200kg figure for the road-legal version is its curb weight, while the 175kg and 167kg are dry weight figures. The *curb weights* of all three are ~200kg (202kg, actually), ~192kg and ~185kg - which means there's a 10kg difference between the Superstock and the road-legal version and 17kg between the Superbike and the road legal version.

      @ricardolourizela5961 4 года назад +6

      Exactly! That drove me nuts. He himself pointed out the difference bewteen dry and curb weight on one of his other videos where he was comparing road bikes with SBKs, but here he's all over the place with his figures...

    • @LibertyDIY
      @LibertyDIY 4 года назад +3

      Curb weight, all fluids and full gas tank
      GSXR1000 street legal 445lbs
      GSXR1000 Superstock 423lbs
      GSXR1000 BSB 408lbs
      I have a highly modified but street legal CBR1000RR that is 379 lbs with a full tank (ride at 359 lbs with 1.2 gallon) so I feel they should allow much lower weight limits to be more realistic. Even my mostly stock CBR1000RR street legal bike is 415 lbs with a full tank (395 with 1.2 gallon in it) for a total cost of about $5700 so its not an issue of cost.
      Awesome video thank you!

  • @marcustaylor670
    @marcustaylor670 4 года назад

    Best comparison test I've ever seen. I've followed you since you joined Tech 3 in Moto GP, I always said your riding was consistent in that you would always get a result based on how good the bike actually was. Some riders can ride the wheels off one machine and make it do more than it should and then be hopeless on something else that isn't anywhere near as bad as it appears. Lorenzo, Marco Melandri and Toni Elias spring to mind.
    Your Rossi's and Marquez's have the bikes built around their styles so they are not the great test riders in terms of comparing machines back to back. I see Dovi in the same way as you, not likely to ever be a moto gp champion but he is a good yard stick for how good a bike actually is.

  • @cecilwilson5442
    @cecilwilson5442 4 года назад +1

    Gives mere mortals and idea in simple terms the difference between the three types of configuration of the one bike which has to be similar with any other manufacturer's bike,, and from someone who is a world class rider,, sort of thing that before going to get after market parts you can see the affect before you change your bike, very rewarding viewing thanks for your help in making the video from Northern Ireland greatly appreciated ☘️☘️☘️👍👍👍

    Just discovered your channel, I really enjoyed your explanations, backed up by your professional experience.
    As a young rider I was always fascinated by power to weight ratio, with 1.5lb/HP being the ultimate goal for both four wheels or two wheels. The superbike is very close at 1.597lb/HP. The super stock bike is probably the ultimate dream bike of the majority of street sport bike enthusiasts. The same manageable power without the excess weight, better feel, braking and less fading of the suspension, tires and brakes.

So we can have a good comparison for our budget level
