Great pilot of ever, the legend of 500 world championship
Fantastic pilot!! Great champion!!!
Master, you've returned to us!!
Suzuki forever!
YYYYEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!! I'm hoping it pisses on everything, just so shuts up all these smugg haters
The hero of suzuki,,,kevin.& kenny. Robert jr,
I think that exhaust is small need to be BIGGER
Blame Euro 4 emissions laws for that.
Str33tfalcon euro 4 is making bikes going down hill to a point
+Str33tfalcon Noooooo. It was serious, obviously. It needs to be at least the size of the bike or maybe twice as large. XD
just think about it wehn you buy this and remove this exhaust with a forklift then the bike will get 200lbs off and you suddenly have a fucking turbo bike =)
Or you could do like the other bikes, put a huge tumor beneath the bike and bolt on a small pipe out the side of it. Trouble with that, requires you to replace the entire system if you want any performance and weight loss benefits. This? Take the canister off and the cat goes away.
Welcome to the new emissions standards.
I'm amazed how much this bike wants to take the turns. Really really fast. And effortless.
I've watched Kevin from his early SB days with the three rides on a Yosh. GS 700ES in the Calif.races only Yoshimura did that year, I believe he won all three of them ! And even remember him on that FJ600 in 1984 during Endurance racing !! He was my favorite rider, to bad in his early days he didn't know how to relax and not have to go Balls out all the time, he crashed leading many times and it cost him the 1987' SB Championship and the 1989' 500 GP won also. I just can't believe how aged he looks !!! I'm 60 now and he looks much older than me Lol.
beautiful bike my dream .. good luck ... go ahead..
Miss you Sir.. 🤩
I just can not wait until I get my newest ride. When the time comes, I must say it will be hard to decided exactly which bike I would love to get. Now a days, it seems that the Japanese bikes are just as expensive as the italian bikes. So I guess it comes down to what you really want in your ride. Just great to always see new innovations and how different bike companies just keep on pushing the bar higher and higher. Definitely a great time to own any newer bike. Technology, and all that innovation available to the common person. Just have to hope we do not kill ourselves, or out do our skill set. Afterall it is great to have a nice ride, but also a nice life to go with it. Keep it coming!!
The BadAss rider with the ((34)) two stroke suzuki
you was my hero.!!!!
Such a difference between the older way of riding and the new riding style on the superbike. I thought he'll wipe his front end off with that kind of body positioning on the lean angles. But hey, he's a World champ afterall; anything that makes you go faster is good.
He's not trying that hard ... it's just a promo vid. Watch his old races, he used to hang off way more.
That's a comfy way to lean, when you're not pushing hard. I do the same, lol.
Yes....the king of sportbike...lampu depannyapun khas seri gsx....bahkan tetap konsisten di gsx r-s150
Anyone who has seen Kevin race will know he'd sooner crash than come second in any race. He would have won more championships if he ever took it easy now and then. He is a do or die guy. Yes we know he's a Suzi guy, and you've got to admit the spiel is well spoken. He has the meanest race face ever. The guy's a deadset legend.
Winning moto America and Australia super bike and super sport and it just came out hasn't been up graded since 2003 the engine
Great info-mercial
The most technologically advanced vehicle Kevin's ever ridden. Well Kev, you've obviously not slung your leg over a bike for oooo a decade? Come on Suzuki stop phoning your marketing in.
Bzzzzzzt. Wrong. He co- rode in the 2013 Suzuka 8 hour race to a 3rd place finish. www.crash.net/motogp/news/194004/1/schwantz-rolls-back-the-years-with-suzuka-podium.html
He runs a successful road racing race school and rides in selected off road endurance events from time to time.
you may have missed the sarcasm
Yeah, who wouldn't have missed your attempt at sarcasm? What was your point? I think your last response is an attempt to rationalise your foolish comment on Kevin's ability to be familiar with and use current motorcycle technology. He runs a racing school which includes the latest production motorcycles and is contracted to Suzuki. I'm sure he has ridden every production superbike from all the manufacturers his students bring to his classes. He acts as a technical consultant and tester for Suzuki's production superbikes. He would also be very familiar with the data loggers and technology used by racing teams including tyre development and suspension tuning.
droceretik read and interpret the point. the bike is behind the market place, most bikes have had ABS, TC and the like for a good 5yrz. Suzuki are massively behind. my comment was in relation to the poorly scripted promo guff that one of the few standing spokespersons for suzuki is dumped with. people on RUclips are so bloody hostile. get off your soap box
First you tried to put shit on Kevin Schwantz by implying he hasn't ridden for ten years, that Suzuki is behind in technological development and that Suzuki shouldn't run promotional videos. I pointed out that he has "slung a leg over" bikes in the last ten years and not only that, co-rode to third place in the Suzuka 8 hour plus he runs a race riding school. You were wrong in 3 out of 3 points. Then you back-peddle by claiming it was a sarcastic comment. Stop trying to pretend you are funny and clever.
Kevin, the one and only !
Sorry for my english because i'm french...
I have already had 3 SUZUKI motorcycles (SV 650.. GSR 750.. and now GSX-S 1000
I dream about this new GSX-R 1000 !! She is so beautiful !!!
but I don't understand how, at this level of range, you can continue to offer flashers as ugly as that.. The other manufacturers are doing better on this in 2017.. :(
the flasher u mean the change lane signals (indicators)?
yes ! they are so basic !!!
Why they dont put the LED ones at least?
they are for the American bike's
dave ninga is right ,this flashers are for us market , for europe it's LED much prettyer
Will be interesting to see how this model goes at the 2017 IoM TT. I hope Suzuki does well.
Michael Dunlop won with it in the Senior TT.
One thing I can't argue is Suzuki's seating position. I remeber when I had my K2 GSXR750 used to be glued onto the saddle without any tank pads. Now on my S1000RR Im considering buying those nasty tank pads just so that I don't slide off my saddle at lean.
riding position is so upright compared to modern riders.
All crossed up as well. Amazing that he is such a good rider.
There is always more than one way skin a cat. Riding a motorcycle is no different
Sat on it at the Dallas IMS, and wow it's really tiny. It really feel, and look smaller than the GSX-R 600 that was right next to it.
Nice... i want one, but I don't believe "it changes direction like a 250" mr schwantz.
so how well does it wheelie?
Stunning bike,,,,
Do you use the clutch by switching gears
He was , is my Idol, my Suzuki hero. I hope i can Meet him one day in Germany on a motorcycle event . I want to have a helmet in Kevin Schwantz Design . would be a Dream.
My idol , kevin schwantz ...
Kevin eres un orgullo y un gran ejemplo de ser humano con un talento que nadie ha vuelto a tener te pongo por encima de valentino rossi de marc marquez te pongo por encima de alex criville y a la altura de waine rainey y mick doohan y michael dunlop y guy martin ...a los pilotos de ahora le faltan huevos y a vosotros os sobraban huevos hazme feliz y corre en el TT isle of man😊🤗
Kevin is a great an congenial sportsman !
New bike...Ram Air!! my girlfriends old Suzuki GT185 from the 70`s had that some things ain`t changed then....well just a little, looks great......
and an nice big emission exhaust. don't forget
If Suzi price it right in Malaysia, this is the superbike that i would love to have in my garage.
awesome
Rins does cornering similar to you, Sir.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed about the price for the new bike, I hope it undercuts the others.
AWESOME AMAZING FANTASTIC MAGIC I RIDE ALL MY LIFE SUZUKI ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Legend
Also comes equipped with a floatation device.
Changed everything but took the indicators back to 90's.. -.-
Dilip M which is very sad...their design team is AWFUL
Dilip M Is it ilegal to take them off?
US regulations are to be blamed.
Euro version has tiny indicators like BMW S1000RR
must be something specil about this new design..suzuki always ahead on race tech..love the new gsxr1000😗
Good job, Suzuki, on still putting sub par with technologies the competition already was better at 3 years ago.
Oh, and that's why it won the 2017 Isle of Man Senior race ahead of BMW, Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki? Good job Suzuki and good job Michael Dunlop.
Nice infomertial
i love turn signal it look nice
to all the guyz hating on kevin here, i dont think its him riding the bike in the video.
it is. You can see through the visor it is him
Crazy how crossed up his body position is
Turtle 1000 I'd bet a steak dinner even at his age he's quicker than you on any track!
I'll pay you a can o beer if you can beat him on 500cc two stroke in Assen or Donington
It was the riding style of that era,they were the fastest rider's with the fastest gp bikes of that time. Fascinating to see how riding style's have changed since the 500cc days but these old style legend's are not going to change their riding style's just for you lol.
Schwantz crashed out on the then new carbon fibre wheel at 280mph
Hats off to the legend Schwantz
that exhaust 😂
今年の鈴鹿8耐出てくれますよね？
Good old PR machine.
Hyosung GTR?
Why oh why did they go back to the old style indicators
Legend suzuki
He's only 3 years older than me but he looks old enough to be my father.
52 years old in this video???
gsxr for me It is been and still is the perfect bike today every body want hp under there bottom but we know that hp it's not for hour street and I love to go fast .but ...the real power is the one we see in wsbk were the industry spend the money .....the rest is just talk .....I want hp but if is possible have fun......w gsxr
Interesting he still has the old riding position
Miss u Mr Perfect.
As much Suzuki is interested in hearing a vet racing champion, I'm not. I'd like to know how it functions when I ride it.
What i love about honda (and now yamaha) they have company financing, they finance their own bikes now, if the bank doesnt want to(because they see it as recreation vehicle) Too bad kawis and suzuki doesnt
and it still looks the same as it did in o4
Wanting !!
I... Don't .... Know.... who wrote that script
that blinkers are for old man to. demn.. had to be in proportion with the exhaust?
those orange blinkers must be for American models cause we get smaller clear lens on ours.
My only concern is the cheesy chassis, compared to any other 1000cc class bike it looks like it's half the thickness and strength of other bikes, I've seen comments on Suzuki competitiveness in WSBK or MOTO America and Suzuki has been doing better but maybe with this new package they can get more podiums this year, especially in WSBK racing where Kawasaki has dominated for several years now, even Ducati now is a top flight bike to throw into the mix, only time will tell!
2017 Isle of man Senior. Win.
Stayed at the top of its class for the last 30 years. A few seconds later says it back at the top of the class. 4.12
Who cares how it compares to a 2016 GSXR. I want to know how it compares to a 2016 BMW S1000RR thats the real damn comparison.
There is none, lol. You apparently don't know much about Suzuki and it's legendary racing history and bikes do you?
what are you? fukin 12? again... im not interested in legendary Shitzuki history. I want to know if this damn bike is gonna out perform BMW if not I'll take my business to Kawasaki for their H2.
If it's a shitzuki then why do you care? Your not good enough for a Gixxer...Go buy something else.
Aaron Moon I know in this day and age research is a little hard for a millennial like yourself but if you at least clicked on my profile you'd see I ALREADY HAVE A DAMN GIXXER. if you can't answer the question I've stated twice move along all you keyboard prime warriors.
Ha,Ha...Your an Idiot....I'm 46 you asshatt and,have owned a Suzuki dealer for decades.I've raced every Gixxer since inception.The H-2 isn't in the same category that the Gixxer and,BMW are...If you knew anything,you'd know that.I'm not interested in your profile...You and,a million other people have Gixxer's...Are you special or,something?
Hello Suzuki we want a comfortable bike for two and compact crossover type, 120-130 hp. Aluminum frame, upside-down forks, 4 cylinders, good aerodynamic protection and cases incorporated into the frame. Thank you😊
👍🏼👍🏼
i looked up the definition of "SCHWANTZ"
We will see what it do when it hits the streets we have heard this shit before from Suzuki
Time will tell
Are your Name is Programm.
When was that?
MrAssholebynature1 whatttt
Suzuki 1,2 place moto America and asbk 1 place and first 600 class so I guess it's doing pretty well fastest lap time in motogp but rider lannone crashing all the time fastest mcn review quarter mile the lowest at goes on let's do facts and the bike just came out
Some day they will prohibit explosion-motors. (Like in I Robot)
As long as they have an exhaust we should be happy XD
Always liked the look of GSXR just hate the cyclops headlight.
It's a kids game for Kevin to ride this half automatic machine.
Nice indicators. Good design - for a bike released in 1995.
To recap, someone paid by Suzuki says that Suzuki have made a great bike!
Michael Dunlop won the 2017 Isle of Man Senior on one. It is a great bike.
R1 the best
im pretty sure thats the gsxr1000 not the gsxr1000r
Kevin Schwantz is ridden 500cc gp 2 strokes. I bet those 1000cc bikes feels slow for him 😀 And normal people is like: what a cannon
Not slow, this bike has 500ccm more than his old RGV 500. But on this bike he doesn't have to be careful with the throttle, especially in corners, the TCS will prevent that the bike shoot him into the sky
Caution , Leans hard to right do to Exhaust, Can't get a knee down on left turns, Lol !
It has to be blue with white rims
I still love my 2005 gsxr1000 , that new gsxr1000 could only be black if I were to own one
Nice bike ,rear cowling looks very small
Nice bike but Godzilla exhaust has got to go !
Who buys a superbike and keeps the OEM pipe? Comon people.
Too bad we dont see Stoner vs Marquez, but back then people think that Stoner style was safer and faster on the track...
What you see here isn’t just a professional athlete at the peak of his skill, but also a guide on how to get the most out of your motorcycle. Study his form and apply it to your own riding and you’ll be both faster and safer.
rideapart.com/articles/this-is-how-you-should-be-riding-your-sportsbike
PS. As far as I know, stoner style has the same style like Randy Mamola or Gary McCoy and even similar to that of King Kenny.
I think the exhaust ist way to small. We Need bigger pipes
He's also like 125 years old so show some respect.........lol.......still faster than me!
On streets nothing touching it unless h2 r and 1300 but get ecu flashed and other upgrades they in the mirror
Where is he riding please?
He's riding on a race track somewhere.
Jamz Motocross Yeah, thanks for that.
Buttonwillow
CK Kelley Thank you - (I had to Google to check it was a real place but happily it is and I just had not heard of it!)
The chimney that was stolen from the Titanic, to put it as an exhaust pipe to the GSX-R1000R, has destroyed it 🤦♂️🤦♂️
should've Ohlins package like CBR1000RR I'm just saying.
it has bff forks, if you dont know what they are look them up
No electronic ohlins system that isnt BFF also cannot compare.
BFF forks or on an entirety different level from regular shocks, hence race bikes use this type of suspension.
TheRealBajan BFF suspension I heard its pretty good
but it still is a fork on a stock bike so the costs cant be that high . front and rear quality shocks cost about 3 grand so i doubt if this stock suspension is in the league of aftermarket top notch stuff
wasn't me you want look or performance, just go with cnc godness from ohlins fgrt 200 or showa bff & bfrc kit
would've been more impressive if it was Wayne Rainey who was riding it
Looks like a PHub video title
inline 4 is a yamaha r1 also known as (crossplane) this is not an inline four ,can't people get it right
both are inline 4, yamaha has different crank configuration, that's all.
I knew these comments would be full of idiots criticizing Kevin Schwantz's body position.
Who would rather see this video of this bike doing 180 in a 25mph 2 lane street with a school bus on 1 side and garbage truck on the other ?
Who cares about top end horsepower! I got an 06 GSXR1000 and there is no way I can ride it to it's full potential. That would be suicide............The thing's insane........But a hell of a lot of fun!
Good job suzuki, triumph did all this in 09
What are you even talking about , dude? Triumph makes great bikes but the daytona doesn't have the bfp front forks, bosh tc imu, braking imu, variable valve timing or even close to the power that this new gsxr has. As far as I'm aware, this new gsxr is going to be quite competitive with aprilia, bmw and kawasaki now. Triumph bikes are not even in the same ballpark as this bike.
lol right.. what a dumb ass comment +DØPÊ must be one of those "side line riders" hahaha
In the same family as keyboard warriors.
droceretik You mean where you grew up? Gtf outta here scrub.
At least I grew up!
