    It does look good. With the raised clip ons it'll definitely have a more lower back friendly rider triangle compared to it's competitors. So it could be a better all rounder for the middleweight market.

    Always loved my Japanese bikes especially Suzuki and am a big fan of nakeds so love the looks of the GSX-8S but saying that being an older fella and rider not wanting to set the world on fire this new GSX-8R looks like a great bike. Got to the point where I don’t want a big power bike just something to enjoy a good fun ride on.

    Suzuki have done a really good job with styling, in my opinion it looks better than the ninja 650 and I’d definitely buy the Suzuki over the Kawasaki. It definitely looks fun to ride and up for some short touring. The blue looks great and the silver with the red wheels and lettering. Nice one Suzuki!

    • @k1mura92
      @k1mura92 9 месяцев назад +3

      The reality is that low displacement inline fours doesn't sell. People want "usable power", i.e. torque down low, which parallel twins provide at an affordable price. Not only that, most people seem to prefer the twin sound, especially with the 270 crank.
      Also, remember that this is Suzuki we're talking about. They've made a new platform with the parallel twin, and they're going to milk it hard across multiple models. The new GX uses the revised K5 from the Katana.

      Sadly, the 8R has the same super short rear like the 8S. Suzukis own "case" Options are a joke. Just some non-lockable soft bags. There is no luggage support for the 8S from Givi or Shad, only hideous Top Cases. Simply no space to fit any form of side-rack. Only Hepco & Becker has their C-Bow System for the 8S / 8R. But the Luggage Option for this System is more or less for short Weekend Trips (15-20l per side). 5cm longer rear and this would be the best middle weight sport tourer, for a great price. But this actual kills it for me.

    If you add a case to the 8R, then you can sell it directly as a GT. It's beautiful, and I also think it's good in terms of performance. The price will be exciting. With a naked bike handlebar, it would also be something for comfortable riding. Suzuki really needs to step on the gas here, Yamaha is doing a marvellous job with the 700cc platform. I wish Suzuki the best of luck, they have neglected the European market for far too long. Greetings from Germany.

    Did the final drive remain unchanged or did they make it a bit longer, like they did with the R7, so it can go a bit faster than the naked bike? Looks a bit meh. Kinda like the Ninja 650. I was hoping it would be more sporty. Suzuki is kinda lacking in that department since the GSX-R 600 and 1000 are not sold anymore.

    What about the new Suzuki GSX S1000 GX?

    I’ve got the 8S and this looks exactly the same with the added fairing. £9K may be difficult as you get get a discounted RS660 for about £9600. If the pegs are in the same place they grind out far too soon. Looking forward to a test ride though.

    Looks good but it's no sports bike so somewhat of a misplaced R maybe. Although not a big deal really as long as you know what you're dealing with, which is a seemingly decent sports tourer.

    where is the new GSX 1000 GX, that bike might be the best reveal of the year.

    I'd go this 8R over the R7, I hate to say this but Yamaha's CP2 engine is getting seriously outclassed by it's latest rivals.

    Like the look. But on paper, the Aprilia RS660 isa chunk lighter, more powerful, quick shifter too, cruise control, cornering ABS, and less than £1k more…
