Mark I'm a long time subscriber and I've been meaning to mention something. I always enjoy your reviews and one of the best bits is when you sit on the bike and show us the way it fits you. This is very helpful information. The coverage of the controls, specs and features is always complete.
That’s one of the key reasons I subscribed to Marks brilliant channel as I’m a male short arse rider and seat height for me is important. Keep up the great reviews Mark, 5 star reviews 👍👍👍
By far the best review I have seen of this bike on RUclips. Some of the oversubscribed vloggers should take note. Less irritating music and imagery and more information. Your reviews always provide me with all the information I am looking for, even down to the crucial, but overlooked by other vloggers, low down top gear tractability. I wouldn't buy a bike that didn't pull well from low down in top gear. I f I was in the market for a litre inline four, it would be this bike.
Excellent review! I personally think the bike looks fantastic! Quality looks great too. I’ve already ordered and paid for this model (2022) glass black sparkle. Cannot wait to get it!
Just watching you drive that fast on a beast of a machine made my pulse rate go way up. Imagine if I was actually on one. But no thanks, I'll just stick to my TMAX 560. As usual, it was another great detailed informative video. You ride safe & stay safe Mark!
Well Mark, thanks in part to your brilliant review I've put the deposit down on a 2022 GSX-S1000 in Triton blue. Just have to wait a few weeks until the dealer gets it in. Thanks again for the great reviews you do and keep them up!
Hi many thanks... great choice...and glad to hear you can get your bike in a few weeks as many people seem to have to wait months for some bikes cheers mark
@@markpulling12 Hello Mark. Well, I've had my 2022 GSX-S1000 for close to 10 months now and while it has been a fantastic bike to own, I sorely miss the ZX6R I had a couple of years back. I ended up test riding a used 2021 model at a dealer near me a couple of weeks ago and fell back in love with the engine character, powerband and nimbleness of that bike. Unfortunately the custom paint scheme on the bike I test rode was not to my liking. I have decided to trade in my Gixxus for a 2023 black ZX6R which was the last one available within hundreds of miles of my area. The 2023 ZX6R is one of the hottest bikes this year according to all the dealers I called to try to acquire one. If all goes well, I'll be riding home tomorrow on the ZX6R. Do you still have your ZX6R?
I went for the 2020 Speed RS bought new March this year..... no regrets as it was only a tad more money than this bike but the quality of every component is amazing, oh and its under 200kg and goes like stink... Nice video thanks Mark 😊
Great review .. have to test ride this bike looks stunning in the black.. need to see one in the flesh though, test road theMT-09sp last week and it as all that you said.. may have test ride this Suzuki to and the Honda😀👍🏻
Great review I rode this about the same time as you and really really liked it …fantastic bike comfortable fast /massively torquey wind blast good as you say for a naked just a dammed good bike…
@@markpulling12 your right that engine is the centrepiece… 100 percent -wish more people would try them I’m a fan of the z1000 in all it’s recent guise’s this pips it for me…
I test rode one yesterday and holy crap the torque. I didn´t how to fettle all the controls but i figured out how to change the TC and what a difference it was on the low end pick up. It felt sluggish going from 1 to 2, i didn´t try 3 or without tc. Seat was fantastic. Seating position felt great. The gear lever was a bit tight with raceboots on and took a bit get used to. The one critique i have is no cruise control. If it´s not a superbike in 2021 it should have cruise control even atleast as an option. Maybe the QS going down at low rpm was abit laggy but that could just be rider error but i just found easier to blip it myself.
I brought a pre registered GSX-S750 back in May and the bike is fantastic. The mid range on the bike is excellent. Not sure how I feel about the look of the front lights on these new versions but I am sure they will grow on me. Comfortable for long rides but like you say there is a bit of weight put on the wrist but the seat isnt uncomfortable. Great bike all round. Also just to mention the exhaust/engine sounds good especially when accelerating quickly through the gears.
@@markpulling12 Well, that is my new word for the day. At first I wondered how the front of the new Suzuki looked like a jar of yeast extract, but after researching further, believe you meant that the way the headlight(s) look is very polarizing, with some liking it and some disliking it.
This is an impressive bike for an impressive price. I'm not a huge fan of the headlights. I haven't been a fan of Suzuki's headlights for the last decade. But at least it's a lot better then the new MT-07 and MT-09 headlights. 💖💖👏🏼👏🏼
Mark, I think that you are a mind reader ! I was thinking earlier in the day; "when is Mark going to review the new GSX1000," Guess what; I started up my pc clicked on youtube and there it was ! ! Your review ! ! How is that for a coincidence ! ! Anyway, enough of that.This is a great bike at a very good price compared to a lot of other manufactures. OK the exotics (Ducati, Aprillia etc) are great and fantastic bikes but the Suzuki is well worth to consider if I would up-grade for poor fellas like myself. More than powerful enough with some toys, great looking at a fantastic price mark, what else is there to wish for. I would go for the blue one. Good review as per normal Mark, keep them coming ;) (sounds great on the standard can as well)
It's a good allrounder but I feel it's pretty short geared, 5,000 RPM at 70 in top gear. My old faithful SV1000 is doing 80 at those revs but nevertheless feels like it could use a 7th gear, the torque is so strong. That said, it doesn't much care for much below 34 MPH in top gear, unlike this bike. Can't have it all ways I suppose ! Great review Mark.
Nice vid & review. Seems like a great package at a very good price. More than enough for the road & good to see you don't need a computing degree to use the electronics. Seems like just about the right mix of everything to make it one the best value bikes around at the moment imo.
Looks good on you Mark. Older model always been cheaper than others in its class, this one is better designed definitely,but still not something to be impressed. Suzuki definitely doesn't have same designers as they use to. Nice video 👍
Agree the is a good review Mark. I like that you engaged with viewers. I'm in the market for a bigger bike and the GSX S1000 is on my list. The 750 too for a bargain deal. Here's the thing. Where I live down under in NZ the following range of bikes are only 500 pounds apart from cheapest to most expensive. In price order; MT09SP, Z900, Street Triple R and GSX S1000. So really nothing in it at all. Quite different bikes. Which would you park in your garage for the foreseeable future? Thanks again.
Good revue… I think most people get hung up on headline figures. This bike has it all and, like you sat, that engine! A 600 screamer version would be nice also.
Hello again mark I have a tracer 900 at the moment looking at the Suzuki for more grunt as I had a z1000 sx before the tracer and miss the grunt it had
Hi gary well the gsxs1000 is the king of grunt but if you're on a tracer maybe look at the gsxf model or even the new gt model ....just a thought cheers mark
I hope they revamp the gsxs750 to look more like this line and maybe make it more comfortable. I would feel better with the power of the 750 but i always felt the 1000 was way more comfortable. 🤷♂️
Definitely low geared you can pull away on the flat with a bit of clutch slip in 6th gear , regardless of that it's a really enjoyable package for the money and almost bulletproof reliability.
Both very different styles of bikes ....if you want a bike to Hoon arround on for big fun go gsx But the tracer 9 is better for touring I'd go for the tracer 9 Best regards mark
That thing looks just mean, Suzuki nailed it in the looks department and wild for 10,999 you can get brembos on a bike most nakeds with brembos range from 12,999 and up ⬆️
Verry good review, thanks! I wondering if it will be usefull for the taller riders? I'm 6.4 with a 36 inseam. Not a lot of bikes are comfortable if you don't want to ride a big Beamer or other adventure bikes. Maybe the upcomming GT will be a good choise...
good review, can you please add in your reviews some close up shot of the handlebar and cables to see if any room to install risers. Most riders would look at adding the risers to adjust the ergonomics to their height.
Nice bike but a couple of negatives. 1) No cruise control. I would opt for the MT-09 SP just to get cruise control. 2) Personal preference - not a fan of the ugly headlight. Would want to swap that out. Nice thorough review.
Mark,great,easy to understand RUclips piece (unlike all the other ineligible chancers who think they can-but definitely cannot). Anyway,I digress.How does this compare to the Katanna and then the more expensive MT 10. Also whilst down on 100cc, how about the Z900. Pleased to hear your knowledgable opinions on those. Thanks Mark.
Hi nick many thanks The mt10 and the gsxs are similar power but the mt10 feels different in a good way with its crossplane engine ,I haven't tried the katana,. The z900 is good value but I'd go for the mt09sp out of all I think 🤔 Best regards mark
@@markpulling12 The Yam sounds good but felt wooden front end as always. So. I BOUGHT one of these!!! 2022 model and used but mint & still under warranty with 6,000 KM's on it, same colour and all. Thanks for the review. That was easy. And yes it is so comfy. I'm 5'10" and fairly big guy and can ride all day. Cheers.
No cruise control, I take it? It's shocking how lazy I have become, but it's one of those make / break things for me nowadays. Looks like a fantastic bike in any case, though. I've had two Suzukis in the past and was a very happy camper. Thank you for the review!
My thoughts exactly on cruise ...I guess these type of bikes are less likely to have cruise ..but I like it so much I'd want it on every bike :) Cheers mark
I recently bought this bike and love it... I wanted it last year for the 2022 model but lack of cruise and the terrible... and I mean TERRIBLE display made me hold off. Finally bit though. It's an incredible machine nonetheless. I know it's a naked bike but I installed a Puig touring windscreen to take the brunt of the wind off my chest and it made a world of difference.
Upgrading from ninja 650. Big leap but really like look of it and reviews are decent. Does the puig windscreen make a big difference? Test riding tomorrow so will know how bad the wind is.
Hi Mark, maybe a bit sad but as I'm waiting until May to buy one hopefully 22/23 model, but my question is maybe odd and you may not know the answer but here it is: I'm going to be buying the oxford beast chain would this fit through the front wheel being a 22mm chain. Think I must had watched yours and all gsxs youtube vids at least 20x lol
Very nice review, a lot of informations. I really like this bike but also like a kawasaki z900Se. What would you think that is better for that money, in my country those two are same price. Thanks a lot
You look good on it, Mark; you should definitely put one in your garage, next to the MT-10! ;) (Just sell a kidney! You have two, after all!) Great review, as always!
Good review, bigger engine naked bikes are over kill for streets, with no wind protection they are not comfortable on faster roads , these bikes are good if you can make them sport touring, I would search for touring mods for these naked bikes before making any decision on purchasing one.
Awesome bike mark good review ,does it have a center stand on this one ?. I think I would probably go for the solder one just so save a pound or two but it's certainly impressive . Cheers : )
Great review as always Mark thank you for that. One negative, you still call the ground the 'floor'... remember floors are found indoors 👍😎👍. The ex teacher in me, regards from Dublin Ireland ☘️.
I have the 2019 White special edition, all standard bar ecu flashed, with puig screen, 20mm risers and rad gaurd . Not sure i will be getting this one. Looks a little cheap, those headlights and the camo thing are the main reasons. Not seen one in the flesh yet so may change my opinion.
@@markpulling12 Josh at Jordan Bikes in Leeds. all restrictions off, pair valve, airbox restrictor, fan temp lowered etc etc... Gave +10hp but silky smooth and no horrible engine braking more importantly to me. They have done loads tbf.
I need your help guys. I bought this machine about 2 month ago. Bought it with 1k km and at about 2500 rpm without gas i hear some wierd buzzing. Is this normal? I talked with Suzuki about it and they "looked" at it, and they said its completly normal.. I dont know what to do. Maybe some of you had the same experience. Thanks :)
@@markpulling12 thanks heaps. I just wish it was 10kg lighter and had cruise control. They went too far with the goal of cutting price. People are willing to pay more for Nakeds now
Nice bike but they still have these ugly frame welds in 2022 ) I have 2015 v-strom and when my girlfriend first saw these welds, she asked is that factory welds or what?
Hey Mark, great review! Looking at possibly getting this bike or the Yamaha MT-09 SP. What are your thoughts on the pros and cons of these two choices? Thanks!
Hi well firstly they are both brilliant...the gs.xr based engine on the Suzuki is a knockout !! But I think the Suzuki doesn't have cruise but the Yamaha sp does and I have a tracer 9 gt myself which is the same engine as the mt09 and it's amazing so me personally I'd go mt09 but it's really close and depends on the deal you can get and how the bikes fits you ...maybe try and get some test rides cheers mark
@@markpulling12 Good points made Mark. I actually have had many GSX-R750s over the years and many years ago had a 2002 GSX-R1000 which was a beast. I love the Gixxer engine and how nicely it winds up and the unique sound it produces especially with an aftermarket exhuast. Right now my current and favorite ride is a 2021 MT-07. I can't get enough of it and find it a blast to ride and excellent for the daily commute and lane filtering. I just would like something a little more powerful for the times I want that power and better suspension/stability. I'm just wondering if the MT-09 would be too similar to the MT-07? I like to have a definitive contrast in the bikes I own.
@@cmbiker yes it's similar Yamaha feel to your my07 but way more power so yes maybe the gsxs1000 might be a better contrast...I had a 2001 k1 gsxr1000 and the legendary k 5 !!!

Definitely low geared you can pull away on the flat with a bit of clutch slip in 6th gear , regardless of that it's a really enjoyable package for the money and almost bulletproof reliability.

I recently bought this bike and love it... I wanted it last year for the 2022 model but lack of cruise and the terrible... and I mean TERRIBLE display made me hold off. Finally bit though. It's an incredible machine nonetheless. I know it's a naked bike but I installed a Puig touring windscreen to take the brunt of the wind off my chest and it made a world of difference.
Upgrading from ninja 650. Big leap but really like look of it and reviews are decent. Does the puig windscreen make a big difference? Test riding tomorrow so will know how bad the wind is.
Hi Mark, maybe a bit sad but as I'm waiting until May to buy one hopefully 22/23 model, but my question is maybe odd and you may not know the answer but here it is:
I'm going to be buying the oxford beast chain would this fit through the front wheel being a 22mm chain.
Think I must had watched yours and all gsxs youtube vids at least 20x lol
Yes I'm sure it will fit through...
Cheers mark
Hi Mark,doing the review for the Gt version anytime soon??
Yes but it's very hard to get hold of
Dealers don't have demos at the moment
Watch this space!!
отличный велосипед за свою цену
I like this bike; great price for what you get......
Definitely ... awesome engine !!
Regards mark
Excellent review Mark! Just added a 2022 Hayabusa to the family
Thanks tom ...I'm reviewing the new Hayabusa soon !!
@@markpulling12 Wow…can’t wait. Pick it up next week
@@markpulling12 you've just posted it!!
@@mrsilbo6499 it's awesome 😎
@@markpulling12 I bet it is. A real torque monster missile! I live 5 mins from Suzuki's UK HQ & I see them whizzing about on Hayabusas regularly.
Very nice review, a lot of informations. I really like this bike but also like a kawasaki z900Se.
What would you think that is better for that money, in my country those two are same price. Thanks a lot
Hi dame if they are the same price I'd go for the suzuki regards mark
Hi mark,
Nice review as always,
Do you have recommendations where to buy the same pillion seat cowl with the same color.
I think it's the genuine Suzuki one :)
The Gsxs needs a modern TFT!!
Hi Mark,nice bike review, like always..what bike you recommended, this suzuki or street triple rs ? Thanks
Hi the street triple RS is awesome but I would go for this one 👍
You look good on it, Mark; you should definitely put one in your garage, next to the MT-10! ;) (Just sell a kidney! You have two, after all!) Great review, as always!
Which would you pick among the Japanese competitors? Love your vids always 👍🎉
Hi Ella's they are all brilliant but super naked I'd go Mt,09 SP new model
Me personally I'd get a tracer 9 gt
Best regards mark
Good review, bigger engine naked bikes are over kill for streets, with no wind protection they are not comfortable on faster roads , these bikes are good if you can make them sport touring, I would search for touring mods for these naked bikes before making any decision on purchasing one.
Thanks for the comment the f version of this is a good tourer :)
Some don't like the looks. I think it looks pretty good. What do you think gsxs1000 or z900abs?
Hi ross it looks great....Suzuki for me because of that engine :)
I have the bandit 650 now but when it comes to swap it I want the gsxs750
Thanks good choice 🙂
@@markpulling12 thanks mate. Great review. How is your custom bike goin
@@banditbeggers533 ahh not me ...no custom bike 👍
@@markpulling12 sorry got you mixed up with another RUclipsr mate. My bad
Don't like the headlights but an excellent review of a great bike Mark. 👍😀
My pleasure :)
I'm looking forward to the faired version
Thanks Ian :)
Awesome bike mark good review ,does it have a center stand on this one ?. I think I would probably go for the solder one just so save a pound or two but it's certainly impressive . Cheers : )
Hi Malcolm no sorry no center stand
Cheers mark
Great review as always Mark thank you for that. One negative, you still call the ground the 'floor'... remember floors are found indoors 👍😎👍. The ex teacher in me, regards from Dublin Ireland ☘️.
Ok thanks Leonard :)
I have the 2019 White special edition, all standard bar ecu flashed, with puig screen, 20mm risers and rad gaurd . Not sure i will be getting this one. Looks a little cheap, those headlights and the camo thing are the main reasons. Not seen one in the flesh yet so may change my opinion.
Thanks Richard ...who did the ECU flash for you ...
Love these bikes cheers mark
@@markpulling12 Josh at Jordan Bikes in Leeds. all restrictions off, pair valve, airbox restrictor, fan temp lowered etc etc... Gave +10hp but silky smooth and no horrible engine braking more importantly to me. They have done loads tbf.
@@BarnettSpeedSuzukiThou brill thanks for the info Richard
Another great review Mark job well done.
Thanks Leonard
I need your help guys. I bought this machine about 2 month ago. Bought it with 1k km and at about 2500 rpm without gas i hear some wierd buzzing. Is this normal? I talked with Suzuki about it and they "looked" at it, and they said its completly normal.. I dont know what to do. Maybe some of you had the same experience. Thanks :)
Excellent, well detailed review thumbs up.
I've seen a lot of reviews, and you made one of the best. Do you think someone 1.90m would feel comfortable?
Hi yes it's quite a roomy bike you'll be fine at 1.9 m . .. cheers mark
Great, comprehensive, expert ride review..... 👍
Thanks My pleasure 😊
Great review. It’s a beast. Thanks
Thanks James ...see my Hayabusa review aswell ;)
Hi my name is Robert and I have the suzuki gsx s 100 2015 and its brilliant but I want to get the new one want is it like to ride 😊👍
Excellent review. Does it handle as well as the other Supernakeds?
Hi ash most definitely...its up there with the best of them
Awesome bike
@@markpulling12 thanks heaps. I just wish it was 10kg lighter and had cruise control. They went too far with the goal of cutting price. People are willing to pay more for Nakeds now
Nice bike but they still have these ugly frame welds in 2022 ) I have 2015 v-strom and when my girlfriend first saw these welds, she asked is that factory welds or what?
Hi Mark great review which bike would pick between the Suzuki or a z 900
Hi Gary gsxs for me but I'd actually go for a mt09sp ...love that bike for it's triple engine and cruise control
Cheers mark
Hey Mark, great review! Looking at possibly getting this bike or the Yamaha MT-09 SP. What are your thoughts on the pros and cons of these two choices? Thanks!
Hi well firstly they are both brilliant...the gs.xr based engine on the Suzuki is a knockout !!
But I think the Suzuki doesn't have cruise but the Yamaha sp does and I have a tracer 9 gt myself which is the same engine as the mt09 and it's amazing so me personally I'd go mt09 but it's really close and depends on the deal you can get and how the bikes fits you ...maybe try and get some test rides cheers mark
@@markpulling12 Good points made Mark. I actually have had many GSX-R750s over the years and many years ago had a 2002 GSX-R1000 which was a beast. I love the Gixxer engine and how nicely it winds up and the unique sound it produces especially with an aftermarket exhuast. Right now my current and favorite ride is a 2021 MT-07. I can't get enough of it and find it a blast to ride and excellent for the daily commute and lane filtering. I just would like something a little more powerful for the times I want that power and better suspension/stability. I'm just wondering if the MT-09 would be too similar to the MT-07? I like to have a definitive contrast in the bikes I own.
@@cmbiker yes it's similar Yamaha feel to your my07 but way more power so yes maybe the gsxs1000 might be a better contrast...I had a 2001 k1 gsxr1000 and the legendary k 5 !!!
@@markpulling12 I guess I'm gonna have to find a way to test ride each one to be sure. Thanks and keep up the great reviews!
Really like your reviews. What's your preference between this and the Yamaha MT 10?
Hi David very much of a muchness
But I'd go for the suzuki because I just love it's k5 based engine :)
@@markpulling12 thank you so much! Waiting for the new MT 10 to come out to schedule test rides. Love both bikes.
Great review Mark as always.
Thanks Nicholas :)
i can understand why sport bikes have little or no passenger accommodation but why doesn't someone build bikes like this with a flat seat?
Nice review this very informative
Thanks my pleasure
Regards mark
great video..great guy to listen to...
Many thanks :)
Great review mate……but those headlights 🧐
Yes David ...hmmm :)
Amazing value
