  • Quick audio note: We have since fixed our test ride audio, but we had a little too much wind noise in this one to hear the engine's full unadulterated sound - so there is a soundtrack under this one to help make the audio less jarring. The next video will have the full engine sound with no soundtrack!
    Today Abhi rides a 2001 Suzuki GSX-R1000 and gives us a quick rundown of its epic history. After approximately a decade and a half with the GSX-R1100 being the top of the Gixxer lineup, Suzuki introduced the all-new GSX-R1000 for 2001. Journalists felt it was the first bike to compete with Yamaha’s revolutionary R1 of 1998, and Suzuki was able to top the R1 with less weight and more power (374 pound dry weight, 160 hp/81 lb-ft at the crank).

    Besides the late 80s and early 90s I think 98-08 was the best decade for sport bikes

    Just bought myself a 2003 Suzuki Gsxr 600. Only 8650 kilometres ridden since new. Completely stock. I’m in love with gixxer❤️

    I have a blue 2001, low mileage, excellent condition, all stock. Nice to see they are going up in value, at least if they are collector quality.

    I think the late 90's/ early 00s GSXRs are going to appreciate soon. So many of them got trashed and they're so nice to ride. But I'm biased since I have a '96 SRAD!

      I HAD A 97 750 SRAD BLUE AND WHITE I BOUGHT IN 97. IT WAS MY SECOND BIKE. I HAD IT UNTIL 2009 WHEN SOME FUCK STOLE IT FROM MY APARTMENT🤬. I HOPE THE BASTARD THAT STOLE IT, WILL FOREVER HAVE BAD LUCK IN HIS/HER SORRY ASS LIFE. I LOVED THAT BIKE FROM THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT. I WOULD HAVE OWNED THAT BIKE FOR LIFE. ONCE I RECEIVED THE INSURANCE MONEY FROM THE SRAD IN 2009 IS WHEN I PURCHASED THE BIKE IN THIS CLIP AS A SECOND OWNER. I LOVE THE 1000 GREATLY, ITS AN AWSOME MACHINE, BUT MY 750 SRAD WILL FOREVA HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART.

    I strongly disagree with the opening statement for the 1996 GSXR 750 SRAD really got them back on the map going in to the 2000s. My opinion.

    • @user-yv1bf4rx7r
      @user-yv1bf4rx7r 8 месяцев назад +1

      That was a really special bike. It basically killed the 750 class because no one else could compete

    • @theant9821
      @theant9821 3 месяца назад

      Correct. The SRAD is the forgotten hero of sportsbikes.
      People Remember the 916 etc.
      People Remember the RC45
      People Remember the zx7r
      People don't really Remember anything else.
