We peeled off of the main BDR route near Fall River and bushwacked back to Mt. Shasta to complete the ride. Thanks for sharing your ride. G. (Bink)

    Beautiful scenery in your part of the world. On my GSX-8S I find if I pre-load the quick shifter a second before taping it up or down it seems to change a lot smother. I normally use it from 2nd upwards. Down shifting seems to be good if you are rolling off the throttle. I also looked at the Vstrom to go touring on, but instead I am going to try touring on the 8S and see how capable it is. Nice video, many thanks.

    Caught some of your videos. I also own the 2024 Suzuki GSX-8S in the same color scheme. I first bought the 2024 Suzuki GSX-8R in blue but it took about 250 miles to realize I would have been happier with the 8S so I found a dealership that made an acceptable trade. I also have a 2023 Honda CB500X and a 2015 VStar 950T. It's taken me a while to accept that 1 bike wasn't going to work for me. While I would be interested in hearing about the VStrom I hope you reconsider giving up the 8S. Like you I think it's an awesome engine but I also think the style of the bike helps that experience and the VStrom might not give you the same feeling.

      Ahh it’s good to experience different bikes. I’ve owned 2 generations of the 650 and 1 generation of the 1000 vstrom. I currently own the GSX-8S. I took both the 8E and 8S for a run and I just loved how playful that 8S was. Something about the lighter weight and sitting in the wind. I like to swap bikes around too. That feeling when you but a new bike is fantastic. I own a CRF250L with every modification you can think of for my biking and adventure riding. Versys x300 for my adventure long distance touring riding. GSX-8S for my sport riding. Ninja 1000sx for sport touring. When is comes to adventure I like smaller nimble bikes that cost little to run and maintain. Yet engaging and quick enough to keep up. Hence the slower bikes for the overnight long distance. It really adds to the adventure I think. Sport bikes for shorter distance I like power and fun. Everything needs to be comfortable or I find myself not riding. They don’t travel as far so costs really don’t matter too much, if like me one cares about value. I agree, having a few bikes that do different things keeps it interesting.
