Suzuki is always best bang for buck most fun barebones kind of lineup. It was a joy to ride.

And the twin headlight better

If you have the mentality to go in respecting the power output, Im sure this wouldnt be a bad bike to grow into. The 750 is even friendlier to beginners and is pretty fast still

NOT!

IT'S A GOOD BEGINNER BIKE FOR BEGINNER ASTRONAUTS TO THE GRAVEYARD...NEVER OVER ESTIMATE YOURSELF...THIS BIKE IS A REAL ROCKET...NO MATTER WHERE YOU'VE BEEN....

I added HyperPro front fork springs ($300) n handle like a 750 now. Chhaaa

A traditional 4 cylinder without the cross-plane setup. I should have worded it better by saying "traditional 4 cylinder". When you ride bikes that are this exciting you think one thing but say another.

You don't apply. All it takes is for you to have a license with a motorcycle endorsement and sign up for a time slot at the demo tent. Typically they discourage you to ride the supersports if you give them an air of lack of confidence, they will ask you how long you've been riding for and force you to ride the beginner bikes first.

Tell me about it!, unfortunately most of the rides get held back for one reason or another. For the past year Kawasaki has been skipping the demo ride event too! Hopefully they are back for Biketoberfest this year, I really want to try their new 1000cc.

Yeah, it really sucks having a "nanny" riding in front, on a bike like this :D I hope you get a chance to ride a zx10r again, just be careful, it explodes like a rocket and is more addictive than drugs ;) The new ninja 1000 looks pretty nice to :) And a bit more civilized with 145hp :) Still enough to get you in trouble faster than you can say "Sorry Officer, I sneezed and my right hand slipped a bit" ;)

Absolutely, the feeling of acceleration on this thing is incredible and can't be translated through video. Cornering feel I can't really judge well since Suzuki demo rides are higher speed, so I actually had more fun on the Suzuki in that aspect. The sound from the FZ is a thing of its own, and the burbles and pops even with a stock pipe were awesome. Problem though is price vs fun, a new GSX-S1000 is selling for 8 grand discounted, whereas the FZ being new retails for 12k. I would probably buy the Suzuki.

Yeas, that is a big difference in price.

i would have to disagree but then again it all comes down to the opinion of the rider as i own the fz 10 after riding all of them normally i was a die hard super sport fan and always them to me the fz is that but in a naked style and i dont get that feeling from the gsxs or any other naked other than maybe the tuono but that's just me and for the price youre right but to me the extra 4k is worth it in every way. great video man.

What a pain!

Absolutely. The light front end feeling for me was only under acceleration from the crazy torque feeling that you can never convey over video. This bike is definitely at the top of my list of future upgrade rides to consider. Did you tune it for a full exhaust or just for power? The sound this cross-plane engine makes is wonderful

I didn't do the link pipe, just the akro, the race tune fixes the take off response, also the lagbetween 6000 rpm and 8000 rpm and opens the top end. I have a two part video on my cannel if your interesred. I can say this is the best bike I've owed and the rsce tune has made Standard smoother and Bmode insane.

Jose Gonzalez Going from a Harley to a Zuke?! I love it. Don't drink the Kool-Aid brother.

Did u get one?

This was behind the Daytona Speedway during Bike Week. They have the same setup for Biketobefest. You will find the demo stands either at the front of the speedway by the tunnel entrance, or the back right in front of the airport runway. The only convention demo ride day you will find is in Orlando during Aim-Expo which is actually happening soon (Oct 13-16). That convention/demo ride event is amazing since not only do you have regular rides, but you can test ride off-road vehicles on artificial dirt tracks as well.

Thanks and I hope you had some fun still at Daytona. I did notice the snatchy throttle on the GSX test ride I did last year... It was really hard to be smooth with the engine at low RPMs and the smallest twist of the throttle would give way too much acceleration. I thought it was a fueling issue at the time. For this test ride they must have adjusted the throttle slack properly since it made a world of difference and I was able to ride without having to concentrate on turning the throttle a millimeter at a time. This bike had absolutely no controls issues.

Hi, well I got a test ride on one today and had no trouble with the throttle or any snatchy behaviour. The dealer said that Suzuki has issued a revised ECU that has been fitted to all models built after Feb 2016 and will retro fit (free of charge) to any affected models bought before that - so that's good to them to rectify that. I really enjoyed the bike and found it nicer to ride than the Yamaha MT-10 (FZ-10 in the USA) that I tested a couple of weeks ago. My only issue with the Suzuki was that I found it cramped, I'm 6'3" and my current bike is a Triumph Tiger Explorer - a totally different machine but previously I was riding a Triumph Speed Triple 1050, which is of course very similar to the GSX-S1000 and the MT-10 and it's that sort of bike I'd like to get back to rather than the adventure/tourer that I have now. The next bike I need to try is the Kawasaki Z1000SX (Ninja 1000 stateside), to see if that fits me better. We really enjoyed our stay in Orlando and of course Daytona Bike Week was great too - my wife and I will be back next year for bike week and will base ourselves in Orlando again. Maybe see you there!

I film everything on a Gopro 4 silver with a Sony mic wired to go inside my helmet. When the throttle is tweaked to have a bit of slack this bike is amazing.

That's a hard question to answer given that Honda offers no test rides so I can only imagine that it would be a lot more comfortable but you would give up the flickability this bike has, it really feels super light compared to other nakeds. A vfr12000 would also not be as rev happy as this thing is. If you do lots of touring it would be a better choice I assume.

Its your usual Gopro HERO4 coupled with a wired mic into my helmet.

I appreciate the props and the view! It's a great bike.

Awesome! I'm happy I could sway someone to try this bike out, it really is my favorite out of all the test rides I've done

Thanks for the comment! I will keep on making new video reviews during bike week and biketoberfest every year and trying to make the vids more interesting every time.

+Timmy's Shenanigans Every video on this channel is using this mic. The only additional thing I would add to this setup is to get a foam cover for the mic so it removes all the wind noise from your helmet and you can hear your engine perfectly.

+MrPickleahoy Thanks bud!! It sounds good! I will definitely grab a wind cover to the list! Will have some vids up my channel soon, watch a few let me know if you like em!

+Benny Pap Congrats dude!!

+Go Faster That's freaking awesome to hear!, I was amazed by this bike... I'm glad you ended up with one because I get the feeling people will overlook it just because it isn't a Supersport. It really pulls faster than anything else I've ever ridden from all the other manufacturers down low.

+David Peplow Congrats dude!!! The feeling you will get when you twist the throttle open the first time will blow you away. It's really comfortable too!

+MrPickleahoy Well I've traded in my MT-09/FZ-09 for it, I'm hoping I'll feel a good bit of difference.

+David Peplow The Suzi is much much better...

Right about 8000 rpm it really kicks in and sends it, having a power commander is a whole nother beast too. I rode my GSXS1000F an hour back from where i got it from and it was so comfortable even at 70-80 mph, virtually no wind resistance.

+Dulf Nordensvärd You will notice you can stay on the power much longer, I was constantly hitting the rev limiter on the FZ07 and this one revs much higher so you can enjoy the extra power even more. It's slightly roomier and has a better suspension than the FZ07.

+MrPickleahoy sounds like something i would indeed like. thank you for this. really like The powerful look. i want a inline 4 without having to buy a litre bike you know. so i Will try this and the z800 when i get the chance

MrPickleahoy is it good for pillion riding. it two up comfortable???

+Trouble Maker Word! If I was in the market for a new bike the naked GSX would be my buy for sure.

+MrPickleahoy yes me to! I am actually looking, So this is my first choice! Im waiting for the Demo rides on the 2016 Ducati Xdiavel S, Once i test ride that bike ill make a decision..
