I've owned the GSX-R1000, ZX-10R, a couple of ZX-6Rs and always keep coming back to the 750. Just picked up a 2023 GSX-R750 (my 4th one) a few months ago and have written a note to self not to sell it until I can't physically ride anymore. 😆
Im 6' 3" 190lbs and my 2015 GSXR750 is one of the best bikes ive ever ridden.
The owners group is full of ex 1000 owners of all makes. There is no direct competitor and I did 180 mph speedo indicated. Super predictable brakes and chassis, no TC or ABS needed. (I work at a bike dealership in the home of Sturgis and im not short on experience or variety)
It truly is arguably the worlds best street bike as far as sportbikes go. The sound is fantastic even stock. Very MotoGP "Howl" sounding.
Had my K7 1000 since last January. All over the UK, all weather, done 13,000 miles on it. No desire to replace it at all, absolutely love it
GSXR.......Paddock jacket over leathers with blown out armpits and Addis bag bungee'd to the back and off to WSB in Assen or Spain. Priceless.
Brought a lump to my throat ! The GSXRs were just the right blend of rawness and usability ❤ Can't believe the 1000k5 is 18 years old .....thanks for these great memories 👍
Great video Neevesy. I'm 44 years old now and started riding in 2017(midlife crisis), my first bike was a 2000 GSXR600 SRAD in the original Red white and Blue scheme. Great first bike, enough power to make you smile, but also very easy to maneuver. I upgraded the master cylinder with Brembo and fitted braided lines. Kept it for 5 years. On a FireBlade 929 now.
Totally agree the 600 SRAD was also so underrated, I had one new in 96 it was game changing back then, pulled like a train and handled. Well anything did after 350lcs really 😅
How humble can one man be. 1st class video. Many Thanks.
2001-up gsxr 600 & 750 are my all time favorite bikes. I've owned several, don't have one now, and I'm definitely getting another soon. I'm in los Angeles about 5 minutes from the world famous rock store & Snake run for the last 25yrs. Gsxr heaven.
I've always been a Honda fanboy just because of their precise fit and finish and all that perfection. I really hated a Gsxr up until I bought one.
I got a K5 600 in 2019 from Ebay just because it was dirt cheap, dropped on its left side with slight fairing damage, but low mileage.
I rebuilt and fixed it and became my daily to commute to work and doing track days.
OMG, this bike is phenomenal! Even in the smallest version it's such fun and so much more raw than a 600RR.
I absolutely love it.
It's comfy for a sports bike and does everything right with some small upgrades like braided lines, decent pads,a K&N airfilter and a nice pipe.
It's the perfect allrrounder.
I'd only sell it if a nice 750 came up😊
Thanks for your bold and honest videos Michael! They're very valuable for us!✊
This man has so much credibility- I enjoy regularly listening to him.
I remember riding my friends brand new 2009 Gsxr750. It was so buttery smooth and quick to boot. Absolutely hope and pray that Suzuki will modernize and bring to date that 750. Yes, we can still buy then here in the states. It does not out sell the Busa here. Next you see the S1000rr then, the R1 in comparison to which are being sold for the streets.
As a die hard GSXR fan I really enjoyed this video! I’ve had 3 750’s, a 91 M model a 2015 L5 and currently a 2001 Y and genuinely loved them all. Never had a GSXR 1000 but recently got a 2023 GSXS1000 and I’m seriously impressed by it, especially that engine. Thanks for the great content.
With regards to the Revzilla test, it was their own bike that they'd bought 2nd hand, so they weren't worried about difficult conversations, if they tossed it down the track. One of the riders in the test, Ari Henning, is also a mechanic and does mechanical related content for Revzilla as well. He went through the bike after they purchased it and gave it some degree of mechanical reconditioning. So they were certain that the bike was as good as they could make it. The bike remains in their fleet and they subsequently used it in a test of new tires versus old tires that had been properly stored.
Well said Steve!
And also to mention that they've done the bike compairation on fairly shitty track with not much long straight sections and that didn't help the Panigale to let its horse power shine.
The Suzuki had better gearing for that specific track and the inline4 was way easier to muscle around those thight corners than the Duc.
Hence the K5s' win in that video.
Had they made the test in Katar, Mugello or some other fast European tracks the Ducati would have eaten the GSXR alive, due to its, HP advantage and modern electronics!😉
As much as I want the K5 they had in the video to be as fast as it was as a stock bike, their K5 was a racetrack refugee and a bit of a “ringer”. It had suspension work and chassis setup that a sharp eye can pick up. Still quite a feat, but not a box stock David beating Goliath.
@@nunyabidness9257 yeah it had a refurbished Ohlin shock and new fork internals etc
Reliability. GSX-R 750 K8 with 65 000 km on the clock, still running strong. 131 HP on rear tyre when dynoed at 58 000. Lots of track days. Just changed the clutch and valves checked some needed re shimming. Keep it serviced, and if you do a lot of track riding change the oil and oil filter a bit more often and have the valves checked. If you buy a used one without documented servicing, do a full engine and suspension service (fork oil should be changed every 12 000 according to my Clymer manual) and have it set up for you weight. Get some good brake pads - makes a workd of difference. Standard springs / suspension are ok for my weight at 75 kilos pluss gear.
Thank you for the huge effort in putting a Suzuki GSXR video together. I have owned a Gixxer 1000 back in 2010 which I did some amateur racing with and absolutely loved it, however after owning three Gixxer 750’s I would agree with you that the 750 is so much more fun. I recently found a mint completely stock 2010 Gixxer 750 (with only 4000kms on the odometer!) which I believe to be the most beautiful and elegant of all the Gixxer models. The headlight arrangement is unique and was only on the Gixxer 750 for two years. Thanks again for keeping the spirit alive this wonderfully looking and handling machine. BTW I ride the modern generation Katana with the trusty K5 engine as my go to bike (so I certainly have the best of two worlds!) and keep my Gixxer L0 in my study to admire every single day!!
Cheers

“… that carefree innocence is lost….” What a profound motorcyclist. Blessings
My first bike was a k8 gsxr-600, i grew so much as a rider over the years with that thing, loved it to bits.
For the guys that are wondering which to go for (GSXR750 or 1000) in a used bike, the choice depends on how long you plan to keep it and how you plan to ride it. 750’s generally are treated as disposable and the few that are left would have to be in absolutely mint condition to not deal with someone else’s problems. The 1000’s, k5 and 6 especially, are owned by riders that “know” and tend to take care of them.
The 750 will definitely be more fun in terms of being able to rev it, bang thru the gearbox etc, but to be honest…. So is a 765 Street Triple that is a much better all around bike. You want to buy the 1000 because you want a bike that is easy to ride fast without having to beat on it. You buy a K5 because you want Superbike performance in a bike that doesn’t give you a fuel light 105 miles into your 160 mile backroad loop. I’ve had my K5 since new and have since bought an R1M and the K5 never feels low back to back and actually feels faster and more powerful because the Yamaha has to be revved to get power and the tall gearing means you never really are in the power on the road. The GSXR feels fuck off fast all the time, and has that “unlimited speed” feel that lets you know nobody on the road around you can outrun you.
Two new bikes on from the K5, all I want to do is make it better-because it for damned sure isn’t irrelevant. It’s a set of cams, head work, and brakes away from being just as powerful as a new liter bike, is a lot lighter, and with the aftermarket traction control available it’s almost as safe too.
The K5 represents the best in motorcycling from an exciting time. It still has what I consider to be the best engine to grace two wheels. Resale will always be stronger on a K5 and that makes it a no-brainer for me.
Bought my first gixxer in 2009 and sold it in 2012. then early March this year 2023 got meself a GSXR 750 absolutely love it, I am 67 yrs old and its the love of my life, 7yrs old. less than 8000 miles on the clock and in showroom condition! could anyone resist such a fantastic machine? not me 😃😃
I own an L5 2015 GSXR1000 and I'm mainly a road rider. It's way too much for the road but I just love how lazy I can be riding it, short shift up and it's still got loads of torque even at low speeds in high gears. Awesome bikes
Great memories, from a RG125 Gamma to a GSXR1000. On a Triumph Speed Triple R now but have always loved the Suzuki brand.
I’m a 750 believer. Almost 50 years old and put over $8k of mods into mine to make it look more modern, perform better, and make it more comfortable. It’s a great bike to make your own.
Same here brother, mines a k8 with quickshifter, cat delete and dyno tune for midrange grunt. Never been beat. I also own an R1 Rossi, but the gixxer is the goat.
Could you let me know what you got done? I would like to know if it's true, as some people allege that it would be easier to dial in an Ohlins shock over a BiMoto (which I can get discounted massively), even though the BiMoto has more tweakability. I am thinking about this on my L8 750, including upgrading fork internals for my weight, raised bar clips like you mentioned, a custom seat and a braided brake line, a Brembo master cylinder upgrade, plus a cat delete pipe with a Yoshi R-77D and a flash tune that will up the HP and Nm by 8% and smooth the bike out even more. A reupholstered raised seat. Double-Bubble Racing screen. It should be comfy, smooth, and fast! I am 6'2"

@@professorvoluck9311 awesome upgrades. Did you go Ohlins complete fork replacement or justOhilns fork internals.?
@Dream-Academy Just internals. That’s really all you need. I have fork protectors that cover the tubes completely anyhow. They look like carbon fiber.
Like watching a man talking about his 1st gf. Such a pleasure to watch. Thanks.
I’d join a bike club if the crack was as good as this , you get a “YES” every time I see a new post.
Keep them coming, loved the factory story 👌
Thank you mr neeves👍...K4 750 was for me the hands down best four cylinder bike I've ever owned. Really saddened that suzuki have seemingly abandoned racing and the pursuit of engineering truly wonderful sports bikes that normal guys n gals could get there mitts on.
Love the gsxr's and have owned a k6, k7 and a L2. I think the answer you're looking for for the first question is a favorite quote of mine "if some is good more is better and too much is never enough". Yeah 750s are great and probably the best pick of the bunch but a 1000 is just that bit more exciting to ride and will put a bigger smile on your face everytime
Wow! Thanks for answering my question - much appreciated!
Good question and it does vary by manufacturer too. For example the Honda VTR SP1 was also known as Racing Cycle 51 (RC51) in other countries. Honda also use their Project Codes alongside the model name so CBR600RR has a PC number written on the under seat model info panel. So PC53 for example. The relentless continuous improvement that Honda is known for is done in Projects which used to be every two years for a new year model followed by new paint scheme at the next year. Manufacturing industry more than engineering as such.
That was then, but Euro regulations have deliberately made the engineering investment unjustifiable.
Sadly those same constraints have set the unrealistic expectations that bikes at a circuit will emit 98dB whereas stock bikes actually make 102dB so even track bikes aren't safe...
Love the GSXR's. The rider triangle fits me the best out all sport bikes and that is probably the most important factor for this category of bikes as we are splitting hairs when we consider performance for the road... . It just so happens that everything else about them is bang on (for the road and occasional track). Great value for money regardless of year model you can't go wrong.
Shakey on a '99 'busa in France. My favourite vid. I had a Gsxr1100, GSXR1000K2 and a GSXR1000 K5. Fave was the K2 but the K5 was a better bike. Yeah I know. I had better experiences with the K2! Isle of man TT trip was one. 👍👍👍👍I've also had a couple of RGV's too.
Still have my 1992 750 WN... and loving it.
Had a GSXR750 K1...Loved it, and never forgotten this bike
I got my first big bike in 2008, a Suzuki Bandit 600, followed by a CBR600 in 2010. A friend moved house and temporarily didn't have space for his GSXR1000 K1. He trusted me to keep it for him and I took it out regularly. I quickly became addicted and once the bike went back to it's owner I started the hunt for my own GSXR1000.
It's hard to believe that was over 10 years ago but it used to be easy to get a load of sports bikes together for a ride back then, half of them seemed to be GSXRs with the occasional R6 or CBR600 thrown into the mix.
I sense that most people who rode back in the 2000's either had a GSXR or like you say, have a story or 2 about them.
The biking world has definitely changed a lot since back then and I personally think all for the better. It used to be quite tribal and divisive but these days people are happy to ride together whether you're on a Harley, a GS, a Hayabusa or a SV650, there generally seems to be less snobbery and more people just getting on with riding.
Sad that the GSXR isn't sold here but great that on the whole, we are all spoilt for choice like never before. There are dozens of amazing bikes for every rider to choose from now.
Brilliant vid, thanks for sharing the thoughts and memories..🤟
You are great! I just wanted you to know that. Great video, we love GSXRs here in Greece
I had a GSXR750WR.....had a great time in the 90's mixing it with the ZXR750's. Traded it in 95 for a 916 then an original R1 in 98...Lucky to be hooning in the best times of sports bikes and WSB
The K5 GSXR 1000 is the best because it is a very well designed balanced motorcycle that’s strong in all areas and it’s raw; no TC means it requires a rider with skills. Additionally, they’re reliable, low maintenance, parts and readily available, it uses ordinary fluids such as basic ethylene glycol coolant, and they’re relatively inexpensive to insure. It’s a great bike for around $5-6000 USD
I’m 67 and on my fourth gixer 1000 absolutely love them
I missed this one Mike,
I was riding a ZXR750L2 when the GSXR1000K2 arrived. I so wanted one but it was so far out of my reach.
Fast forward a-few years and I went through new models of ZX10R, Ducati 1199S but in 2018 I bought a mint GSXR1000K2 and I wasn’t disappointed. The hollow noise you describe is spot on!
It id a no nonsense performance machine.
There is an amazing glossy hard back book on the Suzuki motorcycle factory out there.
You read out my question not that long ago and that was mega thank you so much 😊
100% yes I would buy a new GSXR750 tomorrow if Suzuki brought it back. Will be interesting to see how well the R9 sells...
I also think if manufactures tweaked their best middle weight naked sports bikes by adding a Tuono style semi-fairing they would really fill the gap nicely left by the sports bikes no longer being produced. After all the only real criticism of these bikes being the lack of wind protection.
I've owned a K6 and an L1, loved them both. But truthfully that L1 always felt a little more special to me. Both were so easy to ride and work on. Easy cruising or frantic racing, the GSXRs did it all!
Absolutely loving this video , no surprise lol, my ole 90 750 has over 65,000 k on it and it still purrs , starts instantly and shifts smoother than any of my much newer bikes, and it just looks right from any angle .
I love my 750 k8 and totally agree.
Fantasy Thought..Suzuki bring out a new gsxr 750 with modern electronics, vvt and active suspension, triumph bring out Daytona 765 and mv update the f3 800 oh yeah, ktm do rc8 890 and Yamaha r9… how would you enjoy that group test?
Thanks, Neevesy - great channel and the content is spot on as always. I ride a 2012 750 and it’s hands down the best money I’ve ever spent. Does absolutely everything, as you say - I’m 6’3” and have the pegs on highest setting with no issues. Would just drop them down for touring - phenomenal piece of kit ❤
This was GSX-R heaven indeed, really enjoyed this video. My K5 750 is the best bike I've ever owned and I will never get rid of it seeing as they are a dying breed. With a quick shifter and a Brembo M/C it keeps up with any of the modern bikes, on the road anyways lol.
Hi Michael.
I have just bought a Suzuki gsxr1000 k5 it's actually been registered in 2006.
Finally got one of my dream bikes . It's to add to my little collection. 1978 Yamaha DT 175mx. Yamaha RD350LC 1981 .Suzuki TL 1000s. All are in great condition. I didn't really buy the gsxr1000 k5 as a top speed bike..the grunt and looks I am currently getting the gsxr1000 cleaned up and going over it. Next year I plan on using it. No rush. I also need to mentally prepare myself for the bike..but I want it as close to ready for the road as possible. New fork seals oil ,rear shock and linkage serviced.
Great information on this and other bikes . Keep up your great work and stay safe 👍
Kind regards kenny.
Great video, one of my favourites so far. Big fan of the GSXR range. Got a K7 750 last year and love it
Just come across you and awesome videos. I passed my test in 2021 October and had a gsxr600 k3 till July 2022 and got now a k8 1000 and she is mint with only 8k on clock.
Mid life crisis I think but the smiles is just awesome.
Wanted a Gsxr from a young age and wish I done bike test years ago now 😢
Great insight Neevesy. I used to roll my eyes at the 'I've been riding over 30yrs' crowd and think they couldn't see how good they had it. But time moves on and now I'm part of that crowd. I'm not convinced that even with the most technically brilliant bikes, we are riding in an era where we can genuinely enjoy them like the days of almost zero tech, lots of handling, plenty power (SP1's, Mille's, Gixxer K1 etc). In the UK anyway, with our poor roads, our changed attitude to speed, have the days of speed and handling as a main buying factor fallen down the list? Sales numbers might suggest so. I guess as an aging speed addict, I might also be looking back with rose tinted specs and can't see how good I have it?
Inspired by this video and other Neevesy videos on the 750 I've bought a 2023 750 and set it up as prescribed for dedicated track duty: K-tech suspension, down one tooth in the front sprocket (plus a gold chain), and a new Brembo master cylinder plus a few other minor mods. It's incredible! Neevesy, if you're ever in the California bay area and want to take it for a spin hit me up.
My dream bike!
I gotta say, I really like this type of format, you’re a natural at this Neevesey. 👍
I had a 750H and then an 1100K. Loved them both!
I have a k9 gsxr 750, bought it for 5800 a few months ago only had 3000 miles on it. Hard to tell its 15 years old by looking at it.
Funny thing with values theese days, i sold mine K9 10years ago for 5800 😅. Still regret it. Wonderful bike.
I could listen to this all day on a loop. I had a 2014 Gsxr 750 and a '13 1000, and I agree the 750 was more fun. Commuted on it, took it to the track, did tours on it, brilliant. The 1K felt like a pig in comparison but still lovely. I miss them both and now find myself perusing used 750 ads again...
thanks Michael again for you tips! Since last time I've started to apply more rear brake downhill and that has really helped me a lot to feel more relaxed...bye!
Neevsy. The K5 and K6 1000s were actually the same not K4 and K5 as you mentioned. I had K6 from new did 30,000 over 12 years on the same chain/sprockets and plugs. Yes I ought to have replaced more often but did maintain them fastidiously and it never let me down. TimR
Been a Yamaha man since I passed my test 18 years ago, (had a fazer600, XJ6 s and R1 over that time) but I'm picking up my first GSXR1000 L1 this week. Looking forward to the change and getting out on it at the weekend!!!
Never been a Gixxer Fan but I can appreciate them, owned a GP100 and an SV1000S, the only Suzukis I've had in 30+ bikes, but I can listen to Neevesy all night.
i had a k2 from new ,such a stable bike and the sound was awesome but looks so old fashioned now but the k5 ...yep i,d still buy one of those
750 all day. Love my W with upgrades, but for me the K5 is the ultimate
Thanks for this video. I bought a 2001 750 a few months before I grafuated high school. I raced a 2001 600, had a 2006 1000, and now at age 40 have the GSX-S1000GT. My lady has a 2007 750 down in our garage now and I even moon lighted as a Suzuki salesman right after college for a summer, so it's safe to say I'm a bit biased towards the GSX-R. I have a strange feeling that Suzuki is quietly developing a new GSX-R1000 to meet the latest and future Euro emissions standards. I pray that I'm right.
I would certainly buy a new and improved GSXR 750, they're doing very well in AMA with the M4 team, I've had more than a few from the 1993 WP to the final iteration L1, I still have two GSXR 1000s the K1 and an L7 but love the 750 and will buy another one at some point, just waiting for the right one to come up for sale. Carry on the great work, always good to listen to your videos.
Great stuff Neevesy. Used to own a gsxr750srad’97 circa 2019-2005. Great bike. Test rode a friend’s k1 750 back then and got super quick on our local favourite twisties. Now at 52, i still have a dream to own gixxer 750 which is rare in Malaysia. I am bikeless now after traded in my ‘13 z1000sx for multistrada 950 which i’ve sold in 2021. My only problem is gixxer 1000 is the only gixxer available instead of 750 but not sure if at 52 i still can handle a 200hp bike anymore.
Great video and personal insight. Keep them coming. 👍
I’ve had my K5 600 since 2006 and very much doubt I’ll ever get rid
When I purchased my 2019 BMW s1000r, I made my decision based on what the sales person said about the GSXR that, BMW looked at all of the bikes from the big 4 out of Japan, in its class and he said that BMW like the power delivery of the K5 engine from Suzuki, so I purchased my bike based on that information also in the North Eastern part of the US the insurance was 800.00 dollars cheaper for the BMW S1000r than a GSXR 600,750 OR 1000. And seeing you ride the BMW on the track, as you pass true sport bikes you help to seal the deal that you can have your cake and eat it too. Thanks keep the videos coming.
Loving the vids , I had a k1 k4 k7 l6 1000 loved them all, but my favourite was my srad 750 that was a lane scratcher ,need a special show on them 😊🏍👍
Great video Neevesy, recently sold my nice K4 GSXR600, was my first bike when i passed my test at the start of 2020, a 750 would have been ace but the 600 was fast enough for me, another thing about the 600/750 verses 1000 is the size of the bike, the K4/5 1000 is physically bigger than the 600/750, fine if you are a taller rider but at 5'7" i might have found the 1000 a struggle, now have a K6 Hayabusa but fit that perfect as the seat is only 31". Still fancy a 90's Gixxer 750 Slingshot.
I recently bought a 1000 L6. Beautiful bike in the MotoGP rep colours. However, i was actually looking for a clean 750 but couldnt find one. Ive always wanted a 750. Ive wanted to race a 750. It just seems to be the best package. Im still looking for a track 750. Thanks for the vids Neevsy!! yuo have always been the voice of reason in the biking world. Cheers mate!
Huge gsxr fan. Currently own a k4 1000 with a few mods. Had a k2 750 as my first big bike and I loved it. Regrettably sold it for a k6 vstrom 650 to do some adventuring and riding 2up with the wife and a year later sold it and bought my k4. We both prefer the gsxr even for 2up riding. I’ll never sell it, but I hope to buy a newer one - a my17 or newer would be nice
Spot on video . I’ve owned most of the carnations of Gsxr1000 and 750 in the last 22 years and agree theK5 was perfect balance. I currently own AL7 1000 and find that equally great for road riding. The closest to the Gsxr 750 in my opinion at present is the latest street triple RS , triumph have brought the fun factor back into the 3/4 litre ish engine size, that’s why I’ve just taken delivery of a new STRS and the bike is brilliant. Hopefully this may ignite a sports oriented rebirth. Cheers
I have a k4 750 for track changed the sprockets-1+2 and a couple of other bits and is as said very involving and more than enough plus shows up many bikes it shouldn't 😉
Loving your channel, keep up the good work.
Kind to the licence, I'd say you could lose the licence in 3rd gear of any Gixxer 😂 nice vid Neeve
2nd😂
Great video watched a engine rebuild vid of a 750 K1-K4 gsxr and it had done near 100000 miles didn’t even require a rebore lol needed all new valves and rings testimony to great design great oils etc ( perhaps a sympathetic rider lol) keep em coming cheers from NZ
Brilliant video great work on my second gsxr 750
Current model L6 2016 won’t be letting this one go have a passion for these great bikes
Love the throw back vids and gsxr content , started riding 3 years ago a k3 sv650s which I love but currently hunting for a gsxr 600 preferably an L3 in the red/white scheme having ridden an L5, family influenced heavily with gsxrs my uncle has a gsxr 1000 k5 he bought new the other has a K8 750 I’ve ridden and love along with 600s and 1100s. Cork ireland 👍
Sold my 2013 25th Anniversary model GSXR-1000 in 2019. Only had 5,675 KM's from new. Most comfortable litre sportbike I've ever owned but highly impractical. Cheers.
I have the GSX-S 750 and thinking about making the step up. R1 was always my dream bike, that is 2014 and older. But the GSX-R750 seems like a much more sensible and honestly better choice for street riding. I really have lots of fun going thru the gears and reving up that downtuned K5 750 in my naked. While the R1 does 180km/h in 1st and that seem bit excessive :D
i don't remember noticing the glasses before. these are gigantic.
Thank you for one more video good sir !
Brillannt video !! I Currently own a k6 1000 I bought recently and it happens too be my 4th k5/k6 gsxr 1000!! I love them , i do agree with the 750s as iv had two gsxr 750 track bikes and without a doubt they are easier too throw into bends but IMHO for a roadbike the k5/k6 1000 cannot be beaten. My last o was I had for 4 years , sold it bought an r1 , sold that bought a zx10 sold that , took a year break and back with a k6 1000 that I genuinely will never sell ! Really love the videos and advice keep them coming !
Love my GSXR K1 1000, she is an absolute beauty, the work I have done a lot of work on mine from the ground up, brakes, engine, fairings etc.. she is Rizla Red, and is mint, pull up at a bike gathering and everyone around comes over to have a look, the K1 1OOO is still a beautiful looking machine, and in red she stands out big time. Mine is on my channel if anyone is interested seeing what she looks like.
Had the K4 thou all tricked up. Wicked machine
Great insights Neevsey
thankx
Feature length!!! Loved it. 👍👏 What were you and your brother like as kids? Were you both into bikes at a very young age? Take care as always, Neevesy.
still have an 05 blade that was marked down as brand new left-over. Could have bought and was leaning heavily towards the updated 2006 GSXR 750 for the same price: $9500 before tax, USD. No regrets coming from an SV650 but I truly loved the integrated directionals of the Suzuki's tail and this recap confirms it would have been more than enough all these years. My good buddy looked me hard in the eyes and said, "Get the thousand. You'll never need another bike." So I ended up with the Honda to rival his RC51. Be careful who you hang around with. lol. I am grateful for these videos and personal reflections from a motorcycling icon. Cheers from San Diego. I'd be honored to host ya for a mountain to desert ride if you're ever out this way. Of course you'd need a hotel, the wife has no idea who you are!
As a former Blade owner the problem with a bike that can break the national speed limit in first gear is what to do with the other 5 gears. To put it another way it just made me slower than my previous CBR600 until I decided to get on circuit. So California Superbike School is the next step...
Neevsy is the best,, regards from NYC brother!
Great vid as ever. Loved it & thanks for answering my question. My GSXR750K6 was the best bike I ever had & I would buy a new one if they bought it back in a heart beat. Desperate for a new one in 2024 but not holding my breath as I think you're right sadly. It's time has probably passed. Although the only doubt in my mind is if the rumoured R9 did well, would it change Suzuki's mind I wonder?
But then they would build it on the 8S platform I would think. Unfortunately
@@fj9987 Agreed. Way more chance they'll be a GSX8R before there's a new GSXR750. I also think they'll definitely be a GSX8GT with a upgraded rear subframe etc in the not too distant future as well.
My K3 thou has over 50,000 and is still a proper little weapon.
Great video.... Slow to the party as I've just bought a K5 1000 a couple of weeks ago, mint condition with 17000 miles on clock... Love it.. So easy to ride.. I also have a Kawa ZX10R D7F (2007) which I also adore.. So far I'd say the K5 is the better road bike, the ZX10R better trackday bike.
I had 2 K6 750’s 😢😢😢. Early 1000 were lunch on the track and the contemporary 1000’s could not shake us!!!
Hopefully, picking up a 2023 GSXR750 tomorrow. Miss the 2003 750 I bought brand new, so nostalgia is driving this purchase, lol
Spent 2013 Thundersport season chasing naked GSXR750s. It was a tough season! Now have a 2016 GSXS1000 on full Ktech, Quickshifter, Yoshi. I’d say it’s the perfect road bike! Looked at the S750 but it’s just not a naked R750. It’s very budget. The GSXS1000 seems closer to its K5 roots. Just a little milder. And once the budget Suspension is changed. It transforms the bike.
It's funny, my father owned an sv1000 and dl1000 vstrom back to back in the mid 2000, and they were stonking machines. Beautiful engines with really solid power. Where did it all go? That original vstrom mechanically isn't far off the current one!
We can still buy the 750 and 1000 here in New Zealand. The 750 is still the lo4 with different colours every year
Been really enjoying these videos - brings back a lot of memories so thank you. I know it's a bit off topic (but still Suzuki related!) but what's your opinion on the TL1000R? I've always hankered after one and would love to hear your thoughts.
I sometimes think you have so much knowledge that it needs to be put into a book at some point. Then when we are all 75 and on electric triumphs we can have it on our coffee table and tell the youngsters about the days of noise and dirt
Great channel, really enjoy your honest and informative appraisals of the bikes makes me want to buy GSX-R750. Is there no scope for a top bike TV show that would be cool with tour routes for bikes, reviews etc.
Tks. much.
