My car was rear ended. My only transportation has been a motorcycle since 07/2023. Currently I ride a 2022 GSXR 750 with a full M4 exhaust system and the ECU was sent to Chris Moore/Moore Mafia. I am 54 years old, a ton of injuries from Boxing/Kickboxing/Wrestling/MMA…all Of which I have done as I have been a life long martial artist since 12. I am 5’9 and 178 lbs, and I am in pretty good shape which helps. I try and use all legs and core to keep my hands weightless. This allows me to ride for 4+ hours no problem. My Gixxer 750 is my daily ride. Even in the rain…which is when B mode helps a lot.
For those that don’t know, the foot pegs/ rear set’s are adjustable down or back about an inch with an couple Allen bolts. I’m 6’2” and that’s literally the first thing I do when I buy Gsxr 600/750’s, it makes a huge difference in comfort
Interesting. I’m about 6’4 210.. just had a 2018 gsx 750 for the past few years. Traded it last month for a z900. Figured the more upright seating position would be more comfortable. I was wrong. I hate it. Ugh So now I’m trying to determine if maybe I should just get a sport bike and see how being more bent over feels. Gixxer brah is apparently 6’5 and somehow doesn’t dwarf the bike when I see him on video. But watching these videos, ppl usually say it’s small and tall ppl probably wouldn’t be a good fit on them. Knowing you can move the foot pegs gives me a little more hope that maybe I can get on one of these and not be cramped.
Just got a 2024 750. I'm 6'2" 190lbs riding in WNC and this feels great, thus far I've found the seat position to be quite pleasant. I do find myself resting on my wrists more than I should though I'll probably get better the more I ride. The tank does help recoup during a ride as an armrest. I've not noticed any notable vibrations. Coming from an ADV, this has been brilliant!
@Dustin, I have the 600, same year, same color, same brakes. Both brakes feel much better over time (500 miles+). Just be careful on those first few rides, especially with the rears as Chase mentioned.
Some don't remember that the 750 class was the premier superbike class in the 80's to 90's. Superbike racing was 750, and Matt Mladin won a bunch of his AMA championships with the Gixser 750. When the price between 600 and 750 became close, sales of 750 decreased and superbike racing went 1000 and manufacturers stopped making 750, except Suzuki.
@@remsangachhakchhuak1738 Could be because of "engine tax" in certain areas. Idk how it works with motorcycles, but Japan taxed/taxes based on engine size. Maybe it just made it kinda obsolete, but just a guess.
Oc: One of my every day bikes is the 2012 GSXR600. They are very streetable to me. Moreso than the r6 and even the CBR I used to ride. The GSXR is like the Lotus Elise of motorcycles. No frills, just speed and a good mechanical feeling. Tech is cool, but there is a nice niche for a raw sport bike too.
I have a 2018 GSX-R750 as a dedicated trackbike. Swapping to stainless steel brake lines and a Brembo RCS radial master cylinder transformed the bike into the best trackday bike that I have ever owned. I "downsized" from a YZF-R1 and an Aprilia, and I do not regret the decision. The 750 is easier to ride, easier on tires, simply more fun, and I have been faster on the 750 (same tracks) despite less power, less electronic help, and being an older platform. Thanks for this video!
Picked up a 2023 GSX-R750 (my 4th Gixxer 750) 2 weeks ago. There is something special about this bike. Not a fan of the headlight styling, and it doesn't have ABS or traction control, but it is the most comfortable and usable (power-wise) sport bike I've ever ridden and the induction sound of this bike is music to the ears. I learned to ride before ABS and traction control, so I just use common sense and wrist control to keep the rubber side down.
Great job as always. I bought a 2020 750 and will say, I have to agree with the brakes, but after adding new braided brake lines and better pads, she stops 100% better.
I was thinking brake pads but now that you mention it the braided lines are an excellent idea. 👍 Thinking about a 2023 in the white. Got to see what they will give me for my 2008 MV Agusta 312R though. The MV is one hell of a bike but at 73 I need something a little more sane. 🤡
Nothing wrong with the standard brakes. If the pads are in good condition, the fluid is fresh and no air in the system it will work way better then the rider can operate them The skill in stopping better/faster is the rider not the system. The stock system is more than capable of throwing you over the handlebars!
I sold my 13’ GSXR 600 back in 2020, regretted it ever sense. I absolutely loved that motorcycle. It was super Street-able, I’m 5’11”. My knees would cramp up after riding for an hour or so but you can live with that. I’m looking at purchasing a 750 this summer. I already know I’ll love it and that extra 30 horse power will be choice
I have been riding 1000cc superbikes for 25 years, but I love my 2017 GSXR750 more than all of them combined! I will never sell it. Please please Suzuki, keep building them :-)
My first bike was a 2020 750 gixx. I just bought the 2023 750, and now I'm having a little buyers remorse. I'm so used to/comfortable on the 750 that I want more power and speed. So I am considering getting the 1k gixx. Having ridden both for so long, is it worth it to get the 1k? I've heard lots of 1k riders saying they actually prefer the 750 because you can flick it around so much easier than the litre bikes. Is this true, and is it that big a difference? Like, will I really not he able to quickly maneuver the 1k around? Will it throw me off of it?
Got an 2021 750 installed braided brake lines and sintered pads, replaced rear shock as the standard one ties it’s self in nots on bumpy roads. Great Corning machine easy to use and change and brilliant at the track.
Honestly. I always wanted a 600/750 and it was the reason I got into sportbikes. My best friend was given his dad's 600 and I remember being so damn jealous. Nowadays, I am about to buy an RS 660 because this bike just HASN'T changed at all in a decade +. I really truly hope Suzuki doesn't kill this bike and finally goes for it, for at least 1 more generation. This bike especially the 750 is just so iconic!
It’s within 10hp of the panigale v2 and like 30lbs or something lighter, probably perfect for most riders. Just wish Suzuki would update the bike a little with a new look and better electronics.
OC. Never owned a “super sport”. Currently ride a 2021 Tuono V4. It’s disguised as a sport touring and about as comfortable as a bike of this type can be. It’s a rocket ship and I love it.
@@MegaTechpc nice! I was never a fan of the Japanese super bike power bands. Don’t enjoy peak power without the grunt down low. Big fan of V4 and V2 grunt from Italian bikes.
@@Metalution I was the opposite; loved the scream of an I4 at 15k rpm (sounds like a formula 1 car), but now I can truly appreciate both sounds. My RSV4 just sounds so ballsy just throttle-blipping in the parking lot lol!
Did u ever think you would still be on a supersport after 40? I seriously thought I would be riding cruisers by now... NOPE!!! bike keep the soul YOUNG FOREVER. ride safe brother
@@waynehart78 better now than never..takes a lot of courage to mount these machines..I started at 25..rode till 28.. took 9 years off , had a daughter..got back on in 2019, will ride till my last breath.. some ppl are meant to be on bikes..I'm one of those ppl..rain,wind,traffic,etc,don't care I'm still gonna ride..be safe
You know, I friggin love my 750 for all the reasons you laid out. But my BIGGEST problem is that it hasn't evolved in 20 years! My 2014 is exactly like your 2022 first ride. And that's just like the 2011 when they introduced this model (fact check needed). So a purist might idolize it, but I continue to evolve as a rider and the tried and true Gixxer 750 is awesome, perfect, but old news. Sure, I'm probably exactly the person that is ready for the madness that a liter bike has to offer, but on the other hand, I'm commuting this beast. Way more than I need but as much as I can respect, which is an important, life-saving distinction. I have decades of experience and I, personally, think you must have for such a profound machine. That's why we ride. It is liberating. There is nothing like it and you have to experience it!
What needs to evolve when GSX-R's still blow most bikes off the road/track, including ones with more tech? As someone else noted this is almost the same power as a Panigale V2 and 30 less pounds and is more comfortable and usable for the street at that with smoother power. Now, it sure doesn't look as good as a Panigale V2.... but price tag + GSX-R's go 100K miles with regular maintenance and minor repairs. The Ducati ain't doing that.
Thats why its so good. Its as good as it gets. Suzuki know this and keep producing for the rider that knows it’s the best no frills value for money motorcycle on the planet
Scootch back in the seat, bend the arms(unlock them) and use your legs(squeeze the tank on stops) and your core muscles to take pressure off the bars and you will have much more fun on supersports. Locking your arms makes you lose all control of bar inputs and can put you into dangerous situations.
Great review. I ride an 07 GSXR600. Seems like the bike is as good as ever. I have a 40 mile commute. Works just fine. I'm sure the 750 has a bit more punch though. Would love a newer one but a paid bike that works is pretty much gold.
Couldnt disagree more about the dash. Having a huge and configurable TFT display on a bike is such a breath of fresh air to me. Seeing an analog cluster on a bike these days just seems so out-dated to me anymore.
@@MegaTechpc Well lucky for you every other bike made in the last few years (besides some cruisers) feels the need to put all the digital stuff on it and those of us who like the analog dash have next to no options.
@@MLDRBRY Plenty of great used bikes out there with analog dashes. Hell, just about every mid-2000's sportbike is still amazing and they all have analog gauges...
@@MegaTechpc Yea but in the future they are going to be rarer and rarer. Not to mention if you want to get a new one that you know hasnt been abused by the previous owner
@@MLDRBRY Just wait til they take gasoline engines away from us altogether. I'm much more concerned about that. I dont wanna ride some stupid electronic bike (and how would analog gauges look like on one of them???)
The bike I really regret I had to sell during covid due to financial reasons. I absolutely loved it. The only thing I was missing was the fuel gauge as mine was a 2014 model. It was easier to ride this than a lot of "middleweight " beginner bikes like the CB650. Better breaks, better suspension, very well balanced, lightweight, flickible. An absolute gem
The reason it doesn't have a C mode is because of that cable-actuated throttle you liked so much. It's hard for the programmers to remove that much power without giving less throttle (like the servo actuated throttles allow)
Love your videos! This one actually inspired me to walk into Mountain Motorsports in Roswell this week and put a deposit down on a GSX-R750. Can’t wait to pick it up in a couple weeks!
I just bought a 2011 750 which is exactly the same bike. 3600 orig miles one owner. They hold their value because no one wants to sell their 750 because it’s so good. The bike has adjustable rear sets from the factory. I like the fact it doesn’t have ride my wire throttle , no ABS , no traction control ect. Just a raw super sport. Yes I feel it’s buzzy especially on engine braking.
OC: got a 21' zx6r ride it to work a few times a week and ride it around the city and backroads on the weekends. Where there's a will there's a way, lol it took getting use to coming from a naked going to a sport touring and then a supersport but I've gotten used to it and it's pretty comfortable for me. Then again the zx6r seems the most comfortable compared to the other 600 bikes out there.
That’s a beauty and one the bikes i’ve always wanted to ride on track. Skilled, experienced riders say a lot of good things about it. I think it’s one of those Goldilocks (“juuuuuuuuust right”) bikes. I don’t love fake carbon fiber (why?) but i’m very glad Suzuki hasn’t messed up the integrity of this bike and its price by adding a bunch of tech to make it seem like an RSV4 or Panigale.
It is Ducati and Aprilla who have been chasing Suzuki since 1962 and the TT. Japanese bikes are the best, the best technology wrapped in a package affordable and smacks Ducati and Aprilla. If you can’t handle it yourself you should be on it. All that tech does is make people think that they ride better then they actually do. No electronics is for the real rider, old school, analog, pure riding! Stay safe
@@drasticthompson1995 so refreshing to hear there's ppl that still feel this way u ain't never lie wen u say that tech shit makes ppl think they can ride an really cant
I have a 2018 GSXR 750 and love it. It's always been my holy grale bike to have and I'm so glad I got one new in 2018. I still have it and ride it as much as I can. Mine black and silver and I think it looks grate to. Good review. And I agree with just about everything you said. Thank you!
OC: daily rider GSXR750, 2007. Threw on matching blue front/rear break lines, CBR clutch and front brake levers, fender eliminator, Scorpio alarm, zero gravity dark smoke windscreen, halo fuel cap, power commander, tuned, hid lights, quick shifter, etc etc etc. I love her and can’t imagine ever giving her up lol.
Good luck with that Scorpio alarm. I had one on my R3. I washed the bike and the alarm caught on fire. I had to rip it out in a hurry and wound up damaging some factory wires. In the ensuing weeks I was able to repair the wires and was looking into the newest Scorpio alarm and someone stole my bike.
This is why I love my GSXR750 or why it is the greatest streetbike ever: cable throttle, fully manual (no ABS, traction control, riders aid), smoothest wheelie machine, best looking bike when the headlight is on (use white bright LED bulbs over stock), sound really good when letting off the throttle (see on my channel), integrated rear turning indicators, most comfortable supersport, super fun, and 750cc.
The R6 is probably the worst of all the supersport 600's for the road but suzuki is probably one of the best for road riding for comfort and engine power,, kawasaki and honda are both good on road too but a bit more extreme. the 750 is a 600 on steroids and damn good fun tho
The gsxr is the only sportbike I can ride for 3hrs+ and not have to see a chiropractor...lol.. Suzuki have a cult following..not everyone cares for the latest electronics..I'm keeping my 750 till a new model for a whhhhhile..cheers bro
@@motorcycleartist i agree about not caring for electronics i had the funds to get a newer model bike with electrics and i thought no thank you so i opted for a 06 gsxr 1000 no electronics apart from fuel injection all raw
The 750 is the best all around bike you can buy, and it's all anyone would ever need. HOWEVER, it needs to be updated with modern electronics. LED lighting, ABS, Traction and a quickshifter with auto-blip, from the factory. Other than paint and stickers, it's been 12 years since that bike for an update, and it shows when you ride it back to back with modern bikes... I respect it for what it is, and I have owned a few of them over the years, but I wouldn't even consider another one till they get on board with modern electronics. ABS for today's roads is a must, and at the very least, a factory quickshifter, and the display looks like it's from the 1990's... Come on Suzuki, you did it with the 1000, we know you can do it for the 750/600...
I'm 6'1", and have a 2005 GSX-R 750. And it is a fantastic overall bike for power and torque. The 750 pulls the entire power band from low to high! A fantastic bike to ride! And way more manageable and fun at any speed as well! I may never give it up (unless for another 750 of course).
Everytime I think of getting another bike, I go on a ride and immediately change my mind.. bike is BLAST TO RIDE..soooo light compare to the competition and fasssst as hell till u get to 155.. a beast!!
@@motorcycleartist I am the exact same way! Just entertaining the idea of something a little different...a small twist of the throttle and I'm brought back in!! I can't leave. I won't leave. 🏍
With how transparent you were with your add and what it provides is content i winched the whole thing and will continue to do so if it pays for these amazing camera shots. Keep up the amazing work
GSXR’s are easily the best sounding bikes. I love my FZ-07 Akrapovic exhaust, but my GSXR 600 exhaust note holds a special place in my heart. I do wish they redesigned the bike like they redesigned the GSXR 1000. It’s very outdated for 2022. My 2011 GSXR 600 looks exactly the same as a 2022 GSXR 600/750. I don’t care much about the tech. All I really want is cruise control and a quick shifter. So I basically just want shit for convenience.
I own a new Ducati Panigale V4 and brother owns 2018 Gsx-r 750. I absolutely love riding the Gsx-r!!! She brings so much joy into riding and is sexy. Going to get one as a pure track bike. 😍
OC: the only bike I currently have is a 2021 zx6r and it is not terrible for the riding I do around town. I wish I had more twisty roads near me, but it is still fun to blast around on.
I daily the 2021 version of that bike. It’s the same bike - it hasn’t changed since 2011. Thousand miles a month, rain or shine. It’s the best super sport for the street.
OC: I love a supersport. I'd still be riding a Daytona 675R if not for my brother crashing it. I do enjoy the more comfortable ride of my MT07. But if I could find another 675R in great condition I'd buy it on the spot.
OC: I still have my SS but I only ride it on weekends and soon only on the track. I still thoroughly enjoy it for its minimal tech and throttle cable. It's weird because I'm usually all for bleeding edge tech but I like my bikes simple.
I was looking at a r6 but my dad strongly told me to get this exact bike because he rode the same gsxr (not the 22 version obviously) and he's 100% on board with me riding in a few years
'Never Change Suzuki' Nothing has changed on that bike for the last 15 years???? Looks identical to a circa 2008 GSXR600 I had. Same headlight, dash, body....
So this bike has 38 miles on it, doesn't the breakin still need to be done or is that a myth? I'm breaking in my new mt07 doing what the dealership told me, stay under 6k and run it up and down the rev range.
Big companies are forever trying to sell us expensive bling. I wish they would produce a much cheaper version without 'track fodder' rider aids which prevent new riders from learning to control the bike, and without the daft and expensive 'faux-carbon'. With £2000, there's always a nice condition, low milage GSXR 750 SRAD-k1-k2-k3 multi-purpose sports bike. Great and informative vid--ta.🏍🏍🏍🏍
I am 54 and I just recently got a 2022 GSXR 750 and love the bike. Tank grips really help and make riding less fatiguing. I think the bike is super comfortable for me at 5’10 and 180 lbs. I can joy ride for hours in total comfort. I have a full M4 exhaust and the ECU was flashed by Chris Moore/Moore Mafia. It’s a ton of fun, and if it’s an older 1000 I have no problem keeping up.☝🏻🏍️👊🏻🦾🫶🏻🔥🙏🏻
is this bike discontinued or not ? or is it only discontiuned on some specific places like europe and so is it getting updated or is the same as 2011 or smthing
OC: My daily is a 1200RT, no super-sport. But it's all good. The parking guard at my office says I lean the RT over further than the super-sport guys when I pull into the lot. So it's the spirit.
I have the 2014 model and it's EXACTLY the same as this "2022" model :D I've been commuting on it here in London, UK and I've been riding it outside town. It's been nothing but amazing. Haven't had to fix anything on it in all these 8 years. Just been lubing my chain and putting petrol in (aside from the initial mandatory services). Looking at upgrading to a 1000 though, has always been my dream/goal.
Having frwy commuted on sportbikes for 25 years I still don't trust myself with panic stops, so I wish suzuki would add anti-lock brakes. As for the zillion electronic settings on my R1 - I never touch 'em. That's for track riders. Just the A and B settings are plenty. I never even used B in my 2012 gsxr 600, even if I got stuck in the rain. I like the fake carbon fiber - it hides scuff marks. None of the Japanese bikes I've owned have the brakes like the Aprilia or Ducati - those things will throw your ass into yesterday. The grunt of a liter bike is nice, but no prob, just throw some revs at it and even my gsxr 600 was plenty fast. So I would be tempted with this 750. It seems ideal.
Just an update for someone else that has my height: it fits! You can adjust the pegs around 13mm. Thx to that my legs fitted perfectly. Very nice bike however the one I test drove has been racing a lot so i didnt buy it. Again nice video!
I was in 1000 for quite a long time and aim for the 750. It's not all about power actually, it's all about the rideability. Fuel prices are also in a record high so... lol
I am planning on upgrading later this year, I was looking for either an r6 for the looks, a 636 for the torque or maybe this one! just moved on from riding a 300
I feel that GXRS 750’s are like your favorite pair of Jordan 1’s… every release is a new color but the same shoe. Watched this video and learned nothing new 😂 I have a 2016 just to say. Anywho... What sport/sport touring bike do you suggest for a 6’3 rider?
I have k5 750 I just picked up , always wanted a one. Did a shorty yoshimura exhaust and k&n air filter and about to get it Dyno tuned to make sure I'm not running lean and get the most power.
OC - Huge Gixxer fan, always been always will. What's holding me back from getting the 750 though is the competition. In Canada the 750 is about $14k new, 2022 MT-09 closer to $13k. Different bikes yeah ok, still two wheels and an engine. SS vs Naked. Tech vs Mech. Hard to decide. Gonna wait for the roads to clean up and test out how good that MT really is.
Working at a dealership having ridden both, the streetability of the MT is superior, but you unfortunately have to look at the same atrocity. The GSX750R is certainly still streetable, and at speed or on highways slices through wind issue free. Overall I'd take the looks, speed and reliability of the GSXR. It will run 100k miles without a single issue. Yamaha has been having recalls as of late. Get it on a track and you'll be chewing people up and spitting them out.

I just changed my brakes. Waiting for the braided lines to come it. Can’t wait.
I was thinking brake pads but now that you mention it the braided lines are an excellent idea. 👍
Thinking about a 2023 in the white. Got to see what they will give me for my 2008 MV Agusta 312R though.
The MV is one hell of a bike but at 73 I need something a little more sane. 🤡
Thx for the tip!
Nothing wrong with the standard brakes. If the pads are in good condition, the fluid is fresh and no air in the system it will work way better then the rider can operate them
The skill in stopping better/faster is the rider not the system. The stock system is more than capable of throwing you over the handlebars!
Link to pads & lines? Thanks
I sold my 13’ GSXR 600 back in 2020, regretted it ever sense. I absolutely loved that motorcycle. It was super Street-able, I’m 5’11”. My knees would cramp up after riding for an hour or so but you can live with that. I’m looking at purchasing a 750 this summer. I already know I’ll love it and that extra 30 horse power will be choice
Australia?
I have been riding 1000cc superbikes for 25 years, but I love my 2017 GSXR750 more than all of them combined! I will never sell it. Please please Suzuki, keep building them :-)
When riding does it feel heavier than a 600 or lighter than a 1000
@@MrFoxfire510 lighter than a 1000, closer to 600 in lightness and feel
My first bike was a 2020 750 gixx. I just bought the 2023 750, and now I'm having a little buyers remorse. I'm so used to/comfortable on the 750 that I want more power and speed. So I am considering getting the 1k gixx. Having ridden both for so long, is it worth it to get the 1k? I've heard lots of 1k riders saying they actually prefer the 750 because you can flick it around so much easier than the litre bikes. Is this true, and is it that big a difference? Like, will I really not he able to quickly maneuver the 1k around? Will it throw me off of it?
Got an 2021 750 installed braided brake lines and sintered pads, replaced rear shock as the standard one ties it’s self in nots on bumpy roads. Great Corning machine easy to use and change and brilliant at the track.
Honestly. I always wanted a 600/750 and it was the reason I got into sportbikes. My best friend was given his dad's 600 and I remember being so damn jealous. Nowadays, I am about to buy an RS 660 because this bike just HASN'T changed at all in a decade +. I really truly hope Suzuki doesn't kill this bike and finally goes for it, for at least 1 more generation. This bike especially the 750 is just so iconic!
It’s within 10hp of the panigale v2 and like 30lbs or something lighter, probably perfect for most riders. Just wish Suzuki would update the bike a little with a new look and better electronics.
The panigales are overhyped and overpriced especially with their constant overheating problems
@@HairFollicle some channel taken an 15 years old 1000 gixer against a paningale v4 on the track and the oldie whipped it.... yep overhyped
@@HairFollicle just buy both
Or get a panigale 899 for 7k USD
@@HairFollicle I can already tell you have never owned a Ducati or ridden one …
OC. Never owned a “super sport”. Currently ride a 2021 Tuono V4. It’s disguised as a sport touring and about as comfortable as a bike of this type can be. It’s a rocket ship and I love it.
I love my RSV4! Just nuts bikes!
@@MegaTechpc nice! I was never a fan of the Japanese super bike power bands. Don’t enjoy peak power without the grunt down low. Big fan of V4 and V2 grunt from Italian bikes.
@@Metalution I was the opposite; loved the scream of an I4 at 15k rpm (sounds like a formula 1 car), but now I can truly appreciate both sounds. My RSV4 just sounds so ballsy just throttle-blipping in the parking lot lol!

You know, I friggin love my 750 for all the reasons you laid out. But my BIGGEST problem is that it hasn't evolved in 20 years! My 2014 is exactly like your 2022 first ride. And that's just like the 2011 when they introduced this model (fact check needed). So a purist might idolize it, but I continue to evolve as a rider and the tried and true Gixxer 750 is awesome, perfect, but old news. Sure, I'm probably exactly the person that is ready for the madness that a liter bike has to offer, but on the other hand, I'm commuting this beast. Way more than I need but as much as I can respect, which is an important, life-saving distinction. I have decades of experience and I, personally, think you must have for such a profound machine. That's why we ride. It is liberating. There is nothing like it and you have to experience it!
What needs to evolve when GSX-R's still blow most bikes off the road/track, including ones with more tech? As someone else noted this is almost the same power as a Panigale V2 and 30 less pounds and is more comfortable and usable for the street at that with smoother power. Now, it sure doesn't look as good as a Panigale V2.... but price tag + GSX-R's go 100K miles with regular maintenance and minor repairs. The Ducati ain't doing that.
@@englishsteel-nz6im Aye, gotta agree. Been practicing on my stepdads 2000 GSXR750. It's aged extraordinarily well at only 35k miles
the 2011 is the same as current
Thats why its so good. Its as good as it gets. Suzuki know this and keep producing for the rider that knows it’s the best no frills value for money motorcycle on the planet
Just bought a 2018 one recently, beautiful bike love it
Scootch back in the seat, bend the arms(unlock them) and use your legs(squeeze the tank on stops) and your core muscles to take pressure off the bars and you will have much more fun on supersports. Locking your arms makes you lose all control of bar inputs and can put you into dangerous situations.
I remember warm spring day back in 1998...me on my 750. Miss those times so much.
Great review. I ride an 07 GSXR600. Seems like the bike is as good as ever. I have a 40 mile commute. Works just fine. I'm sure the 750 has a bit more punch though. Would love a newer one but a paid bike that works is pretty much gold.
That gixxer whine never gets old!
I like the fact that it doesn't have a bunch of technology and doesn't have a giant TFT. The tachometer is way cooler, in my opinion.
Couldnt disagree more about the dash. Having a huge and configurable TFT display on a bike is such a breath of fresh air to me. Seeing an analog cluster on a bike these days just seems so out-dated to me anymore.
@@MegaTechpc Well lucky for you every other bike made in the last few years (besides some cruisers) feels the need to put all the digital stuff on it and those of us who like the analog dash have next to no options.
@@MLDRBRY Plenty of great used bikes out there with analog dashes. Hell, just about every mid-2000's sportbike is still amazing and they all have analog gauges...
@@MegaTechpc Yea but in the future they are going to be rarer and rarer. Not to mention if you want to get a new one that you know hasnt been abused by the previous owner
@@MLDRBRY Just wait til they take gasoline engines away from us altogether. I'm much more concerned about that. I dont wanna ride some stupid electronic bike (and how would analog gauges look like on one of them???)
They need to start upgrading the tech on their 600 and 750s. Similar to the cbr600rr that the us didn’t get.
They keep the tech at a minimum because…. We dont want it.
The bike I really regret I had to sell during covid due to financial reasons. I absolutely loved it. The only thing I was missing was the fuel gauge as mine was a 2014 model. It was easier to ride this than a lot of "middleweight " beginner bikes like the CB650. Better breaks, better suspension, very well balanced, lightweight, flickible. An absolute gem
I got this same 2022 750........I love it so much!
The reason it doesn't have a C mode is because of that cable-actuated throttle you liked so much. It's hard for the programmers to remove that much power without giving less throttle (like the servo actuated throttles allow)
It has a real throttle
I have this bike. I love it. Don’t need more wouldn’t accept less. Perfect bike
Love your videos! This one actually inspired me to walk into Mountain Motorsports in Roswell this week and put a deposit down on a GSX-R750. Can’t wait to pick it up in a couple weeks!
I just bought a 2011 750 which is exactly the same bike. 3600 orig miles one owner. They hold their value because no one wants to sell their 750 because it’s so good. The bike has adjustable rear sets from the factory. I like the fact it doesn’t have ride my wire throttle , no ABS , no traction control ect. Just a raw super sport. Yes I feel it’s buzzy especially on engine braking.
OC: got a 21' zx6r ride it to work a few times a week and ride it around the city and backroads on the weekends. Where there's a will there's a way, lol it took getting use to coming from a naked going to a sport touring and then a supersport but I've gotten used to it and it's pretty comfortable for me. Then again the zx6r seems the most comfortable compared to the other 600 bikes out there.
Love this bike,is perfect for a old school guy like me,this is why I love my zx7 r.
Love the late 90's ZX7's! Beautiful bikes!
I still miss my 2001 zx7r. 😥
A third gen is on the horizon for me,first gen is just weird how the intake get on top of the gas tank ,for smaller riders is bit tricky to ride them.
That’s a beauty and one the bikes i’ve always wanted to ride on track. Skilled, experienced riders say a lot of good things about it. I think it’s one of those Goldilocks (“juuuuuuuuust right”) bikes. I don’t love fake carbon fiber (why?) but i’m very glad Suzuki hasn’t messed up the integrity of this bike and its price by adding a bunch of tech to make it seem like an RSV4 or Panigale.
It is Ducati and Aprilla who have been chasing Suzuki since 1962 and the TT. Japanese bikes are the best, the best technology wrapped in a package affordable and smacks Ducati and Aprilla. If you can’t handle it yourself you should be on it. All that tech does is make people think that they ride better then they actually do. No electronics is for the real rider, old school, analog, pure riding! Stay safe
@@drasticthompson1995 so refreshing to hear there's ppl that still feel this way u ain't never lie wen u say that tech shit makes ppl think they can ride an really cant

I have a 2018 GSXR 750 and love it. It's always been my holy grale bike to have and I'm so glad I got one new in 2018. I still have it and ride it as much as I can. Mine black and silver and I think it looks grate to. Good review. And I agree with just about everything you said. Thank you!
OC: daily rider GSXR750, 2007. Threw on matching blue front/rear break lines, CBR clutch and front brake levers, fender eliminator, Scorpio alarm, zero gravity dark smoke windscreen, halo fuel cap, power commander, tuned, hid lights, quick shifter, etc etc etc. I love her and can’t imagine ever giving her up lol.
Good luck with that Scorpio alarm. I had one on my R3. I washed the bike and the alarm caught on fire. I had to rip it out in a hurry and wound up damaging some factory wires. In the ensuing weeks I was able to repair the wires and was looking into the newest Scorpio alarm and someone stole my bike.
This is why I love my GSXR750 or why it is the greatest streetbike ever: cable throttle, fully manual (no ABS, traction control, riders aid), smoothest wheelie machine, best looking bike when the headlight is on (use white bright LED bulbs over stock), sound really good when letting off the throttle (see on my channel), integrated rear turning indicators, most comfortable supersport, super fun, and 750cc.
Gsxr-750 my first bike , great bike 🏍🏍
The R6 is probably the worst of all the supersport 600's for the road but suzuki is probably one of the best for road riding for comfort and engine power,, kawasaki and honda are both good on road too but a bit more extreme. the 750 is a 600 on steroids and damn good fun tho
The gsxr is the only sportbike I can ride for 3hrs+ and not have to see a chiropractor...lol.. Suzuki have a cult following..not everyone cares for the latest electronics..I'm keeping my 750 till a new model for a whhhhhile..cheers bro
@@motorcycleartist i agree about not caring for electronics i had the funds to get a newer model bike with electrics and i thought no thank you so i opted for a 06 gsxr 1000 no electronics apart from fuel injection all raw
The 750 is the best all around bike you can buy, and it's all anyone would ever need.
HOWEVER, it needs to be updated with modern electronics. LED lighting, ABS, Traction and a quickshifter with auto-blip, from the factory. Other than paint and stickers, it's been 12 years since that bike for an update, and it shows when you ride it back to back with modern bikes... I respect it for what it is, and I have owned a few of them over the years, but I wouldn't even consider another one till they get on board with modern electronics.
ABS for today's roads is a must, and at the very least, a factory quickshifter, and the display looks like it's from the 1990's... Come on Suzuki, you did it with the 1000, we know you can do it for the 750/600...
I'm 6'1", and have a 2005 GSX-R 750. And it is a fantastic overall bike for power and torque. The 750 pulls the entire power band from low to high!
A fantastic bike to ride! And way more manageable and fun at any speed as well! I may never give it up (unless for another 750 of course).
Everytime I think of getting another bike, I go on a ride and immediately change my mind.. bike is BLAST TO RIDE..soooo light compare to the competition and fasssst as hell till u get to 155.. a beast!!
@@motorcycleartist I am the exact same way! Just entertaining the idea of something a little different...a small twist of the throttle and I'm brought back in!! I can't leave. I won't leave. 🏍
I have the red/black 2018. Love it. Fun as hell.
Gxxer rarely disappoint forget about the reputation the machine is built different 😂

The GSX-S750 was my first, sold it for a Z900 and regretted everything.
GSXR’s are easily the best sounding bikes. I love my FZ-07 Akrapovic exhaust, but my GSXR 600 exhaust note holds a special place in my heart.
I do wish they redesigned the bike like they redesigned the GSXR 1000. It’s very outdated for 2022. My 2011 GSXR 600 looks exactly the same as a 2022 GSXR 600/750.
I don’t care much about the tech. All I really want is cruise control and a quick shifter. So I basically just want shit for convenience.
I own a k6 750, totally agree.
I own a new Ducati Panigale V4 and brother owns 2018 Gsx-r 750. I absolutely love riding the Gsx-r!!! She brings so much joy into riding and is sexy. Going to get one as a pure track bike. 😍
OC: the only bike I currently have is a 2021 zx6r and it is not terrible for the riding I do around town. I wish I had more twisty roads near me, but it is still fun to blast around on.
Just got mine a couple of days ago in gray and white. 🔥🔥🔥
I love those integrated turn signals front and rear. I may have to come to gixxer graduation
I daily the 2021 version of that bike. It’s the same bike - it hasn’t changed since 2011. Thousand miles a month, rain or shine. It’s the best super sport for the street.
OC: I love a supersport. I'd still be riding a Daytona 675R if not for my brother crashing it. I do enjoy the more comfortable ride of my MT07. But if I could find another 675R in great condition I'd buy it on the spot.
Yo I got a 1986 750 52k miles still runs great
The 750 was amazing and I guess it’s a nice step to bring the amazing bike back
02 gsxr 750, crazy comfortable. more storage than old models, 140 hp and cheap
The GSXR750 is the greatest street bike ever made! K8 is by far the most beautiful and it is also the fastest stock motor! 💪🏾
OC: I still have my SS but I only ride it on weekends and soon only on the track. I still thoroughly enjoy it for its minimal tech and throttle cable. It's weird because I'm usually all for bleeding edge tech but I like my bikes simple.
Next week I’m heading over to buy a 2023 GSX R750Z this video just got me so much more juiced up. Thank you.
Chase! You gotta do a first ride on the aprilia rs 660!!
I was looking at a r6 but my dad strongly told me to get this exact bike because he rode the same gsxr (not the 22 version obviously) and he's 100% on board with me riding in a few years
I love the front end. Never change it. This guy is usually only half right..
'Never Change Suzuki' Nothing has changed on that bike for the last 15 years???? Looks identical to a circa 2008 GSXR600 I had. Same headlight, dash, body....
Hasn't changed since 2011
They just need to update the gauges and LEDs all around. Nice first ride!
Halogen light in 2022!
All intake noise Baby 👏🏻💪🏻
I had an 07 gsxr 600 i bought brand new in 07 and i wouldnt care about fake carbon myself. I miss the 07 prices though.
I have a 750 track bike, I only got it because I got a screaming deal, that being said it's a sweetheart and I love it
So this bike has 38 miles on it, doesn't the breakin still need to be done or is that a myth? I'm breaking in my new mt07 doing what the dealership told me, stay under 6k and run it up and down the rev range.
Remember the heat and cool cycle advice?
Why don't Suzuki update this bike??🤔🤔
The dash, headlight, tail section is super old..
Big companies are forever trying to sell us expensive bling. I wish they would produce a much cheaper version without 'track fodder' rider aids which prevent new riders from learning to control the bike, and without the daft and expensive 'faux-carbon'. With £2000, there's always a nice condition, low milage GSXR 750 SRAD-k1-k2-k3 multi-purpose sports bike. Great and informative vid--ta.🏍🏍🏍🏍
I am 54 and I just recently got a 2022 GSXR 750 and love the bike.
Tank grips really help and make riding less fatiguing. I think the bike is super comfortable for me at 5’10 and 180 lbs. I can joy ride for hours in total comfort.
I have a full M4 exhaust and the ECU was flashed by Chris Moore/Moore Mafia.
It’s a ton of fun, and if it’s an older 1000 I have no problem keeping up.☝🏻🏍️👊🏻🦾🫶🏻🔥🙏🏻

OC: My daily is a 1200RT, no super-sport. But it's all good. The parking guard at my office says I lean the RT over further than the super-sport guys when I pull into the lot. So it's the spirit.
I have the 2014 model and it's EXACTLY the same as this "2022" model :D I've been commuting on it here in London, UK and I've been riding it outside town. It's been nothing but amazing. Haven't had to fix anything on it in all these 8 years. Just been lubing my chain and putting petrol in (aside from the initial mandatory services). Looking at upgrading to a 1000 though, has always been my dream/goal.
I just bought a 2023 gsxr750 for my very first sport bike... They added C mode on that model, sounds like imma be grateful for it while I learn rofl
real shame these are not available in Europe anymore 😢
Having frwy commuted on sportbikes for 25 years I still don't trust myself with panic stops, so I wish suzuki would add anti-lock brakes. As for the zillion electronic settings on my R1 - I never touch 'em. That's for track riders. Just the A and B settings are plenty. I never even used B in my 2012 gsxr 600, even if I got stuck in the rain. I like the fake carbon fiber - it hides scuff marks. None of the Japanese bikes I've owned have the brakes like the Aprilia or Ducati - those things will throw your ass into yesterday. The grunt of a liter bike is nice, but no prob, just throw some revs at it and even my gsxr 600 was plenty fast. So I would be tempted with this 750. It seems ideal.
I'm 5'11 and have a 2014 gsxr 750 and I have no issue with the position of the handlebars, it still good riding position.
I am 6ft2 and tomorrow I am gonna test drive a GSXR 600 from 2017. I hope it fits and doesnt look funny :$, sick bike. Nice video!
Just an update for someone else that has my height: it fits! You can adjust the pegs around 13mm. Thx to that my legs fitted perfectly. Very nice bike however the one I test drove has been racing a lot so i didnt buy it. Again nice video!
OC: Super excited for this one! Been looking at the 750 or 1000 for my next bike
I’m so pleasantly surprised to see a UA-camr with a watch sponsorship that isn’t one of the doodoo brands
I was in 1000 for quite a long time and aim for the 750. It's not all about power actually, it's all about the rideability. Fuel prices are also in a record high so... lol
I agree, I have a K1200 and she’s thirsty
It's a supersport bro, of course its all about the power lol. None are comfortable like a naked or cruiser.
I say that while having lovingly bought my 2006 gsxr 600 2 weeks ago, right now I have no interest in my z400 lmao but i still love it.
I am planning on upgrading later this year, I was looking for either an r6 for the looks, a 636 for the torque or maybe this one! just moved on from riding a 300
I want to upgrade from my R7 to this GSX-R 750, I hope they keep manufacturing these!
Currently looking at the 2025 GSXR 750 Z.
"Throttle cable" is one of the reasons I want this bike. Direct connection to the throttle plates.

Can’t believe it’s the EXACT SAME since I bought mine brand new in 2013
Omg I was literally just trying to find a 750 first ride video from you last night cause I’m thinking of buying one.
Those integrated rear indicators are such an amzing and simple solution
OC - Huge Gixxer fan, always been always will. What's holding me back from getting the 750 though is the competition. In Canada the 750 is about $14k new, 2022 MT-09 closer to $13k. Different bikes yeah ok, still two wheels and an engine. SS vs Naked. Tech vs Mech. Hard to decide. Gonna wait for the roads to clean up and test out how good that MT really is.
Working at a dealership having ridden both, the streetability of the MT is superior, but you unfortunately have to look at the same atrocity. The GSX750R is certainly still streetable, and at speed or on highways slices through wind issue free.
Overall I'd take the looks, speed and reliability of the GSXR. It will run 100k miles without a single issue. Yamaha has been having recalls as of late. Get it on a track and you'll be chewing people up and spitting them out.
Naked will be slightly more comfortable slightly more standard motorcycle feeling.
I love this bike I bought exact one color and all in early January. It’s been so much fun and still is as I get more use to it everyday.
