Amazes me how much people sleep on the GSXS750--- the price is unbeatable for what you get: a sport naked that can hang with any of the others and coming with the indestructible legendary 2000s 750 gixxer engine, incredible handling and just an all around real riders bike. I feel like real riders with real skill appreciate what this machine is--- an objectively more balanced bike than say the mt09 which is an excessive wheelie machine and better handling than the z900. Both of those are great bikes too of course, then getting into KTM and so on-- 790/890 Duke amazing but you're not going to have Suzuki little to no extra maintenance with those so it's all relative.
For a real riders bike Suzuki nailed the GSXS.
Great review! Im also a pride owner of GSX-S750 and I must says it is a lively and fun thing I love to ride! It has the good looks and it is a reliable machine at a honest price ! Greetings from Spain !
Thank you very much! 😁😁
@@tat2wheelz how many miles you got her now Chris? Are you gonna keep her? Thank for the videos! 😊
@sonum1059 I'm about to breaking 20k miles on her. I'm looking at buying a Z900
@@tat2wheelz nice ! 20k
The z900 is actually a really good looking bike! I like it. You gotta drop a video on her!
They have the new 50th anniversary one. Or the metallic matte one too!
I just bought my 2020 gsxs 750z a week ago and OMG just loving it thanks for the video of 10,000 OMG big milestone for long term im setting at 300 working on break in...
Congratulations on the new bike. You will love it. This has been my favorite bike thus far.
You think if if it’s a first bike and you respect it I’ll be safe
I take delivery of my 2021 GSXS this week. Traded my gen 1 busa in, its a great bike but I'm not young anymore. Great video by the way.
Thank you much and congrats
Just went over 11k in my 18 gixxis. I love it too. I feel ya on the seat... literally. I got a corbin about 6 mths ago. Best motorcycle purchase I've made. My hands wear out way before I get saddle soar now. Great vid.
Thank you very much. I think that will be my next upgrade while riding season is winding down
Great review. You mentioned replacing the stock turn signals. I recommend the TST Industries BL6 LED pod turn signals. They’re low profile, but very bright. They make a clear and a smoke option. I installed them on my 2020 Suzuki SV650 and my 2020 Suzuki DRZ400SM. They look great. TST Industries makes signal plug converters for Suzuki motorcycles that enables plug and play. If you don’t see your make and model bike in their selection menu, I’d contact TST and ask about mounting options because they make mounting adapter kits for the signals.
I've put about 7k miles on my 2015 in the 6 months I've owned it (got it in May with 350 miles on it) and I LOVE IT. Best daily rider motorcycle I've ever owned. Like you, my only real complaints about it are difficulty in finding aftermarket parts and the seat. 2 hours and my ass is sore as hell lol. Otherwise, it rides great, it's sporty, comfy, gets decent mileage if you ain't ripping, the engine is a peach and sounds great!
You hit all the points that I was trying to convey! I agree with you!
I thought the seat was horrible as well. It's pricey but I went with the Corbin aftermarket seat and it was incredibly worth it. I can go hours without even noticing my rear anymore.
@@drgentile777 put a sw motec air seat on mine it has doubled my saddle time
Thats cool ur in Chattanooga I go there all the time happy I found ur vids
Happy to have you here 😊
Love the look of this bike buying 2018 myself for 5500 her in the UK 8000 miles 👍
I got the 22 year. Added a windscreen. Awesome bike.
It really is.
I love the looks of this bike and that GSX S750 sound. This will probably be my next bike. I honestly don't know why there are not as popular as they are. It's the same up here in Canada. Good job on the video.
Yea I'm wondering why it is not more popular here in the States but it has gained some steam lately. Hopefully videos like mine help push them into bigger sales numbers. Thanks so much!
This bike is getting low ratings by motorcycle reviews compared to it’s competitors z900, Mt09. Thanks to them I am getting one with a huge discount, brand new 2020 for price of Sv 650.
@@HS99876 hi HS. Everyone seems to focus on raw power, hence the bigger bikes.
Nice review! I had mine ‘20 750z abs for 6 months, 6,8k miles. I definitely love the bike, up in the mountains and on the commute. Always riding with my wife and bike handles amazing in the corners. Great confidence builder but I also practice a lot on empty lots! I would like to upgrade to a bigger bike thus my highway commute to work is about 30min and the bike feels like she is screaming lol wish it had a longer final gear ratio. I think this bike is perfect, upgrade brakes and tires if you ride spirited up in the mountains and you are set!
Oh, forgot the quickshifter is a must add on!
@@abones7243 I wanna do a quick shift myself
@@abones7243which one will you think is the best option ? Thanks
thank you for the review! I purchased my 2 weeks ago 9300 OTD, have 361 odo trying to add miles.. I love it the inline 4 with a shorty exhaust sounds Awsome! Did yiu follow the brake in recommendation? love your videos!🙂
Yes as soon as I bought it she was ready for the break in oil change. I have had the valves adjusted once and it wasn't much and next is a complete brake fluid flush. Thank you for the support
Have mine for almost five months, 8k on it, my first bike, stock is very very uncomfortable, seat is number one, low handlebar then no wind protection. I added Air Hawk seat , give me an hour extra riding , added 1.5’’ risers, without it , I would have sold the bike , also added the Puig touring windshield plus a clip on to reduce the wind and noise on my chest and helmet when riding at speed of 100km or higher. Now it is kind of sport touring but much cheaper.
Apart from the seat, I find it comfy with a seating position that lets you push it in the twisties.
Greetings from Manchester, England. Great review. Just pondering whether to get the gsx s750, gsx s1000 or Kawasaki z900 as my next bike... decisions, decisions....
I had the 1000 and didn't like how the throttle response was. And I looked at the z900 as well. Just liked the suzuki more. Good luck!
I love my 2018 GSXS 750 too. I hate the parts market, also.
Which tires did you get? I agree with all of what you said especially about the seat. Man that shit a unbearable after an hour or two. Has me wishing I got the 1000 instead; it was more comfortable. It was only my second bike tho so I was a little nervous. In retrospect I wish I did.
I’m actually sending my seat in the mail to the Luimoto guys in Vancouver BC this winter to get them to hook it up with that gel business. Read nothing but good reviews. Pretty pumped to get that done.
I’m in Canada, just put 10,500 km’s on it since I bought it new in May. Love it.
Just not the seat lol.
I went with the pilot power 2ct and dunlop q3 plus. I definitely like the 2ct more for the value
Nice sharing.. does it have good pickup in lower rpm? Bcoz usually inline four pulls strong when they reach high rpm
It has a great low to mid range pick up. Very good torque
Thanks. I rode one of these with 16km on the clock a very noisey exhaust and small bar ends. Hated the mirrors and love the bike. Hey interested in the screen. Ok at 100 kph (62mph) but the wind got under my helmet at 130 kph (80mph) and I did not like it much. Thoughts??
I have rode my bike with and without the screen and the with is much better for wind resistance and noise for sure. I just hate how most look on the bike
You replace the sparkplugs yet? Idk if I need to worry about it going into my 3rd season. Maybe next year after 10 k miles ill do it
I did at my 10k service.
Does your exhaust have the baffle in? And is it super loud without it?
This one really doesn't have much of a baffle. It is a small can and is loud when cranking it
There's cluch/brake levers that are the same blue and literally say gsx 750 on them! They're more comfortable than stock and way more fresh looking.
I'm gonna upgrade from SV650 to GSX s750, do you recommend it?
Absolutely
looking at buying one of these after 3 years of being uncomfortable on the new Fireblade mainy my legs how you lot getting on with comfort
Can't blame you there. That is the reason I went with this bike
Around how much do you spend on maintenance for 1 of these,oil,tires etc.??Im gunna save up for mine would like to know what im in for
Tires are around 450 bucks and oil and general maintenance is not bad at all
I bought a tire changer & balancer and it paid for itself with the first tire change. If you’re going to be putting miles on your bike, it’s probably the best purchase you can make.
I always switch out to sport touring tires on my bikes. Unless you're carving switchbacks in the mountains or go to the track, they grip just as well and last longer.
I saw someone complaining about how the bike was “screaming” on their commute to work, due to the gearing ratios? Just wanted to know your thoughts on highway speeds 70-80 mph, have you noticed or do you think it “screams”? Switching bikes rn because of gearing ratio on my current bike so don’t want deal with it on a new bike
I don't think it's that bad at those speeds.
It's fine at 70-80. maybe a cruiser guy?
Does it has agood torque at low rpm ?
and is it comfort for city drive ?
Yes and yes
Out of all the 650 cc naked bikes and all the "begginer" bikes, this looks the best for me. Yeah I know its 750,but its in a similar category
You can't go wrong with this bike
I was looking to get the gsxr 750 2005 but for the same price I can get a 2019 gsxs 750. Can someone give me any insight? Im torn between the two!
Depends on what you riding style is. GSXR vs GSXS is a Supersport vs a Standard sport. Different power delivery and position.
Is it tall enough for a 6 feet rider? I am confused between this and Yamaha mt 09
Yes it is. And I would choose this over the 09 all day.
Hello my friend. What is average fuel consumption? Thnx
45 to 50 mpg
I agree, the seat is terrible haha. I'm not sure if I should buy the Suzuki custom one since it'll be the same material, just different design. Let's just say, it gets sore where you don't want it to, after a couple of hours.
Definitely agree there
Saddleman makes a better seat.
What kind of oil are you running? Thanks
Motul full synthetic
@@tat2wheelz Cool, thanks so much! Great oil.
@@tat2wheelz Do you prefer that over the OEM Ecstar oil?
@@PeteZa92 yes absolutely
not much after market parts in the UK either buddy
I think you guys only have the black widow exhaust available to you without the insane shipping fees. Thats it. Y'all are in the same boat

Good ole Chattanooga
Service/maintenance Cost? Reliability?
Tires are the most expensive cost on this bike of course and the 10k service is a big one but after that it is about average in maintenance costs. This bike has had zero issues so it is very reliable.
Maintenance is about the same/cheaper than the FZ8 I had before the S750. Had mine for a year, but only managed about 6,000 miles on it. Zero issues.
I wanna get the 2020 gsx s 750
They are nice. My wife is a sales manager for a local dealership that has them. Hard for me to not want one
Revzilla is the american distributor that sells yoshimura parts but it's cheaper to buy direct tbh
I meant the R-11 which is not available in the US market yet
@@tat2wheelz i have been looking for it my self
Agree not much to complain about on this bike. The gap behind the seat is a bit annoying. And the helmet lock is retarded. I think that’s about it. Engine is fantastic. Looks sweet. Price is right.
This bike on 5th or 6th gear still tight and the motor not relaxed like you r on the 2nd gear !! This is what you should tell us ..!! It is important and sooo annoying !! Now i am considering saling it !! If you r on touring you will get crazy !!!
Great review. But please ‘Acc’essories.
Funny but true I ride so much I never get sore people always talk about it I can ride all day long dirt bikes sport bikes it doesn't matter put a 6 by 2 down and I'll be cool:-) LOL
Top speed ? Stock
144 mph stock.
@@tat2wheelz not bad for price
@@renerodriguez6300 not bad at all.
@@tat2wheelz thanx man I was considering the s1000 or the s1000f but 4k more for just more torque and a max speed of 160 not worth it I'm looking for bang for your buck it's just a work bike
Swap in a lithium battery. Well, that's a great mod for any bike.
I am going to do that
Did you try gel seat ? Same ?
No I haven't tried it.
my first tires on this bike got me 9000 miles lol
Then they weren't the battleax tires that mine had. They were trash
@@tat2wheelz I dunno I got a 2020 GSXS Z. if they changed the stock tires then maybe the upped em
You can buy yoshimura r11 in Danmark 691 USD
I'm just waiting for them to sell them in the US eventually
Or instead of getting a car for your first car get a motorcycle instead like I did and only drive cars when it's 100% necessary if not I'm riding my bike and because of that I never get sore.... I would get sore sitting in a car :-) though
wow.. minor let down knowing the scarecity of 3rd party for this gsxs750 beauty, oh but yamaha has countless aftermarket support on that overhyped crap bike, c'mon suzuki!
