First Ride on the 2024 GSX-R 1000 -- Initial Thoughts and Impression

- This video captures my first ride experience on the 2024 GSX-R 1000. A quasi review and discussion about my first impressions. Bottom line, the GSX-R 1000 blew me away, exceeding all of my expecations.
The car that hits you is the one you never saw! Keep that head on a swivel and keep going ! I’ve found motorcycles have made me a better motor vehicle operator because it caused me to have a more heightened awareness!
That is a very true statement. I drive my cars as if I am out on my bike, trying to reinforce good habits whenever I'm on the road. I appreciate the comments, my friend. Stay safe out there, and keep em spinning!
What you said is so true !!!! I am a better "cage" driver because of my bike. 🙂
what mic do you use man the audio sounds amazing!! Love the vids man 👍🏽
@fredo1186 Thanks my man! I am using the purple panda mic with a dead cat windscreen. Thanks for the feedback and support!! 😎😎
Put a seat cowl on it matching color, will look really nice.
The bike look good my brother I started with a TL 1000. Didn’t know how to ride. Had a buddy teach me keep that good content coming in looking forward to the next video let’s go.
@trikemike7281 I appreciate it, my G!! I will indeed keep the content coming. Live it up, and keep it Two Wheels Down!! 🫡
Nice bike. I have a 2023 Gsxr 1000 R and I love it.
@whatsup6969 That's what's up (no pun intended, lol). They are some incredible machines. Have fun out there, GSX-R family -- Two Wheels Down!
U think the base 1000 is good enough or u think u should have got the 1000r. I'm trying to decide still what u think?
@simplybuiltgarage Honestly, I am completely satisfied with the 1000. I wish I had some experience on the 1000R to give you a personal comparison, but I don't. Unless you're a hardcore track enthusiast, the 1000 should should suit you just fine. All the best in your decision. 🫡
luv the the videos
@cuttirow I appreciate it, family!
Thanks for the video man ! Makes me really want one, probably a gsxr750, but might do the 1000 just because the riding modes can be more tamed down, and hear it can be more comfortable with the suspension modes, and the quick shifter. for about 2k more makes me think hard about it.
Stay safe brother ! Keep the video's coming !
@wildmanjeff42 Thank you, my friend! You're right on the money. I have a 750, and although it has two riding modes, the 1000 can be bridled down to the point where it is less aggressive than the 750. The 1k is a bit more comfortable, too. Both are awesome machines and neither will let you down, but the 1k is heads above given its overall capabilities. If you plan to go hard at the track, definitely consider the 1000R. All the best in your choice, and stay safe as well. Two Wheels Down!! 🫡
@@QuikkSilver thanks man !
Same as 2023
@danielresch2975 And I love it! 😉
I'm surprised they don't have a TFT display.
Yeah, that's where Suzuki draws a lot of criticism. I guess coming from the basic 750 display, this one is a major improvement; I personally like it. Though it should be an upgrade option from the manufacturer, there are after market TFTs that one can get for the GSX-R 1K.
It's really not that important. I was just surprised as most manufacturers have moved to those displays. I think even the 2024 zx6 has one. I do mostly track riding (2021 zx10) and I sometimes tape over the display anyway. Less distractions.
Put it in A mode and give it the beans man, you'll know how powerful it is.
@VinayKumar-db4qz 😄 oh, believe you me, since this video post, I have.
@@QuikkSilver You go boy 👍
@@VinayKumar-db4qz 😂
People, I must say, this bike is absolutely awesome!! Feels like it sits on rails, so smooth and nimble. I will be dropping updates and a side by side comparison with my GSX-R 750! If you are GSX-R 1000 owner, or considering getting one, I want to know your thoughts. Two wheels down!
I have a 2023 GSXR 1000RZ and absolutely love it.
@@Stang281472 It truly is an awesome piece of machinery. Enjoy it, my friend!
@@QuikkSilver it truly is! Enjoy and be safe my friend.
@QuickSilver- I sat on this bike last week at the dealer and it felt as if it had me reached over the tank versus being more upright like the s1000rr. I'm 5'8. I haven't rode in 6yrs and getting the itch again and wanted to see what's all thr hype about with these gsxr, it has a hell of a fanbase here in the DMV.
@@antownemercer7552 Yes, it will definitely have you leaned over a bit. But the 1K has me less leaned over than my 750. I am 6 ft, so height is definitely going to play a factor. But you are right, GSX-Rs are hot in the DMV. I honestly don't have much experience with other bike brands so I could not give you an honest comparison aside from my GSX-R 750 and my wife's Ninja 400. What I can tell you is both the 750 and 1K are some awesome machines. They handle very similarly, nimble, smooth and responsive. The 750 though, feels a bit more raw and edgy than the 1K (no rider aids, ABS, etc.) I am willing to bet, if you got yourself a GSX-R 1K, you will be pleasantly surprised.
Well done sir, audio from your mic was super. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, my friend!
I went and looked at this bike yesterday, had 1 mile on it. I'm going to say...get the gsxr1000r. This is the base model...felt kinda cheesy
I hear you. To each his own. The only difference is an upgraded suspension system, steel braided brakelines, and the front position lights. If one is willing to spend a few extra $$ for it, go ahead. 🤙
First time watching. You got a good voice for this. That's my first impression. Hope that helps.
Thanks, my friend. Yes, it does does help.
Love to see some MD content. Keep it up bro, might see u out there.
Yessir!! That would be awesome. We got some favorable weather just around the conrner... I will be on the look out!
I know you accidently stalled (we all do it from time to time) but it's crazy how easy it could pull away in 3rd gear. Thank you for leaving that in!
I appreciate the encouragement, my friend. And you're right, Suzuki put together a great machine. Thanks for sharing!
I’m new to this bike so I have some questions first question is what’s the price for this and second question is an automatic
@FiqSosa The price for the 1000 is $16k and change. The 1000R is 18k, and some change. I am afraid the bike is not automatic. I am pretty sure that there are no sports bikes that feature an automatic transmission. The bi-directional quickshifter is the closest you'll get to an automatic transmission. I hope that helps. Let me know.
Be careful riding in the middle of the road, there were alot of dark spots
Does it have cruise control? Will finish watching later😊
@Stockish_Daza Thanks for stopping by!Unfortunately, cruise control is not a feature nor an option on the bike. 😉
Awesome bike. I got a cbr250 and I'm looking at this bike to get next. Keep uploading vids about the bike, can't wait to see you push it and see how it handles after the break in period.
Thanks, my friend! I appreciate the feedback. There's definitely more to come. I cant wait till summer rolls around!! Best wishes in your riding journey; keep me posted if you'd like to.
If that’s your 1st bike, I’d recommend you get a 650 or 600 and don’t just jump right to the liter bike…. That’s a big jump my brother…
You can get it, but consider some 600-class bikes too. The japanese 600s, and particularly the MV F3 and Triumph 675 are AWESOME options. I don't say this to protect you necessarily, but because I think the smaller bikes are flat out better in certain ways. After ripping up some twisties on a liter bike, I always find myself excited to go back to my lighter bike. It's so much more enjoyable to lean the lighter bike from side to side, and the power on a liter bike can be extremely dangerous coming out of corners (for ANYONE, not just newbies). Liter bikes come and go, but there's something special about a 600. Like the manufacturers focus more on the ride and less on the stats.
@@austin5920 man I agree with everything you just said…. I love the Gsxr 1000…. And hearing you say how dangerous they are coming out of the corners, I must say makes me a little nervous…. I’ve been riding my Gsxr 600, and it is really fun…. I guess I’m just gonna have to try the 1000 and see…. But I do understand what you’re saying….. they do say its better to ride a slow bike fast , than a fast bike slow..
@@Rickyclark It's a pretty insane difference, the power at the low end is the main thing. If you're in a corner it's so easy to throw it into a highside with just a tad too much throttle. But twisties is my bread & butter and I'm always noticing the stuff that makes doing twisties harder, if you like riding mainly commuting or highway then it's not as bad. Of course I do that stuff too, but I have the most fun in the curves and I want my bikes to be the best at curves, and put highway and commuting as an afterthought.
When will suzuki ever catch up with the times,that lcd display is so outdated
Nice bike, I have a 2021 GSXR1000R. I love it! Nice power. I keep it in A mode with the traction control off. It is a very fun bike. Good luck with yours.
That's what I'm talking about, my man! I'll be there soon and look forward to it. 😊 Thanks for sharing. Keep em spinning and stay safe out there.
New subscriber, here. I've watched two of your reviews about the R1000 and they were the best on UA-cam. I currently have a 2022 Triumph Street Triple, which is a fine motorcycle, but I've decided I'm going to upgrade to the GSX-R1000 in early June. I plan to keep it as my forever bike and track ride it most of the time but I also want to ride it through the twisty's. Thank you so much for taking the time to post your videos, you are a great asset to the riding community. I'll drop by after I've had the R1000 a few weeks and share my thoughts. Ride safe.
P.S. You seem like a super cool dude. You'd be a great neighbor to have!
@TheCousinEddie My friend, thank you for those kind words it really means a lot to me. I am humbled...still a baby in this game, but I truly love it. What's just as awesome as riding are the people I have been fortunate to meet along the way. You're going to have a great time on that 1K. For the type of riding you plan to do, you may want to consider the 1000R for the upgraded suspension package. You'll probably find it more track responsive in the track setting.
You seem like a great guy and neighbor, too. 😊 And please, I would love to hear about your experience with the bike; keep me posted. Again, thanks for sharing and supporting. Be safe out there and keep em Two Wheels Down!!
Bad ass bike!!! I’ve got the 23 750 same color scheme I wish I would have got the 1000 but I’m still in love with my 750.
Thanks, brother!! I love my 750, too, and have no plans to ever let go. Cant sleep on that 750 either. It is a raw, untamed animal. It feels more aggressive than the 1K...
素敵な町にかっこいいバイク
Just curious @quikksilver did your bike come with a painted rear passenger seat cowl or is that a separate add-on?
@2023Hayabusa in this video here, that is the original stock driver and passenger seat. In other videos, the red, gray and black seat covers are after market, I did not get a seat cowl.
Crossplane ❌
Flatplane ✅
@QuickSilver where did you get the grips that match the rims?
@boujie-tr6pf I got the grips from revzilla. They're the Rizoma Sport 7/8 Grips. The bar ends are rizoma as well and are sold separately.
At 6'5" can I fit on a 1000 I like your video
@desmondbrown8502 6'5" really puts things into perspective. Thank you very much for the input, my friend!
And they say Jappas have no soul but the gixxer is a beautiful bike with more soul than assoul like the cruiser riders would have you believe 😅😂🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely! The bike is absolutely amazing -- it puts a smile on my face everytime I ride it! 😎😎😁
@@QuikkSilver I have a gsxs 1000 and that's so much fun also!
@gixxusmetalman7435 Right on, Gixxus. One of my riding brothers has one, and he gets down on that bad boy. Awesome machine, and looks sick as well!! Be safe and enjoy 😎🫡
I bet your neighbors love you lol
@TheMegaberg My neighbors are really cool 😎 LOL!
What microphone set up do you have?
I am using the Purple Panda with wind sock. You'll need a three to two ring 1/8th inch jack adapter plug tho (AGD TRRS to TRS Male) you can get them off Amazon for a few bucks.
So when did you plan to ride it?
Ahh, you got jokes, huh 😂
Bro I just subbed, and I swear it’s like I’m watching one of my vids… you respect the machine….. I think you made decision for me.. 😂…. It’s time to upgrade from my Gsxr 600… ride safe .. salute!!
My dude!!! I appreciate it -- I'm gonna swing over and check out your channel -- gotta respect that 400 lbs Rottie LOL!!! Bro, I'll tell you, as a proud GSX-R 750 owner, you will be pleasantly suprised when you jump on that 1K. I promise you, after riding that 1K and jumping back on my 750, my 750 felt more aggressive than the 1K. I am sure it has to do with all the electronics on the 1K that can help keep it tamed down, but that should help to put things into perspective. Best of luck with the purchase, I'll be on the look out... Salute!!
Is the gauge cluster full color digital or only green and black ?
It's the old school Nintendo Gameboy type dash, Sizzle. No colors.
@@QuikkSilver ahh ok my cousin had the 2017 gsxr 1000 he said the bike is perfect but they didn’t up date the gauge cluster he said the exact same thing lol
@HotSizzleTV_ Yeah, there is an aftermarket AiM dashboard that's really slick, but it's a decent penny. I've considered getting one, but it will probably be one of, if not the last mod I do on the bike.
Im 38 now😢 but back in 2006 when i was 21 I purchased brand new gsxr1000 as my first bike , i didnt want to go
Thru the hassle of buying a 300 then a 600 ..So i just when in 100% loved the bike took it easy the first couple months and scared my self a few times 😂but thankfully never crashed it . Until I started riding it harder and
Learning the twisties 😊sold the bike with 85k smiles and still regret selling it 😢
I could only imagine a raw 2006 GSX-R 1K, no rider aids, just a raw uncaged animal. Learning to ride on an animal like that is just beyond commendable, that is brave and ballsy. Kudos to you, brother; and you're alive to tell the story too lol! 🫡 Sad that you got rid of it, but the great part is, there's a shiny brand new one out there waiting just for you!! Go on and get back in the saddle!! Keep me posted 😉😊
what mic do you use
Purple Panda with a wind sock.
Great video and info i currently own a fz10 and want to trade it in for the gsxr1000
@cesar201153, I appreciate it, my man. Go ahead and make that move. You won't regret it. It is an awesome machine. It's ironic, I named the bike 'Caesar.' If or when you do make that move, I would love to hear about. 🫡
@QuikkSilver he'll yeah man I need more top end power I like to ride alot specially on weekends out here in LA so definitely want something different. Lol I know it's crazy u named the bike ceaser hahaha lil cease junior mafia
@cesar201153 That's what I'm talking about! Bro, I lived in Oxnard for about a year back in 2015 - 2016. The bike scene was insane. There are lots of awesome riding options out there. When it's time to get down, you want a bike that can get down. That GSX-R will do just that. I'm pumped for ya, bro!
@QuikkSilver that's wazz up G I recently came back to LA to lived cause I was staying in Bama for 3 years . What I miss out there in the south that there are highways that you could really rip... but thanks G I'm definitely gonna get a gsxr1000
I see you in my area. I’m in the Fortwashington area maybe one weekend we can get together and ride. Keep the videos coming my brother.
@trikemike7291 yessir, Upper Marlboro. This weekend will be jumping! Holla at me: quikksilver750@gmail.com
People in my area are NOTORIOUS for not using turn signals and it aggravates the crap out of me. I mean how LAZY (and inconsiderate), do you have to be to not flip on a blinker??
100% alot these motorist are out of control out here!😄
I still got my gsxr 600 I bought new in 2009 haven’t ridden it in 4 years but plan to next month. Before that I had an 2006 750 it got stolen from me that was my favorite bike I ever owned.
@HotSizzleTV Rock on my brother! I'm sorry to hear about your 750, I still have mine and love that thing. GSX-Rs are some incredible machines, so smooth. I took my 750 (Quikk) out for a spin this past Saturday, and it was smooth as a 79 Cadillac LOL. 4 years is a minute, ease back into it, and enjoy yourself. Happy riding, my brother, and keep it saucy! 😉
First sports bike?
@300poundsandchanging my first bike is a GSX-R 750... which I still have.
This is the first video I've seen halfway through it bro I've already subscribed I have so much respect for you and your writing style keep up the good work brother that's refreshing to see someone ride a bike with respect and honor I'm looking forward to more content !!!!!
@jop5892 I appreciate those kind words, my friend. I truly enjoy the feedback and support coming in from the community; it means a lot to me. I will do my best to keep the content coming. Stay tuned, and stay safe out there. Two Wheels Down!! 🫡
Good looking GSX-R!
You may want to invest in some gauntlet gloves that cover more of your wrist.
Enjoy the bike!
@fjones1914 Thank you kindly, my friend! Since this video was posted, I have gotten a pair. But I must admit, I should wear them more often, and I will. But, nonetheless, I appreciate the tip. 🫡
Thanks for this video. I am picking up my new one tomorrow. I plan on B mode for awhile as well!! I have a Streetglide that I am used to. This should be fun!! Ride safe my brother!!
@larrylengel1479 Awesome!! Congratulations on the new purchase. You're getting yourself one awesome machine. Its a very wise move to take your time with it and learn its characteristics. I promise it's going to exceed your expectations. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the bike in comparison to your HD (once you're settled in on the GSX-R). Its surprisingly comfortable for a supersport. Thanks for sharing, enjoy yourself, and be safe as well, my man!! 🫡
Bro, I loved your bike, I really liked these colors! You made a great choice, I'm thinking about getting one too.
@Maycon_Cavalcante. Thanks, my friend. You have great taste 👌😊 Go ahead and get yourself one. You won't regret it. If you do end up getting one, I'd love to hear about it. "Two Wheels Down"
Nice vid is that a slip on ?
Did you have to install servo buddy so it won’t throw any lights?
Thanks! Yes, it's just a slip-on, not a full system, so no servo issues.
Fantastic overview. Congrats on the new Nike.
@jakeamerica thank you so much, my friend!
We want to listen to the bike not you!!!!
@alexalexalexalex7906 check out my ride to Chesapeake Beach video, I let the bike do all the talking. Check it out...
I’m just kidding jaaaaaa
@@alexalexalexalex7906 I gotcha, fam. 😎
Dope bro!!!! Yea I’m definitely been looking at this bike…. How’s is the warranty???
Thanks, my dude!! The bike comes with the standard 3 yr manufacturer's warranty and then they have an extended plan you can get that takes it out to like 4 years. Small mods like exhaust, brake lines, fender eliminator, brake and clutch levers will not affect the warranty either...
@@QuikkSilver o yea that’s good… at least you didn’t have to wait to put that exhaust on… she sounds good!!! Yea bro I’m definitely ready to upgrade now….
Picked up the same 2024 model last month and it’s such an amazing bike. I put the Akrapovic GP style exhaust and it’s just great
Awesome! I could not agee more. The weather's been so spotty that I haven't gotten in much seat time, I was actually surprised with the bike's handling a performance so far. Two Wheels Down!!
@@QuikkSilverwhat no way one wheel down one up😂
@@hardscope7744 Too funny 😂
I see you’re not to far from me down here in what they call wakanda. But them gixxers always been good bikes, I started on a 600 for like 2 years then 1000 since
That's what I'm talking about, bruh. I love these machines & and Wakanda forever, LOL. Hopefully, I'll see you out there. I'm looking forward to turning a whole lot of corners this season.
@@QuikkSilver Fo sho I’ll be out there
Where did u get the grips? I have the same one and it’s a amazing bike 🔥🔥
I got the grips (and bar ends) from revzilla. Their the Rizoma Sport 7/8. But (you may already know) but be warned, the stock bar end has a 1/4 inch bolt that is threaded into the bar end, so you'll have to do some minor fabs to get the custom bar ends secured properly. But, yeah, I 100% love this bike. Be safe out there, my friend! Two Wheels Down!!✌
