Suzuki is finally upping their game it seems. It has always seemed that you were getting a very reliable product but with some budgetary concessions. Doesn't seem that way anymore. What they've been coming out with has given their brand a much needed boost to a rather long in the tooth line up. Now even more of a fan of Suzuki! Great job and keep up the good work Suzuki!
I think that Suzuki and Honda have had a little conversation and come out with the understanding that Suzi are tryna build on quality while Honda on value. The rivalry (which is organised by them, Hornet vs 8S, etc) is good for both brands but its interesting how the roles have sort of reversed with Suzi being the more premium brand now. My guess is that this push to quality costs them to the group, so to free up the funds they have given up on racing
Agreed, defo a contender to comparable brands
@@hisride I hadn't realized they had given up on racing. Sad.
Meanwhile, Yamaha is wiping them both out on product, reliability and price.
@@tg8150 :) maybe...but not looks imo. Yamaha is a hell of a brand though.
This bike is overdue by about 5 years,but better later than never. I'm getting one. ❤
by 10.
Suzuki 101 atm sadly
I love that this doesn't have a keyless fob. That alone makes this bike a winner in the market for me. Great Job Suzuki.
Wow, i honestly did not expect it to be a suzuki just from the pic! Looks great!!
I bought my first Suzuki in 1980, a GSX 750 and had quite a few since. They've all been great bikes and not a problem with any of them. Seriously looking at this GSXS 1000GX.
They make solid and reliable bikes. Had the SV650 3rd gen and it was perfect. Drop by, you may like my content.
Still riding my 82 GS650G. I wish Suzuki would bring back shaft drive bikes like my GS.
@@admiralbeez8143 That would be great. There is a lack of shafts in the bike world. Drop by bro, you may like my content.
just came in from pulling tires off of the Bandit 1250 and saw this...Center stand? Cool. The B1250 finally has a real successor...really cool that Suzuki is listening to the people.
I was thinking the same thing. This looks like best highway commuter and a damn fine touring bike. I hope it shows up in the US, where I don’t see another worthwhile upgrade. The combination of looks, performance, price, and reliability has me excited.
Wow! Stunning design! Well done Suzuki! Now there's absolutely no reason to buy a Versys 1000, and you'd have to really want DCT and be blind to buy the NT.
I understand comparing it to the Versys 1k / XR1k but not the NT...the NT is a tottaly different package with 50 odd less bhp
@@alexanderpearce5860 I completely agree about the NT. The NT is a totally different story. Rode it. Can check it.
This one any day over the Kawa Versys!
I'll take Versys unless this is much cheaper
Versys has centre stand.
Well presented thank you. Suzuki are really lifting their game and becoming one of the modern motorcycle standouts. Love these Gixxer engines may be close to 20 year old technology but one best engines around
Go Suzuki! 👍
Looks nicer than the GT imo.
Bravo from suzuki, i am a bmw owner 15 years now and I amvery considering this bike. I love the fact that you respect the owner and give him a full spec bike without stealing him. Well done.
Beautiful bike at a reasonable price! Good job Suzuki!
About time that Suzuki joined the semi active suspension crowd
Great looking bike and I’m sure it’ll be just as good as my current GT, so I’ll be looking to trade my GT for the new GX in the new year 👍
Finally a nice design! Bravo Suzuki!
You just know its going to be an awesome Bike who cares about radar cruise control thats for the old people I defo will be having a look at this beauty nice job Suzuki.
Looks terrific, would choose this over an XR- I think this will become Suzuki's biggest seller. Paul, what Dan is skating around in his question is- when is the Suzuki variable valve timing coming to the engine ;-)
I yet have to throw a leg over a Suzuki that I didn’t end up liking. Robust, reliable, and brilliantly executed motorbikes. My only wish for this K-5 engined beast is for Suzuki to incorporate an overdrive sixth gear, screaming on the highway in 6th gear on longer trips…well you know the rest.
Great looking bike! 👍
Genial!! Excelente trabajo👍🏻✨
best looking bike from Suzuki, gonna really want to test drive this one next year
Wow! It looks amazing!
It’s a sharp looking bike, how many letter configurations can they make with the same powertrain? I’d grab it over the XR any day
Awesome video! Beautiful bike for sure! Best!
This is what I love about Suzuki! And they’ve finally brought the styling up to date 💥
what a beauty!
Was about to get a versys1000 but upon scrolling I stumbled on this video, gotta admit this got me on hold from getting the V1K 😆..waiting for specs videos 👌
I have a Versus and a Katana. I love the Katana for sporty riding but for touring the Versys engine is silky smooth compared to the K5.
@@joedudz Versus is too heavy.
@@inked-96 Mmmm. Nope. I've toured two up all over Europe and it's a dream.
Wow this looks gorgeous
A stunner from Suzuki! This will sell bucket loads! Great to see them upping their game. I’ll be after a test ride.
Sell bucket loads…have you looked at the price? 😅
Looks a good deal for the spec. I had a gsxs1000f, one of the best engines I've experienced.
Looks stunning. Make sure you check out the green version - thats even better!
Just wow!!
im probably gonna get one of these.
Fantastic, and such a surprise! Now do the outdated drz400S, and SM.
Wow excellent!
Nice! Very nice. If offered at a competitive price this bike will be very popular indeed!
Yeah. Great addition and definitely interested. What about gearing? Any different?
Super looking bike with a brilliant engine and high-tech equipments with Suzuki reliability. I hope riding dynamics are good too and that'll make this bike an easy sell.
Excelente video
Excelente video genial 😁 👍
Great to see Suzuki upping their game. 👍
Es una demostración excelente
I love Suzuki
It is a great looking bike, but in my humble opinion there are details that make it a really good one, like the center stand, luggage capabilities, the effectiveness of the windscreen, the comfort of the seat... Will see. We should wait for now. Otherwise a great video. Enjoyed it.
Yes and centre stand isn't standard which is disappointing
I still have one of the best sport tourers, no electronics or other rider aids and the most fun, Triumph Sprint 1050ST
What a sweet bike !
Nice job Suzuki. Fully support continued iterations of such an awesome motor, that should not be thought of simply in terms of time since first inception. Bang for your buck, is unbeatable with this bike and radar assist needs more time in the market, to identify weakens in its application, before being rolled out as a stable (I can think of at least two previous riding situations where radar assist would have been a serious problem, so I'm almost certain there are more).
Great looking bike and loads of tech on it,suzuki is gonna hit the jackpot with this one.
holy smokes, that is a nice looking bike. Very futuristic/modern looking without not weird or trying to hard to be different.
Imagined this style for so long
Gran trabajo 👌
It looks so good
Totalmente alucinante 🥇🤘🏻
A couple of years ago, Suzuki really only had the Hayabusa that I was interested in. Now there's a whole bunch. Good for them. I can't see myself staying with Honda for my next bike, that's for sure.
Why not? I'm thinking of going to Honda after my 3rd Suzuki
@@hoihoihoi1951 Nothing major, there's just not much that I find interesting. I love the bike I have now.
It looks awesome
Wow, Finally they made it ! 🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a Versus and a Katana. I love the Katana for sporty riding but for touring the Versys engine is silky smooth compared to the K5. TFT screen better on this bike though.
I can not wait to try one it is the bee's knees 👌💯💯💯👍
I’d take heated grips over radar cruise any day of the week.
Beautiful motorcycle
welcome to the party,about bloody time! now all we need is yamaha's R1 version !!!
stunning design as usual....good job suzuki
One BAD thing: The headlights. Or rather, lack OF them. The eastern US roads, especially closer to cities, are INSANE these days; many oncoming drivers (and the ocean of DEER we have) will NEVER notice that tiny pin-prick of light, no matter how bright. It's not all about Candlepower.. you need AREA.. VOLUME.
Esa moto es preciosa ❤
Beautiful bike!!!
Exelente modelo de moto 🏍️👍
So does the traction control also work when leaned over?
Hermosos modelos de moto
Informative; well done. How does all this technology add to the cost of ownership?
Oh si 😮 Suzuki lo máximo
Hermosa moto
Una de las mejores motos 🏍 😎
Suzuki es lo mejor!
Wow finally a nice front grill
Fark I'm Impressed
I like this!!!!
looks good
Well done Suzuki. Finally ❤
Excelente
That is a really great looking tourer.
Suzuki onto a winner here
Suzuki la mejor marca 👏
That’s a very nice looking motorcycle
Nice bike. I think IF Suzuki bring out a new GSXR1000, this & the new GSX8R are a good indication of the tech it will have & what it'll look like. Interesting times again for Suzuki it seems.
Hermosa moto 🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️
Hermoso Fierro🤗
Qué bonita moto
Now I can trade off my Tracer 900 GT....finally. Bravo, Suzuki ;) ;)
I think this may well be my next bike.
Nice machine
Lindo modelo de 🏍️, debe de tener buena velocidad.
Cool
damn. suzuki are coming out swinging. this is going to be a great option for many bikers. maybe my 2016 S1000XR is getting an upgrade
Buen video
better looking than most the rivals
For a long time I have been waiting for a Japanese equivalent of the BMW S1000XR and now finally we have one. I will most likely upgrade my Tracer 900GT to this Suzuki when it becomes available.
6 axis imu! Does it have lean sensitive abs?
Will the active suspension lower the height at stops or stiffen the fork under braking to reduce dive?
Don't think it will lower it however there is some blurb about it reducing fork dive under braking
Wow, I was actually excited when I saw this bike yesterday and thought it would be a great option for us aging ex-sport rider guys who grew up on gixxers. I own a few bikes including a Multistrada with skyhook suspension (which is excellent) and was happy to see Suzuki finally added virtually identical active susp. to their lineup. However, I can't get over the price for this one here in the states, and I think Suzuki really missed the mark on it if I'm honest. $18,500 + destination ($540), dealer fees, and taxes puts this bike in the low $20k range. Looks like you also need to shell out for heated grips, good seat, etc. For this price I'd expect (everything!) steel brake lines (no idea why Japanese bikes rarely have these), hydraulic clutch, adjustable windscreen, higher level brembo front brakes, a rear brembo brake, etc. I believe they looked around the market and priced it based on the "adventure sport" competition, but for what's basically a chassis/bodywork redesign with an 18 yr old engine I'm struggling to see how this bike is worth $20k, let alone $4,500ish more than the 1000GT+ they just came out with last year. Is it worth $2k more than a Tracer 9 GT+? Also while I'm complaining about nothing, I wish all mans. would copy KTM and just show pro riders doing wheelies and stunts on their bikes - these marketing guys trying sell motorcycles by explaining the pedantic details in the manual no one ever reads is excruciating.
Is there a comparable NEW bike that is cheaper? As as solo rider I would probably go with the Tracer GT if I wanted to save a little money or the S1000xr for a little more. (for now I will keep my Multistrada 1260 Enduro)
@@NorCalSaint Yeah for sure the Tracer is up there. For this $, I would also look at the KTM SDGT (on sale I've seen them around $16-17k new), and the Guzzi Mandello S can be had with semi-active Ohlins, steel lines, power screen for $17,500. The Yammy and Guzzi are down on power, but probably just as fun with more real world power. I mean at $18,5 you're inviting pretty much everyone to the party.
@@zakw3637 Also there are a lot of complaints with this K5 motor having timing chain auto adjuster noises after the 1st oil change with the GT's and Suzuki is just ignoring it, saying it's normal. Yamaha CP motors have been proven to go 200,000 miles plus reliably.
Good vid good luck Suzuki over forty years ago my first new bike was a suzuki always cheaper than honda at the time great engine good luck
One of the most intriguing bikes out right now for me 😅
Linda moto
