Neeves again showing he is my favorite bike reviewer. He has a way of conveying the "inner" details of a bike in ways that correspond to my experience on those bikes we have both ridden. Kudos!
long term reviews r the best in my opinion!
Definitely.
Great Video MCN! I'm the guy on the Bike in front of Michael at the the Nurburgring going round the Karussell....😊
Great review thank you, watched it several times and doesn’t lose value. Played a large part in me buying this bike two yrs ago and absolutely no regrets. As a 6ft 1 non track, road only sports bike rider, this has been perfect. Commute, Europe trips, weekend blast..sorry for delay in commenting, better late than Neever!😉
That's incredible to hear. I had a gsxr750 k4 and although I absolutely LOVED it for agility it was SUPER uncomfortable. How do you being so tall not get tired specially for the back on long journeys.... Is there something I've completely missed in riding position?
@Tony Cowgill
I use one of those air cushion pads for touring but other than that, usual tactics to stay comfortable longer, shifting position etc..less comfortable than non sports bikes obvs but compared to likes of zx10 and others that I’ve owned, this is great..
@@tonycowgill4303 thanks. Do you ever resrt your weight on the tank completely maybe on top of a tank bag?
@@Harris_Ali_ no problem, yes for sure, either depending on circumstances, all covered in a really good long term review
Mr. Neeves probably gives the best motorcycle reviews of anybody. Good job mate. I want one of those bikes.
Always love your long term test updates/review. Really gives a good in depth look on ownership and all of its niggles.
Nice video. Always impressed with your presenting and articulation of bike reviews.
This guy's the read deal, best reviews on the net, honest, succinct, detailed. Feel like I owned the Gixxer after watching the test!! Thank you for an honest review. Cheers and thank you...
we need more such honest review on the net. thanks!
Brilliant detailed and honest review, nice.
M Souris couldn't have said it better.
agreed,this is how review for a bike should be
No when he said that the auto blipper is giving him an extra blip only track when turns in after braking he shows how inexperienced he is on track. I gave him the benefit of the doubt at first but then he goes on to say he can't replicate it and it only happens on track. I've only tracked my bike for a year as an amateur and I know what's happening.
@@cognition26 you do know Micheal Neeves has multiple race wins at club level and raced a classics gsxr1100 at Phillip Island
@@markjackson7650 Then why doesn't he realize that when you lean the bike the revs go up? And it's common for a lot of intermediate racers to use this for an up shift.
Your reviews are the best.
Sounds super fun and thanks for the personal review!
Great review. Cannot believe the same brake fade still exists that I had on my K5 track bike.
Great vid thanks for posting .. I pick mine up this week
What a brilliant piece of review right here.... Thanks a lot sir
love your accent and your review, best regards from Australia.
Excellent review... thanks for all the detail.
I love this motorcycle.!!
Great honest review straight to the points👌🏽
Love your work
Gorgeous bike.
Top notch review as always Mr. N. I'm still looking for that job btw...lol...
Great detailed review!
Such a beautiful bike
Gosh; journalist in honest review of new superbike. Nice :)
Brilliant review - exactly what I wanted to know
Great review! Thanks very much :)
Great review!
Nice review MN, your affection for the bike comes through, even despite a few gremlins. Could you tell us more about your choice of screen? Is it quiet? Any buffeting? Maybe more weight on your wrists? I’m trying to figure out screens and not getting very far! The new ‘blade has a tiny screen, for example...
Beautiful review as usual! 👌👌
This was solid, thanks.
Still the best reviewer out there!
as always, great review, what type of screen did you fitted? thnks
A good objective round up 👏👍
great review thx !
Love this channel keep it up
Great update
Nice to hear again about the good old gixx issue with brakes.
yeah you go to La Cité de Carcassonne nice im living here !!
Ive never been a big GSXR fan over the years but Suzuki really have nailed this new GSXR 1000 💯 a litre sports bike id consider in the near future
You should've been. GSXR 2003-2005 had so crazy throttle response and so low mass centre it was really pure joy comparing to heavy and slow competitor gliders. Assembly quality and brakes were way worse than honda, but the engine.... mmmm
@@daniiltimin5396 The K7 is the best ;)
@@smashedlegends unreasonable high.
The k5/k6 is an amazing bike.
@@smashedlegends K5/6 supreme champ. 💙
Nice review Neevesy!
Gonna buy one!
MCN is by far the best motorcycle media out there.

My dream bike
Very very very good review. Can't say very enough times.
Very professional job Michael. Your comments on this bike and also on the R1 (2015) and ZX-10R (2016) are all very precise and useful for us on our everyday lives. All Superbikes lack good brakes nowadays. I personally didn't like the CBR1000RR brakes. Maybe we are getting too demanding! :-) Have fun!
Man i would love to go on a long trip around europe on a bike as well...
Excellent, intelligent review
Good Honest review Micheal, For someone like me who will ride the Bike purely on the Road it sounds ideal. Most of its Weak Points sound like they are more Track focused.
Good review.
Bike looks absolutely gorgeous, but as for a sport bike in which you can make long trips wouldn't you prefer a Hayabusa?
It’d be cool if you released the footage of your laps around the tracks especially the Nurburgring 😁
great review, im looking at buying a 2019 one shortly :)
King of sportbike
Great review. Is the Fireblade less comfi as road bike than the GXR1000R? Cheers
my favorite bike
Suzuki GSXR, simply the best. ❤️💙
Very very good review
after watching the new gsxr and the zx10r i will choose the zx10 over the gsxr because it has a good brake system with ss lines and the paint is pretty good will not fade. thanks mr neeves for the information and drive safe my friend
there's something going on with the quick shift linkage, maybe too sensitive triggering the blip but not shifting so that maybe just an adjustment issue or a replacement unit.
very good
Great review. Looking forward to the next one.
The GSX-R is one of three bikes I'm looking at as my next/new motorcycle.
(the other two are the BMW 1000RR and the Fireblade SP)
The GSX-R started out as a favourite, but with all of the little things you mentioned such as the brakes (which is a standard thing I do anyway as I'm quite hard on the brakes) the paint being super thin in places etc etc.
They're not big issues by themselves, but as mentioned, on a 14k motorcycle, it shouldn't happen.
So as much as I want to like it, it probably means the GSX-R moves to the bottom of my very short list.
I guess that means it's between the CBR1000 and the BMW now. I just can't get over the a-symmetric looks of the BMW. I know the performance is the most important thing, but I just can't deal with it. Hopefully they'll fix it in the 2018/2019 model which (I heard) should be a big redesign of the bike.
The bike I've unfortunately haven't seen many "big" articles and/or reviews of, is the CBR.
I've always had a softspot for Honda, i've owned multiple and never had a problem with any of them.
At the moment, it's on top of the list. :) (although the BMW is a close second... just fix that damned wonky face)
Will MCN be doing a long term, or "bigger" video on the CBR?
2018 version has the brakes and autobliper issue fixed.
Is that the Skidmarx double bubble screen or the 2 piece TT screen?
Tnx for great video? How good is heat managment? My gsxr600 gets very very hot! Espetialy roundtown
Can you please tell me about the steering dampner on it, some say its useless and that it needs and aftermarket one, did you find it okay on your trip?
Does the windsheild that you have defelct the air where it doesn't hit your face or head?
2 gear and speed 8 impressive👍👍👍
Can you tell me which bike would you choose between the Zx10r and the Suzuki GSX r 1000 latest model ? Road and track use
Thanks ,great review as always
Hi, please test and review the new S1000 ,2021 .
You claim to be The Missenden Flyer. But the real Missenden Flyer always starts with "Hey Kids"
This is not missenden flyer lol
Wrong channel
You did yourself
Your comment on the auto blipper down shift. It gives a extra lunge if the throttle is not closed completely. Under hard breaking into turns down shifting try closing throttle all the way and try it with it on, it will then repeat itself for you.
04:02 MY GOD!!!
Check out Brock Davidson videos about this bike. Just put down over 200hp to the rear wheel
So out of the 3 long term test bikes R1, ZX10R or GSXR1000R did you prefer? I only ask as I am looking to buy one but can’t decide which one. I will only be using on the road
very strong car
what sport bike do you recommend for beginner ?
8:03 there's a new GSX 125 in the back ground :)
I wonder how Neeves feels about this vs new S1000RR on the street and touring
Dear @MCM. What you mean with tingeling and Bussi? I have bought a new one last week and i found that its a really vibration Bike. Above 7000rpm it isn't Fun anymore :(
If the throttle bodies are a little out sync, can that cause a buzz in the bars?
Nice review as expected. Is there a company like hilltop motorcycles abroad/germany ? I'd like to change the exhaust. The old brake the issue
of the gsxr. No top brake definitly. But a least the calipers keep dry. From of 2019 the hayes caliper's of the s1000r (and a few boxemodells) lose brakefluid. Not to mention a few other issues. So the gixxer is the more honest and value bike.
can i get a link for that tail tidy
Just noticed the Boeing plane in the background LOL
Awesome review, Will you be doing one for s1000rr??
There are no plans for a standalone S1000RR review, but we have tested it with other bikes before, if you if our channel a search. Cheers Neevesy
will the 600/750 adj pegs fit on this bike?
Found a 2014 with 7k miles on it. Dealer wants $8,900. Are they asking too much and does anyone have any tips or advice on the ‘14 model?
Gsxr the best bike ever built
It has the shittiest brakes and you call it one of the greatest bikes.
@@uttamjeetsingh7451 No, the best ever, live a little and buy a GSXR. 💙
@5:30 that extra BLIP you talk about sounds like the PAIR system. My bandit does the same thing. Only ever after hard deceleration.
Stop comparing a rusty old bandit to one of the greatest motorcycles ever produced.
@@mariosavva999 One of the greatest motorcycles? Please, this thing is riddled with faults and not an ideal track bike even though that's it's main purpose.
Which bike is better on the road? This or the ZX10R?
See my city (0:54) in one of your videos, it's just great 😍👌
does the onboard ecu allow re-map or do you to add a power commander?
it can be remapped
Great bike, dont understand why suzukis are so underrated..
Great review, but OMG that tank sticker, could it be any more wonky ?!
So as a road bike its good which its intended to do..
Sounds like high praise from a bike that hasn’t really impressed anyone in the superbike comparisons. However, as I’m looking for a good street bike to make the work commute, and some fun Sunday rides with, it sounds like this makes the cut!
What jacket is that?
Fireblade Longterm pleaseee..
Great review but why is there nowhere stating what year the bike is!?
It's a 2017 model, there's lots more info about it here - www.motorcyclenews.com/mcn-motorycles/2017/suzuki-gsx-r1000r/
