Excellent review, Simon are you're skills transferable by psychic powers - wish I could ride a gsxr like you can. Personally the gsxr is the best however I'm only capable of riding the 750 version; I had a 1000cc but it was far superior for me to handle.
I am so confused, Simon Crafar knows what he is talking about, you cant dispute that. However all the British bike mag journo's completely slate the bikes brakes on and in some cases off the track. Granted Simon did say he would change the master cylinder, but said the caliper and pads where good along with their performance. Am I wasting my money on bike mags???
Simon says: " I have also now disconnected the ABS. I fitted a Brembo master cylinder and lines straight to the callipers. I just blanked off the lines coming from the ABS system with caps to stop fluid dripping out (Glen Searle thought of the idea) right where the ABS lines poke out through the frame. So it's still on there but not being used. Much easier than removing it. It's great now. The ABS was spongy, scary and disappointing. Most are. We use original discs and callipers and EBC pads."
@@BrianMcCann421 You also need to realize EVERY single bike mag runs the bikes on their stock suspension settings because usually multiple riders are on them of various weights on the same day during shootouts etc. Which is a shame because these upgraded R-R models come with fully adjustable suspension designed for custom setup. That is where the magic comes from.
Hi James, I've only ridden the 2017 S1000rr once, in Qatar over 6 months ago, I think to give an accurate answer I'd have to back to back them.... hope to get a chance to do this...
Motovudu Hi, whats the color of the wheels? The original in the black model? I have this Suzuki and the rear suspension are very soft. I use your configuration in the future and I hope to solution. And the bomb of brakes are not good. The other is power power and power! Please answer me. Thanks for the video
I love Suzuki for bringing a close to motogp livery in production bikes.

I suppose that's the compromise manufacturers have to make between track and road. Many thanks

Christopher Walken !
Which is better... this or a 2017 S1000rr?
James Augustine have you not read any magazines? The Gsxr kills the S1000 in almost every department

James Augustine 2007 Honda CBR1000RR any day of the week.... Simon knows me and will agree but not on here. (Suzuki is a sponsor of his)
not even the s1000rr pull away?
this message is sponsored by Suzuki
He said the brakes are great but everybody else says they aren't. Hmmm still love the bike anyway
Everyone says that about Suzuki, yet they all run the same exact brakes except for Yamaha. Hmmmm.
