I got one as soon as they came out. Have 1400 miles on it now. An exhaust changes the entire personality of the bike. It’s a great commuter but also very fun in the twisties.
I hope this platform sticks around for a while, currently rocking a Triumph 675 and want to give one of these a go in the future, even if its a power downgrade it just looks so fun
I'm totally biased hahah I love mine! Ordered an Arrow complete exhaust, filter and have my appointment for remapping. I'm hoping to love it so much more after all is done and installed! Got it in August and have 14,000km
@@patrickh.4708I chose to remap because it felt empty in low RPM, lost everything it had due to the complete exhaust. Normal thing that happens with bi-cilindric bikes. Remapping made it even better than before, even my mechanic tried it and he was impressed!
I could see it doing pretty well on this bike! I’ve personally grown to enjoy handle bars instead of clips on for comfort now. Maybe I’m just getting old too lol
I believe the GSX-8S has more top end power than my CB650R The more experience I have riding these middleweight naked bikes, the CB650R is super well balanced, but compared to others, it lacks in the higher end pulls compared to 750-800cc bikes (think Triumph/Suzuki)

Thats awesome man! send me a clip on my insta of the exhaust when you can @espresso.racer
What exhaust did you get? Is it a full system?
@@clubstyleridahd4695 it’s a custom system that I built. There’s video’s on my page.

They should be keeping this platform for a while especially with new faired version coming out
@@EspressoRacer Yeah, looking forward to the 8R version as well, should be a good street and track bike
Just bought one in black myself and i love it. I done the tail tidy a week after i got it 😂

Damn you put miles on that bike! Ride safe buddy
Why did you do remapping? Do you feel a huge difference? Whats better? Tanks :) Have ordered the same bike, will get it in 2 weeks 🤩

Great choice!
Getting it as my first bike. I'll put it in the slower B mode as most reviewers suggested which has smoother power delivery. Cant wait!
Be safe my man! Congrats on the first bike :)
this red caddie with the rimms are paul wall
Lol no way?!
"i can tell you without a fact" that was a pretty funny slip of the tongue 😄
lol! Good catch!
Great bike.
That guy at 18:00mins in that powered past HIS bike🏍️ is run in😁😆😂🤣.
I did not see him coming at all!
@@EspressoRacer HE was of moving.
Bro, the quickshifter does not need to release gas to shift up or down, it's just advice based on what the Suzuki technicians in NJ taught me.
Thanks man! I don't use quickshifting often since the bikes I ride so it takes me a bit to remember while riding a new bike.
CooL nice review 👍 do you think clip ons will fit on this bike ???

@@EspressoRacer Hey we are all older than your last video !!! Ps: you did drive it in A mode (full power). so a beginner can ride it in C mode 😀
Does it pull as hard in the upper rpms as your cb650r? Like in a roll on race will it pull on your CB?

Yo, Ricky! Like it ain't the GSX 8X, it ain't an EXpresso....it's Espresso, ese (not exe)😂
Thanks!
