Bought one in July. I've had many different bikes. This inline 4 is a gem. Sounds awesome and if you are honest with yourself is all the power you'll ever need. Its vibe free and smooth AF. Love that's its without all the electronic bullshit you don't need. Just twist and go.
@@Fee.1 no knowledge on the honda but I don't believe you can get it up to 120hp, even with tuning. You'd have to spend a lot of money to get it there.

I rode both the 750 and the 1000 at Daytona's bike week earlier this year. The 750 is lighter, and really flickable, whereas the 1000 is a heavier and somewhat harder bike to wield. Hands down the best two bike's I threw a leg over in a long time, and talk about bang for the buck, both are screaming deals. I promptly bought a Phantom black 1000F model upon my return home to Miami. The K5 Gixxer engine was the driving factor, it is simply my favorite liter bike motor of all time. You really cannot go wrong with either of these beasts. Safe riding you all.
@Bunnyshooter 223 You're right, I didn't know that the 750 is slightly heavier. It sure has plenty of power like you confirm, it was a hoot on that test ride I took on it. Enjoy it and safe riding, oh and stop shooting bunnies please🤡.
That GXS S1000F is a dream bike of mine. I hope they keep it going in the US. As a returning rider, I finally went with the SV650, but in hindsight the GXS S750 would have been better for me (*taking nothing away from the SV at all).
I've got a 2018 version with the ABS and haven't regretted it at all, getting over 40 miles per gallon commuting, and none of that is Highway and yes the mpg will dip When you want to hear the intake sound and the Yoshi making noise. In my opinion Suzuki hit the mark with this model in that it does a lot of things really good but not any one thing great or superb. It's just an all-around really good package and you can usually pick them up for under $8,000.
This bike is a hidden gem and massively underrated much like it’s 1000 brother. Unfortunately it’s overlooked because of the MT-09 and Z900 being so close in price but being much newer and sexier.
@@Godisgood2023 Means nothing. Keeps the bikes more affordable than being made in Japan. Many manufacturers like Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Triumph, Ducati, etc have factories in Thailand.
With the current market Z900’s and MT09’s are marked up to $12,000. Not the humble GSXS 750 though. Just checked my local dealer, they are asking MSRP flat, unlike the more sought after Yamaha and Kawasaki. So the GSXS is really a value right now
@@sleeper.simulant7327 Good to know. That said, you could buy the new GSX-S1000 for less than the MT-09 or Z900 with markups. My local dealer has a $1000 discount advertised, so that basically takes off the normal fees. I’d gladly pay sticker for that bike! The 750 is about $2750 less expensive, but the 1000 is a much better value.
Over the years I've had a bunch of different Suzuki's including GSR750, GSXR750, SV650S and GSXR1000. I've loved them all but gotta say, the GSR750 (effectively the same as GSXS in this vid) is my favourite in terms of comfort and over all fun. I feel like I can take off at the lights fastest on this thing without popping a wheelie. Obviously it's not as fast over all, but the mid range power is sick and the top end is still super nice. I love the GSXRs for style, and performance, but as he puts it, the GSR/GSXS is a wicked working mans, every day bike. So fuel efficient, so smooth, feels super light, and so easy to work on when you need to change the oil and all that stuff compared to a fully faired bike.
First rode this when I was in India. It's genuinely an easy bike to ride, regardless of your skill level. As long as you don't pop the clutch every shift, there's no rear wheel spinout. Center of gravity and balance point is perfect for me. Only "issue" I had was the bikes pickup on 1st gear isn't ideal in heavy slow moving indian traffic, other than that, it is a good bike.
Finally got to test ride a three year old GSX S750 with 16k on the clock. Dealers don't seem to have demos these days and sometimes not even stock! Loved it. Much wider through the engine than my twin 500 with a higher seat and 14 more kgs. However the rake on the front forks is steeper and it felt light and very flickable. Very settled and smooth. Gear box slick. Plenty of power through mid range around town, lots if you let the revs climb. Did a roll on in top at 60kph. Smooth and felt quick enough, then suddenly I was up on the car ahead. I had found the torque and HP curve! Most impressed by the clutch, throttle, power, gear box interaction. Found it intuitive to ride smoothly from the get go. The Suzi auto throttle on clutch release is a nice touch. Got blips on down changes smooth immediately. Smoother than my twin! I think the clutch friction zone and quick revving four help. Box smoother into and out of 1st and 2nd. Only downside was the wind at speed. 100kph was ok. At 130 my helmet was lifted up and pushed into my face in an unfamiliar way. Did not like it. Perhaps I should try a semi tuck and pull my chin down. Maybe a fly catcher screen? Ran out of space and had to move through lanes and exit. Did not try twisties but imagine it would be settled. Did not test mirrors. The tester bike had tiny bar ends. Felt blind. Nice bike and great value. Very impressed. Would be a perfect commuter where I live and weekend toy. On my list against the MT09.
To me, the cool thing about this bike and the way they tune the engine is that it puts down the same HP to the rear that the supersport 600’s do but it has a lot more torque than any of them. That means it’s much more mellow, capable, and comfortable around town but you can still rev it up and get crazy like you can on a 600 if you want to. Very good bike, especially for being well under 10K.
It's about the same HP as the CBR600 or R6, but the ZX6R and Gixxer 6 have 10-15 more and 35 pounds lighter but yes more instant torque-- also revs more like it's 750R counterpart(same engine lol)than a 600, which is a good thing as that 750 is smoother while retaining higher rpm explosiveness. It's a beast of a bike for the price indeed and what most people miss when comparing to it's direct competitors is that it offers true sport bike handling unlike the yamaha or kawa or even the street triple. The bike is so planted in the corners something like 80% of a gixxer which is ridiculous for a naked and it's so easy to hang off the bike. Suzuki's oft criticized non-innovativeness gave riders a low priced, street practical gixxer for all intents and purposes and Yamaha gets praised for a poorly designed wheelie machine it's amazing how people perceive and review things.
Oh and can someone make a decent forum for this bike! They have the well populated gsxs1000 forum but this bike needs its own community! Come on guys!!! 💪🏾💪🏾
I love my bike I got the GSX-S 2022 and I’m 125 pounds. I can control that bike like a bicycle. The power is just crazy. Sound is beautiful, when I heard it I was like damn.
I think it has "just enough", ABS and traction control adjustable to 3 levels. I leave mine with the ABS on and traction in level 2, level 3 is so sensitive that undulations on bad roads causes TC to cut power. I think level 3 is really only for icy conditions - even wet roads it seems excessive.
You amount of technical data and expertise opinion you cover is staggering!!!! Unbelievably executed. I can feel the bumps in your voice. Literally gave me the feeling of the ride!!! You have mastered and set the bar for how a motorcycle should be reviewed.
I use to live in the area where you were riding Vista California and Gofer Canyon before you get to the 15 Freeway. Nice riding and nice weather! Great review!
I have the 2k19 version, put about 11k miles on it so far. Love almost everything about it... brakes suck, that's it's weakness. So far longest trip in one go has been 9 hours and it did great. Edit: MPG average for me commuting has been about 45
I got a 2020 for about what he said out the door. I have to agree with you on the brakes and I get about the same in the city. I replaced the headlight with LED as well. It's a great value for the money.
@@anxiousappliance Nope, just how they are from the factory. They worked, which is the best compliment I can give them. Not good brakes, by any means though.
I got mine (2019 brand new) last year for 10k USD. Everything in Sweden is more expensive though when it comes to vehicles. Mine was already lowered from 11k USD due to sitting still for a year in Japan. I do wish I could have afforded the 1000cc one though. I really love it, cant wait for warm weather again.
I definitely wouldn’t pass through those last 2 cars at 3:45 when they already started driving and turning in the corner. When I watched him do it I had an Eek! moment.
The intake sound alone of this bike is worth the price. I had the previous generation and I never wanted to get rid of the stock exhaust because I didn't want the sound of the exhaust to overpower the ecstasy of that intake. And i heard this newer generation sounds even better. EDIT: Also, 1st gear hits about 62 MPH. I never used more than 3 gears unless I was on the interstate. It likes to cruise at about 6k which happens to be right around where the power starts to get fun. Cruising around in 6th gear at 50 mph is just using this engine incorrectly.
10k for an R3, which i have right now. Great first bike, but now I need more. So in the maintime I'm gonna install a T20 turbo in my current bike. Insane prices to buy a bigger one.
You guys in the U.S are so lucky, you have a wide range of bikes and they are not so expensive. In India we don't have a wide variety of big bikes, and the ones we have are very expensive because of 100% import tax, we have mostly commuter kind of bikes, and scooters.
@@joeyg29jgjg Because the government wants to protect local manufacturers from foreign competition, which is actually good for the nation, but it sucks if you are a biker, who wants to get their hands on bigger cc bikes which are mostly imports, and cost twice as much as what they cost in the US.
GSX-S750 BS4 got discontinued here in india. I inquired in september, and was told by Suzuki customer-care that only V-Strom 650 BS6 is coming by the year end.
Back when I was buying my last bike in 2017 I test rode this bike, GsXS1000R, SpeedT, SDR, XSR900, MT10 and S1000R. I ended up with the latter - and still have it 43000km later (right choice) - but the GSXS750 was third behind the SpT. I thought it was a better bike to ride than its 1000cc sibling. Great little bike and at that price it is a cheap highly capable commuter you would take the long ride home on
This review is totaly on point imo. I love that this bike feels more analogue in comparison to other much more tech advanced motocycles that are out there. I wish it had a bit more torque down the low revs but coming from the Vtwin school, I kinda have to get used to let the rpm go higher before shifting but but that's just me who needs to get accustomed to I4s. I easily get 39+ mpg, even with a bit of spirited riding. I'm not a fan of the fascia.. a bit too Mangaesque for me but this being said, when I ride I don't see it. I think this bike is a great bang for the buck!
Hi Adam, Thanks for a complete and honest review. I am a new rider and trying to decide between the Suzuki GSX-S750 or Yamaha MT 07? Thanks again and take care.
Mr. Waheed...I want you to know how much I just overall, enjoy the evaluations you do on these rides !!! I may have been to the point of ignoring most tests, as boring...but you've really jazzed 'em up with good info and good presentations !!! Thanks !
Just be aware those tires are designed more for the track and less for the street,but yeah they'll be way nicer than the Battlax or Sportmaxx. My 1000cc would eat them up in about 1000 miles but could actually get 5k+ on a 600.
I get ~50mpg on mine if I keep it under 90mph on the freeway. Ride it like a normal human being and 160miles out of the tank is not out of the question.
@@NudaMan I had a hornet as well. Great bike that could do everything. Upgraded it a speed triple 130bhp. Pretty much everything great about the hornet but with amazing low end. I've got a Gsxr1000 160bhp now but it's a bit overkill.
I dunno the difference between traction control per company, but I rode my GSXs the other week in a 43 degree day, powered out of a turn on cold tires and it immediately kicked on and saved my ass..so w/e it does it works lol
I went S750 as well. Do not regret it one bit. Interestingly I was actually looking into the mt07 instead until I randomly came across this one and fell in love. I tried the Z900 at the dealer, only thing I liked was the seat height. It is lower so it makes the bike feel lighter. I’m 6’1” with 32 inseam. Needless to say, for the msrp, it’s a bit much. I got mine on sale for 6600. Now dealer has them back at msrp price, I honestly don’t think I would’ve gotten it for msrp price
I went 2020 Z900. Has abs, traction control, large color screen, led headlights, led tail lights, led blinkers, weights 460lbs (same as 750), 125hp, 73tq, rider modes, Bluetooth connect, great brakes and great suspension. All for $9200 out door here in Michigan. Suzuki needs to update more to be bit more competitive. Either way, go ride both so you can see what you like best!
@@adamprater6216 nice choice. Though I think the Z900 is more of an MT-09 competitor. Those are impressive features. When I was looking those were not there.
The low rev assist is likely helpful/appreciated in heavy traffic I think. Certainly shouldn't be necessary for the riders that are experienced enough buy this bike though.
@@HeyAddieImTojo if you aren't used to it, it feels like throttle input. If you are being light on the throttle or there is slack, it's annoying. Like I said though, you get used to it.
Haha it's funny how a few seconds into watching certain videos i can tell it's filmed in my area just by looking at the sky,colors,scenery,etc.. Cool vid, first time here, north county resident here. 👍
I wish y’all would stop doing that in traffic. No reason for it, you are risking your life and not thinking of others when doing so. I’m a rider, but I respect others on the road and don’t play with my life like that. Other than that, great review
I got the ‘20 one. I don’t like how Suzuki fails to advertise it well. All the attention has been going to the SV650. I didn’t even know this bike existed until I found it randomly on Cycle trader. I was set on the MT07 until I found this one. And even better, got it on sale for a lot less than msrp. This is a really underrated bike. I just wish they’d lowered the seat height by like an inch so it would feel lighter
you are better off with the SV.. it has a faster take off. the one I had topped out at 114mph. the fuel mileage alone made up for the lack of top end. the SV was averaging 60MPG on medium riding and if I took it easy I was getting 70MPG. but hard riding,,really hammering on it, I was still getting 50MPG out of the SV. the GSX-S750 lucky to get 30MPG on medium riding.
@@grumpysquid i was getting 72mpg riding super easy,, keeping the sv650 under 45mph. I was getting around 60mpg on my daily driving,, running up to 70mph. When i was playing around on it,, dogging the shit out of it i was getting around 50mpg i have since traded the sv650 in on a GSX-S750.. i wish i would have kept the SV.
@@grumpysquid it has gotten better. I put a power box on it and it helped a lot.. im getting mid 40 mpgs now. And the power increase in 1st thru 3rd is awesome. I havent had a chance to open it up,, but ive had it up to 109mph.
I've been thinking of buying this bike for a couple of years now. When I test rode it I found a couple of things that could use some improvement. Small things, eg. the sidestand is quite cheap and flimsy. It could use LED lights and indicators and I wish the rev limiter would be 250 RPM higher so you could enjoy that nice howl for a bit longer. I found myself hitting the limiter quite often. Also the rear seat could be just a tad further back so there would be a bit more room to change position if / when needed when riding.
I just Sold my Show winning 19 z with ABS , Yoshi Alpha T , Rad guard , La-Corsa bobbins, Carbon tank cover and Bright white Light Bulbs which made a Big Difference at Night. Best bike by far in it's Class , Highly Recommend it..Great Power which saw me on back wheel changing from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd @_11500 Rpm hitting a small incline.
I would still like to see a LCD developed with the absolute contrast of LCD that can generate moving smooth-moving obects on the display without ghosting or blurring.
Need help, I’m around 6ft tall, would you recommend this bike over Triumph Trident 660? Price is similar, Trident is visually interesting but I think gsx is the beast engine wise, also a bigger bike. Hope you’ll help with decision, thanks in advance!
I'm looking at the same bikes too. I'm leaning towards the GSX-S750 because it has enough power to grow with and you'll probably never get tired of riding it. Also, that good ol' Japanese reliability of engines. And it feels more accommodating at our height. Best bet is to find some dealerships and sit on them to get a a feel for what feels best. Both are still awesome bikes
Is it just me or I find the noise of the bike reduced than before? As in the mic is more focused on Adam than the bike...personally like to hear these bikes and hence, equal sound weight to both man and machine. But good video as always🙏👍
@Bunnyshooter 223 absolutely man, thnx for the suggestion. I have already watched a lot of pure sound and pov videos of this bike. Currently, I am enjoying some pov videos of the new trident 660. That is one sweet sounding bike too.
@Bunnyshooter 223 I have cbr650r with full exhaust and it sounds the best. As you say induction noise is loud and awesome also. I'm getting praises from other riders including Harley boys of how good it sounds
I felt the 1000 was MUCH more comfortable than the 750...but then your get a generally bigger twitchier bike that isnt going to be as much fun on the road : /
Here’s my question…get something like this or convert a gsxr 600 into a naked bike? Love my bike has 30k miles should I just remove fairings get rid of clip ons and install handlebars?
Hey Adam, how about choosing between this 750 and the Kawasaki z900? I think the Z900 seems more comfortable in the show room, plus it's a lot more bike for $1000 or so more! I loved the demo ride I took on the Z650, but not sure I want another fizzy 4 cylinder. I've been riding much bigger V twin and a CTX700 the last few years and find myself liking the parallel twins with 270 degree cranks more than 4 cylinders like the Bandit 1200 I rode for about 12 years. Looking ahead four years or so, I'm trying to decide among smaller ADV/Sport touring bikes and standards (650-900cc). On my radar are: Street Twin, Speed Twin, Trident, Z900 (regular and RS), NC750X, CB500X (pre '20), Tracer 7 (fingers crossed on import), MT-07, and the 1100 Rebel or (depending on price) CB1100X. I have a 29 inch inseam, ride most weekends and occasionally do short touring trips, I like quick bikes but not the most important aspect for me. I mostly want an upright motorcycle that has or can be fitted with wind protection that has enough power for its weight to be fun. Any thoughts?
awesome tft... This has 3 levels traction control that seems to have some throttle modulation. The engine is so tractable, it isn't really needed. A wonderful machine - a little harder edged than the kawa..
Thanks for doing this review. Kind of a sleeper. I felt the distance from seat to handlebar was too short, so i bailed on buying. But since you are a tall feller and fit fine, I was probs wrong on that.

Gear box slick. Plenty of power through mid range around town, lots if you let the revs climb. Did a roll on in top at 60kph. Smooth and felt quick enough, then suddenly I was up on the car ahead. I had found the torque and HP curve! Most impressed by the clutch, throttle, power, gear box interaction. Found it intuitive to ride smoothly from the get go. The Suzi auto throttle on clutch release is a nice touch. Got blips on down changes smooth immediately. Smoother than my twin! I think the clutch friction zone and quick revving four help. Box smoother into and out of 1st and 2nd. Only downside was the wind at speed. 100kph was ok. At 130 my helmet was lifted up and pushed into my face in an unfamiliar way. Did not like it. Perhaps I should try a semi tuck and pull my chin down. Maybe a fly catcher screen? Ran out of space and had to move through lanes and exit. Did not try twisties but imagine it would be settled. Did not test mirrors. The tester bike had tiny bar ends. Felt blind. Nice bike and great value. Very impressed. Would be a perfect commuter where I live and weekend toy. On my list against the MT09.
To me, the cool thing about this bike and the way they tune the engine is that it puts down the same HP to the rear that the supersport 600’s do but it has a lot more torque than any of them. That means it’s much more mellow, capable, and comfortable around town but you can still rev it up and get crazy like you can on a 600 if you want to. Very good bike, especially for being well under 10K.
It's about the same HP as the CBR600 or R6, but the ZX6R and Gixxer 6 have 10-15 more and 35 pounds lighter but yes more instant torque-- also revs more like it's 750R counterpart(same engine lol)than a 600, which is a good thing as that 750 is smoother while retaining higher rpm explosiveness. It's a beast of a bike for the price indeed and what most people miss when comparing to it's direct competitors is that it offers true sport bike handling unlike the yamaha or kawa or even the street triple. The bike is so planted in the corners something like 80% of a gixxer which is ridiculous for a naked and it's so easy to hang off the bike.
Suzuki's oft criticized non-innovativeness gave riders a low priced, street practical gixxer for all intents and purposes and Yamaha gets praised for a poorly designed wheelie machine it's amazing how people perceive and review things.
Oh and can someone make a decent forum for this bike! They have the well populated gsxs1000 forum but this bike needs its own community! Come on guys!!! 💪🏾💪🏾
Odd comment/request...... As my mom used to say...."is your arm broke?"..
Handle it boss...
I love my bike I got the GSX-S 2022 and I’m 125 pounds. I can control that bike like a bicycle. The power is just crazy. Sound is beautiful, when I heard it I was like damn.
If you don't mind me asking, how tall are you?
@@county_bear9509 not that tall. I’m 5’9”
Terrific bike for the price. I especially like the lack of all the trick electronics.
I think it has "just enough", ABS and traction control adjustable to 3 levels.
I leave mine with the ABS on and traction in level 2, level 3 is so sensitive that undulations on bad roads causes TC to cut power. I think level 3 is really only for icy conditions - even wet roads it seems excessive.
Im new to bikes. What are examples of electronic gimmicks??
If you don't have a lot of experience with a motorcycle clutch, then you should not be on a 750.
Very true
Totally, go for the busa instead
@@beerdedwanderer Just make sure it's got a turbo
@@beerdedwanderer Good one lol
@@beerdedwanderer Or a B-King!
The most comprehensive review of this bike to be found anywhere on the net. Thank you very much. You helped seal the deal for me!
Love my gixxus750. Best bike for daily riding in the class IMO
No wheelie? I’m crying. Give it the beans!
@Tony in Tasmania They are hard to master and feel and look cool while doing it.
@Tony in Tasmania because they are one of the coolest things you can do on a motorcycle.
GIVE'ER THE BEANS BOAH
You amount of technical data and expertise opinion you cover is staggering!!!! Unbelievably executed. I can feel the bumps in your voice. Literally gave me the feeling of the ride!!! You have mastered and set the bar for how a motorcycle should be reviewed.
I like my 2018 gsx-s750, it is a fun bike.
I love mines too
Same
I use to live in the area where you were riding Vista California and Gofer Canyon before you get to the 15 Freeway. Nice riding and nice weather! Great review!
I have the 2k19 version, put about 11k miles on it so far. Love almost everything about it... brakes suck, that's it's weakness. So far longest trip in one go has been 9 hours and it did great. Edit: MPG average for me commuting has been about 45
I got a 2020 for about what he said out the door. I have to agree with you on the brakes and I get about the same in the city. I replaced the headlight with LED as well. It's a great value for the money.
Upgrade the pads. EBC HH and the brakes are amazing now.
Pad upgrade, steel lines and if necessary, a new master will run you less than 800$ if you do it all yourself. Solves the brake problem
I think the brakes are really good. Good feel and power on the front, nice power on the rear. Maybe you have glazing or oil on the rotors.
@@anxiousappliance Nope, just how they are from the factory. They worked, which is the best compliment I can give them. Not good brakes, by any means though.
Adam your style and content make watching your videos such a pleasure. Thank you.
I got mine (2019 brand new) last year for 10k USD. Everything in Sweden is more expensive though when it comes to vehicles. Mine was already lowered from 11k USD due to sitting still for a year in Japan. I do wish I could have afforded the 1000cc one though.
I really love it, cant wait for warm weather again.
Always happy to see your hair free ranging away
Nice vid of a very underrated great value bike. It's got so much potential for upgrading but is also totally fine as standard as well.
Yoshimura alpha -T is cherry on the top of it. ❣️
I did a Delkovic on mine and she sounds amazing. I have the 2015 model
Have a Gp growler on mine. Incredible sound.
I put a M4 on mine:)
@@bartmcalister4957 maybe you liked it better.
@@jimperry4420 i loved alpha t so much never thought about another one.
I can't believe how close Adam gets when riding through city traffic.
I keep waiting for mirrors to be ripped off!
Something we have in common here in the Phillipines.
Strange how people in the states get freaked out by riders Filtering through traffic its the most advantageous benefit of riding a bike
just wide angle optical illusion, i'd say. It's not that close IRL. I could be wrong, though. :)
I definitely wouldn’t pass through those last 2 cars at 3:45 when they already started driving and turning in the corner. When I watched him do it I had an Eek! moment.
The intake sound alone of this bike is worth the price. I had the previous generation and I never wanted to get rid of the stock exhaust because I didn't want the sound of the exhaust to overpower the ecstasy of that intake. And i heard this newer generation sounds even better. EDIT: Also, 1st gear hits about 62 MPH. I never used more than 3 gears unless I was on the interstate. It likes to cruise at about 6k which happens to be right around where the power starts to get fun. Cruising around in 6th gear at 50 mph is just using this engine incorrectly.
I’ve got one and I love it. The price is amazing and in NZ a couple of grand less than it’s closest competitors.
I have it. It’s great. Go get one.
I sold mine for a 250cc dual sport. I tell myself I don't miss it. But sometimes I do..
Why? I already have a 765 Street Triple RS.
Got one last March, its my first bike and the rider assist was truly helpful while riding through traffic.
I wanted to, but it`s $25k in my country.... goddamnn =(
10k for an R3, which i have right now. Great first bike, but now I need more. So in the maintime I'm gonna install a T20 turbo in my current bike. Insane prices to buy a bigger one.
No wheelie?
Won't happen with the TC on. It's also anti wheelie and launch control the way it works.
You guys in the U.S are so lucky, you have a wide range of bikes and they are not so expensive. In India we don't have a wide variety of big bikes, and the ones we have are very expensive because of 100% import tax, we have mostly commuter kind of bikes, and scooters.
Just curious why is the import tax so high?
@@joeyg29jgjg Because the government wants to protect local manufacturers from foreign competition, which is actually good for the nation, but it sucks if you are a biker, who wants to get their hands on bigger cc bikes which are mostly imports, and cost twice as much as what they cost in the US.
We do have GSX S 750 in India and it's fairly priced. Also, they pay a lot of money in insurance (specially in Canada)
@@moviestar5883 We dont have this model in India, the earlier year model Gsx-750 used to cost rupees 7,46,000 on-road, which equals to $10,037 USD.
GSX-S750 BS4 got discontinued here in india. I inquired in september, and was told by Suzuki customer-care that only V-Strom 650 BS6 is coming by the year end.
Back when I was buying my last bike in 2017 I test rode this bike, GsXS1000R, SpeedT, SDR, XSR900, MT10 and S1000R. I ended up with the latter - and still have it 43000km later (right choice) - but the GSXS750 was third behind the SpT. I thought it was a better bike to ride than its 1000cc sibling. Great little bike and at that price it is a cheap highly capable commuter you would take the long ride home on
WAAAAAHEEEEED rockin' the glorious fro!
This review is totaly on point imo. I love that this bike feels more analogue in comparison to other much more tech advanced motocycles that are out there. I wish it had a bit more torque down the low revs but coming from the Vtwin school, I kinda have to get used to let the rpm go higher before shifting but but that's just me who needs to get accustomed to I4s. I easily get 39+ mpg, even with a bit of spirited riding. I'm not a fan of the fascia.. a bit too Mangaesque for me but this being said, when I ride I don't see it. I think this bike is a great bang for the buck!
It reminds me a lot of my Yamaha FZ8... man, I do miss it.
Seems like this would be a good option over the gsxs1000 since Im sure the 750 has all the power one could ever need.
Hi Adam,
Thanks for a complete and honest review. I am a new rider and trying to decide between the Suzuki GSX-S750 or Yamaha MT 07?
Thanks again and take care.
Which one did you buy?
Mr. Waheed...I want you to know how much I just overall, enjoy the evaluations you do on these rides !!! I may have been to the point of ignoring most tests, as boring...but you've really jazzed 'em up with good info and good presentations !!! Thanks !
Can’t wait till next summer, gonna buy this bike!!
vintage motorcycles I would love to see on MC Commute = Yamaha 550 Vision, Honda VT500 Ascot, and the original Honda V45 Interceptor.
Kenny, I would love to see an MC vintage commute on my old favorite...a mid-80s Yamaha Virago
🙂
id like to see a Honda Hawk GT (NT650).
2003 SV1000S
@@eldritchshiner that was one sweet bike. funny they still build the sv650 but not the 1000.
I nominate the Honda FT500 Ascot
Ill take the GSX s1000
Lots of cool bike for the money! Reliable with tons of fun and performance ! Great review and Good Job Suzuki!
Would you rather have this over an mt-09 power and performance wise?
I run Q3+ on my 750 and love it miles beyond the Battlax. The profile on the q3 make the bike lean in soooooo much better and rides way more spry.
Noted!! I've heard great things about the Q3+ and am due for a new tire in the rear so I think I'm going with that one next! 🙌🏾
Just be aware those tires are designed more for the track and less for the street,but yeah they'll be way nicer than the Battlax or Sportmaxx. My 1000cc would eat them up in about 1000 miles but could actually get 5k+ on a 600.
this is my dream bike. Second is the Triumph Trident 660cc 2021 model.
That's gonna be nice!!! Top notch quality in the details I'm sure as well!
95 hp is plenty for 95% of riders. Maybe 99%.
Shite MPG tho.
I get ~50mpg on mine if I keep it under 90mph on the freeway. Ride it like a normal human being and 160miles out of the tank is not out of the question.
I think between 100-150hp is the sweet spot for road bikes
@@willspeakman2461 130hp on my Aprilia RSV Mille & 100hp on my Honda Hornet 599 lol that’s plentyyyy
@@NudaMan I had a hornet as well. Great bike that could do everything. Upgraded it a speed triple 130bhp. Pretty much everything great about the hornet but with amazing low end. I've got a Gsxr1000 160bhp now but it's a bit overkill.
Will Speakman - My sweet spot is 115 at the wheel.
I rode one of these and a GSX-S1000 on the same day. This disappointed me and the 1000 scared the shit out of me . FZ-09 was the Goldilocks
I like the bikes that scare the shit out of me. It’s like having a divine experience. Lol
I liked the FZ09 but I did not want to stop for fuel so often. Tiny tank.
@@patw9175 fair point. Seems like a common issue with modern bikes.
Please post more videos of you tearing up those canyons! Esp the onboard camera (maybe its your chin camera?), love seeing it
I love the sound of this Suzuki motorcycle
I dunno the difference between traction control per company, but I rode my GSXs the other week in a 43 degree day, powered out of a turn on cold tires and it immediately kicked on and saved my ass..so w/e it does it works lol
Kawasaki z900 or gsxs750? Similar cost. Which one would you get?
I went with the S750 mainly because of the electronics. The Z900 has some more power though.
I went S750 as well. Do not regret it one bit. Interestingly I was actually looking into the mt07 instead until I randomly came across this one and fell in love. I tried the Z900 at the dealer, only thing I liked was the seat height. It is lower so it makes the bike feel lighter. I’m 6’1” with 32 inseam.
Needless to say, for the msrp, it’s a bit much. I got mine on sale for 6600. Now dealer has them back at msrp price, I honestly don’t think I would’ve gotten it for msrp price
I went 2020 Z900. Has abs, traction control, large color screen, led headlights, led tail lights, led blinkers, weights 460lbs (same as 750), 125hp, 73tq, rider modes, Bluetooth connect, great brakes and great suspension. All for $9200 out door here in Michigan. Suzuki needs to update more to be bit more competitive. Either way, go ride both so you can see what you like best!
@@adamprater6216 nice choice. Though I think the Z900 is more of an MT-09 competitor. Those are impressive features. When I was looking those were not there.
Z900 all the way. It's not even close. That Kawasaki engine is fantastic!
The low rev assist is likely helpful/appreciated in heavy traffic I think. Certainly shouldn't be necessary for the riders that are experienced enough buy this bike though.
More of a hindrance, but you get used to it.
@@MikeB-ng3ol it's nice in stop and go. Just ease out the clutch and skate around
@@MikeB-ng3ol why would it be a hindrance?
@@HeyAddieImTojo if you aren't used to it, it feels like throttle input. If you are being light on the throttle or there is slack, it's annoying. Like I said though, you get used to it.
It was annoying AF, one of the few things I really disliked about it.
Haha it's funny how a few seconds into watching certain videos i can tell it's filmed in my area just by looking at the sky,colors,scenery,etc.. Cool vid, first time here, north county resident here. 👍
I wish y’all would stop doing that in traffic. No reason for it, you are risking your life and not thinking of others when doing so. I’m a rider, but I respect others on the road and don’t play with my life like that. Other than that, great review
19:27 is my new message alert :D :D
With left over discounts available, you can get a GSXS-1000 for a few $100 more.
Update the headlight, shrouds and exhaust and you’ve got the class leader.
I got the ‘20 one. I don’t like how Suzuki fails to advertise it well. All the attention has been going to the SV650. I didn’t even know this bike existed until I found it randomly on Cycle trader. I was set on the MT07 until I found this one. And even better, got it on sale for a lot less than msrp. This is a really underrated bike. I just wish they’d lowered the seat height by like an inch so it would feel lighter
you are better off with the SV.. it has a faster take off. the one I had topped out at 114mph. the fuel mileage alone made up for the lack of top end. the SV was averaging 60MPG on medium riding and if I took it easy I was getting 70MPG. but hard riding,,really hammering on it, I was still getting 50MPG out of the SV. the GSX-S750 lucky to get 30MPG on medium riding.
@@redhytech are u serious?? That contrast in MPG is shocking
@@grumpysquid i was getting 72mpg riding super easy,, keeping the sv650 under 45mph. I was getting around 60mpg on my daily driving,, running up to 70mph. When i was playing around on it,, dogging the shit out of it i was getting around 50mpg i have since traded the sv650 in on a GSX-S750.. i wish i would have kept the SV.
@@redhytech 30 MPG on your GSX??? That is INSANE
@@grumpysquid it has gotten better. I put a power box on it and it helped a lot.. im getting mid 40 mpgs now. And the power increase in 1st thru 3rd is awesome. I havent had a chance to open it up,, but ive had it up to 109mph.
I've been thinking of buying this bike for a couple of years now. When I test rode it I found a couple of things that could use some improvement. Small things, eg. the sidestand is quite cheap and flimsy. It could use LED lights and indicators and I wish the rev limiter would be 250 RPM higher so you could enjoy that nice howl for a bit longer. I found myself hitting the limiter quite often. Also the rear seat could be just a tad further back so there would be a bit more room to change position if / when needed when riding.
Adam: Mirrors good
The left mirror: ǝɹǝɥʇ ollǝH
That kept annoying me the whole video hahahahaha
Tooth smackingly good. I was on the fence with this and the Z900 or the CB1000r for a very long time. Tough decision when they are all awesome
Well engineered solid bike. But I just can’t stand all the naked bikes with the Transformer headlights🤮
As usual a great review by you, very clear and thorough 👍
Thank you for the vid. Love your detailed and thorough review of every aspect of the bike. I appreciate it. Makes me this much closer to getting it.
I just Sold my Show winning 19 z with ABS , Yoshi Alpha T , Rad guard , La-Corsa bobbins, Carbon tank cover and Bright white Light Bulbs which made a Big Difference at Night. Best bike by far in it's Class , Highly Recommend it..Great Power which saw me on back wheel changing from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd @_11500 Rpm hitting a small incline.
Hopefully the USA will get the 2021 European colors. They are beautiful.
I would still like to see a LCD developed with the absolute contrast of LCD that can generate moving smooth-moving obects on the display without ghosting or blurring.
I was about to get the mt09 and now thinking about this. Just found your video
Will you tell us about your beef with the barber shop?
Lol!
Biggest Fan From Pakistan.
Need help, I’m around 6ft tall, would you recommend this bike over Triumph Trident 660? Price is similar, Trident is visually interesting but I think gsx is the beast engine wise, also a bigger bike. Hope you’ll help with decision, thanks in advance!
I'm looking at the same bikes too. I'm leaning towards the GSX-S750 because it has enough power to grow with and you'll probably never get tired of riding it. Also, that good ol' Japanese reliability of engines. And it feels more accommodating at our height. Best bet is to find some dealerships and sit on them to get a a feel for what feels best. Both are still awesome bikes
So no more wheelies and backing it in?
I bought a 20 gsx-s750 and after 1000 mile traded in on a z900. The suzuki was a better looking bike but the z900 is amazing!!!
I picked up a used Gsx-s750 with 500 miles on it - maybe for the same reason. Thank you!!!!
I think it looks pretty cool. Like something a henchmen in an action movie would ride with an uzi
Its an underrated gem of a bike, the engine is pure gold, its heavy in the paper but not on go
Is it just me or I find the noise of the bike reduced than before? As in the mic is more focused on Adam than the bike...personally like to hear these bikes and hence, equal sound weight to both man and machine. But good video as always🙏👍
I noticed that too.
@Bunnyshooter 223 absolutely man, thnx for the suggestion. I have already watched a lot of pure sound and pov videos of this bike. Currently, I am enjoying some pov videos of the new trident 660. That is one sweet sounding bike too.
The sound of the bike wow
what sound? it's dead silent
@@povilaslondon Yea, needs an exhaust!
All Suzuki il4 engines sound amazing
@Bunnyshooter 223 I have cbr650r with full exhaust and it sounds the best. As you say induction noise is loud and awesome also. I'm getting praises from other riders including Harley boys of how good it sounds
Cool review. Choice between this and the new MT 09?
Been wondering the same thing myself. Supposed to go test both tomorrow so I guess I’ll see first hand which feels better to me then lol
Be sure to check out the yoshimura channel. The alpha t slip-on is awesome and transforms the sound of the bike.
love your reviews man! Ride safe my fren
I felt the 1000 was MUCH more comfortable than the 750...but then your get a generally bigger twitchier bike that isnt going to be as much fun on the road : /
Here’s my question…get something like this or convert a gsxr 600 into a naked bike? Love my bike has 30k miles should I just remove fairings get rid of clip ons and install handlebars?
Highway rides do time lapse of lane splitting :)
Hey Adam, how about choosing between this 750 and the Kawasaki z900? I think the Z900 seems more comfortable in the show room, plus it's a lot more bike for $1000 or so more! I loved the demo ride I took on the Z650, but not sure I want another fizzy 4 cylinder. I've been riding much bigger V twin and a CTX700 the last few years and find myself liking the parallel twins with 270 degree cranks more than 4 cylinders like the Bandit 1200 I rode for about 12 years. Looking ahead four years or so, I'm trying to decide among smaller ADV/Sport touring bikes and standards (650-900cc). On my radar are: Street Twin, Speed Twin, Trident, Z900 (regular and RS), NC750X, CB500X (pre '20), Tracer 7 (fingers crossed on import), MT-07, and the 1100 Rebel or (depending on price) CB1100X. I have a 29 inch inseam, ride most weekends and occasionally do short touring trips, I like quick bikes but not the most important aspect for me. I mostly want an upright motorcycle that has or can be fitted with wind protection that has enough power for its weight to be fun. Any thoughts?
Thank God you already changed the position of your cam mount
found a '15 w/ 300 miles for $5800. whaddya think?
I got the 2019 gsxs 750 black edition and it’s an awesome bike to ride. 👌🏻
You're riding style is so much safer compared to your collegue (the younger guy).
Damn. One of those mirrors is flipped the wrong way and it's really killing my OCD lol
I have an SV650... Am I missing out on a lot in regards to this 750 ?!
That’s my question! I’m trying to decide between the two which one I should get!
I have a 2009 sv650s. This has 95 HP and the 650 has 72 so 30% more power…
I’m debating between a GSXR 750 and GSXS 750z tough decision!
This or svartpilen 701? 😉 I know your answer, but good to hear you in a good mood today hey. Always my favourite!
Austria euro stuff is garbage compared to Japan
@@vivimu Fact
For $500 more the Kawasaki Z900 is superior machine. Power modes, traction control, ABS and that awesome TFT display.
awesome tft... This has 3 levels traction control that seems to have some throttle modulation. The engine is so tractable, it isn't really needed. A wonderful machine - a little harder edged than the kawa..
Thanks for doing this review. Kind of a sleeper. I felt the distance from seat to handlebar was too short, so i bailed on buying. But since you are a tall feller and fit fine, I was probs wrong on that.
They make a windscreen and rack for the back for this bike.
