    The 2007 Suzuki GSXR1000 is the fastest bike you can buy for under $7,000. It is suprising that this race ready bike is even street legal! The GSXR1000 gets you to super car speeds but only costs a fraction of the price. If you are looking for speed, but have a small budget, this bike is for you!
    One of the most insane bikes you can buy is the Yamaha XSR900, here's why.

      tbh i’m only 17 and last year owned a 50cc bike. my dad owns a bunch of bikes from 390s to 600s to a gsxr1000. i’m often home alone and take his 390 ktm around the country roads in my county. today i took the plunge and went with the gsxr… it ended… well. i did a 150 ish mile run and ive never grinned so much in my life (i was just praying the cops didnt catch me as you have to be 24 in my country to ride one of these) the endless power, the agility, the flickable-ness was just INSANE. i met up with my friends and raced their little 1-liter first cars and absolutely smoked them😂 i felt like a boss and swinging through those twistys at 60 then with a tiny blip of the throttle up to 80 in literally milliseconds is something my 17 year old self only really experienced on the passenger seat. I loved it! my dads is a 2003 gsxr1000 with no ABS, TRC or wheelie control so it felt like a death trap and i knew i had to be extra cautious but it sure was fun😂

    I have owned a 2007 GSX-R 1000 just like this one since 2009.
    Pros: Very powerful. Very fast (even by todays standards)
    Very comfortable.
    Very reliable, low maintenance. Hard to kill.
    Holds its value extremely well for its age.
    Cons: OEM BRAKES SUCK. The original brake master cylinder had a recall & the TOKICO calipers are not very strong.
    OEM steering damper is worthless
    Hydraulic Clutch (pulls smooth but requires service)
    Recommendations: Replace front brake master with updated version.
    Steel Braided brake lines
    Replace oem steering damper with aftermarket (GPR/Scotts)
    Replace dual stock exhaust and catalytic converter to reduce weight and increase HP.
    Bonus: Power Commander & high air flow filter (K&N)

      So true. I just bought an 03 Yamaha R1 and stock this thing runs a 10.17 quarter at @140 mph. The newer models are faster, but only after 110 mph. I don't think I'll ever need to be able to accelerate faster above 110 mph now that I'm 46 and not wanting to see Jesus yet 😂. Besides, the torque of this older motor is higher in the mid range rpms, so it's actually faster 0-60 than the 04 model that makes 173 hp vs my 150. That increase in mid torque is what I'll be using more than that max hp at 13k rpms.

    My gsxr was an 89' 1100. Bought it New. It had a sickening, crushing acceleration that is incredible. It required knowledge of counterstearing as well as what happens when you hit the brake in a counterstear. I went to a few riding courses to actually learn how to ride it safely. I rarely let it loose but there is a 10 mile stretch east of Rudyard Montana you can see it entirely on a clear day....... Not comfortable for any long distance in the riding position you are forced into and I often warmed my hands on top of the cylinderhead. Getting off it after 600 miles in a day will remind you why they make touring bikes. I'd never buy another but I loved the one I had.

    • @Chrisnuzzo76
      @Chrisnuzzo76 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      But the newer bikes have almost no lower rpm power. All that hp is up there in the 12k+ rpm range. The older superbikes were made more for street use and not as dedicated for track use. If you ride against an 03 R1 he'd either be right next to you or beating you up until about 100 mph, and if you spend a lot of time over 100 mph you will definitely be seeing Jesus pretty quickly 😂. Older R1 only has 152 hp, but the dyno sheets show more power in lower rpms than newer bikes with 30-50 more hp. Even the quarter mile times are like 1 or 2 tenths of a second difference, and another reason for that is because your computer stuff forces your bike to slow down.

I killed it 3 times leaving the dealership, dropped it the first time I put the kickstand down, and low sided it on the third day. Riding became an obsession and eventually I became ONE of the best riders in my area. About 2 years and 20k miles later, a close childhood friends of mine was street racing a 09 R1 after a friendly disagreement regarding the power the relatively new cross plane yamaha engine made. He bobbed when he should have weaved and clipped the left corner of a 18 wheeler trailer at 158mph (according to the traffic homicide investigator who pulled the ECM and said that's the speed that the engine shut off at) he died instantly. I live very close to Barber motorsports park, and even closer to 14 miles of the twistiest public road I've ever seen, with the exception of the dragons tail. Motorcycle Drag racing and canyon racing was huge in my area in my teens and early twenties. However after losing several friends I sold my sport bikes and quit racing.

They’re both equally deadly IMO lol, and the liter bikes are just about as fast as the hyperbikes; running around 10 in the quarter and sub 3 second 60’s. As far as any amateur rider is concerned they’re equally as fast in straights. Liter bikes handle better and the hyperbikes are more comfortable. Although I wouldn’t say the 14 is designed for long distances. My hands would start to go numb at 30 mins. The concourse is a better option and only slightly slower.

    I've seen people start on 300's and work their way up to the bigger bikes, I've also seen people go straight for top of the line. I'll agree that there're some people that probably shouldn't be on anything above a scooter, but those big bikes are not that difficult to ride with a little bit of self control/throttle control. It really does come down to the person.
    That being said, riding a slow bike fast can be more fun than riding a fast bike slow.

    Very good review, but according to a couple of sources, the dry weight of the 07 machine was 379 lbs+-. Wet was 423lbs. You indicated 460 lbs. I agree with you when you indicated the 599cc GSXR reaches it's strongest power curve at around 8K RPM. I owned one of my most favorite bikes, a 2006 Honda 600RR and experienced for the first time a similar power curve of it's 599cc engine. Aside from owning a BSA, Honda 450 DOHC, most of my bikes since have been Ducatis. The Honda was my first inline 4 and I was blow away by the power it produced for being only 599cc. The V Twin Ducatis had great torque in all gears, but didn't have that turbo effect like the Suzuki or Honda at higher RPMs. As with the Suzuki, after 7k RPM the Honda also took off like a rocket all the way to red line and from what I recall that was around 14k RPMs. The power was addicting and eventually got me into trouble when I almost killed myself in a very bad road accident. Currently I ride a Ducati 999R and your review now makes me interested in getting another 600 or the 1000 in the year range you featured, affordability being a big factor. However, maybe I might consider a newer one just to experience modern electronics for the first time. Power is a non-issue because the bikes you highlighted had plenty of that on tap, no need for anymore.

I’m from a small town just over the PA border in MD. This time of year I’d be traveling there to visit family, but things being what they are, I doubt my Florida license plate would be overly welcome.

      Maybe so, but it doesnt mean much to be honest since 0-60 hasnt been limited by power for over 30 years now. So its more about a certain rider having a good day. A suzuki RF900 did just about the same time as the GSXR1000 and it lacks 45 horses and weighs about 70lbs more. Place 30 lbs of lead on front axle of the GSXR and it would be even faster 0-60... Thats why the RF900 can match its time, its got a longer wheelbase. Conversly, more modern bikes are too short and even harder to launch.
