The fact that this bike hasn’t been changed is because it’s going to continue to sell abundantly as is. It’s a good bike and it’s the only one in the 750 class amongst the Japanese machines. I think it’s total badassery just the way it is.
@@slimfit767 Yea doesnt “need” it, but the option is there for abs, wheelie and traction, cruise control, kqs, etc. Point is, they’ve been testing things and trialing things. Suzuki has done nothing but change fairing colors…
The relaxed ergo helps us old guys with bad backs... Since 2011: Naked bikes, Retro Classics, ADV/Touring have become more popular so sales on Sportbikes have suffered and so why invest upgrades on something that's not really selling well anymore. Hats off to Suzuki for even just keeping this old girl available and in play.
I’m be of the old guys with a bad back. I’m 58. No Harley for me!! 1:18 No disc between L4 and L 5. S1 is leaking and so on. Leaning forward on this bike is very relaxing.
a big advantage of the oem not changing a design is that you can find replacement parts much easier. when 🏍️ keep getting changed every few years good luck finding used parts.
Just a little reminder, that the US is one of the few remaining countrys where you can buy these beautys factroy new. Due to "great" emission laws e.g. in the EU, the last model year here is 2015 and that's it. That's the reason suzuki won't spend any money on improving them, since the market share globally is too low. Just apprechiate this amazing toy. Wish i had one in new condition. :(
I’m new to the GSXR 750…and I love it. Coming from a stunt riding background where I rode primarily 636s and MT07…the 750 is much smoother and feels lighter. Digging the content
The fact that it's outdated is the best thing about this motorcycle. It's old school, it's analog. It's exactly what you need and nothing more. No traction control or abs to save you. It will teach you what you need to know. Be a man and enjoy it! You'll be a much better rider than anyone relying on rider aids. Get out there and get after it!
Most of these issues have been addressed by the 2023 model that I have purchased... Damn good bikes best all around in my opinion... Speed of a litre bike with the agility of a 600
Not been updated because it's already discontinued in most of the rest of the world. I think it's dope you can still buy this model in the same spec it was in 2011. If Suzuki brought out a new version of this bike it would end up being much heavier, with more restrictions and emissions rubbish, have ABS brakes that people would complain about and cost a few grand more etc... Even with the latest generation GSXR1000 that's out now, imaging if Suzuki re-released the K5/K6 GSXR1000, it would be massively popular, not because it's more modern or has new tech, but because it's a classic analogue riding experience without all the modern rubbish that gets in the way. That's how I see the GSXR750, an old school pure analogue riding experience from a time when bikes weren't so restricted, which by some fluke, you can still buy brand new, quite a unique thing really.
yea buy 12 yr old design at current prices, I nknow it is not priced at 2011 price yet has 2011 design and tech LOL squids aresquids pay 2023 pruce for new 2011 tech
I was about to tell him the same thing. Putting steel braided brake lines + EBC brake pads makes the brakes feel absolutely spot on perfect, as they should be. I have no confidence issues with them whatsoever after I changed those simple things out.
At least you have more parts available from 2011 - current You're right, our GSXRs need more to turn in than an R6 & ZX6R but we're more STABLE in the corner The Nissin master has FEEL, but a brembo gives more BITE Feel you about the headlights Your bike 🏍 is Amazing looking 👌🏽
Suzuki hasn't changed anything about the Gixxer platform in 25 years because they basically invented the modern sport bike both in terms of looks and performance. The 750 is the perfect sweet spot between a 600 and a liter bike. Realistically, it's all you will ever need for the street.
Yea each to their own but even my k8 corners fast . Fast tip in stable as in the corners brakes are good but do fade ...... Those new models look ugly k8 sexy as but k6 good too . Gsxr750 is the best 600 ever made hands down
I’m 58. Bad bad back. Riding my gixxer actually relieves the pain because leaning forward relieves my back pain. I sit in my chair leaning forward. Suzuki dealer tried to get me in a gsxs 800r or whatever it is. I laughed.
Due to emissions they wont redesign the 750 or it would be slower. I got a 2023 GSXR750Z still loving the shit out of my bike not having any real issues. The ONLY complaint I have about my bike is the handlebar vibration, but I heard that a tune fixes the problem.
I raise my handle bars above the triple clamps on my sport bikes, people say it dramatically changes the handling but I don't think so. Also I can ride for hours without being insanely uncomfortable.💯👌
I've never owned a Suzuki but I think almost every young guy that wants a sport bike wanted a gsxr at one time or another and that bike would look sick if the white on the tank was black and the front white fairing was red. Overall it looks awesome.
GSXR-750 is on my bucket list, because the Pro testers I trust, (Neevsy), love this bike. I'm interested to know what model Brembo master cylinder you will install and the make of your quick shifter.
Love my 2023. Gearing is fine by me. Maybe if I were on a track being continuously on the brakes as much as giving her full throttle, I would notice some fade, but haven't taxed them that much on the street.
I gotta agree with the style update. Headlights to "bubbled" imo. Starting to grow in me since they're less then inclined to give it a make over. I had a 2008 and by far my favorite headlight design they had.
What about the gearing? I want to get a 750 and the first thing I'm thinking of doing is to shorten up the sprockets. First gear takes you to like 80 mph and that seems too tall for my liking. What do you think?
Yea I would say with stock gearing the acceleration through gears after 1 and a little of second feel sluggish. But after sprocket swap… it was a different animal. Power wheelies on acceleration 1-3rd gear
You ever think of getting a white back tyre? Feel like that could look nice since you got a red front one. Sexy bike and it doesn't need any changes at all. just an idea.
The reason why Suzuki hasn’t updated the bike is because it’s been discontinued in other countries. They’re only sold in America so I don’t think they’ll really benefit from updating it from a business standpoint
Which gixxer... curious to know as I have the gsx 750 many mods got me to 116 hp at the rear wheel.... I have to change cams to get a few more ponies...
The rubble this engine/exhaust has at idle is perfect. I'm not sure if there is a 750 (or close) sport bike with a 4 inline that is similar to the GSXR 750?
Yeah lucky to even be able to get them This bike is hugely popular in Europe and they can't even buy one new anymore.... They won't update it cuz sales are too low
Why change what works? It really does't have much competition in the segment. Yes, a 600 will feel more nimble than a 750 lol. Did you bleed the brakes when you got it assuming you purchased new? Always good to do on a new bike.
the 750 is only 7 pounds heavier than the 600 (2025 gsxr brochures) and has more power, how does that make the 600 more nimble? I had a 2013 gsxr 750 and I just paid for a 2025 gsxr 750 which will arrive sometime in mid September. my current ride , a 2016 bmw r1200r is probably the best bike I have ridden and continue to ride, it has a bunch of extras that I barely use, although I use the heated grips all the time in winter.
Can’t believe the amount of ‘if it ain’t broke don’t fix it’ nonces commenting. I’d get that if you were talking about adding one of the stupid extended swingarms, but these are just simple mods.
i got this bike and i regret buying it. working on this bike is so annoying. the fairings snap easy, the inverted forks blow out oil seals easy. massive pain in the butt. motorcycles are supposed to be easy to work on, two bolts off and ur in the guts of the engine. but this bike.... nope. gotta remove 10000 things to get anything done

Indeed, but if you can improve the bike for your intended use then crack in with the mods.

Only need those things when skill isn't where it should be
Yeah but squids do lol
Yes making the reat lower helps or lowering the front forks makes the wheel base shorter and will turn in quicker but will be less stable.
Rear is raised.

that color way is rad tho!

Good vid! Question what rotors did you go with? looking to do the same.
Great video. And info.
You have an actual throttle cable, rare nowadays. Tire profile helps tip in
Yes, and for street riding a 180/60/17 isn’t ideal

As first bike would get someone like gpz500 first so you learn basic then jump on 600cc 750cc
Suzuki does this thing where they make a perfect bike, and then dont touch it for decades.
Valid
What year is your bike. I have a 2006 SV650S and looking to upgrade.
2011 and up is the same
its the best weight bike for new riders lighter the 600's and 1000's

Dig those rotors 👍
Can I ask why the 750 then??? Why not a 1000. Or other brand??
750 is sm better then 600 20 hp more n like 1.5 kg more for 150cc and on 1000cc harder to turn then 600 n 750 feels like 600s
steal braded breaklines would prob make a huge difference for you
It is the only 750 available. I love mine but a ZX10 is going to be next to it in the garage eventually.
Same!!
so what if they use the same look, its better than any of the competitors imo
You aren’t wrong at all
You didn’t know what it looked like before you bought it???

What wheels are those?
Stonned for life
nobody told him that paint job looks horrible.

How much did quick shifter cost

I can clutchless shift, do on my Harley all the time. But it still doesn’t even come close to having a quickshifter. They’re just better!
needs rider mod...
They sell that on Amazon or eBay?
You clean
cool. but you need better audio
Noted… + it was windy outside so take that into consideration
i want a 750
if you change it,it wouldn't be a gixxer

Get braided lines. You wasted money on the rotors.
if anyone wants one i’m selling mine
What more do you fing want, quit your batching and buy something else.
