long term reviews r the best in my opinion!
Definitely.
Neeves again showing he is my favorite bike reviewer. He has a way of conveying the "inner" details of a bike in ways that correspond to my experience on those bikes we have both ridden. Kudos!
Great Video MCN! I'm the guy on the Bike in front of Michael at the the Nurburgring going round the Karussell....😊
Mr. Neeves probably gives the best motorcycle reviews of anybody. Good job mate. I want one of those bikes.
This guy's the read deal, best reviews on the net, honest, succinct, detailed. Feel like I owned the Gixxer after watching the test!! Thank you for an honest review. Cheers and thank you...
Brilliant detailed and honest review, nice.
M Souris couldn't have said it better.
agreed,this is how review for a bike should be
No when he said that the auto blipper is giving him an extra blip only track when turns in after braking he shows how inexperienced he is on track. I gave him the benefit of the doubt at first but then he goes on to say he can't replicate it and it only happens on track. I've only tracked my bike for a year as an amateur and I know what's happening.
@@cognition26 you do know Micheal Neeves has multiple race wins at club level and raced a classics gsxr1100 at Phillip Island
@@markjackson7650 Then why doesn't he realize that when you lean the bike the revs go up? And it's common for a lot of intermediate racers to use this for an up shift.
Nice video. Always impressed with your presenting and articulation of bike reviews.
Always love your long term test updates/review. Really gives a good in depth look on ownership and all of its niggles.
Ive never been a big GSXR fan over the years but Suzuki really have nailed this new GSXR 1000 💯 a litre sports bike id consider in the near future
You should've been. GSXR 2003-2005 had so crazy throttle response and so low mass centre it was really pure joy comparing to heavy and slow competitor gliders. Assembly quality and brakes were way worse than honda, but the engine.... mmmm
@@daniiltimin5396 The K7 is the best ;)
@@smashedlegends unreasonable high.
The k5/k6 is an amazing bike.
@@smashedlegends K5/6 supreme champ. 💙
we need more such honest review on the net. thanks!
after watching the new gsxr and the zx10r i will choose the zx10 over the gsxr because it has a good brake system with ss lines and the paint is pretty good will not fade. thanks mr neeves for the information and drive safe my friend
Your reviews are the best.
Great review. Cannot believe the same brake fade still exists that I had on my K5 track bike.
MCN is by far the best motorcycle media out there.

I love this motorcycle.!!
Very professional job Michael. Your comments on this bike and also on the R1 (2015) and ZX-10R (2016) are all very precise and useful for us on our everyday lives. All Superbikes lack good brakes nowadays. I personally didn't like the CBR1000RR brakes. Maybe we are getting too demanding! :-) Have fun!
Only place I come for a review because adventure and speed is similar, so It's like a trip into the future. Niel is amazing
What a brilliant piece of review right here.... Thanks a lot sir
Gorgeous bike.
Good Honest review Micheal, For someone like me who will ride the Bike purely on the Road it sounds ideal. Most of its Weak Points sound like they are more Track focused.
Sounds super fun and thanks for the personal review!
Gosh; journalist in honest review of new superbike. Nice :)
Great review. Looking forward to the next one.
The GSX-R is one of three bikes I'm looking at as my next/new motorcycle.
(the other two are the BMW 1000RR and the Fireblade SP)
The GSX-R started out as a favourite, but with all of the little things you mentioned such as the brakes (which is a standard thing I do anyway as I'm quite hard on the brakes) the paint being super thin in places etc etc.
They're not big issues by themselves, but as mentioned, on a 14k motorcycle, it shouldn't happen.
So as much as I want to like it, it probably means the GSX-R moves to the bottom of my very short list.
I guess that means it's between the CBR1000 and the BMW now. I just can't get over the a-symmetric looks of the BMW. I know the performance is the most important thing, but I just can't deal with it. Hopefully they'll fix it in the 2018/2019 model which (I heard) should be a big redesign of the bike.
The bike I've unfortunately haven't seen many "big" articles and/or reviews of, is the CBR.
I've always had a softspot for Honda, i've owned multiple and never had a problem with any of them.
At the moment, it's on top of the list. :) (although the BMW is a close second... just fix that damned wonky face)
Will MCN be doing a long term, or "bigger" video on the CBR?
love your accent and your review, best regards from Australia.
Great vid thanks for posting .. I pick mine up this week
King of sportbike
My dream bike
Nice review MN, your affection for the bike comes through, even despite a few gremlins. Could you tell us more about your choice of screen? Is it quiet? Any buffeting? Maybe more weight on your wrists? I’m trying to figure out screens and not getting very far! The new ‘blade has a tiny screen, for example...
Top notch review as always Mr. N. I'm still looking for that job btw...lol...
Your comment on the auto blipper down shift. It gives a extra lunge if the throttle is not closed completely. Under hard breaking into turns down shifting try closing throttle all the way and try it with it on, it will then repeat itself for you.
Still the best reviewer out there!
You claim to be The Missenden Flyer. But the real Missenden Flyer always starts with "Hey Kids"
This is not missenden flyer lol
Wrong channel
You did yourself
Excellent review... thanks for all the detail.
Great honest review straight to the points👌🏽
2018 version has the brakes and autobliper issue fixed.
Nice to hear again about the good old gixx issue with brakes.
It’d be cool if you released the footage of your laps around the tracks especially the Nurburgring 😁
Brilliant review - exactly what I wanted to know
Bike looks absolutely gorgeous, but as for a sport bike in which you can make long trips wouldn't you prefer a Hayabusa?
Such a beautiful bike
Gonna buy one!
Suzuki GSXR, simply the best. ❤️💙
04:02 MY GOD!!!
there's something going on with the quick shift linkage, maybe too sensitive triggering the blip but not shifting so that maybe just an adjustment issue or a replacement unit.
Gsxr the best bike ever built
It has the shittiest brakes and you call it one of the greatest bikes.
@@uttamjeetsingh7451 No, the best ever, live a little and buy a GSXR. 💙
A good objective round up 👏👍
Man i would love to go on a long trip around europe on a bike as well...
Check out Brock Davidson videos about this bike. Just put down over 200hp to the rear wheel
Just noticed the Boeing plane in the background LOL
Great clip as always, guys😊
Quick question Neevesy, do you think the L1 GSXR 750 has more room for the legs then the new GSXR1000?
I'm 6foot7 tall with 2inch handle bar risers on my L1 GSXR750 and I just fit nice, tight but nice.
Sounds like the gsxr1000 has a smaller leg space because of what you said ????
Which one would you take. L1 GSXR 750 or New GSXR1000 thought's??
Beautiful review as usual! 👌👌
yeah you go to La Cité de Carcassonne nice im living here !!
The real question is shall we just get the 750??
Great review! Thanks very much :)
I wonder how Neeves feels about this vs new S1000RR on the street and touring
Sounds like high praise from a bike that hasn’t really impressed anyone in the superbike comparisons. However, as I’m looking for a good street bike to make the work commute, and some fun Sunday rides with, it sounds like this makes the cut!
so which is better? The 2015 R1 you had long term, or this GSXR? I think the R1 is all round the better bike. Better quality, electronics, handling etc. Do you agree?
Michael Davis R1 better on track, nicer noise and looks. GSX-R comfier and more practical for the road.
The fact that he owns it tells it a great all rounder..
I don't think he owns it. He says my long termer since its a loaner for review
they are long term loaner bikes well known reporters get bikes from manufacturers to review.
He said he’s turning the bike back in. It was on loan for a year.
Very very very good review. Can't say very enough times.
Love your work
Can you tell me which bike would you choose between the Zx10r and the Suzuki GSX r 1000 latest model ? Road and track use
my favorite bike
Great bike, dont understand why suzukis are so underrated..
2 gear and speed 8 impressive👍👍👍
8:03 there's a new GSX 125 in the back ground :)
great review, im looking at buying a 2019 one shortly :)
Being an old school biker, I couldn't keep my eyes off it parked downhill on it's sidestand. I just kept on waiting for Neevesy to be standing there while the bike rolled out of shot
That brake lever action is unforgivable - not really 'pinching a brick' more like squeezing a melon
Great review!
Which bike is better on the road? This or the ZX10R?
This was solid, thanks.
Sounds like a 1000cc bike aimed for street riders with the occasional track day which is probably the majority of riders
Great detailed review!
A bit pricey to go on tour don't you think ? About 15km/L ? Thank you for sharing
60 mpg = 26 km/L
Nice review Neevesy!
@5:30 that extra BLIP you talk about sounds like the PAIR system. My bandit does the same thing. Only ever after hard deceleration.
Stop comparing a rusty old bandit to one of the greatest motorcycles ever produced.
@@mariosavva999 One of the greatest motorcycles? Please, this thing is riddled with faults and not an ideal track bike even though that's it's main purpose.
You can disable traction control AND/OR ABS on ANY vehicle simply by pulling the relays... #YoureWelcome
the thing is you shouldn't have to on a 20K bike unlike most others you can switch off individually. Thats the point he was making.
Is that the Skidmarx double bubble screen or the 2 piece TT screen?
Great update
My favourite litre bike is the Aprilia RSV4 1100 factory. But if i was able to afford a litre bike i'd go for that GSXR.
very strong car
So as a road bike its good which its intended to do..
as always, great review, what type of screen did you fitted? thnks
what sport bike do you recommend for beginner ?
Love this channel keep it up
grunty and snatchy you say...Sounds perfect for me ;)
Nice review as expected. Is there a company like hilltop motorcycles abroad/germany ? I'd like to change the exhaust. The old brake the issue
of the gsxr. No top brake definitly. But a least the calipers keep dry. From of 2019 the hayes caliper's of the s1000r (and a few boxemodells) lose brakefluid. Not to mention a few other issues. So the gixxer is the more honest and value bike.
The CASIO display omfg what were they thinking SUZUKI !!!
I agree... Its very idiotic.
I for one, prefer this. Simple, less things to go wrong with, and perfect for the intended market.
It's still a NASA supercomputer compared to the zx10r's dash
@@sivvinod3187 TRUE LOL the ZX10R is a joke now in the super bike industry.
@@HarleyBreakoutGuy even the rc8, which had a Gameboy flextaped onto it called a digital instrument cluster has more advanced features than the zx10
Why does it need a rear hugger? that'll stop the rubber hitting the prius behind in a burn out.
This review made me want to buy the R1...
Two completely different feeling bikes. From one too the other. You wont fit well on both. They are so different.
I'll stick with my "no frills" K2 every time!.
Great info and interesting to watch... lots of informative points, without the nonsense black and white drama review nonsense
Shame Suzuki ain't admitting there's a problem with the auto blipper despite many owners reporting the issue to Suzuki including myself, just wondering what it's going to take for them to put their hands up and say there is a problem
Great review. Is the Fireblade less comfi as road bike than the GXR1000R? Cheers
Excellent, intelligent review
Great review, but OMG that tank sticker, could it be any more wonky ?!
This is probably my next bike or bmw s1000rr
When the bike is set up for the truck it’s beating all your bikes in terms of speed and seemed quite a quite well too. Even the BMW suffers from breaks because they mix mach parts.
Ill stick with the Aprilla still the best bike out of the box and an ECU and pipe put out over 200hp to the wheel.
great review thx !
Very very good review
