      does it pop up pretty easy bro?? lowkey want the gsxr 750 for that purpose hahaha

      Gsxr 750 is gonna be way more power but probably less torque, also way less comfortable haha ​@@batmotontiktok

    Hard-core in-line 4 sport bike riders Won’t like this comment, but this bike is enough to keep you happy on the street and the track and that’s coming from a guy who rides a GSX-R750 if I didn’t already have an awesome bike, I would buy this one, I think it’s going to do well this year in Moto America

      The only draw back is it has the Gixxer name without sounding like a Gixxer.

      Which of the two would you choose if you were buying a new one and didn't have either? The 750 is tempting as well lol

      @@AlmostLakai94 the 8R is $3,000 less than the 750 & although I’ve never ridden one I’m sure it’s perfect for street or occasional track days, definitely way more comfortable and more practical for STREET riding, I would definitely buy this bike if I were in the market

      @@jimmansi9046 I did a little more research after I asked and realized the 750 isn't like the 650s and has much more race positioning lol. Definitely leaning towards this instead at least til I'm more comfortable on sport ish bikes 😂

    As much as I really dislike the front end of the 8S, that sports fairing makes this look a bit more presentable. Think I'd certainly consider sticking with Suzuki with this as an option!

    75hp. Is that all. I have a 1985 Honda cbx750 that does 93hp. A 2011 FZ8 that does 105hp. I’d have thought around 100hp was a good number for a balanced bike.

    Does this bike sit more upright than your traditional gsxr? Seems like the bars are a bit higher. I have a bad back and I can’t do the traditional sport bike position.

      My issue is that there is no way it handles aswell as an sv650 but it has almost the same peak power

    • @farmoboy83
      @farmoboy83 Před 2 měsíci

      ​@@thisguy8100dont look only into spreadsheets and test one. You would be surprised how strong this engine is and well it corners and mainly breaks. Love the sv650 but in my country a 8s costs only 1500more and is miles away in terms of quality suspension parts, brakes and technology. Would buy a new sv650 in a heartbeat if the cost was not more than 6500eur.

    • @williamrae9954

      Over engineered for reliability... go to the NW200 in Ireland, just watch how fast the SuperTwins go for 30mph exiting York Corner to the top of the hill...unbelievable pick up,and go

    Clip ons?

      Sort of. Based on the arrangement, I think they are clip-ons but being that high they offer the same position as a classic handlebar.

    Evotech must have read my comments... those ant like antennas for mirrors can now be junked, mirror blanking plates are now available...they ruin the look of the bike...now someone make a nice tail tidy, somewhere, half between standard and where every other is at on the market at the moment, factory is too long,all the others do not look right!

    This bike is disgusting. 75hp at the tire is a beginner bike, not a middleweight. Also, its disgusting because its a Suzuki. Needs 3-4 cylinders. Get a real bike, not a budget twin.
