You're going to be seeing a ton of gsx8r's on the road in the next couple years. I have no doubt this bike is going to sell like hot cakes and be popular track bike.
Not coming with adjustable suspension is a major mistake, anyone who wants to seriously track will take the r7 with the adjustable suspension
@@catfunt5583I agree it’s unfortunate but a lot of people will be swapping suspension anyway.
@@catfunt5583 It doesn't matter. Even if it's adjustable, the R7's suspension will still be inadequate for any "serious track" work
@@catfunt5583 Everyone who seriously want to track can buy something else, it's a sportsbike, not a race bike so it's still going to sell like hotcakes because 90% of people care about the road only.
I'm pretty sure I will buy it in 3-4 years cause I got for first bike a 600s bandit 2002 and it's the replacement for sure (don't get the 4 cylindre but still)
Suzuki has a long history of seeing the competition, quietly analyzing over time what people complaints are, followed by releasing something that not only adresses what people ask for, but beats the competition.
The GSXR750 still stands on its own as one of the best bikes on the market. Im actually very glad mine has no TC or ABS because the chassis is perfect and smooth it's never been an issue in B mode when its cold and slippery.
GSX-8R for performance and R7 for it's looks🔥
I think the ergos on the R7 make it much more competitive on the track than the 8R. Obviously power and torque help and the power to weight ratios is also better but you can lean more on the R7 and really attack corners. Would love to see some track comparisons in the future.
It actually seems the R7 with its lighter weight, more agressive geometry and fully adjustable suspension will probably do much better on the track.
I think the Suzuki also looks better and I love Yamaha looks
Suzuki looks more better
Suzuki the best
gsx-8r all the way
The gsx8r is uglyAF
You have poor taste
@@hexereyand you are a fool
I may, but it certainly isn't as poor as yours@@hexerey
@@hexerey you are a hater
I have gsx8s and its torque is addictive. Can’t wait to ride gsx8r as it’s basically same bike with a fairing. Oh and love the yellow, not sure if that one’s coming to the uk as only seen blue, black and silver here.
If R7 was a 4-cylinder like the R6. It would be a beast
Just like suzuki gsxr 750..... sadly the 750cc era is ended....... suzuki should've kept the gsxr 750 the og motorcycle which completely made suzuki as a brand
This Yamaha has only 73 hp😅
@@midhungopan9270you can still get a naked 750
@@pizarro3 It such a waste for a bike with a handlebar position that supported for speedingb, but using adventure bike machine performance with only two Cylinder. GSX8R is still understandable for using 2 cylinder since it using upperyoke handlebars which is more supported for a long riding, so not an actual speeding bike.
This video was awesome! Best comparison ever. I really needed this, thank you
Great comparison. Just what I was looking for. Thank you
This is the best comparison video I've ever watched. It's amazing! Keep up the good work!
Great review💯‼️
Hi from Italy, beatiful video, TOP CZcams channel ✌️
EXCELLENT comparative !
I will gladly take a bit more comfort over a "Track Day" seating position .
For what it's worth, I dont ride long distances on a daily basis, but when I do it should be fun.
It’s not even that bad I daily my r7 I don’t have any issues with the seat position, gets you ready for a 600 or 1000 anyways
❤ your video. First time watching one. You got a subscriber. Hope you have an R1 video
I like the yellow/black of the GSX8R. Nice comparison video, thanks.
next video will be a NUKE....
"GSX 8R VS CBR 650R" 😊
8R all da way mate
GSX has nothing to go against an in-line 4
Higher US shipping charges for the R7 eliminate most of its price advantage. Will be interesting to see which one has the track advantage but for sure the GSX 8R will be a far better road bike because of its comfortable ergo's and therefore a more flexible/useful bike choice.
Suspension upgrade cost ⁉️ Round up ⁉️
@@LOCKHIMUP2024 So far in all the track testing I've seen on the GSX 8S the stock KYB suspension has provided stable/track worthy performance + the Showa untis on the GSX 8R are claimed to be eve more sporting. Just because the R7's suspension is adjustable doesn't necessarily mean it will perform better so suspension mods may not be necessary. In the end for track use I estimate the Suzuki's downfall will be that it's less agile and more fatiguing to race because of it's extra weight making the R7 the better track choice. I don't think Suzuki is really trying to compete with the R7 at the track though and for any street application I can think of the GSX 8R will probably be superior.
yeah also the R7 is just a MT-07 in fairings or in other words a MT-07R but pretends to be a R7. the suzuki don't claim this to be a gixxer they know it's a street bike. if you want a track bike there are just so much better option out there on the market like a old SV650 which leaves you with plenty of money left over for mods and is easy to ride + extremely capable on track. i don't see the point in having a uncomfortable bike like the R7 just for the sake of pretending like you are some kind of sport bike racer because nobody on a R7 is a sport biker. there was one kid that got a R7 here in my town and he rode around all day long. when i went to the store on my bike he started to follow me and wanted to race me and shit. had to show him who's boss on my naked.
I've owned/ridden all kinds of bikes, and currently have a R7 and still waiting to trade for the R9. It's disappointing and uncomfortable as a commuter, but it does fine in the twisties. I think it's a solid intermediate bike for riders who are ready to move up from a 3-400. Maybe the dude you're talking about IS a new rider and is excited to be part of the club.
@@mr.nobody5028 Uncomfortable ⁉️ How tall are you ⁉️
Man, what a video i just watched 💯👍🏻 well explained, thank you… consider me a new member of the club 🤝
Preciosa la Zuzuki, esperándola en mi país.
Not sure these bikes are really competing with each other. Suzuki seems to be much more touring and daily friendly. R7 seems to be noticeably more track focused. If you don't do track days, the suzuki would make a better option. If you do track days then the R7 with it's lighter weight, more agressive geometry and fully adjustable front and back suspension should definitely perform better.
yeah but it would be financialy stupid to get a R7. att that point you are better of getting something used as a track bike. like a SV650 which is 10x cheaper to crash 10x cheaper to buy and far more fun on the track. it's the most popular begginer track bike for a reason. throw some fairings on and some cheap mods and you got yourself a perfect track bike. i don't see the use in ever buying something as new as a R7 and then worrying about actually dropping it.
@@savagememes873 : 10x cheaper? Dude a SV650 cost $7500. Buy the time you upgrade the front suspension to something decent, you're already at the price of an R7. I've been to quite a few track days at this point, and the SV650 is not even close to being a popular beginner track bike. Maybe like 20 years ago. Lol.
I'm thinking of switching from my honda cb500x to the new suzuki. Just need to sit on it first when it comes to the dealers, but i think it's gonna be a perfect sport-tourer bike.
This just shows that r7 is just overpriced
Yeah what I immediately thought. Too. Alot more goodies an power for couple more bucks.
will still prefer r7 because of the seating position
the same
Not sure how I feel about this model. I would like to see it in person; maybe even ride it at Demo Days. I'll have to check this out further. 🤔
It is a competing model with the gsx8r and ninja 650. I think the 2-cylinder engine + F car position + replica design + sports tourer are the things it has in common.
for this money, Yamaha could have crammed more options into their r7.... Well done, Suzuki..
The new Triumph Daytona is something to look forward to, 94bhp and Triumphs legendary handling.
This or a street triple R 765. Triumph FTW 🙌
Intensity White R7
SUZUKI GSX 8R is best compare Yamaha R7.. 8R handling position perfect
design uprigth position relux a bet agreesive verry Sharp.. Engine SUZUKI number one leget for me Superb..
Yamaha is also good quality the engine the design but verry stressful bike in the road most of Yamaha brand design is only for race track not for daily use remember in the philippines we dont have enough race track we have few
try to rides R7 for 8hours you need medecine after rides.
Love my 8r. The R7 riding position was the primary reason to go Suzuki.
They don't compete, R7 is a sports bike and the GSX-8R is a sports-touring bike. I doubt it is in any way a nightmare for the sales success Yamaha has already had.
YZF-R7, GSX-8R, Ducati Supersport, CBR650R, RS660 are all in the same basic category, although very different pricing and power levels
@@exothermal.sprocket No shit Captain Obvious. It still does not compete or mean that the GSX-8R anywhere close to being "R7's biggest nightmare" (which is just clickbate). People will have very specific needs that need to met when looking at all of these bikes, with different budgets (as you even said) and different brand loyalties, especially when Spending around 9 to 14 k dollars on a bike.
@@101BadBreath Is your nature like your avatar name?
@@exothermal.sprocket awww, your precious little feelings got hurt, bless
@@101BadBreath How could I be offended by someone who portrayed themselves as low life by the way they commented? That would mean I place some kind of value in rotten comments, or believe them to be truthful in some way. That's ridiculous.
Suzuki for ever💛
I really like how the GSX-8R looks but I'm having a hard time getting past those hideous head lights...
Gsx 8r
Awesome video. Thank you for making this. I hate how gay both bikes sound stock. Both Yamaha and Suzuki should do better for the sound. Shouldn’t have to spend $2000 additional dollars to get the sound it deserves.
Between these two, as mainly a street rider, the Suzuki hands down
Both bikes are astonishingly good looking. But at least on paper, both bikes are almost exactly the same weight (the R7 is a bit lighter) and power (the R7 is a bit less powerful) than my old Yamaha XJ6 Diversion! Yes I'd love the GSX8R (winner for me) but in reality they don't offer significant advantages over some older machines. Progress????
Cannot go wrong with either :D
Put yamaha adjustability and riding position on the suzuki and then im interested.
R7 ❤
Suzuki should have charged a bit more and added adjustable suspension. Most of us push along on back roads that tend to be quite rough and suspension that is harder than the 8S really would not be a good move. The GSX 8R looks great with more power, but I worry about the suspension.
If you’re gonna be paying to be on a motorcycle then you should have enough money to upgrade the suspension.
i was very suprised how much higher the grips on the gsx8r are
ill go for YAMAZUKI
R8 for the win for me. But I like Yamaha’s style in the rear part of the bikes but I like that beefy front to
I can smoke them both on my 24’ zx6r 🎉🎉
Well, given that I don't have motocross track around here, and I don't plan on doing any track days on my motorcycle. I'll go with the Suzuki GSX-8R. Plus, I'm fairly new to the riding world, so having a bike would be more upright seating position bigger tank for longer riding between fillups. Plus, rider aids that you can use as you're getting used to your bike. Yes, the R7 is cheaper, has a better rear shock setup, and is lighter. However the However to me, the price is not a big thing, especially when it comes to safety. And comfort. The Yamaha R7 is an affordable track missile that you can ride on the street. While the Suzuki GSX-8R is a street bike the you can ride on the track.
R7 all day baby🤟🏼
GSX8R
Pengen di indonesia naik ini
I prefer the yamaha over tge suzuki, but the numbers don't lie...yamaha once again to conservative. I guess the Aprilia 660 would be the one to go with..
Keep away from Aprilia. Plenty of people have had issues with them. Made worse by their limited reach. Sure enough it's a pretty bike. Probably rides really nicely too. But be prepared for poor reliability.
can you put it against honda cbr650r
So far in the USA, the Suzuki is only $240 higher MSRP.
And exactly why are we comparing a 689cc to a 776cc?
Yamaha R7 is not worth to buying, I don't even want to dream about it.
Please create a GSX 8R vs CBR 650r comparison video.
205kg is crazy heavy
The gsx8r opponent is a full fairing comfort sport like the cbr650r
Suzuki, just for that Yellow🤤, def hard to miss on the street
I 2 migliori mezzi del segmento sul mercato.
can pls make a video of the cfmoto 300sr or ss vs ktm rc 200
Much better to buy either a 4 cylinder 600 or 1000 with way more HP and mod it for better ergos, best of both worlds.
SUZUKING ✊🏼🔥
Suzuki all the way, but i prefer the 8S instead the 8R.
Alot stunners are going buy this bike no doubt with the upright riding angle.
The Yamaha has proven reliability since the fz07 in 2012 nice zook tho
GSX-8R vs RS660? :D
Gsx8r
looks like yamaha puts the money where its meant to go for a sports bike
R7❤ all the way👌💪🔥
Excellent commercial for the Suzuki, which is a pretty nice bike. However I prefer the Yamaha.
GSXR600 would blow both of these away 😂😂
Man as a sv650s owner, I have been waiting for and wanted to love the gsx8-r but just can't. It's so ugly from the headlights surrounded in cheap plastics to the weird handle bars. The 8s looks so much nicer I dont know how they dropped the ball with the 8r. The R7 looks soooo good and has a proven engine, less rider aids (which I happen to like), and is lighter weight. The handle bars on the r7 can also be easily modified for comfort or track use. Glad other people like the 8r but I'm going to have to buy the yamaha.
Both are a bit of a downgrade from a v twin 😂
Its direct competitor is actually the Ninja ZX4r
Daytona 660 vs GSX-8R !!
the yama cp2 engine is just 🤌🤌🤌
Is being an r7 killer a flex?
The 8R is a touring bike unlike the R7.
R7 is better for me
I have the other bike and a heavy scooter trike for the streets, so it's R7 for me.
If you dont know wich do you wanna choose buy a supermoto
Gsx-8r vs honda CBR 650r 🙏
I'll pick that gsx-8R 😎
They both have a glaring issue, those engines.
I think this is worse on the R7 as you've got the uncomfortable riding position without the top end to make up for it whereas the Suzuki is a nice affordable faired commuting bike. Regardless I expect they will both sell well as they look good, have screens and riding modes
My 07 gsr600 will outlast both these 👍
Both are good bikes!👍⚓️
kalo design lebih ke r7 sih
Both like diesel engines, no excitation at all, limited low rpm, boring accelerations.
In-line 4 ❤
Aprilia RS660 enters the chat:
Take the Suzuki in blue. 👍🏻
R7 is beatable buy kids bike. I’m Yamaha die hard fan but that R7 is near crap.
Then comes the aprilia rs660 as better than both of these
That must mean it's also an RS660 killer? Get one prepped and bring it to motoAmerica r7 is 2x champion in twinscup
These videos crack me up. I ride mostly kawi sport bikes, ever one I owned there were videos lke this saying the gxxer or r series or cbr were the kawi nightmare, yet most times none beat mine for 1 huge reason, I have more skill than most as I have 40 plus yrs riding been to a few riding schools for racers and actually raced. I was able to out run bikes with better numbers due to the lack of rider skill on other bike and my skill on my bike. Grab any bike and the close competitors that are about same power weight etc. if handling close then skill is major major factor on who wins any race or fun run in the curves. it is better for riders to find bike that suits their talent and comfort level. Unfortunately if you have not been able to ride the bikes numbers is all you have and that means little. I have been smoed by slower bikes on paper cause rider was truly skilled and vice versa. The largest factor on any sport bike today as in same class all are so close in performance numbers is skill. want to beat the guys you ride with, take intro to racing class learn skills tricks and ride a lot to get familiar with bike and its limits. The right rider can take any 600 700 800 900 1000 and beat bikes that on paper are a bit quicker or faster with just a better skill set. This is something most riders never factor in their size weight and skill, that is largest speed limiter. I am small for guy 5 7 130lbs most 600 riders are 180 plus I have edge by weight alone even if they have equal skill but most do not as most guys I run across have never spent 1 second in a school or on a track, game set match I got all the advantages from the start You want to be faster on your 600 or 1000 get skills you will be faster than if you turbo charge it..other than straight line skill is the big speed booster
R7
Suzuki is a no brainer
There’s a gsx 8r!?
R7🔥YAMAHA
The bike looks weird. Like two different bikes cut in half and just randomly smashed together.
R7 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yamaha anyway🔥🖤
Yamaha R7 is a toy😂
and Yamaha releases the R9. End of story
