When i did all of the test rides for my current road bike the Suzuki option was by far the worst of the bunch for many reasons
Over the last week I was at Oulton Park and was hiring the usual ZX636 track bike that unfortunately had issues with a fuel pump so I had a free upgrade to the 2020 Suzuki GSXR 1000...... and I have to say I didn't like it.
- Could not lock into the tank in the same way as either the Triumphs or the Kawasaki's
- The wheel base was too short and could not keep the front wheel on the ground
- the riding position was to far forward which actually gave me neck ach trying to look up and round bends
and I was 8 to 10 seconds a lap slower on a 1000cc then i normally would be on a 636
Add this to my complete and utter love of my road bike BMW F900R which is ace
Think It might be time to start looking at a new Avatar and removing all of the Suzuki branded clothing from my wardrobe........
Its the end of an era
