Suzuki GSX-S1000F 2016

The GSX-S1000F is basically a GSX-S1000 with which it shares all the geometry, with a bit of added value that pays off quite well. More stability at higher speeds, more wind protection and overall more compatible with the engine's character. The GSX-R engine is still a force, even if it has run out of juice a bit down low. Suzuki also offers a great price/performance ratio here.

Some might be surprised that after waiting so long, Suzuki did not launch the ultimate, uncompromising power naked bike. Instead, the Suzuki GSX-S 1000 with its 149 hp seems almost too well-behaved. But once you ride it on the race track, you quickly realise that the engine is far more powerful in real life and that the rest of the performance of the chassis and braking system is also impressive. In return, it also offers a large portion of everyday and practical suitability - not bad ingredients when you have to cover everything from everyday to race track with a single bike.
