But as in life, you can't demonise the "approximate 3/4 litre" concept of the FZ-8 by quickly leafing through the data sheets. That would be a shame, because the 8 has given us a lot of pleasure in the 3,200 kilometres we have covered so far. Contrary to the facts, the 800 is probably the best choice for the average ambitious rider.

The engine from the GSX-R has been stripped of power and given even more smoothness. You don't miss the first, but enjoy the second all the more. All in all, the GSR certainly offers enough potential for every performance level on public roads, and you certainly won't go wrong with it on race tracks either.
