2016 SUZUKI GSX-S1000 / GSX-S1000F - SUZUKI Motorcycle

The new Suzuki GSX-S, naked, streamlined upright ERGO crowd.

Now celebrating their 30th anniversary, Suzuki GSX-R supercar has fulfilled the ambitions of generations of sports enthusiasts. As to who owns and match the original GSX-R750, when it was introduced to the United States in 1986, a person, I now adapt to the new GSX-S models with their upright ergonomics target audience.
Suzuki identification audience GSX-S (S on behalf of street sports) as experienced riders aged 40 and above. Bike or do long-distance travel these guys who dominated the sport in the weekend drive, but occasionally at work, and sometimes two.
In 2016 lineup Suzuki GSX-S1000 model, including core naked (with ABS option) and a streamlined ˚F ABS- equipped version is the 2005 GSX-R's engine. This is more long-stroke inline four-cylinder 999cc praise, having Gixxers better than in recent midrange torque. Repair ports, cam timing, and leaf outline all conspire to further improve the low to mid-range torque output. The 44 mm SDTV throttle bodies are those GSX-R, which has the same diameter stainless steel valves titanium has replaced the GSX-R of those valves. Six-speed gearbox has the same proportions, but two teeth have been added to the rear sprocket to reduce the overall gearing. Traditional slipper clutch substituted r / auxiliary device.

Suzuki said its new 2016 GSX-S models produce 145 peak horsepower at the rear wheels, to 10,000 rpm. Torque is good, there is claimed to 78.2 pounds - feet of reach to 9,500rpm speed. Gains in the speed range made out of high-end production at the expense of, this is a low 2,000 rpm red line, which is now 11,500.

The overall result? This is a motor, providing a stable rolling highest gear from as low as 1500 in response to the smooth running of the tractor. Brake lights departure was instantaneous and smooth shift action refers to the bicycle speed to achieve a very smooth fashion, with gear display on the instrument panel.

Engine resonance remains weak, until LCD speed through speed 6000rpm in a tolerable buzz built cone Renthal Fatbar. Interestingly enough highway cruising, the engine rotation 5500 rpm, at a specified 80 mph compact digital dashboard.

In the reporter to take these new 2016 Suzuki, which was held in Monterey, California, I experienced a day of comfort, in the deep upholstered saddle. When I rode north to the famous Alice's restaurant is located in the Coast Mountains, I found the riding position spacious buzzing highway extension, but there is enough physical posture for some good fun and hectic bike along the winding mahogany lined path. I spent two models the same time, and can confirm ergonomic difference does not exist between them, in addition to containing F plus wind protection. Non-adjustment of the screen is a confrontation between the design of the lower stream, effectively reducing the buffet.

As a second Suzuki model has traction control, said the GSX-S use in the current 1000 to introduce the same left V- Strom pole mount switch array system that provides three levels of TC sensitivity , and the calibration is dynamic than in the big Strom. The rider can also set up the switch, even while riding the TC. 3, suitable for wet conditions, saw moderate acceleration on dry roads crossed signals delayed ignition intervention yellow status lights. It took some serious cornering effort set in normal TC and a trip if it will prove a positive track in the pace of the day is useful. TC Turing off the wheel to allow full and instantaneous throttle antics off the ground, at the bottom of the two gears.

The GSX-R style aluminum base exists nails, no glue damping movement intent implied in S's. In fact, it's twin- spar main frame is considered to be more than GSX-R, its gull rocker lighter 是, R. As said curb weight (4.5-gallon tank full) 456 pounds for nude (add 5 pounds of ABS) and 472 pounds of floor GSX-S two flavors of the featherweight category.

KYB fully adjustable 43 mm inverted fork seems to have shaken off the Gixxer 2005 totes provide a firm sports performance and excellent feedback and attack when feeling vertex. The impact is the same brand of garden, various units, using a sloping collar spring preload and rebound damping usability adjustable. Although the impact of the upgrade is worth considering, stock dampers proved appropriate responsibility movement.

Steering light and neutral, while the overall stability proved excellent, even when I rode a Suzuki 236 freeway on scattered irregularities swift pace of the Great Basin in Sequoia National Park. GSX-S1000F lunch following the exchange operation provides more happy, because the smooth flow of highway 84 and we thread on the coast.

In both bike, I have never encountered a lack of cornering clearance, and good braking performance. The monomer Brembo four-piston calipers bite lever 320 mm rotor provides a strong, consistent power and excellent feel. Although Bosch ABS can not be closed, I do not feel the need to do this because the role of the performance of the system in motion a good horse.
Maybe for an old guy like me Gixxer price is the best news. 2016 Suzuki GSX-S1000 will be set on the back of retirement savings is only $ 9,999, when the bike reaches the dealers in late August. For another $ 500 AB S is a wise investment aging reflexes. The hard part is making the decision between the bare body or $ 10999 GSX-S1000F.

Like Alice's restaurant, two new Suzuki for you to get what you want.
