IS NEWER ALWAYS BETTER? 2015 Suzuki GSXR 1000 *First Ride*

Here is another GSXR comparison video of the 2015 and 2017 GSXR 1000. The biggest difference is the styling and electronics. Either was you can't go wrong!

Both are absolute beasts indeed, but new one looks stunning and has vvt tech for god top end , higher hp etc thats a great deal

Excellent video. I'm a huge Suzuki fan. Stared on a 1996 gsxr 750. Just sold my K5 and bought a 2018 gsxr 1000R in white. I do love the blue. White is what they had. Not a big deal, it's growing on me. Nice to see the previous progression. I wanted one after 2017. It really is a 30 year refinement. This suspension is better than my car. It's fast. It's crazy fun to just let it rip. No rear hugger and no rear seat cowl thrown in like back in the day. That's my only complaint. I don't give a shit about a color screen and Change the can. Perfect

Dude awesome job with all the info you've provided, God bless you brother!👍🏿

I love the classic beefy tail, analog tach, and headlight of the 2009-16, but definitely love the side profile of the new model and that's about it. Prefer either engine and could live with or without the VVT. Old is better for the street. The new one is like entirely dedicated for track and not 1 bit for the street.

From the front i like the older one, from the rear I like the newer. Not a fan of the long exhaust pipes.

Great review Bro! So pumped to be back on a bike again. I bought a 19’ Gsxr 750 back in January, and plan on riding it till January or February and moving up to a 1000. Again, definitely enjoyed your content and insight into the Gsxr 1000 platform. 🤙🏼

It was dumb to get rid of the integrated tail lights and signals in the mirrors. I got a 20 that blue color

[lowlife]

I still like the old gen, the new still hasn’t grown on me, the 17 just doesn’t have it.

Good watch. Great to hear your thoughts. Hope you can do more content. I like the few videos you put out.

The two do NOT make the same hp, MAYBE bine stock, but were talkin with a filter tune and exhaust the newer models put out about 185whp and over 190 on MR12 fuel whereas the '15 puts out about 165-170 with a filter tune and exhaust.

I like both. I do favour the Triton Blue colour of the older model. I had the 2018 750 and it was awesome. Had plenty of thousands but the 750 was sensational around corners. In fact i had the 2016 Kawasaki Ninja H2 before the Gixxer and it was a beast for sure but not overall as good fun as the Gixxer.
I thought about the 2017 Gixxer 1000 for a while but went for my third Hayabusa instead as i sometimes have my wife as a pillion and its the best all round motorcycle in my opinion.
Thanks again for the review mate look forward to more your videos
Cheers from down under Australia 🇦🇺 👍👍

Can someone who's 6'3" and around 300lbs chime in with one and post feedback on how it rides and how you fit on the bike? Because I absolutely love the looks and everything else about it. Where I live tho we dont have any big dealers around here.

[andrewdugdale]

I own the 2015 model and it has ABS. I prefer the looks of the older model, I suppose I wish it had a mileage range that’s all. It’s soo fast however yet so comfortable

[MegaBALLINOUT]

You ain't no average Joe you a professional

[RandysReality]

I like the 2017 and up for sure.. but I like the signals on the mirrors and the rear intergrade on the generation I got. Definitely not a fan of how the front headlights of the older one but like you said it’s better than the 600’s and 750’s for sure! I’m looking into trying to change my front end and cover up that big ass headlight 🥴😂

[wallacemiranda]

I am looking into GSXR! I would get 2015 model looks clean

[fleshpie]

is here someone that owned few gixxers? Like comforwise, is there are difference between 600 750 and 1000 from 2009+ to 2015? IM lokking for a comfortable ( as possible) supersport

This engine still has a counterbalance shaft. It's going to be smoother. The newer model didn't really gain any torque in the mid range, it merely retained the torque, with additional gains up top in spite the shorter stroke engine, different valve train and cam profiles. With the removal of the counterbalance shaft on the new one, more buzz. I don't like more buzz. Personally I'd go with a 15 or 16 with really low miles. Just me.

Hey great video. I had a quick question, what gopro camera mount did you use on your windshield, because I recently bought a gopro mount with the suction cup but it kept making a clicking noise when I'm riding my bike

[jeremybly]

Need you to do a first ride on the 2018 honda cbr1000rr. Preferably with a ecu flash.
