Bike Profile

You have to love a tame monster. That's exactly what the Suzuki GSX-R1000 is: an incredible hulk of a machine capable of ripping your heart out with speed that blurs the mind, and yet is so gentle it cradles you in the security of its seat and gives you a ride of a lifetime.

A 988cc engine purrs and growls all at the same time. Weighing in at 444 pounds it is a classy middleweight that won't rip your arms out, or require a forklift to pick up, but isn't so light that it will spin you off at any given moment. It is capable of a raging 152 horsepower and still obediently does your command, sailing down the road, or curving into twisties compliantly. It starts up in a second with a convenient electric starter. This smoothie has no flat spots. It is silky and easy going in a way that makes it nearly impossible to accurately judge your speed as you fly down the road, so beware—when 90 feels like 50 flashing blue lights can be in your future.

One of the reasons this bike is so smooth is it has an amazing suspension providing an easy ride over almost any pavement. Swing a leg over this smooth criminal and take a walk on the wild side without the fear of being destroyed.

Advantages: Great sport bike for any level rider. Lots of very well controlled power.

Disadvantages: Very hard to come by anything bad to say about a bike that moves like electricity but doesn't shock you when you try to hold it.
