You have to feel a bit sorry for poor ols Suzuki,they tick all the right boxes with their new GSX-S,but it's still not enough.
AT THE MOMENT I don’t know whether to feel sorry for Suzuki, or frustrated with them. My bone of contention? Their new GSX-S750. To be brutally honest, it is basically a restyled GSR750. Yes, it gains new suspension, wheels, swingarm and radial brakes. True, it now boasts three stage traction control and ABS. And okay, the engine modifications have seen its power boosted by 8bhp and a bit of character has been injected thanks to internal tweaks and a new airbox. But it is still all based around a GSX-750 K5 motor. Clearly the big question is: why aren’t Suzuki moving on? And that’s the underlying problem with the GSX-S750 – it’s not bad at all, in fact it’s very pleasant, but it just feels a bit like we’ve seen it before.
