Traveled: Suzuki GSX-S 1000

But just the thought of how hard the Suzuki GSX-S 1000 “slams” into a corner overwhelms me, as it did when I was transferred from the steep Intruder 1800 on the day of the Suzuki test drive in Hungary, which is the complete opposite of this sport. car without armor.

This is not a dreamer motorcycle. There is too much anxiety in it, it glows loudly and with lightning speed when the engine spins up in the red square to 10.000 145,5 rpm, when all (1000) horses are released. With the influx of modern roadsters, where many manufacturers are looking for their direction in various engine configurations, riding such a motorcycle has actually become almost a rarity. I loved the softness where it grabs the torque and is soft yet pulls forward firmly and lets you know the famous GSX name isn't glued to the fridge's aerodynamic protection for marketing and good looks. It is a road-adapted GSX-R XNUMX supercar built for fun in corners. Its Renthal wide handlebar fits perfectly in my hands, and although it is powered by a liter engine, it handles (almost) like six hundred. Shifting left and right in the chicane was quick and easy, but most convincing in short turns. The short wheelbase and very upright inverted telescopic forks, which of course are fully adjustable, allow for very tight turns. A real toy for boys who know how to drive a sports bike and actually whistle about the fact that the passenger is not entirely comfortable. In this case, it is better to be alone.
