Good, but a little bit of pressure
Is the Suzuki GSX-S 750 a buying tip? yes, sure. It is an unusually handy motorcycle that, with its equally safe and precise chassis, also satisfies beginners (there is an A2 version with 48 hp) or newcomers.The engine is a little short. Actually, it's a great machine that you can't blame much. His problem is that the competition can also build engines, and in this environment the Suzi four somewhat lacks. The aforementioned Kawa Z 900, for example, has to offer me its 948 cc engine and 125 hp simply in any position even more.
Nevertheless: If you are looking for a neatly processed bike for the evening round around the block, which is priced at less than 9,000 euros, the Suzuki GSX-S 750 is very well served. >>> Testbike by MAS - Wilster
Expensive, but good
All peace, joy and flourishing landscapes? Except for the moment of setting up in curves and the feeling that it could get a bit hot in the summer thanks to the curvature on the right knee, there is one more point. The bags of the monster buyer should be deep and well filled, because on the price tag are 11,200 euros. This is cheap, but only in monster circles. A performance-comparable Kawasaki Z 900 costs 9,596 euros, 9,099 euros the Yamaha MT-09.
At this point, the objectivity of the tester begins to get thin. I would take the Duc and console myself with the fact that it saves 6,290 euros compared to the 1200s. That's nonsense, I know. But it's almost as stupid as motorcycling at all.
Gorgeous.
