2016 Suzuki GSX-S1000 First Ride Review

It’s the little things that make riding the GSX-S so easy, like the sidestand that naturally falls to foot when you want to flick it down to park. The seat is wide enough to give support but narrow enough to aid sport riding. The fuel tank is quite big and tall, so it’s nice to rest an elbow on for some one-handed freeway cruising or just to chill out for a while – and there is no heat from the engine or exhaust to cook you while you ride.

The GSX-S is not overly complicated – it’s got a throttle, brakes, handlebars and a strong engine. These things are the basics we all need to make us smile and I am still grinning thinking about the GSX-S1000.

Good to see that the downsides they found weren't anything to be concerned about

Price-point suspension
Tach difficult to read
Not yet in America

Great article.

When I saw the pictures of the instruments I had a feeling that tach would be a little hard to read. Sucks for guys like me who live by the tach. I'm still buying the bike though

Unfortunately it might even be a bit of a distraction as some of the text is small and hard to read.

I might have to carry a magnifying glass in my back pocket while riding

I am sure they will come up with magnifying console glass so it can be read by us older guys
