I know its been out for ages but its been in a couple of our adventures and I am starting to fall for its charms (great engine)
Suzuki GSX-8S
- Thread starter EKIMYRF
- Start date
I'm looking forward to seeing this and Tess in action. Also looking forward to seeing the two new retro models, GSX8T and GSX8TT in the flesh using the same motor. I may chop my Enfield Shotgun in for one of those if they look as good in the flesh.
I love my 8R, such a great engine.
It is indeed a great engine in any of the iterations .
Love the Vstrom 800 DE. It just needs cruise and tubeless to be near perfect .

cant wait for the T and TT will have to be extra nice to Sally to get an early go on one
Silly money though .
Think the T is £9599 and the TT £9999 whereas the GSX8S can currently be had for £7400.
Wait till the winter and they’ll knock £1500 off the TT

Looking at the styling on these makes me wonder why the reborn Katana didn’t sell 
I sold a mint one last month, stuck it on here and not even a sniff, stuck it on ebay for more money and i could have sold it 10x the guy whom purchased it was from scotland and just sent a courier to collect, when it arrived he txt me saying he was over the moon and loves it, i actually regret selling it now ffs.
12 litre fuel tank didn’t helpLooking at the styling on these makes me wonder why the reborn Katana didn’t sell
Cheap as chips , I saw one on Saturday for the first time . Felt great to sit on would imagine quite nice to ride .
I saw one of those yesterday (reborn Katana).Looking at the styling on these makes me wonder why the reborn Katana didn’t sell
I thought it was very attractive, way nicer than the original Katanas
Two I know bought them on looks alone and quickly sold them , main bugbear was the stupidly low tank range (sub 100 before getting desperate for fuel )Looking at the styling on these makes me wonder why the reborn Katana didn’t sell
I very much like the idea of a retro version, and the fairing hinting to the GS1000S fairing, but I am really not mad about the black with yellow & red scheme, and as far as I remember, there was nothing in Suzuki's history that was anything like this. Something in blue and white, however, might be fabulous.
I love it when I see a modern Z900RS and have to look twice to see whether it's old or new, because the paint schemes show more than a nod to the original.
Thanks Mike that was a nice video. 
Thanks .. and agree with you on the colours for the TT why didnt they do it full retro Ice Cream Van that black n stripes does nothing for the lines of the bike
Must resist
