Family duel: Suzuki GSX-R 750 / GSX-R 1000
The super athletes from Suzuki in comparison test
The GSX-R sisters are visually difficult to distinguish from one another. But when driving it turns out that the differences in character are even greater than those in price.
The sound doesn’t make a motorcycle, but it says a lot about its character. This is nice to hear with the two Suzuki immediately after starting. While the 1000s hums powerfully, dull and comfortably from their two mufflers, the 750s barks in bright, hard and loud tones from the single exhaust next to its right swing arm. “Does it only sound like that when you sit on it, or does it sound so aggressive from the outside?” Asked a colleague during the photo drives. The unanimous answer from those gathered at the roadside: “It sounds like that from the outside too.”
The engine characteristics of the 750 series, which can be called “the little one” in this comparison, are corresponding, and the torque curves show that very clearly. While the 1000 is already pushing around the 3000 mark, the 750 still seems a little listless in this area – the curve sags. It is a point of honor for a four-cylinder from Japan that the engine is still powerful enough to swim along in flowing traffic at this speed. It really perks up from around 7500 rpm. At this speed, the 1000 is already in the final ascent to the torque peak, which it reaches 1100 rpm earlier than the 750. And while we’re talking about measured values: In terms of specific torque, i.e. the peak value related to the displacement, the 1000 series with measured 110 to 107 Nm per liter of displacement, while the 750 series leads in the measured liter output with almost 174 to 171 hp.
W.The effect of the torque curve and the noise development of the two GSX-Rs while driving is obvious. Even in the tight bends of the wonderful streets around the Stauferberge in the Swabian Alb, the second gear stays on the 1000, where the 750 needs the first. With all the side effects: The increased switching work, the higher engine braking torque due to the higher speeds, the abrupt changes between acceleration and braking make the 750 series a more strenuous motorcycle despite its superior maneuverability. Her sound characteristics provoke, while the big Gixxer conveys serenity on the country road. To which your downright silky engine running contributes a not inconsiderable part.

A comparison of Ducati naked bikes
GSX-R 1000 is equipped. To your advantage. In a direct comparison with the 750, the brake on the 1000 responded more quickly.

Suzuki GSX-R 750.
This statement is of course not set in granite. Depending on whether a brake has already worked in extreme areas on the racetrack or the motorway, how new the pads are or how the minimal distortions in their base plates are, even the quality of identical brake systems can differ from motorcycle to motorcycle.
Despite the difference, both GSX-Rs in this story follow another Suzuki tradition: The standard brake pads only bite cautiously when the load is low and only become more energetic at higher temperatures.
Because the windshield does not rise so high, the driver has to make himself a little smaller when driving on the motorway on the 750 to enjoy a certain wind protection. And possible passengers have it a little more uncomfortable on the back than on the 1000 – they are not really comfortable on either of the two. But nobody would seriously expect that from super athletes of their kind.
In terms of equipment, the only difference between the two GSX-Rs is the carbon coating of the fork sliding tubes on the 1000, while the 750 fork has chrome-plated sliding tubes with a smaller diameter. For 1350 euros less than the 1000 series, the GSX-R 750 is a very attractive offer that, apart from displacement and performance, treats itself to everything that the big one has, from the balance shaft to the anti-hopping clutch and the various engines -Mappings. Even the cockpit has been structurally identical since the most recent revision of the GSX-R 600 and 750.
On the other hand, it should not be concealed here that the 1000 model is about to be replaced and the 2011 model will probably soon be cheaper. Suzuki connoisseurs have already indicated that the new GSX-R 1000 will be revised in the same way as the facelift for the smaller models. Refinements to the engine and weight savings in the range of eight to ten kilograms are to be expected.
CONCLUSION
Those who prefer to drive on the racetrack and don’t have to accept the displacement limits of the Supersport or Superbike class will find the better motorcycle in the aggressively appearing and extremely handy GSX-R 750. The 1000 is more suitable for everyday use and conveys serenity, at least as long as you do not fully exhaust its performance. If you prefer that and are looking for a large GSX-R, you should watch the market next autumn and next spring.
