BSB beauties you can buy for the road

In the new MCN, out Wednesday June5, you can read our exclusive report on two stunning machines – the ultimate sports tourer; a British Superbike-spec FireBlade with bespoke luggage and GPS, and the road-going replica of Crescent Suzuki’s BSB GSX-R1000.

Top tuner Russell Savory, the man behind the MCN British Superbike’s Motopower squad, has taken the standard bike out to 180bhp, but he’s matched its increase in power with a host of comfort-boosting features.

But if it’s a match of power, handling and exclusivity you’re after, you should be checking out our road test of the Crescent Suzuki Reynolds-replica GSX-R1000. A near-perfect replica of JR’s bike – take of the lights, plate and mirrors and you might even fool the man himself.
