750 is best of 04 GSX-Rs

1 of 1

Awesome power? Pin-point precision handling? You get both in varying degrees with Suzuki’s GSX-R1000 and GSX-R600. So how does the new GSX-R750 fit in?

The answer is a brilliant combination of both that makes it a master of all trades.

Our full group test in MCN, out March 17, rates the K4 GSX-R750 ahead of either the 600 or 1000 in its first UK road test.

On A roads it knocks the 1000 into second with the 600 in third. On B roads it takes second spot, behind the 600. On motorways it’s another second for the 750 (behind the 1000) and on the track it leads the way (with the 600 second and the 1000 third).

Road tester Michael Neeves says: ” The 750’s motor begs to be spanked to the redline at every opportunity. It feels as nimble and flickable as the 600…but with 23bhp extra. ”

This week’s MCN also includes: Why pulling a wheelie could land you a ban for life, a new Bimota Tesi, Triumph launch updates, an interview with BMW’s UK boss, naked readers(!), learn how to lean, your race weekend survival guide, Honda CBF600 versus Suzuki SV650S and Yamaha FZ6 Fazer, Final Edition Ducati 998S tested, Rossi on his F1 ambitions and our preview of the MCN superbike series which kicks off this weekend.
