2007 Suzuki GSX-R1000 review from United States of America

"Overrated piece of junk"

What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?

Total mistake, I traded my ZX10 for this crap; it's been nothing but problems, electrical failure starting from the integrated fuel control at 2000 miles.

Followed by the engine oil light at 2800.

Headlight light bulb replacement at 1300 miles, and then again at 1800 miles.

I don't recommend this bike to anyone; you're better off buying a Vespa. I think this bike has been way.. overrated and commercialized by Suzuki worldwide. I'm glad summer is over because I'll be going back to the new ZX10R. Those of you with the Gixer get rid of it, better off crashing it during a stunt before you start getting those problems.
