Suzuki GSX-R750 K8

Our Review

Reviewed: 25 August 2009 by Visordown
I've just got back from the launch of Suzuki's 2008 GSX-R750. It’s a mega thing, brilliant. As soon as you sit on the GSX-R750 you feel at home. The seating position is perfect. Your knees tuck under the flared out top of the tank and you feel sat right in the ...  Continue reading
