Hot on the heels of the naked GSX- 8S and fully-faired GSX-8R, the new GSX-8T sits on the same cracking engine platform but in the guise of a naked‘ neo-retro’ that Suzuki says has‘ retro spirit with next generation performance’ and it’ s hard to argue with that. The GSX-8T is a handsome machine to my eyes; I liked the colours, layout and overall looks pretty much as it was wheeled out of the van by the surly delivery driver. But that’ s enough about KR’ s publisher … onto the bike.
ALL GOOD To sum it up straight off the bat, it’ s( almost) all good. The engine performance, braking and handling are excellent, likewise the traditional naked layout and ergo’ s are excellent and comfortable even for my lanky 6’ 2” frame, only the rear mudguard provides
