Suzuki GSX1250FA vs. Kawasaki Ninja 1000

[flufebunekilr]

why is the ninja 1000 low on horse power when compared to the zx 10r there both 1000cc engines from the same company, truly dissapointing unless it could be tuned

aaaaan why am I seeing "Mormon" commercial ????? weird...

That Bike Looks Like A Real Winner. Have A Good Ride.

[vasquez228]

The Ninja 1000 is a beast! And the GSX 1250 looks like the GS 125 with a larger front, hideous!

[Dreadzedan]

the Kawasaki is much more visually appealing.

No need, Ive seen a few for sale on cragslist. I like both bikes, It's just the numbers given for size, Seem they should be in a different class. The K- is 1043cc & the S- is 1255cc. There is a 212 cc difference. Almost a 1/4 LT. If they was comparing a K-250cc & a S- 150cc no one say it's a fair test. That' was my thoughts on the video. I prefer a bike around 600 to 650cc, brand doesn't matter, They just needs to be be fun & reliable, Also get good MPG's. Best, yl

It may very well be the old Bandit, but it's more of a all a rounder than the Ninja. Throw the factory hard bags and top case on it and you've got a doable tourer as well.

[ylism]

There's a big size difference of 1/4 LT over the Ninja, To me that says a lot for the Ninja. It should be much slower, But it's not. In the end both should be fun to ride. That's all that matters, and of course reliability. Only time will tell there.

@ylism Check the forums..On the bandit forums it is extremely rare to find someone complaining of a failure...

[niurou]

ninja 1000 feels much more technologically advanced than the GSX1250FA.

when I look at the gsx1250fa, I see the old bandit 1250.

[JokerKlahmann]

@niurou GSX1250FA is the old bandit 1250 ^^

[sharjawee]

These bikes are like too fat girls dressed in mini skirts ....... they can try as hard as they want but seriously , no body wants them lol

[decayingcorpse]

@sharjawee how do you figure that?

not everyone wants hardcore sportsbikes and the chiropractor appointments to go with them, most people want some comfort with a bit of speed thrown in.

[steady2wheels]

@sharjawee id say they were bikes for people that ride on the street and not on the track. People who actually like to go places, no pretend to a racer

[sharjawee]

@steady2wheels you keep telling your self that ..... what ever does it for you

[steady2wheels]

@sharjawee i will, different things do it for different poeple, just like woman, some people like really focused sportsbikes, some like dirtbike some like cruisers, some like fun bikes they can do a bit of traveling on, but aren't pan europeans. Iv had zx6r's zzr's all sorts

[FrostbitexP]

@sharjawee

Would prefer this than a zx6r or something thats for SURE.

[purebusiness11]

@FrostbitexP I've owned a 2006 ZX-6R, a 2005 ZX-10R, and now a Ninja 1000. The Ninja 1000 is BY FAR the best of all 3.

[dafobra]

I hope that there is a part two to this.. a bit more of the "vs." would be nice!

[alehax27]

the suzuki looks ugly and outdated. Ninja for sure.

[lamilumag]

@alehax27 the ninja looks strange as well - the suzi is classier and a better bang 4 the buck

[MikeW259]

@alehax27 Tis thy opinion :)

The suzuki seems to have a higher smiles per dollar ratio...see the video where don launches the bike from 4th(?) gear.

[89Design]

FIRST! ...for the first time ever =)

[CaptainTurkeyGiblets]

@89Design Congratulations...you probably worked hard for the winnings.I`m sure you will spend many hours later in life telling your grandchildren the stories of how you once was "FIRST".Ahh, how they will look up at you and wonder in amazement about your leet skillz as a master first`er.

Get a life, ya sad cunt!
