T
he sleeping giant of the motorcycle industry looks like it's
finally waking. Suzuki is starting to rise after a long Covid-
induced slumber, hitting us with three new variants of essentially
the
same machine before we've got through the first half of 2022.
What we have here is the big S's sportiest sports touring steed yet
in the $13,799 GSX-S1000 GT+, the up-spec version of the $13,149
GSX-S1000 GT released at the same time. The only difference
between the two is the price and a set of 27.5-liter saddlebags that
you can use your ignition key to lock—so you may as well just go for
the GT+ because if you grab a standard machine and fit bags to it
later, it'll end up costing you more than the GT+ does right now.
