Harley-Davidson Fat Boy vs Suzuki GSX-S1000GX

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (2025) and the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is a cruiser with 1,923 cc, 103.3 hp and 315 kg; the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX is a touring bike with 999 cc, 150.2 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 264.8 hp/ton versus 485.4 hp/ton. On this measure the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX is 83% ahead.

In the simulation the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.54 s and the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX in 2.94 s; the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX is quicker by 0.61 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 49.1 m for the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 45.0 m for the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Suzuki GSX-S1000GX stops 4.1 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 201 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 217 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Suzuki GSX-S1000GX. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
