List the modifications on this bike yosh full system, one less tooth in front, dyno jet kit, undertail kit with no flasher in the back and flush monted flasher in front.
any flat spots etc. around 4000 rpm but get fix with dynojet kit
I had seen better, but I seen a lot worse too, so I could say pretty good.
drop the fork in the yoke 3mm with a bit more compression damping and give 2 turn preload in the back, I'm 6,1 and 200lbs, after these ajustement its feel like I was riding on rail a the track.
sometime its good to have less power, so you could really push the bike to the limit, on small track and small country road I will pick a 600cc anytime. Some people need a bigger bike to feel a man, and sometime they don't realise its like watching a dummy drive a formula one, they don't exploit 10% of the capability of the bike. ps. my pride and joy have been stolen two week ago, so next month I'm gonna ride a gsxr600 2002.
second look tank bra..second look grips...took off all the factory crap!
any flat spots etc.gets up and goes pretty damn good.i have beaten a f4I..r6...zx6r....lotta power for a 600..
Feel, Strengthcould be better but no problems
handels very good
very nice bike for a 600..enough power to make you hang on but i always feel comfortable on one wheel to..I have read they only go 145 m.p.h...for some odd reason mine does 162m.p.h....still very good for a 600..
yoshimura full exhaust system, carbon fiber where ever possible, jet kit
any flat spots.. really hits around 6500-7000
good,could be better but will do
it handles like a baby, best i ever had yet, i mean with a bike!!!
i really liked the bike!!!!!!
List the modifications on this bike blue windscreen, polished frame, blue bar ends. half tank bra.
any flat spots etc. no flat spots that i have noticed. hits really nice about 7000.
Feel, Strength brakes fell good enough for a six. i haven't had any problems yet
best handling bike that i have had to date. all i have riden are 6's
i noticed that the FI lights comes on from time to time. i saw that somebody noted that as well. as i researched i have found that MANY have seen the same light. turning the bike off then on again seems to clear it. i expect the dealers to come out with a comment eventually but until then they dont know either.
MODS: took all factory stickers off and replaced with custom of my likings,new grips,cock pad,
any flat spots etc.It gets up and goes. All these import cars in GA. try to run but get left off the line by 2nd gear. AT 7000 RPM in 1st,2nd,and 3rd it will stand the front wheel about 8 inches off the ground for about 25 feet.AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Feel, Strength Brakes feel great but are a little slow under extreme conditions!
It handles Soooo Sweet. It is like having a big bicycle between your legs at 100+!!!! Takes curves like no other ridden!!!!!!!!
The GSX-R 600 is by far the best bike on the market today! I would only sell this one to buy a 2003 model. Ride Hard and Keep both hands on the bars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
any flat spots etc.
Feel, Strength
For the people having the problems with the FI or the bike cutting off check this site out http://www.mototuneusa.com/gsxr_tip_over_switch.htm The problem might be the tip over switch.
i have r1 undertail/mig high mount/blue shield and blue lights under the plasticzzz
The fuel injection is great and responsive unlike the 2000 gsxr 600 i had
break is about the same
handing is better due to te longer wheel-base
I LOVE THIS BIKE
Full Acropovic race conical system. Dynojetted & K&N filter. Sprockets One smaller at front Two bigger at back. Braided hoses & EBC HH pads. Raised rear end using 10mm spacer on shock. dropped forks 4mm.
Once dynojetted up from 89bhp at rear to 96bhp. Smooth power all the way through, real hard pull from 9000 up!!. Still a little fluffy below 3000rpm.
EBC HH pads excellent with braided hoses especially when warm. Brakes are more durable than me old quacks still solid after two winters and 23000 miles
With the raised back end and lowered front bike turns well fast!! little hairy accelerating over bumps (i have no damper)
Love this bike. Accelerates stupidly quick due to lower gearing. Wheelies off the throttle in second (half tank of fuel) Gettin a gsxr600k1 soon gotta start playin all over again :) cant wait!!!! Hope the new one doesnt CARB ICE!!!!
List the modifications on this bike Blue windshield, blue neon front,back, and engine- yoshi tri slip-on(yeah I know did not have the greenbacks @ the time), Merlin alarm, no caution stickers anymore, rear eliminator, flush front signals and integrated rear signals, custom toggle switch panel on side to control neon, alarm, and intercom system.
any flat spots etc. 2000-4000 rpm could be a hole lot better(i have not changed the sprocket yet) Rest of the range is very responsive
Feel, Strength Better than the CBR's Could be a lot more responsive, but I still can get the back wheel up so I guess no complaints
Handling is #1 out of all other sportbikes I have ridden. Extremely friendly out of corners and you can even go into the corner soft or hard and still is no problem to counter. Ain't nothing goin' to handle the mountain corners like this baby.
I ride every day(rain, snow, or shine) and this is probably the best bike for everyday road use. Can only compare it to the new yamaha r6.
Exhaust: 2 brothers full carbon system Jetting: stage 1 jet kit by Factory racing Gearing: 1 down in front 2 up in rear
Very great bike coming from a '92 gsxr 750. very easy to flick around. A lot easier to ride. My only complaint is that the power curve is always being change with pittsburgh's irratic climate. Fuel injection would be tits. But nun the less this bike literally is ready for street or track.
Nice not too firm can get a little squishy on the front under stoppies. One of the few bikes that you can use the rear brake on. I picks it up out of a turn
Four stars. Can wear rear tire almost to the rim. I weigh 147 and I'm about 5'11 and this bike is easy for me to flick around. I don't have to muscle it like the early 90's gixxers or lean as much like the cbrs. The pitch on the front forks is purfect. You can crack it before a speed bumb and jump it and land a wheelie like a pro. Very light... Very right.
Get ready to buy extra 2 rear tires a season. I wish the previous owner told me it came with 4 free pittsburgh police cars. Damn zone 6!!! You doughnut eating bastards!
Yoshi tri-oval race slip on titanium, BMC air filter and dyno tuned. 105 hp on the back wheel. Yoshi fairing protector, black screen and new dunlop 208's
none that I have noticed she can pull out monos on 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear with no problems at all. Ask the cops about the raw power.
dead on brakes. Can't complain
Like a dream
She's my baby and I would kill for her!!!HAHA
yoshi slip-on, K&N air filters, barnett high performance clutch and springs, factory pro shift kit, zero gravity speed screen, and clifford bike alarm.
any flat spots etc. Power is a very smooth but quick delivery, accelerates very fast from about 5-9 grands of rpms, havent really noticed any flat spots cuz it runs like hell and will pull of the ground at about 50 mph with the slip of the clutch.
Feel, Strength brakes feel kinda edgey and quick to lock up on you, but the strenght is great.
Handles like a charm great agillity love it lots.
the best thing I've ever bought, its my baby
List the modifications on this bike Show-N-Go Chrome D&D full system, gives the gixxer the loudest sound above all! Euro GP under tail kit with led lights and short stalk clear blinkers. Zero gravity tinted wind screen, double plated chrome rims, flush mount turn signals. The reversal color scheme of Black n yellow for the 02 makes everything blend in together better.
any flat spots etc. The bike doesn't lag as much now, has better throttle response with the D&D exhaust. Makes my bike sound and feel more powerful. Improvement in fuel injection for the 02' is a little bit better than last year.
Feel, Strength The stock brakes are not as weak as I thought. Could be better at high speeds, but the bike still stops on the dime. Has a great brake response overall.
As for handling I love it! The Gixxer is very light and aerodinamic when it comes to cornering. Very easy to push it to the max, it has the right amount of power for me. Its just hard for me to keep the front wheel down, wheelies are a lot of fun on a 600!
The Gixxer is the best sports-bike you can buy. Its well worth every penny. The power it gives you is awesome. Great power, killer looks, excellent performance. My opinion to everyone out there with a Gixxer, please do not ride with stock exhaust. Upgrade your bike with my personal favorites, Yoshimura or D&D. With one of these you can't go wrong!
Fender eliminator, no rear turn signals, flush-mount front signals, Yosh exaust.
Quick responce, powerful
can use at anytime for any situation, quick stop or slower stop
Best I've ridden so far. R6, 954, Ninja 500r
All around great bike. Wheelies are kinda hard but can be done with practice. Other tricks are a breeze. Fastest I've been is 167mhp. See ya on One Wheel!
List the modifications on this bike Akrapovic carbon can, dark tint d/b screen, braided brake hoses, all warning stickers removed, ugly black plastic bits trimmed down, flush front indicators, tiny rear indicators
any flat spots etc. Nope! :) Pulls clean & fast throughout the rev range
Feel, Strength No probs as standard. Better feel & response with new hoses
Love it. Can pretty much chuck it about all over the place - takes a lot to get it out of shape
Gotta get the money together for a few track days! Love this bike so much, even though it's turned me into a nutter!
timeing retard eliminator, scorpion end can and a airblade iridium screen
since the t r e was fitted she ran alot better til now wont tick over or run properly below 3000 rpm nothing mecanically wrong so must be the ecu or something
ok in the dry but useless in the wet
spot on enough to embaress bigger bikes
nice bike except its eaten one gearbox and now wont run properly below 3000rpm
List the modifications on this bike yosh tri-oval exhaust, TRE programing, TEK put inline to cancel retard in timing,1st - 4th. -1 on front sproket. METZLER sport-teck! adjustible damper. ebc brake pads, braided lines, motul brake fluid. motul oil additive. K&N filter. x-type chain. iridium plugs.
any flat spots etc. 1st through 4th was sluggish out of the gate. with the computer programing, tek and sproket, it was all illiminated. exhaust and filter let the little beast breath much better. very, very fast for a 600. i recorded 163mph, and my buddy recorded 167mph. *motul oil made shifting smoother.
Feel, Strength not real impressed with the brakes (stock) when i changed to motul fluid, ebc racing pads and braided the lines, the feel was a 100 fold. much more sensitive and faid was nonexistant. plan to upgrade to wave rotors or ebc ultra lights
changing the sproket made it a little jitery in corners, but it is not that bad. one of the best moves i made was the tire change to Metzler sport-tech. made all the differance in the world to me, believe it or not. a hyper-pro adjustible steering damper upgrade has been a life saver. the little 600 comes up in the first three gears at full bore. the new damper stopped those dreadful slaps and wobles.
the 600m is a definate atention getter and now a sleeper of a 600. all mods were under a grand.

I WANT ONE SOOOOOOOOO BAD~!!! Getting my license soon baby...but thinking about starting with a better starter bike, like the SV650, but since the low end is kinda sluggish (so I hear) on the gsxr600, maybe she'll be my new first bike^^
List the modifications on this bike YOSHI RS3 CAN NEW GALFA BRAKE LINES/BEND PADS NEW ENGINE MANAGEMENT/FUEL MAP AS PER YOSHI PROVIDE. VARIOUS AVAIL FOR WHAT EVER BUDGET.
any flat spots etc. REALLY COMES ON AFTER 8 THOU. GREAT INDUCTION SOUND AS IT SCREAMS AFTER 8 ALL THE WAY TO LIMIT
Feel, Strength NOT MUCH CONFIDENCE AS STOCK. NEW LINES AND PADS A MUST BELIEVE ME.
SHARP NO MATTER WHAT LINE YOU PICK AND THE BEST PART IS.. YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR LINE MID CORNER, WHICH MAKES A HACKER LOOK LIKE A STAR. IT ASKS YOU TO PUSH HARDER, AND YOU KNOW THE BIKE HAS OODLES LEFT IN IT.
ALL THAT POWER, WHICH IS ALL AT YOUR DISPOSAL. MORE SO THEN THE GIXXER THOU. THIS BIKE HAS MORE. IF YOU WANT TO UPSET YOUR MATES ON R1'S THIS IS THE BIKE. LOTS OF POWER EASY TO USE.
List the modifications on this bike None
any flat spots etc. Peaky power delivery, not much going on below 10500rpm. Needs to be geared down a little, finds it hard to rev out in top gear. Good for what it is but newer 600s eat it down the straight bits. 6/10
Feel, Strength Brakes have heaps of feel (probably thanks to great front forks). Don't ever seem to have to really heave on the anchors which must be a good thing. 8/10
The best handling bike I've ever ridden. Can't put a foot wrong ever. Have often found myself coming into a corner thinking 'ooh this is a bit scary' only to come out the other side grinning and thinking 'I could've done that quicker!' Quite stable but will wriggle through the bars if you're going flat out over a rough road. 10/10
Feels like a race bike. Very raw and unrefined. You can't help loving this bike it just makes you want to thrash it all the time. Probably not a good 2nd hand option 'cos you just know it's been revved to the moon and back forever.
Yosh Tri-oval bolt-on, black windscreen, euro-tail, and covered in black velvet.
Has a noticable flat spot around 400 rpm but is easy to accelerate right through. Throttle response is good almost too good. People say thats the biggest downfall, it is a little too touchy when on one wheel. But when it comes down to it I know no other bike with acceleration as smooth as a GSXR.
The breaking is the only real week point on the bike. They have pritty good response and work fine until they get hot and start to feel a little mushy. This is when you experience fade which can actually become quite bad.
There are nothing but possitive things I can say about the handling. I weigh 135 lbs and can whip this thing around like it is nothing. It is nothing but steady in the turns no matter how fast you are going. The most important thing is the handling is at all times predictable.
I love my bike with all my heart. I have crashed it once head on into a median going about 60 and still can say only good things about the bike. Especially if you are looking for a commuter and stunt bike in one it doesn't get much better than this. Now don't get me wrong, I do want to trade it in but I am gonna keep it in the family. Now the only decision is 750 or 1000?
no modification yet.
i'm still breaking in the bike. Can't feel all its power yet.
Pretty good brakes.
Super
It stinks that it doesn't tell you what gear you are in. ghazal@san.rr.com
No modifications on this bike yet.
No flat spots. Power feels strong up to 14,000.(As high as I've turned it.)
Feel=good, Strength=good
Handles like a dream.
Over all I'm very pleased with everything.
Bike is stock.
Loves to be spanked.
Good but it does need goodrige lines.
A barge at slow speeds but lets be honest, its never going slow... Good ground clearance is a pain, too good, have to lean past the point of no return to get knee down.
I love the bike... Only one problem is the speedo is broke... Theres a one in front of the other two numbers... You just cant help going fast... Everywhere !
List the modifications on this bike three extra teeth on rear sprocket, yosh slip-on, k&n air filter, polished frame, polished swing arm, polished rims,flush mounts, fender removed, blue head lights, polished bar ends, dark smoke screen, denso irdium plugs, bt-010 on front and rear, needs a jet kit
peaky power delivery, hopefully the jet kit will take care of some of it. But, it deffinately pulls hard above 8500 for a 600. No problem riding wheelies through second.
moderate for factory breaks. Could use braided lines and good pads.
WOW! It takes any turns thrown at it with ease. NOTE: get rid of the donlop 207 it comes with. Highly recomend bridgestone battlaxe bt-010, big difference. Even without impecable handling. Setting your sag makes a huge difference too. It is free and is definately worth the time.
the only flaw is the power delivery could be smoother at times. Great bike, highly recomend for anyone. Excelent first street bike. i'm ready for the 1000.

Feel, Strength,good stoping

List the modifications on this bike none, soon to be adding it to the dumpster.
any flat spots etc. none, as long as you pin it wide open through out the gears. other than that general riding sucks big fatty's on this pig.
Feel, Strength weak when stopping fast from 100 +!
Could be like the 600 rr, now thats a bike!
I will be shit canning this susuki today! I like the new honda 600 rr. So I bought one! Susuki gixxers really suck now. It's a shame, but honda is way better. other bikes i owned, kz1000, x12 96 goldwing, 82 silverwing, 99 busa, honda rebel 450. 74 triumph, 89 harley softtail, 84 moped (tricked out) z 50 , Honda f2, f3,f4, f4i, and one old ass indian.
yosh slip on, k&n, fender removed, uridium headlight bulbs
doggy on takeoff but great power for a 6 when it comes in. sometimes I'll sacrifice the clutch for a hard takeoff
good
great handling. I put pirelli dragon super corsas on it and they grab hard
in response to the F.I. light coming on, mine does it too. I took it to the shop after it happened the first time while it was in warranty, but they blew me off because it wasnt on at the time. I dont know bikes but I worked on cars for 7 years and it sure seems like an o2 sensor the way it comes on after cruising for a long time at steady speed.
List the modifications on this bike I have done no modifications to the bike at this point.
any flat spots etc. only time there are any flat spots is when you are not in the correct gear to meet your need. Other than that response is perfect.
Feel, Strength Braking feels really good. Even when getting on them hard from high speed the bike remains stable.
I have ridden several 600's including cbr f2 and f3's fzr's, and other gsxr's, and this 600 is by far the most supperior 600 I have ever seen.
I have owned a gixr 750, a honda cbr f3, and a yamaha r-6, so I have no loyalty to one brand over another, but I will say after purchaseing this bike I don't think I will get rid of it for a long time. I love it. Also after owning a 750 and ridden some other 750's I don't think I will ever need to go back to those bigger cc's. I only rate it a 9.5 because I believe there is always room for improvement even when your the best.
STOCK
The power is great, the bike hasn't even been broken in yet and the front tire already is trying to come off the ground, FUEL INJECTION
GREAT, Stoppies are beyond easy!
Handling is great, slow speeds of course suck but I guess thats any bike.
I love the bike I havn't had it but about a week and I love it!
No modifications
Only sports bike I ever had, so naturally I was impressed.
Perfect
Only problems were likely due to inexperience.
Topped out at 158 mph with my nothing to carry but my skinny little ass. Only bike I ever had, but hopefully not the only one I ever will have. Thrill to ride always... Never tried pulling wheelies or anything. Didn't even know it could be done back then.
Totally stock , practically no need for mods with 120 horse at the crank.
Power is incredible make sure you hold on when you dial it on in 2nd gear and cruise up to 102mph at 15 grand
Brakes are pretty much average, nothing special there.
Cornering sharp in town or out on the highway, effortless is the only way to explain the way this bike moves around corners.
This is supposedly the fastest stock 600cc bike for 2004, but dont take my word for it get out there and get a gixer between your legs!
List the modifications on this bike: 2 Brothers C4 Slip On. K&N Air Filter Nothing Big
any flat spots etc. Nope, None Gets right up and goes at about 7000
Feel, Strength Not too bad, could be a lot better in the front, but they will do
un-real, corners like a dream
no real issues, great bike, i will never own anything different. If anyone has an answer for a Q that would be great...When i shut the bike off sometimes and go to start it, it will just click, i have to put the bike in gear, rock it frontward a little then try to start it and it usually starts. Any Answers????
List the modifications on this bike: Micron full exhaust.
any flat spots etc. Goaes from 2000, pulls from 6-7000 and flys from 10000 rpm :)
Feel, Strength. Good brakes, what can I say else?
Good handling, I am 6.6 but I feel pretty ok on it, and this bike kinda fits me. Not like R6 for example.And it goes where ever I point it.
Nice, nice. Fast, real superbike :) Little bit rough gear box to 1st - 2nd
Yoshi TRS Oval (Full), Power Commander, K&N Air Filter, Timing Advance 5 Degree, Power Commander, Frame Sliders, Yellow Bar Ends, Chrome Sporttech Windscreen, Flushmount front signals, Removed all warning stickers and ugly plastics and reflectors and chain guard
Lots of power for a 600. Still toying with the power commander for the right map. Could use more power below 7,000 for stunting. Will beat othe 600's and inexperienced 750's.
Quick and responsive. Go Stoppie!
Love the handling more so than any other bike. Very firm and glued down.
Excellent first bike for new sportbike riders. Looking forward to istalling Yoshi Cams and shaving head. Any tips on the perfect power commander map contact armygistud@yahoo.com.

any flat spots etc. quickest 600 i've been on, little sluggish at beginning rpm's but flies at 7000 on.
Feel, Strength braking is good, i was on a 2002 gixxer-1000 breaks don't even compare to mine.
very light fun to ride and handles like a charm
i've been on a r6, zx6r, and a cbr600 and the gixxer is the quickest of them all.

any flat spots etc. Before it was remapped it had a dead spot at 4400-4600rpm and at 11000-11200rpm. By adding a power commander and finding a dyno and remapping it there is no dead spots. But if you are running all stock parts on a 02 you should only have a dead spot at 4500-4800rpm and a K&N air cleaner will fix that. Oh yeah run 93 or higher oct. fuel.
Feel, Strength. Well they are ok if they are clean and warm. When wet or cold they tend to not work as quick as i would like them to.
Boy from right out of the crate the handling on this bike is great. Although if you like to go fast and good handling tune the bike to have more compression and more spring you will have tons more response.
For a 600cc this bike is fast. I got it in Feb 2004 and it was still in a crate, I set it up, broke it in. After breakin added some parts and this thing is great. But the best thing that this bike got was the golden spectra 4 oil. That will improve your engine preformance and you shifting more than I can explain. And if you can find someone with a dyno who can remapp the computer you can gain about 11 more horse with using all factory parts, and do it a lot cheeper than buying a bunch of parts.
stock
any flat spots etc. It has all the power you need!
is very versitible.
Handle better thanm old bike an 2003 R6.
the Gixxer is a great all around bike
GSXR Tank Bra, Vance & Hines pipe, integrated brake/blinkers in rear, 15-tooth front sprocket
like all others, has a flat around 3500-4000 rpm but after that, plenty of oomph
brakes feel pretty strong, if you want something better, go aftermarket
Handles awesome, nothing else i can say
Great beginner bike, plenty of power for a 600, i have never heard of 145mph for a gsxr 600 either, before i dropped a tooth in the front, i got my bike to 173 (according to the speedometer), oh and SRAD rules (=
Yoshimura full system (tri-oval exhaust, headers) dyno jets, custom undertail
Krazy when hittin it about 9,000 rpm, feels like the bike is bike is about to red but you're only at 9,000 rpm. Love its power for a 600, I can do the same damage like anyone else
When at first i had it, it was quiet gay didnt actually brake as much but now i have broken down on it. It seems okay.
Best handling bike i havent seen, can actually be the same as the R6 maybe a little better than the cbr
Have ridden alot of bikes past few years.( 2003 R6,2003 CBR RR 600, 2001 cbr F4i) nothing compare it to this gsxr 600
FULL YOSH EXHAUST,CHAIN AND SPROKETS,K&N AIR FILTER.
PEAKS AT ROUND 6 1/2 RPMS
NEED WORK ON FRONT BREAKS
GOOD HANDLING, FORKS NEED ADJUSTING
WOULD LIKE TO FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH POWER MY BIKE PUTS OUT WHEN IT WAS STOCK,AND CAN I FIT A 1000 MOTOR IN IT.
D&D slip on pipe, second look seat to match the graphics.
Needs more power off the line and the slip on makes crusing choppy. But great power when boogin
good
handles very well (like rails)
sweet bike
yoshimura tri-oval slip on exhaust,-1 on front sprocket,pingel electric shift kit,hot bodies undertail kit,gpr steering stabilizer,vesrah clutch kit.
nice power
i love the handling, but the steering stabilizer made it even better
K&N filter, power commander III, akrapovic muffler.
starts slow, good above 8k
Good enough for stoppies, not too strong to kill yourself when handling too fast.
Great.
The FI error can be solved by replacing a control unit. It's an error that's common with the 2001 model and in Holland it's replaced for free by the dutch importer (if it's impoprted by them). Otherwise it costs you around 200 euro.
stock
especialy good in upper RPM range but not bad for a 600 in the lower RPM range
grate brakes for stopies
handles like a dream
plenty of bike even for an experienced rider
Hindle Aluminum exhaust can. Flush mount front signals, frame sliders, 750 engine swap, manual CCT, re-jetted carbs, k&n filter.
The upgraded powerplant and re-jetted carbs deliver smooth power from idle to redline. This bike screams! Power wheelies in second, clutch wheelies up to fourth.
Braided lines and quality pads make the bike stop on a dime, with a positive, liniar feel throughout braking.
Handles Razor fine. Light wieght makes the bike super flickable, adjustable suspension allows for individual rider preferences. Pirelli Diablo rubber warms quickly and provides superb grip wet or dry.
This is an all around great bike. An excellent mix of Supersport handling and superbike brawn. The 750 Swap makes an already great Supersport bike that much better. A great track ride. Only negatives are the absence of fuel injection and Cam Chain tensioner problems (easily fixed with manual CCT from APE.)
none really just a few things taken off like theres no signals at all and there are frame sliders on it
low rpms=low spots rides nice at 9000-11000 rpms shifts good at 12000-14000 rpms
nice solid fronts back are not as impressive but they work okay
handles like a champ i have rode nothing better
fastest 600 i have been on rides smooth decent suspension good riding position and the fuel injection kicks ass
full yosh trs exhaust, yosh ems, yosh ecu, bmc filter, 520 conv. w/ vortex sprockets, '03 750 forks, steel braided lines, carbon fiber front fender
awesome power, short flat spots @6000 between 2nd & 4th (about to get that tuned out)
a little too strong sometimes! definitely there when you need it
with the 750 forks, it handles like no other
Hotbodies racing undertail to get rid of the "mudflap" license plate holder. with the passenger pegs off and the undertail, the bike looks like it just came from a gp race.
I think 80 mph in first gear is a good start. Thats pretty good for a 600. The only flatspot you will ever feel is from 4500 rpm to 5500 rpm. After that, the dual injector throttle bodies kick in at 6000 rpm. once those hit. Get ready to crap yourself for the amount of fun you're about to have.
Of course being on a bike you have close calls with morons and want good brakes....These stock breaks are the best feeling over the new R6 and zx-636 that i have felt this year. people have pulled out in front of me while i am doing 80, and i have gone down to 30 in just over 2 seconds. and i NEVER use more than one finger. you cant lock up the front wheel with just one finger, but you have an unbelievable amount of stopping power with just one finger. its the perfect mix.
i have many country roads and s-curves where i live, and let me tell you. I have never felt so safe on a bike when doing such stupid things. the bike of course can go so far sideways around a turn that you tear up the side of your shoe, but whats great is the reliability in the bike. i have LEARNED how to slide both my front and rear wheel into a sharp turn. its not just that i am just an idiot but its also that you can trust that the bike will not slide out from under you, giving you as much leaning as you can take, not the bike.
HOPEFULLY YOU READ THIS PART. I AM TALKING ABOUT THE 2006 SUZUKI GSX-R600, NOT THE 2005.i am 6' 4" tall and thats what kind of frame this bike is built for, a tall person. other than that, once the stock license plate fender is gone, and the passenger pegs are off, you dont need anything else. this bike is very predictable and more fun than any 1000 i have ridden, because you dont have to be cautious with it. you ride it as if it was a mini bike. you can hammer on it all day and you know exactly how much more it and yourself can take. this is the best bike i have ever ridden, bar none.
Yoshi S3 end can and tinted screen. They were already on the bike when I bought it second hand. Other than that some lovely cracks and scratches down the right side of the fairing. They were a DIY job I'm not too proud of. (See below). Am thinking of lifting the bars a couple inches for comfort but it's not really in the spirit of the whole "Supersports" thing.
Very smooth when you're on it. A couple of flat spots through the midrange but it takes off above 10,000. Seems a little bit jerky on light throttle openings when pottering through town but see above on how to smooth it out. I was surprised how economical the bike is when you're touring. It'll do 200 miles ot a tank with my better half on the back. As long as you take it easy with throttle ;)
Smooth again but they feel a little bit weak. Have lifted the back wheel up during an emergency stop with my girlfriend pillioning though, so it might just be the feel through the lever. (She wasn't very happy with me after that...)
Ace. Light, flickable, forgiving (usually). Handles bumpy back roads easy but loves the smooth stuff. Makes me look like a much better rider than I am. Have tried fiddling with the suspension adjusters but don't really notice too much difference. I've heard Suzuki didn't think it needed to be adjusted so the adjusters don't do anything. They're probably right. It's about perfect. Only moment I had was when I forgot to switch my brain on before the bike and lost the back end turning out of a car park onto the road. Yes the road was a bit damp and yes I shouldn't have given it full throttle whilst leant right over. By the time I realised what was going on I had to choose between highside or lowside. Lowside it was then. Ended up sliding down the road on my arse right behind the bike. Worst bit was the speed all this happened at. 30-40mph... I'd like to think it was character building.
Can't really fault the bike one-up. It really is much better than I am. The only issues I have are getting sore wrists when riding long distances and the lack of torque when my lady's on the back. I am thinking of upsizing to something more suitable for two-up touring but love the gixxer way too much to sell it.
List the modifications on this bike (None)
My bike has good mid-range power for a 600, the low end could use a little work though.
the stock brakes are mushy but reliable.
Handles like a million bucks, great.
The bike dies on me quite often and even on the freeway, pretty scary. The FI light always comes on, I think there is a bugg in the fuel injection system. Does anyone else have these problems?
yoshimura tri-oval slip on.fender-eliminator.second-look tank bra.targa smoked windscreen.
once you hit 7000 rpm,she rips.
excellent
very stable-confidence inspiring
great bike. I want to install yosh feul-ignition box when I have the money.
