  • Whats not to love about the Suzuki GSX-R 600? Revs to 15K RPM, sounds like an F1 car at full chat with a nice exhaust and has very usable power on the street! I love the 600 class genre and unfortunately, they are disappearing very fast so while I had the chance, I had to review this beauty.. enjoy!

      Triumph Daytona 675R. Best looking 600 and a great all rounder. The 675 triple howl is nicer than on the new 765's and it rev's higher.

    I have this same bike and its totally fine also going slow around town. But it will still perform when you wring it out. Suzuki engineered the engine very well. Many supersport bikes as we know dont do well at low speeds. I can cruise on 2 lane rds in 4th or 5th gear no problem. Then drop a gear and still get all the power i want when i want it.

      @@mihaelgx6443 my experience with Suzuki has been very reliable. My first bike was a 98 suzuki katana. Was very reliable, even with carbs. I sold that to go faster and bought a 96 cbr f3 with carbs and that broke down on me in 2 years. Now i have an 06 gsxr 600 and it runs great and its the lightest of all 600cc bikes. And its pretty much the same bike from 06 to now, with only the headlights changing in 08 and again in 2011. But its beautiful so they did good not to change it. And 600s of 10, 15 years ago make the same power of 600s now. They dont develop the engines like they do literbikes. I like 600 supersports cause they are lighter, easier to ride, and more comfortable, while still being plenty fast.

    I want the full blown track spec bike though. Suzukis pinnacle of engineering. Rode the 600 at work and it's such a smooth and beautiful sounding machine. Connects with the soul.

    I wanted to buy a used CBR954R as my first sport bike last year, but could not really find one in my area, then I ended up with the cheapest alternative I could find, just to get by until I get a CBR 954, which turned out to be a 2001 GSX-R600 and I am totally in love with the bike and that engine. Its almost 24 years old, but it runs so buttery smooth and after 8000 RPM it is actually quite powerful. I will run it at least one more year and fix it up over time. Last month I checked the valve clearance, next up is new fork oil and new tires. Then I can corner it a bit more confident next summer. I mostly had single cylinder bikes before and I am really surprised how easy everything is to get to and work on with this bike.

    yeah none of the 600's have changed lol. the zx is the most recent with 2013. gsxr is based off a 2005-6 engine, CBR is 2007/8. R6 is like 2006. they add electronics but otherwise all these engines are basically the exact same for 15 years, but there's also a reason the gsxr engine is legendary to a lot of riders lol. even the 750 won't bog down in 6th gear at 30mph. (25 tho yea a bit)

    Today I found out, if my info is correct, the zx6r, cbr600, gxr600 are not available in my country in 2021. The R6 however, you can still buy one in 2021. Grtz your 🇳🇱 fan

    • @PetroHead
      @PetroHead  3 роки тому +2

      You're correct.. In EU, because of regulations, they are cancelled and soon in U.S. they will not be sold anymore either. As for the R6, they are selling the remaining stock and then that will be gone as well.

    • @RutgerMulder
      @RutgerMulder 3 роки тому +1

      For the R6 dealers can sell old 2020 stock and you can ride that on the public roads. The 2021 R6 can also be bought but you won't be getting a license plate for it so it is track only. So yeah this is pretty much the end of an era.

    GSXR 600 is great on the track trust me, but It´ll take a some time getting used to the GSXR, you need to rev it like you try to break it...running same times as my 2012 ZX6R (which is the most powerful 600 i´ve heard) Not really sure that no changes have been made...since the two 2018 I have feels alot more powerful than the 2013 model I used to have. Also I seen differences in the front suspension. would highly recommend putting lowest front sprocket you´ll find since they are really high in gearing from the factory.

    I currently ride a GSX-S750. I been riding for 1 year and 1 month at the time of writing this comment. Took the MSF Course, etc. Would a GSX-R600 be a good switch from the GSX-S750 or should I go from the GSX-S750 to a GSX-R750. I don't want loose power because the GSX-S750 is a pretty powerful naked bike. I seen that the 2021-2022 GSXR HP is reported to be 126-128. Im not sure if that is accurate and I don't want to buy it only to find its underpowered. Whats stopping me from the GSX-R750 is Ive only been riding for 1 year and a month so Im not sure if its someone that is over powered considered my riding experience.

      You wont loose anything but low end and mid range with the 600. But if you keep it rung out itll be faster than your gsxs... the gsxr600 is the faster bike but it takes more effort. Honestly i think youd be fine on the 750.

      Check out these videos on some other 600s, too. Not sure if you've checked out other bikes yet, but they give you some solid info that can help you make a decision.
      IMO whatever the best price you can find on a used one in good/great condition with as low miles as possible, I'd just go for that, but make sure to give them all some thorough research and listen to what people have to say, especially if they have experience on other bikes and can tell you some pros/cons of 1 bike vs another one.

      I'm assuming you've seen a lot of GSXR 600 videos as that's prolly you're #1 choice, but don't sleep on these. Honda has the smoothest power band, and probably the most reliable out of them all (they can easily hit 100K miles no problem as long as you take care of it/regular maintenance).
      The ZX6R is kind of underrated, really dope bike, for sure. They all are lol.
      I wouldn't consider the R6, it's not ideal for streets and the ZX6R is a faster bike and it's cheaper lol. R6 is basically strictly a track bike, uncomfortable af. That's why I didn't drop links for it lol.
      Anyway, good luck. Ride safe and make sure you understand the fundamentals before you start riding too fast and hop on public streets and especially the highway. These bikes are very fast and you gotta respect the power.
      Always remember that there are a lot of incompetent drivers, so when you're riding don't assume that they will drive flawlessly. It doesn't matter how skilled you are, it's all about other drivers being idiots that is the main concern.
      The 3rd video I linked in the Honda CBR600 section, the dude goes around a blind corner too fast and there was a car going like 1 mph lmao...and he almost hit it. He's a very experienced rider but that was some rookie shit. He was mad at the car but he knew he fuct up. That's the type of shit you have to account for when riding on public streets. I actually left a comment on that video. Read it. It's probably the most recent comment on that video.
      Ride smart, bro. Have fun when you know the roads and have clear line ahead of you to pull some speed, but don't start doing that shit until you have mastered the fundamentals.
