What Is It?

The Suzuki GSX-R600 is a popular mid-range sports bike and is powered by a liquid cooled 599 cc inline four engine which puts out 93 bhp at 12,000 rpm and maximum torque at 10,000 rpm.

Features include:

• Aluminium frame and swingarm
• Dual 320 mm discs up front with Tokico four piston calipers
• 220 mm disc at the rear with single piston caliper
• Mikuni BDSR36 carbs
• Adjustable fork 
• Adjustable rear shock with 130 mm travel
• 4->1 exhaust system
• 6 speed gearbox

The 1997 model introduced the Suzuki Ram Air Direct (SRAD) and it was visually identical to the higher capacity GSX-R750. In fact you can swap the 600 cc engine for the 750 cc if you are feeling inclined.

The 3-spoke 17" wheels take a 120/70 tyre at the front and a 180/55 at the rear.

Colours: Yellow/blue, red/silver, white/blue/red, silver

The GSX-R600 actually launched in 1992 but was not available in the UK until 1997
