Akrapovic Bolt-on / Slip-on line Street Legal Exhaust - Suzuki GSX-R 600

Advantages: excellent torque and performance and excellent chassis
Disadvantages: riding position can be a strain after a fir bit of miles on a trip

.... In fact my dad rides a Suzuki GSXR-1000 K2 and he went out and bought an Akrapovic straight after he heard the difference between the stock exhaust on mine and then the aftermarket Akrapovic exhaust... Since I have bought my Kawasaki I have added a steering dampener, braided front back brake lines, Akrapovic Exhaust, smaller number plate and smaller indicators. I am EXTREMELY HAPPY with this bike and feel I definatly made the right choice over all the other 600 on the market. The close second choice for me was the 2003 to present version, Honda CBR 600RR...... Read review

...Suzuki GSX-R750- A Review By Addy Having been an ardent dedicated Honda man for the majority of my biking life, I actually relented and bought a Suzuki GSX-R 750. I was definitely looking for a step up from super-sport 600's, after having 3 different models of CBR 600. I was giving serious contemplation to two other bikes at this time which were Aprilia RSV Millie, or a Honda CBR 900 Fireblade. However, after much deliberation and friend's recommendations, I went for the Suzuki. This was based on the judgement that you get the best of both worlds combining raw 750 power in a 600 chassis. The first Gixer 750 was released in 1985 and has undergone periodical changes since then. THE LOOK As in the picture above I purchased mine in the typical blue and white Gixer colours. In standard form the bike is aesthetically pleasing and ultra... Read review

Advantages: Power, Braking,handling,styling
Disadvantages: Some vibration

...I have rode my gsxr600 k5 now since March 05, both on the road and on track. This bike is without a doubt a track based machine,and handles way beyond my abilities as a rider. Lacks some power when dealing with the big Thou's but with some effort can just about stick in there, knee down wheel in the air is aregular on the track. With awesome stopping power on this newer model.Awesome power delivery,and what a scream from the exhaust. Corners like a train, point and shoot is all i can say !. On the road it is quite tame and refined and i have done some fair distance on it. As a big guy it is still pretty comfy to ride.. and look out it wheelies for fun Highly reccommend this machine to anyone.just fantastic...... at only £5800 new. As requested a bit of the tech stuff.... 599cc in line 4 cylnder DOHC 16 valve Dry weight 161Kgs USD Forks... Read review
