Advantages: POWER, pick up, alot cheaper than a car Disadvantages: takes concentration to ride, doesn't ride itself like the Honda's
I am 26 years old and I have never owned a car. I’m quite proud of that. Instead. I am a motorbike man through and through.
And one of those bikes was a GSXR 600
I bought the GSXR 600 second hand for only $1500 (NZ, about $700 US) – which was a very good price. Even though the bike was 10 years old when I got it and had done a few kilometers (or miles, for American readers) already, it still rates as the fastest bike I have ever owned ... ...bike because I was moving to Gisborne to study sport and I was looking for something a little bigger than what I currently had, in order to make return trips a little faster. Well, it certainly did that. It’s 16 valve double overhead cam added up to monster pick up (great for riding the Gisborne gorge), while it’s big 600cc engine meant sustained high cruising speeds (I often rode the Tauranga run at 180-200 kph).

Advantages: Sexy Looks with Race Bred performance, at low cost! Disadvantages: Petrol Guzzler!
...money together to buy a Suzuki GSX-R600. Some may say that it is too much for an 18 year old to handle, but I would have to disagree, and say that I have never had so much fun with my clothes on!
It has sexy looks combined with top quality performance. It is lightweight, easy to flick into corners, and easy to lift the front wheel whilst being chunky and overall a fat bike!
I have owned the bike for five weeks and can't keep my butt off the seat! ... ...beast (with a road permitting) can power its way into fourth gear from low down in first on the back wheel! ;o)
However, the only problem is that of the Cam chain, most if not all slightly earlier models need to undergo a cam chain modification, all under warranty, so it wont cost you a penny, but it can be hastle for those who need the bike for commuting.
Enjoy..! ...
