The aluminium frame and swingarm have been revised as well, to provide a matching response on both track and street. Adjustable suspensions, sport-derived brakes and a new, more aerodynamic bodywork with the classic white, blue and red livery are also included among the goodies the new machine comes with. | ||
2001 ushered in the third generation of GSX-R600s, however, this introduction was largely overshadowed by [[Suzuki]]'s introduction of the [[Suzuki GSX-R1000|GSX-R1000]]. This bike broke the 100[[hp]] mark for the 600 class and the second successful 600 class bike to be fuel injected - after [[Triumph]]'s disaster in the [[Triumph TT600|TT600]]. All this from a bike that was playing second fiddle to the [[Suzuki GSX-R750|GSX-R750]]. | 2001 ushered in the third generation of GSX-R600s, however, this introduction was largely overshadowed by [[Suzuki]]'s introduction of the [[Suzuki GSX-R1000|GSX-R1000]].

Add in the works-tweaked aerodynamics and the sleek under-engine exhaust for premium looks, too. | ||

The 2012 MY GSX-R600 shares the technological improvements its bigger sisters benefited from thanks to the MotoGP and Endurance racing series. The bike got lighter and thus improved the power-to-weight ratio, dominating the class and providing an even more explosive performance. | The 2012 MY GSX-R600 shares the technological improvements its bigger sisters benefited from thanks to the MotoGP and Endurance racing series.

The 2014 MY GSX-R600 represents the new-generation of street-going sport bikes, a nifty heritage of more than 1 million Gixxers manufactured and an excellent testimony of motorcycle-making excellence. In the past years, Suzuki has not made dramatic changes to its bikes, and this was compensated by step-by-step improvements and tweaks which allowed the GSX-R600 to keep up with the competition and even dominate racing series. | The 2014 MY GSX-R600 represents the new-generation of street-going sport bikes, a nifty heritage of more than 1 million Gixxers manufactured and an excellent testimony of motorcycle-making excellence.

GSX-R600 is one of the most popular street-legal supersport bikes, and it only gets better and better with each passing year. Because Suzuki is back to MotoGP in 2015, it was natural that one of the liveries evoked the premier class Racing Blue colors. Some of the technologies from MotoGP made it to the GSX-R600 in a form or another, such as the high-tech slipper clutchm Brembo monoblock calipers, Showa BPF suspensions, driving modes, adjustable pegs and more. | GSX-R600 is one of the most popular street-legal supersport bikes, and it only gets better and better with each passing year.
