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]].

You get race-derived | You get race-derived aluminium frame and swingarm, top-drawer dual valve throttle intake, a new rear suspension linkage and reworked Showa suspensions overall for better handling in both civil and race track scenarios. Add in the works-tweaked aerodynamics and the sleek under-engine exhaust for premium looks, too. | ||
