Click to read: 2011 Suzuki GSX-R600 Review
Introduction
Staying loyal to the brand concept ‘The Top Performer’, we are always trying to achieve a top class performance with a mixture of the three key elements of Supersport motorcycles - engine performance, cornering performance, and brake performance.
Our solution to ultimately scale up all those performances was to drastically trim down the weight.
In comparison to the current model, we have reduced the weight of the new GSX-R600 by as much as 9 kilograms. This remarkable weight reduction was achieved not only by using one big block of metal, but rather by the dedicated effort of our engineers to review and optimize the rigidity balance of each and every small piece of the machine.
In addition to the weight reduction, the analytical MotoGP technology enabled us to reduce internal mechanical losses and this resulted in stronger acceleration and low-to-mid rpm range torque.
At the same time, the fuel consumption has improved by approximately 10% in comparison to the current model, measured in WMTC mode, Suzuki in-house research.
Also we have made no compromises in our careful selection of the equipment. This model is fitted with race-proven parts such as Big Piston Front-forks and Brembo front brake calipers.
As a result of achieving remarkable weight reductions and further improved engine efficiency, this new GSX-R600 now has superb cornering and brake performance and enjoyable acceleration, as well as improved environmental performance.
Please enjoy the exciting evolution of its overall performance, the evolution of ‘The Top Performer’.
