http://www.motorcycle.com/images/content/Review/08_mar_suzukiR600_09b.jpg There are only 18 racetracks in the world which are deemed worthy of MotoGP competition. So when Suzuki invited Motorcycle.com to Italy's Misano World Circuit to test its revamped GSX-R600, we were chomping at the bit. But why send a bunch of scribblers overseas to ride what may be perceived as simply a warmed over and restyled middleweight Gixxer? Well, the GSX-R600 is a veritable lynchpin of Suzuki's lineup. It not only outsells every sportbike on the American market (about 20,000 in 2006), it's the best-selling Suzuki among all of Team S's extensive catalog, according to Garrett Kai, American Suzuki's Senior Communications Specialist.

"Suzuki’s rejoinder to this conundrum is a plethora of revisions to the GSX-R600’s existing motor.." WTF language is the reviewer speaking? Did he like open up a Thesaurus and start throwing out lots of random words?

Local shop just got an all black 600 in. its OMGsex. I'm not too crazy on the pipe, but the new headlight design grew on me as I stared at it a while. only downside i could find (other than the pipe) was the $500 raise in price. it's a beautiful machine. no pics cause i wasn't expecting them to be in stock yet.

I like it, but I think the front fairing design will take a little getting use to.

I like everything but the muffler. I think my K7 750 will do :)

My local shop got a new 08 600 silver/white/blue in on Saturday. The same day, one of my freinds went and bought it. I looked at it today and I like everything but the exhaust. The dealer was telling me and him that the 08 is suppose to be a lot faster than the 07 is this true?

probably not, but depends on what you define as "alot faster" ...wow this is my first post, in 2 years of looking at these forms. HAHA!

The shop I went to has (had?) an 08 600 on the floor. It was white and silver. Sorry about the bad pic but it is off my phone. But the guy i was talking to said they had just got three 750's in that were still in the crates if i was interested in trading in my bike towards one. Now, in the review it says that the 750 didn't get all the changes the 600 did. Did they spruce up the motor like the 600 or leave it alone?
