06 600 & 750 - Official Pictures & Info
Hi guys, just to let you know that these were published in the UK today.
Summary of write up:
All new motor, designed to be as compact as possible to allow underslung exhuast.
High gearbox and clutch tucked in behind cylinders instead of behind engine block.
Main silencer and cat are triangular shaped and are fitted under gearbox, second silencer poking out on righthand side.
New frame that curves over the engine rather than wrapping around it to allow much bigger ram-air intakes.
No power figures yet, but expected 115bhp and 135bhp at the rear wheel.
Both bikes have brake calipers from GSXR-1000, with the 750 getting titanium-nitrade coated forks.
Lighter and slimmer wheels, blue for the 600 and black for the 750.
Weight expected to be below 160kg.
Similar swingarm to GSXR-1000, with wide range of wheelbase adjustment.

doesn't matter if you have waited for the '06 the japs, change these things so often cause they know us the Americans will just keep trading up for the newer model, you can't never really keep up, all a scam. Just keep enjoying what you have man

Did you see the smoked out signal covers? makes it pretty much look like the signals aren't even there when it isn't flashing. They only cost like...$30 I think on ebay.

In the pic both bikes have the same forks, the 750 was listed as titanium not the 600. Anyone else notice that?

Yeah, sure is nice looking.
Here are some high res images I found at mcnews.au
750
600
Mainly just a paint difference from the two, but the forks and wheels are two other subtle give-aways.

Yup I'm starting to like the blue rims now...and I also have to agree on the fairings. Don't really care for them being so small and open like that. Hmmm...one thing I forgot to ask...are they going to have a slipper clutch? I'm guessing they would since Kawi has one in their bike.

Probably has to to with higher engine performance so more need for cooling. Better wind flow etc.
Is this blue lighter?
Why don't they just intergrate the blinkers on each side of the head light. Instead on the mirrors. That would make it look more like in the picture below, or even could use clear glass with colored light bulbs.

I'm guessing legal wise having the turn signals there wouldn't be the best move. Like the R1's have them by the headlights...but they also have the ones on the side. I'm guessing there's some type of rule of how far apart they have to be or something.
A good thing about having them on the mirrors is cars would probably be able to see them a lot better. Since it would be more at eye level when they're in their cars.

That is true, but I have also heard from my friend they are hard to see out of. Too much vibration with them to see out of them clearly. I don't know if he's just driving 150mph all the time or what. He has the 2005 GSXR1000 with the turn signals in the mirrors. He put the 2004 or 2003 mirrors on his and moved the signal wiring to the indicator lights just like the picture below that bikerxl posted.

Guessing the fairings are open because the exhaust is in there cooking the engine and fairing.
