There is a bit of competition starting for this class in 2006. Hopefully we'll see some of these new models here in New Zealand.

So Suzuki have given in to marketing and gone for the undertail exhaust. Interesting model though, should sell well.

If you take the S off the tank, you'd think it was a Honda.....

16.5L Tank. Hornet has 19L tank.
12.5:1 Compression. = 96 gas needed.... Where as hornet uses 91

Looks neat and by the way they write it up, it could be a wheelie machine.

you'll find with the 750 is the torque over the 600's... so you don't have to ring the nuts off them. Also = more reliable motor

I saw the GSR600 in the flesh at the Wanganui Street races.

This is a damn hot looking bike :cool:

However I couldn't wait until April/May arrival in NZ (according to Suzuki NZ) so I got a CB900

I thought it looked more like a cousin of the FZ6.

The Suzuki was in the November BIKE but I hadn't seen these previously:
