When Suzuki launched the original GSX600F, critics leapt upon the unusual styling, cruelly labelling it (and its’ 750cc bigger sibling) ‘the teapot’. Despite this, the bike found a home as a budget sports-tourer – a niche the new bike will ultimately be considered as falling into.

It definitely is no teapot in terms of looks – the long double-check at the lights from an R1 pilot who pulled up next to me verified that. The styling takes queues from a two-year old GSX-R600… and there is definitely nothing wrong with that!
