Head to head comparison of the Jap '07 600s, with the Daytona 675 thrown in for good measure. If you're on dial-up or can't be bothered to download, the sum-up was:
"The Big H has done it again. The new CBR is easier to ride than ever, while being more focussed than ever. It has the least mass, the highest power, and the most composed handling package. It may not make you any faster on the track, but it'll make it easier for you to reach your limits, faster. It's a very special motorbike indeed."

I'm pretty sure it's got a slipper clutch too...
I have absolutely no idea, but I think your avatar is fantastic.![]()
Was that a Seppo Daytona? cos i've got the June 2006 issue of "Superbike" which has a dyno chart of the 2006 Daytona putting out 110.9bhp at the rear wheel...
don't believe everything you read.
Oh yeah Daytona was Masterbike 2006 winner as well. But I do like the black and white livery of the '07 600RR...somehow...

I've no idea what a Seppo Daytona is or was. And Google is not much help either. I imagine they jut put standard bikes up against each other in this kind of test. Anyone can get more power out of those engines by fitting the usual Dynojet, zorst and air filter. There are Daytonas racing in the British Supersport with 130+hp at the wheel, but they're hardly road bikes you can buy at every dealer.
The mag just states it's a standard '07 Daytona. And the figures came from the May '07 edition of the same magazine. So you either believe both, or neither![]()
fer yer info... a "seppo" Daytona is still the Daytona 675 but one made for the American market, as in, seppo = septic tank = Yank. Usually ECUs are mapped differently and exhaust different to meet higher emissions regulations (= lower hp).
Euro models are coming into line with Euro 3 emissions regs now so the 2007 model could be slightly down on the 2006 output, but i haven't seen an '06 v '07 comparo.
If your test is truei'll have a 2006 D675 thanks wif Power Commander and Arrows exhaust :tasty:
