2006 Suzuki GSX-R600 Street Ride Review

[borbor122]

I like the k8-10 models are my favorite, but i still like the k6-7 models

[Killkillification]

@Srok1 Actually Suzuki always places in the top 5 in the AMA and maybe one or two Kawasakis in the top 10

[iH8MomJokes]

we all know that gixxer is number 1...

1. gsxr 600

2. cbr600rr

3. r6

4. zx6r

...Lets share all our opinions



[POZDRAW]

@iH8MomJokes why would be a gixxer number 1? there is no bike like ducati... no wonder why its the most expansive bike.

And about these japanese 600's, its all about the taste....

[srok1]

@iH8MomJokes lol do you watch the MotoGP ever? Suzuki places after several Hondas and Yamahas ALWAYS. Stats are there and they don't lie. GSX-R looks great and can hold its own but will never win on a track against R6 or CBR600. My 2 cents.

[meantexanguy]

Cant touch my 06 zx6r lol

[xekul]

I gotta get me a 2006 GSX-R600 in Black/Red.... oh yeah...

[paladain55]

ready to trade my rebel 250 and i just got it lol. only 2.5 more years till im 18. i definetly think ill have enough money for an 06...

[squantotheboywonder]

hey im looking to start riding a bike but dont no what is a good bike to start with. im sticking with suzuki though cause i have always riden suzuki dirt bikes and i like suzuki alot. power wont be a problem for me but idk the differense between a mx bike and a street bike. any advice?

[MrBassAnimal]

@squantotheboywonder easy mate:i almost got a gsxr 750 to start with.. but ended up with an SV650. never looked back, only sold it to go traveling..now i'm back:gsxr :D the SV was SO forgiving: the lack of HP meant I could getmyself out of some sticky situations i probably would have stacked it otherwise a lot of people swear by bandits.. but they look shite (in my opinion). the SV is a great begininer bike, but has the looks to. providing you get a full fairing model, preferably yellow :)

[squantotheboywonder]

@MrBassAnimal thanks man that helped a bit. i have to wait about 8 months before i can get one though (mom wont let me unless im not only 18 but out of her house lol)

[Kingjamesif]

Man I want a gixxer for my first bike but I don't want to get left behind on a 600, I'm thinking smart riding on a 750 wouldn't be to dangerous?

[luisronaldofigo]

@Kingjamesif if you live on germany then yes you may be left behind on a 600 but in usa if they are leaving you behind they are already riding too dangerous

[ye5wecan]

Go to your address bar, after the word YOU and before the word TUBE, type in "win" then press enter

[lanneistion]

k8 are even prettier

[mcflysrc]

gixxers are built for squids

[bfulop]

I own an 06 600 and with a simple remapping of the ECU and a good pipe it makes some serious power for a 600. And these bikes are designed to be reved so let em rip they love it.

[frontier1701]

I usually dont spin a motor up to 15,000 rpm.... I like mid-range torque... Any suggestions????

[gixxerich]

I know how you feel, I had one of these bikes for 2 years and got fed up of having to rev it to 15k plus to make it go anywhere, I suggest a gsxr 750? or any thou

[NoFukinNamesLeft]

@frontier1701 Triumph daytona

[mobilkuestilo]

GSXR 600 is number 1

[emilyabbie]

SRAD`S STILL RULE!!!!

[kirbienstien]

ram air is not pressurized.  fail

[papukaiffa]

of course ram air makes bit more pressure than "free-air". ITs NOT charger doh..

[JEFFMM71]

whatever the 09 r1 got last in the 1000s review.

[jayycrack]

09 r1  number 1

[rush2905]

love the headlights. hate the new ones. the 750 is the best. R6 own the 600 for racing. so might as well just get the 750. but no one touches the GSXR1000.

[Archerke]

i beg to differ..

gsx-r 600 is much more awesome than an r6:p r6 only starts making power above 13 000 rpm

[mys0ck]

so its not the 600 racer (r6) or the stunts (cbr) so its the perfect all round?

[jenleadavis]

I have a 06 gsxr6 re on black, and I must say this is about the sweetest peice of pussy ive ever riddin! I went from stock to a full Micron Serpent system wit the GP pipe (black of course), a mapped out power commander, a TRE, K&N air filter, Top of the line spark plugs, and finnaly a Quick Reaction Spocket Kit!!! At STOCK, The front end of the bike would only come up if i was at about 10,000RPM + at first, with me pushing well past 50mph +!!!

[jenleadavis]

Now this SWEET BITCH is coming up at 30mph+, real talk! The gains are fuckin unbelievable, and my final move is the DINO! trust me when i say with all of this my friends with 1000's are shocked out of their moinds when they see they can no longer leave me on 95 or 695!

[jenleadavis]

I BE ON THERE ASSES, and one slip up from them like gettin a little jammed up in traffic??? SHIIID, its a wrap, cause I'm lonnnng Gooonnnne baby! already been proven as a fact, i leave their asses STUNNED!!! Hahahahah! Once its dino'ed its over for them and they already know it!!!

[daboxer181]

your gay it smoothes out the bike look and the back signal lights are sik and dont look bulky like every other bike

[adrondube]

JacquesZupp: In this day of modern design elements, I think it's RETARDED not to combine the mirror and turn signal. Why have the extra attachment? It's called intelligent design.

[suzukiman8408]

man the 06-07 years for the 600 and 750 were the best, these new 08's just dont look right

[milesgixxer]

yea iv got the 600 k7 and i love the way it luks! i think its one ofthe best lukin 6's out ther, wen i heard bout the new gixxer having more midrange i was gunna trade up that was until i saw the new luk urgh!!

[Gizzacks]

what does everybody think about the Kawa ZX6R? Ive been riding Suzuki since I was a 3yo, kinda want to stick with it, but have been hearing good things about the ZX6R, can anyone tell me what they're like?

[milesgixxer]

yea i own both a gixxer 600 k7 and a kawa zx6r08, the both great bikes i dnt have nothin bad to say bout the gixxer at all but the zx6r has a few lil problems nothin major though lyk the side stand its to straight the bike doesnt lean ova enuf and twice has fell due to high wind the other is the seat its sooo hard! so if u dnt wnt kids and u dnt mind splashing out on new plastics from time to time get a zx6r lol any ova ques jst msg

[drz400s4567]

The new GSXR 600's are the best 600's in my opinion. I just ran a 10.97 @ 127 mph on a STOCK 2006 GSXR 600. That was my second time ever drag racing. Nice bike and great sound by the way.

[swchz08]

gotta love em' gixxers....i just dont like the 08 models with these big ass exhaust

[DORYA11]

yeah I agree with you, I would just get a Two Brothers exhaust, you know

[oldskoolchevelle]

i agree. they kinda messed up the look of the front of the bike

[onlydachoosen]

i dont know about any of yall but that 06 is fucking hot i want one of them joints

[sgtkxiong]

i own a k5 blue/white gixxer600 and i love it. i recently had a r6 and it doesn't compare to the gixxer in looks and feel

[geekgeneration]

i think the 08 took a step backwards in aesthetics

[AtomicOne420]

I think the 08s are Beautiful.

[HinchaTigre]

That's right baby cake  . . .!

[MiamiNeli]

i just love my GSXR 600 K7 ...

she is blue-white, amazing. i don't need a boyfriend anymore ;);) hahaha

for me she is the most beautiful bike...

ok the yamaha R1 it beautiful too and mv agustas and ducatis of course ... but i am faithful...

supersport for life!!!!!!!!!!!!

greetings and keep at least one wheel on the road hahahahahaaaaa

[tmawem]

I ride the GSXR;) The best Bike in the World;) GsXr...what else;))

[HonkyOfTheYear]

iam 5'8 and I ride a gsxr 750 k4

[SjeelUn]

i am a girl ..

and most of the girls dont like motorcycles .

but everytime i hear a motorcycle passing by .. i look at it untill i cant hear and see it anymore ..

and i saw this motorcycle just twice in reallife . and believe me: i kept looking even when others diddnt hear it annymore .. i fell in love with it REALLY ..

this is my dream guy in motor form =P

xx

[tamibobby]

im 5'7 and i left it as it is i have the 07 gsxr 600 and its fine to me

[Jayzow]

I am planning on buying a GSX R 600 K4 or a K6 in the near future and I was wondering, me being 5' 7", if I should get it lowered or not.

[hamster1045]

dont lower a bike, it ruins the handeling

[MeluvUlontime]

I got 06 gixxer. I'm 5'4 and the gixxer is fine for me. You will get used to its stock heights once you're comfortable with the bike.

[Racr4Lyfe]

Oh cool, I'm 5'4" also. So getting on and off isn't hard or anything?

[aleks110]

Best looking 600 on the market today! Unfortunately the 2008 GSXRs are ugly again :(

[mskksm]

yeah i agree, 08's are really ugly, makes me glad i bought a new 07 instead!

[kabob983]

I'm with you all, the new headlight if ridculous, and I haven't really read much about jumps in performance for the '08...'06 blue/white is one of the sharpest bikes around.

[brizzle0007]

Most Beautifull Bike ever made...

the Suzuki GSX-R1000 (2006) is my favorite, but this bike RULES:D

[klined]

9 year rider here, i think katana's make excellent beginner bikes and they are easy to ride sporty once you get the hang of it.

But even they are a bit of a handful actually.

serious sportbikes are monsters and really not for beginners. When they say beginner friendly, they mean friendly to beginners to sportbikes from other kinds of bikes

[schumifan78]

Then you mustn't have ridden any model after to 02 then...

[ghajklhdljkshdjklasl]

I SAY THE GSXR 2002 MODEL IS THE BEST ;)

[lobzdik]

i love it...

i thought it was pronounced "geek ser" no?

[ShortySIG552]

I've always heard it "jikk-ser"

Either way though.

[zookygixx]

best 600cc on the market

[StarScream750]

I want a CBR.

[kickit81]

can some one ride on the back of this bike

[kalikaputra]

yap when you buy it,they give you the seat pillion also in a nice beautiful suzuki bag.When on track you can put that aerodynamic bit.When shepherding chicks pull out the seat.simple really :)

[gixxerich]

yeah

[spectormyeura]

what would you say about this as a starter. or would aninja 500r be better? i know the suzuki owns in performance but whats better for a first bike

[tmact13]

It really doesnt matter if you get this bike or a ninja 250....Both bike are capable of doing 100+

you could fall off the 600 at 30 mph and die...same thing goes for the 250....I hope you understand what im trying to say.

Its not the speed....you just need to know your way around a bike =)

[gixxerich]

i agree and dont agree.. i agree that u can hurt urself no matter what bike u have but i dont agree that it doesent matter weather u get a ninja 250 or this bike, there is a big difference!

[racinglad]

Dude, don´t even think about it. Start with a small displacement bike, not a gixxer. I´ve seen first hand what a 600cc+ can do to a beginner.

[steacy91]

lower performance is better for a first bike cause ive heard about a bunch of people panicking when something happens on there first bike and hittin the has hard, and nothing good comes with that

[usforeignpolicy]

take a motorcycle riding course. it really helps. look up msf

[lesmcluffalot]

Kewlios

[Peaches3375]

I love it! best toy I've ever purchased!

[tommyT5]

i have sell it on march.... shit! i love that bike but i have to buy new home.... shit!! i want mi bikeeeeee

[XeroJager]

I'm hoping to get this bike..

so far, it seems most comfortable, and has a good level of power.. and lightweight too.

[kawagutten]

very nice bike!
