SUZUKIGSX-R600 2011 - 2012

　　In 2012, Suzuki released the GSX-R600, a supersport motorcycle that shared the technological improvements that its bigger sisters benefited from the MotoGP and Endurance racing series. The bike got lighter, and thus improved the power-to-weight ratio, dominated the class, and provided an even more explosive performance.

　　Radial monoblock four-piston Brembo calipers were part of the standard equipment with two 310 mm discs on the front and a 220 mm disc with a Nissin two-piston caliper on the rear. The frame was redesigned to fit the Showa Big Piston Fork (BPF) front suspension and the new rear monoshock.

　　The bike featured a Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) system that offered two race-developed engine maps at a push of a button for personal preference and to suit road conditions.

　　The engine featured the Suzuki Dual Throttle (SDTV) fuel injection system, which used eight-hole injectors that improved combustion efficiency and delivered smooth power. The 2012 Suzuki GSX-R600 model, powered by a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a power output of 125 hp at 13,500 rpm and 68 Nm (50 lb-ft) of torque with a peak at 11,500 rpm, combined with a six-speed manual transmission and a dry weight of 160 kg (352 lbs), launched the bike to a top speed of 253 kph (157 mph).
