KEY FEATURES
· A class-leading race-replica 600 that features several new engine and chassis improvements for a better power-to-weight ratio and
a low 359 lb. dry weight.
New Engine Features & Improvements:
· Compact & lightweight 599cc 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine is lighter and more compact.
· New cylinder head features narrower 28o included valve angle (13o intake, 15o exhaust), creating a more compact combustion
chamber, higher compression ratio and a straighter intake tract for improved power.
· New generation fuel injection system with 16-bit ECM for fast processing speed, plus detailed fuel maps for high fuel efficiency
and smooth throttle response.
· Throttle body design positions the injectors at a steep 60o angle for an optimum fuel spray pattern and fuel
atomization, increased power and sharp throttle response.
· Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve System, maintains more accurate air velocity in the intake tract for smoother low-to-mid rpm throttle
response and improved engine torque.
· Reshaped ram-air intake ducts feed a larger 8 liter airbox and a new flat-panel air filter for improved intake air-flow.
· New one-piece cylinder block and upper crankcase section form a lighter and stronger structure and eliminates the need for
external oil lines to the cylinder head.
· Durable SCEM-plated cylinders house new lightweight forged pistons with low-tension rings to reduce friction.
· Lighter weight stainless steel 4-into-2-into-1 exhaust system with bolt-on aluminum muffler.
· Larger radiator and new aluminum oil cooler, both with increased cooling capacity.
· New 6-speed transmission with closer ratios and coil spring-type clutch for improved clutch performance and feel.
· Additional weight reduction through smaller diameter crankshaft journals, lighter conrods, lighter camshafts and smaller diameter
valve stems.
· Lightweight magnesium valve cover, magneto cover, drive sprocket cover, clutch cover and starter clutch cover.
New Chassis Features & Improvements:
· More aerodynamic bodywork features reduced frontal area, smaller headlight/taillight and turnsignals, plus a smaller and lighter
tail section.
· Compact instrument cluster features a step-motor-driven analog tach. and digital speedometer - also includes LCD odometer-
tripmeters, coolant temp., clock and EFI diagnostics.
· Revised frame geometry and increased swingarm length with more forward weight distribution improve turning ability, rear wheel
traction and straight-line tracking - frame is lighter and more compact with a better balance between rigidity & weight.
· New, 43mm fully adjustable cartridge forks have 5mm additional stroke and are mounted 7mm closer together for reduced frontal
area.
· Fully adjustable piggy-back shock absorber features a new aluminum body and larger heat compensation system for more
consistant damping performance.
· Lighter weight 4-piston front brake calipers with aluminum-alloy pistons.
· New lightweight cast aluminum wheels - (F: 3.50 x 17 R: 5.50 x 17)
· 12 month unlimited mileage warranty.
