Suzuki GSR600 Bike Overview
Suzuki GSR600, also known as the Baby B-King, was released back in 2006 as a middleweight streetfighter-styled bike. The 599cc in-line four, liquid-cooled motorcycle was first released in 2006 fitted with the GSXR-600 engine. This great middleweight street-bike has remained a firm favourite in the biking world over the years.
Known for its great handling, superb braking and a great style, the GSR600 appeals to all types of riders because of its versatility, but it’s popular with newer riders as an excellent bike to build up your confidence before moving onto a bigger, more powerful machine.
Commonly compared to the Yamaha FZ6 and Honda Hornet 600, a second hand Suzuki GSR600 can cost anything from £2,000 – £4,000.

Owner Reviews
Pros
The ride and hand-wringing.
Cons
The brakes.

It’s not overly comfortable but it’s comfier than most other 600 sports bikes.
Aside from the factory recalls, this bike is bullet proof.
The brakes on this year GSXR are not the best in it's category but they get the job done.
It handles brilliantly if the suspension is set up correctly the bike feels nimble and forgiving in the corners.
This 600 is quick for its category.
It’s not bad on fuel but it’s not great either.
Pros
Great fun, and ideal for a first bike on an A2 license!
Cons
Ride stiffness

Lightweight, doesn't corner the best as it's very spongey suspension, needs to be far stiffer.
Very fast for a first bike, can be screwed and doesn't miss a beat.
It rinses me
Very sturdy bike, never had any problems *touch wood*
Very fast braking
Pros
Engine is an absolute peach for the roads.
Cons
The seat!

Decent for standard budget suspension, handles touring and scratching duties with no major issues.
Beautiful. Quite punchy for a 600 low down.
Run of the mil bits are cheap. Funky body panels and low sales numbers means high repair costs if you damage them.
Pretty good to be fair, usual furring up on fasteners but the paint and powdercoat etc seem to be nice and decent quality.
For a budget bike they are great. Regular strip and clean is all thats needed in the worse weather.
Pros
love it, theres not that many about unique styleand goes well
Cons
tail tidy is so much better
