Introducing the 2008 Suzuki GSX-R600. It is the GSX-R of the middleweight class, a product of Suzuki's legendary Integrated Design approach. A machine designed and refined by a team of talented engineers working together to build a motorcycle that delivers Balanced Performance. A revised, compact combination of chassis and engine, fitted with advanced electronics, effective suspension and radial-mount brakes to not only make more power and accelerate harder but also to handle better, with the goal being a quicker lap time around a racetrack. Packaged with exciting new styling and increased lighting and aerodynamics. Ignore the lights and mirrors and the fact that this is also the cleanest-running four-cylinder 600cc motorcycle that Suzuki has ever built, and it's easy to imagine the GSX-R600 rolling directly out of a race shop.

    New Engine
    • Updated compact and lightweight 599cc 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine designed with increased performance and responsiveness in mind
    • New electronic fuel injection system features Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) system - with dual fuel injectors per cylinder and new compact 8 hole, fine spray injectors for improved fuel atomization.
    • Combustion chamber shape is new and features an increased compression ratio of 12.8:1for maximum performance
    • New forged aluminum alloy pistons are designed to work with increased compression ratio, new iridium spark plugs and updated combustion chamber shape.
    • New exhaust cam tappets diameters are now larger at 25.0mm for increased flexibility in cam profile design
    • New larger ventilation holes located between the cylinder bores are increased to 41mm for reduced internal pumping pressure and reduced mechanical losses
    • New Idle Speed Control (ISC) system for improved cold starting, consistent idle quality and reduced emissions
    • New S-DMS engine management system allows the rider to choose from three engine settings to match riding conditions with a handlebar mounted switch
    • New high volume Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) with an innovative under engine chamber leading to a new large volume muffler with a new distinctly shaped triangular silencer
    • Under deceleration the back torque limiting clutch reduces pressure on the clutch plates for smoother downshifting and corner entry
    • New hydraulic cam chain tensioner automatically adjusts while reducing noise and mechanical losses.
    • New clutch cover and oil pan feature new internal ribs for increased rigidity and reduced engine noise
    • Suzuki Exhaust Tuning system is built into the mid-pipe using a servo-controlled butterfly valve to tune the exhaust system to match engine rpm and improving low end torque
    • New Ignition coil outer diameter is smaller for reduced weight and the starter motor uses new rare earth magnets for a compact lightweight design
    • New 32 bit ECM features 1024 kilobytes of ROM for maximum engine performance working in conjunction with the new S-DMS engine management system
    New Chassis
    • Sharp new bodywork design features an aggressive new look featuring a bold new headlight design and new angular tail section for the new GSX-R600
    • New electronically controlled steering damper uses a solenoid valve to move a tapered needle reducing or increasing oil flow to adjust damping force.
    • New three headlight layout features a projector low beam and multi-reflector headlamps for left and right high beams creating improved light distribution
    • New lightweight cast aluminum wheels featuring a new angled spoke design for improved rigidity, reduced unsprung weight and improved acceleration
    • New diecast aluminum seat rail features an updated two piece design for reduced weight
    • Lightweight Tokico single piston rear brake caliper is mounted on a new rear caliper bracket for ease of maintenance when removing the rear wheel or working on the rear brake
    • New fuel tank features a GSX-R1000 inspired design and fuel capacity is increased to 17 liters
    • Aggressive new overall design features a well balanced combination of compactness with the high performance look of a GSX-R
    Chassis Features
    • An aluminum-alloy frame utilizing five cast sections is engineered to deliver the ideal balance of rigidity for improved handling and less weight
    • Braced aluminum alloy swingarm is rigid with a large swingarm pivot and the swingarm assembly is designed for optimum suspension feedback and rear wheel traction
    • Innovative rear suspension linkage features a forged aluminum alloy link and one piece forged aluminum alloy link rod designed to increase traction and reduce side loads
    • Inverted 41mm Showa front forks are fully adjustable for rebound, compression and preload settings with optimum rake and trail dimensions for incredible cornering performance.
    • Showa 46 mm aluminum alloy rear shock features a 16mm rod and is completely adjustable for rebound, high and low speed compression and preload damping
    • Radial mount four piston front brake calipers works with new lightweight 310mm front brake rotors and a revised front brake master cylinder
    • New three way adjustable footpegs now feature die-cast construction and can be moved into three different positions with a 14mm horizontal and vertical range
    • The compact lightweight instrument cluster features a step motor controlled analog tach, LCD speedometer, dual tripmeters, clock, fuel reserve and a gear position indicator
