GSX-R600 Laguna Seca. Daytona. Road America. To some people these are mel ely race tracks. To us, they are - just as importantly - proving grounds. We research and develop our production supersport bikes under the most extreme conditions. The result has been the most dominating machines of their generation: the incredible line of GSX-R supersport bikes, including the awesome GSX-R600. To win in the 600cc supersport class, every aspect of performance must be absolutely first-rate. And that begins with engine performance. The GSX-R600's powerplant uses the same basic design as the GSXR750, with liquid cooling, a downdraft Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber (TSCC) head with four valves per cylinder, and cylinder bores plated with Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM TM). It also uses fuel injection - a revolutionary system called Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection. It combines the advantages of fuel injection - accurate fuel delivery and more efficient combustion for increased power - with the seamless throttle response of constant-velocity carburetors. The result is excellent mid-rpm torque and crisp throttle response through-out the powerband. The 2002 GSX-R600. It's ready to win if you are. Sherman Power Sports 1205 S.
