In 2005, Suzuki released the GSX-R600, a motorcycle that doesn't need no introduction, as it was one of the highly popular supersport-class machines of modern history at the time. The 2005 GSX-R600 got smarter and featured the interrupted headlight at the start of the engine with a reduced load on the battery.
The bike boasted the same features that made it famous with a narrow engine that favored aerodynamics, performance-enhancing cylinder coating, and a compact build for maximized handling at all speeds, on both track and street conditions.
The aluminum frame was similar to that of the original 750 Gixxer, designed for a race feel, and featured fully adjustable Showa suspensions that provided a wide range of settings for multiple riding scenarios, while the race-derived brakes offered excellent stopping power.
In the power department, the 2005 Suzuki GSX-R600 had its heartbeat set by a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered a power output of 124 hp at 13,000 rpm and 70 Nm (51 lb-ft)of torque with a peak at 10,800 rpm. Driven by a six-speed manual transmission and with an overall dry weight of 161 kg (355 lbs), the bike registered a top speed of 255 kph (158 mph).
The 2005 Suzuki GSX-R600 model was for sale in 2022 starting from $4,500,
