2009 Suzuki GSX-R600





2009 Suzuki GSX-R600
Introducing the 2009 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 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 styling and optimum 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.

Engine Features

- Compact and lightweight 599cc 4-stroke, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine designed with optimum performance and responsiveness in mind

- 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 features a compression ratio of 12.8:1for maximum performance

- Forged aluminum alloy pistons are designed to work with 12.8:1compression ratio, iridium spark plugs and combustion chamber shape.

- Exhaust cam tappets diameters are now larger at 25.0mm for maximum flexibility in cam profile design

- Large ventilation holes located between the cylinder bores are designed for reduced internal pumping pressure and minimal mechanical losses

- Suzuki Idle Speed Control (ISC) system for improved cold starting, consistent idle quality and reduced emissions

- Proven S-DMS engine management system allows the rider to choose from three engine settings to match riding conditions with a handlebar mounted switch

- High volume Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) with an innovative under engine chamber leading to a large volume muffler with a distinctly shaped triangular silencer

- Under deceleration the back torque limiting clutch reduces pressure on the clutch plates for smoother downshifting and corner entry

- Hydraulic cam chain tensioner automatically adjusts while reducing noise and mechanical losses.

- Clutch cover and oil pan feature 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

- Ignition coil outer diameter is designed for reduced weight and the starter motor uses rare earth magnets for a compact lightweight design

- 32 bit ECM features 1024 kilobytes of ROM for maximum engine performance working in conjunction with the S-DMS engine management system


Chassis Features

- Sharp bodywork design features an aggressive new look featuring a bold headlight design and angular tail section for the GSX-R600

- Electronically controlled steering damper uses a solenoid valve to move a tapered needle reducing or increasing oil flow to adjust damping force.

- Three headlight layout features a projector low beam and multi-reflector headlamps for left and right high beams creating improved light distribution

- Lightweight cast aluminum wheels featuring an angled spoke design for improved rigidity, reduced unsprung weight and improved acceleration

- 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

- Stylish fuel tank features a GSX-R1000 inspired design and provides 4.5 gallons of fuel.

- Aggressive new overall design features a well balanced combination of compactness with the high performance look of a GSX-R

- 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

- 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
