what engine is it?

Always found it anoying how they all look the same, if I had bought the big one I wouldnt want it to look identicle to the ickle 600.

The thou does look different, thats the 600 or 750.

WHY O WHY are Suzuki putting bloody horrible cans on their bikes. its like some form of cannon

in fairness its not just susuki, they are all at it. everyone is jumping on the MotoGP stubby look, but by the time they get them to pass emissions etc they all go a bit bonkers.

Really like the tail unit on the GSXRs though.

Yea its all the emissions crap wich is pointless because its not part of the MOT so 90% of people rip them off ASAP

I was reading that they under tune bikes to pass emissions. something to do with playing around with fueling.

I have noticed they have all started going a bit hay wire with the zorsts. VFR1200 is the weirdest.

Yeah they play with the fueling to ensure it passes. There is a noticeable power drop at around 5500rpm on a standard CBR600F cos that is the rev range they test the engine emissions iirc.

Forutnately a race can, a powercommander and a K&N filter sort that problem right out :cool:
