my brother just got an 06 gsrx 600. it's pretty nice. but after the payments of 200 a month for 5 years...it's not worth the 12 grand. i asked him why he got the bike...and he said because he couldn't afford the money to do a h22 swap in his del sol....what a ricer

B16CRXT

So he spent 12K instead of 5-7K? He is a ricer :1

TurbodEG

he also says the bike will go to 100mph in 1st gear...lmfao...the bike tops out at 155...so 100 in first...155 in second...what are the other 4 gears for?

B16CRXT

he must be looking at the RPM gauge Those bastards rev out to like 13 grand!

TurbodEG

his goes to 16 grand he said...i havn't rode it yet. i had a 02 ninja. but i gave it away lol...i hate bikes

The R1 I rode the other day will do 100 in first gear. I don't think I could ever top out first gear..ever.

TurbodEG

yeah thats an r1 tho lol...1000cc...i'm talking about a 600cc...plus my brother can't drive abike good...2 days after he took it off the show room floor he ran it into some elses bike...he was riding to close to them on haywood road lol

if i were you.. i would nicelty ask him not to ride untill he gets a little better at riding.. if he says no.. i would then kindly go to the nearest life insurance place and take out a plan with you being the benefactor

Yeah but doing 100 in first doesn't mean ----. Its not like your going to be doing 600 in 6th. Being able to do 100 in first just means the gearing is too tall

True, but when the bike can do low 10's stock, it's kinda scary.
