Re: Suzuki GSXR750 K6-7 vs Suzuki Daytona 675
The 675 is a great 600 class bike (allways rated top 3 in shoot outs) and a great leap for british built uk bikes
But every mag I pick up says the GSXR 750 IS the ultimate allround superbike ,it gets rated for comfort,handling, etc etc seems to get praised in everthing i read And for me there would be no choice but the GSXR 750 Just my op |

Re: Suzuki GSXR750 K6-7 vs Suzuki Daytona 675
Wow. What a diffiuclt choice. The Jap bike wins comfort, no doubt, the '07 gixxer is like riding a sporty armchair. Power delivery from the 750 is brilliant low down and phenomenal when you give it welly. I didn't have the courage to pin the throttle on the demo bike. The 675, well, the noise is fantastic even with stock can, with aftermarket can it's just addictive and you want to howl around everywhere. Power delivery is linear, it's stonking everywhere in the rev range, a little bit like a peaky Vtwin with grunt everywhere. It's tall and uncomfortable though. I'm 5'8 and while I wasn't quite tip-toeing I couldn't put the feet on the floor. Handling on both is similar, very light, very flickable and very planted. Kneedown antics no problem on either. For real world biking and longer journeys get the gixxer 750, if it's mainly track use and blasts get the Daytona. That's what my head says. My heart would go for the Trumpet everytime.
I guess you are not interested in a CBR600RR? Still very pricey but the 07/08 model beats both bikes on all counts except looks, but looks are a personal thing. |

I'm wanting a bit more grunt than your IL4 SS600, fantastic though they are, and would prefer a 675 over any of the other SS600. Some interesting points from a lot of people so far, very useful.

Re: Suzuki GSXR750 K6-7 vs Suzuki Daytona 675
[/IMG]I picked up a k6 750 a few weeks ago and must say it's probably the best bike I've ridden to date. Had a zx6r before and thought it handled great, the 750 handles just as great, feels as light as a 600 but has got enough power to keep me on my toes ( a 1000cc would be wasted on me ). Most of what I read about the 750 and people who I've spoken to ( not just owners ) say it the best road bike at the moment. I haven't tried the 675 so can't give an opinion on it, I was looking to get one but went with the 750 instead..

Would be worth giving them all a test ride if they are there - the RR7/RR8 as Dan mentions are supposed to be quite a leap engine wise - I remember reading that it was the first SS600 to "have some midrange" (not my words!). Dan, I'm interested in what they tested. I would have expected better straight line acceleration from the 750, but I could see handling/track times/etc being very close. Wasn't sure what you meant be "speedwise". |

Re: Suzuki GSXR750 K6-7 vs Suzuki Daytona 675
Ah yes, let me expand on that comment. They were laptimes of Infineon Raceway. I think it was MotoUSA that did the testing and they rated the RR as the best 600 but they said that it has similar power delivery of a gixxer 750. It was online somewhere will see if I can find the link. Of course top end would be better though, but who wants to go 186mph on the road? Not me. Maybe 175 though.
