i thought the gsxr600 was meant to be one of the 600s with a bit more power low down?

TBH i cant comapre it to any other 600 as i havnt got round to riding many.

What i do no is that the 600 only starts to pull after 8K rev's. But more idealy u need to be at 10K if you want the real power, then its hang on time.

Whereas the 750 pulls from 4k and more idealy 6k if u want to get round sumat quickly.

more relaxed riding sounds good. Although it looks like the insurance difference is huge between the 600 and 750!

I've just turned 25 and have a garage. Tempting, but I don't trust myself to not do "going to prison" speeds, so no out and out sportsbike yet.

You have answered something I have been pondering for a while there, thanks mate! I like the idea of the 600, but it sounds to me that the 750 is almost an easier ride .... would LOVE one! :thumbsup:

Gotta disagree I'm afraid. My gixer 600 had a nice amount of grunt, low down and further up. Lovely and easy to ride too, you don't have to ride like a lunatic, you can have a nice bimble but if you want to have a good aggressive run it likes to do that too.

As soon as the insurance pays up I'll be getting exactly the same again.
