Default Streched Gixxer 600!!

Look at this, those americans are crazy but i think it looks . It's been lowered streched and soon is adding a turbo,, to a 600 .. Wonder how long that will last.. I'm not looking to do this to my bike though, wouldn't suit our roads, one pot hole and bye bye fairing..

I don't get it... Why turbo a 600? Just get a 1000! LMAO.


Guess there ain't much chance of losing those strips either lol.

You actually get the extensions as a bolt on kit

Don't think he mentioned an uprated spring, bet it feels like a dog to ride!!

clever, dont like the idea though, putting that much strain though that area without extra support just seems that either it will bend the mount holes its using or possably snap.

Seems a cheep mans extention kit

Looks like its ready for Bonneville! Dont they use turbos to try and hit 200mph on a 600? Sure I read that somewhere...
