Segment: Sport Touring
Production years: 1998, 1999
The original GSX 600F was launched in 1988 as a sportsbike. At that time, its specification was perfectly acceptable for a performance machine all enclosing bodywork, a 16 valve engine and monoshock rear suspension put it on a par with its peer group. Only the slightly bland styling marked the GSX out from its competitors. By 1998, the GSX 600F had been relegated to a more pedestrian budget sports tourer role.
