2009 Supersport Shootout : Yamaha R6 Forum: R6MessageNet : YZF-R6 Forums

The 600s go into battle: Honda CBR600RR vs. Kawasaki ZX-6R vs. Suzuki GSX-R600 vs. Yamaha YZF-R6

Everyone loves a close fight. Whether it's Ali and Foreman duking it out for a full 12 rounds or if it's the Steelers eking out a narrow victory over the Cardinals in the Superbowl, a closely contested match-up is always fun to watch.

Which is why our annual Supersport Shootout never fails to attract loads of eyeballs to Motorcycle.com. It's a never-ending tussle of one-upsmanship among the Japanese manufacturers, as models that ruled in one year often get usurped by the latest and greatest newly developed contenders.

So the Kawa wins.. Hmmm... just sat on one at my local dealer. (thats it) reminds me of the Ninja 250 I rode for 5 hours doing my MSF course that had 41,000 on it. Ha! R6 forever. I'm so glad I purchased the R6...

Maybe I'm just a creature of habit... Anyone ride one yet?

Ya, Im curious as well, i have always liked kawi, but never loved em. even there few year old 636 was ground breaking, but still ended up being beat. I think the two nicest bikes out there now are the R6 and gsxr600
