What is the hp and tq difference on a 600 and 750
Alrighty...here we go...
With the GSXR750, they did the make over in 2000 (as you can see in my above post).
With the GSXR600, they did the make over in 2001. So the 2000 GSXR600 (my 2nd bike by the way) is carburated, and they changed that in 2001 with the fuel injection. Similar to the 750, when Suzuki changed to fuel injection, they also lightened the weight, and changed the look. The 2001 GSXR600 and 2000 GSXR750 look similar. Just different paint schemes.
Heres some spces:
2000 GSXR600:
-383 lbs DRY
-Carburated
-180/55-17 rear
-109.7 hp @ 11,800rpm and 67.6 lbs torque @ 10,000rpm
2001 GSXR600:
-359 lbs DRY
-Fuel Injected
-180/55-17 rear (same as 2000)
-115hp @ 13,000 and 69 @ 10,800rpm
So your lookin at about 25 more hp with the 750. And about 15 lbs. more torque with the 750. But, GET THIS....the 2001 GSXR750 weighs only 5 pounds more than the 2001 GSXR600!!!
And with 25 more hp, thats an awsome hp/weight ratio improvement.:o
