A mechanical anomaly took the Triumph 600 Daytona out of the running early.

Mountain roads fall easy prey to the sharp handling R6.

Beautiful and fast.

A lean, green, twisties machine.

36 more ccs mean more ponies – not a bad thing.

The Suzuki makes molehills out of mountain roads.

The Gixer 600 is always ready to strike.

Aggressive styling suits the CBR just fine.

Hit the corners hard. The Honda likes it that way.

Exhaust gasses exit stage right on all but the CBR.

Maximum fork adjustability and decent wind protection are common features.

Trick, reinforced swingarms grace the CBR, GSXR, and the R1.

More traditional, but the ZX6-R swingarm doesn't cede anything to the other three.

Good, stout brakes grace all the players in the 600 super-sport game.
