BEST 2022 600cc Supersport (Buyer's guide) 

Am I the only one who wants BMW to make a 600cc with the new aesthetics?

I love Suzukis hate how they haven't been updating their bikes. I actually love how they look with the integrated signals, and the single headlight (though they should move to a smaller LED unit) and man do GSXRs look gorgeous in that Ecstar racing blue.

Excellent video! I love how "thorough" you were in ranking these bikes and I honestly agree with You on about 99% of it as well!!! Well done Sir!!!

This is the exact video that I've been looking for. Specific details and differences between the kings of 600cc superbikes. thank you

The new 22 636 has no steering dampener causing it to easily get speed wobble’s. It is a huge safety issue that has to be taken into consideration. Ride safely guy’s.

You just helped me find my next option of bike choices greatly. The black and grey color scheme of the zx6r looks absolutely awesome. I may consider the zx6r for my next choice.

Glad you’re back making EXCELLENT videos!!!

My bought new 2005 CBR600RR looks pretty similar to the 2022 version. It’s a classic motorcycle I never get tired of riding or admiring.

I love my Orange '20 ZX6R! Great video, very objective.

just finished a restoration on a 2013-2019cbr and its amazing got it for +/- 2700USD and its on 80 000 miles still runs like a dream after being crashed 3 times

I just picked up a 21 CBR600 about a month ago with 500 miles after years not riding. My first street bike was an 02 gsxr600. Bike is a riot ton of fun commute 1hr to work an 1hr back when the weather is clear!

We've been missing you so much!

Wow. The detail in this video is amazing. Such an informative video and EXACTLY what I was looking for. The exact years of the bikes I’m looking into as well as the bikes themselves. Also, describing your build was genius and were built the exact same lol. So thank you!

Was expecting an upload from you sir. Really missed your vedios. Thanks. Hope all fine there🙂

Best value is a zx6r *Shows a zx25r* Love your videos man i miss em

yesss i’ve been waiting for this video

Love your videos ! But where have you been the last 3 months ?

Yes you finally uploaded

great video thanks for the effort you put into making it. Liked and subscribed

excellent video as always! can you also made 2022 300/400 cc guide too? thanks!

Love the single headlight and engine so it's the GSXR for me..

I hate to disappoint you as the new 21/22 CBR600RR is sold and readily available in Australia. It is however litre bike expensive, although no where near as expensive as it’s big brother, the newly updated Fireblade with lots of “R’s”. I’ve also ridden the new CBR600RR and also the Kawasaki (and the latest Suzuki and Yamaha). The Honda actually feels lighter, quicker and has a heap more tech and if price wasn’t an issue then it’s easily the best bike in each category. Just one reason why Australia is called the lucky country. 👍😎🇦🇺

I agree, Kawasaki is rhe most streetable 600... Especially with that extra mid range the others dont have from the extra CC's. I own a modded 2018 Ninja 400 and a bone stock 2023 R7... Eyeing out a second hand 636 to add to my collection and possibly start track riding with it.

All these bike are so close in every aspect, you can’t lose with any of these picks. It’s just like Coke or Pepsi, Chevrolet or Ford, it’s all about preferences.

In first place it's the ZX-6R: proceeds to show a pic of the ZX-25R

How would the GSXR 750 fit and work into this category yes it’s a little bigger but…..

such a tough choice. i was gonna go with a r6, 2017 and up, thats my dream bike but since they dont make them anymore, the prices r crazy, used with 4000-8000 miles they r going for msrp or even 1-2k more. a brand new one has been price gouged to 15k. kawasaki ive never been interested and same with gxsr. this leaves me with honda, but aesthetically it doesnt look that good for me (besides 2022) and from my research it seems to be the slowest one out of them. (thats with seeing smackdown cbr vs r6 and dyno tests.) hell if they made the front like the r6 or a zx10r id get it tbh. ive heard it is the comfiest though, but i would love to take my bike out to the track and the r6 is a track dominator. maybe ill try to get myself to like the zx6r, if i were to get one the first thing id do is wrap it or paint it. not a huge fan of the green color. edit: after watching the video, the 2022 honda is pretty nice. if i were to get a honda it would have to be 2022. actually really unfortunate its not in the u.s. i love the features and digital dash.

Yamaha is still offering a new 2022 R6, but it's for track use only because Yamaha couldn't make the R6 engine euro 5 compliant. Although I suppose you could still convert one for the street

Just last week i was thinking about wheel weight for my car, and remembered you made the carbon rim video for the rc51... then I got thinking I hadnt seen a video from you in my feed in a while. Was worried bro

GSX-R is the most comfy 0 doubt with the best power band, but the CBR is really close to it in both and I like the looks of the CBR the most out of of all of these even tho I'm a Suzuki guy. The ZX6R is a sick bike and no doubt the most updated, potent and modern of the bunch so you can't go wrong there--- then the R6 was no question the least practical, worst power band(too peaky with no mid range)and ultra uncomfortable. I'm a pretty fit guy and can ride a Gixxer600 all day but that R6 is painful LOL.... I don't think abs and trac control is needed on a 600 so I'm still partial to the Gixxer-- the Gixxer frame and suspension is just so perfect and I love the way their 600 engine makes it's power that's why I have one.

I could not be more satisfied with that list. Bravo 👏

New content 😍

Honda hands down the best looking bike!

Fun fact: The cbr600, R6, and gsxr600 are all discontinued or announced that no further improvement will be made to these bikes (namely the gsxr, that is discontinued everywhere but america, but suzuki has already said it has no plans of updating this bike), making this video pretty meh, since going forward the only bike that will be purchasable is the 636. Tbh the R7 is all you need for the streets or the track, so i would say it fills the void left by the R6 in a good way, be it a totally different bike.

Nice video. Am i alone in thinkin undertail looks less appealing then a side exhaust??

Kawasaki is king in all sport bikes and a lot of people hate on Kawasaki but you just can't I mean they are king the H2 RR is 300 Horsepower stock the busa killer all the way around kawasaki ninja makes a super fast bike.. I love honda as well I have 2 kawasaki ZX6R 08 and a kawasaki 2012 1000cc and a honda cbr fireblade 929 2000. Love them all. Honda and kawasaki the best super sport bikes you can get my opinion tho.

If you’re going to take it to the track exclusively, gotta go with the R6. The Honda looks nice, but I’ll bet it’s heavier and still lacks some ponies compared to the R6.

Great video! Of the bike you've ridden, which has the smoothest engine? I can't stand vibrating and buzzy grips haha, bugs the heck out of me when cruising on the highway and the bars buzz and your hands go numb. Thanks!

The Japanese cbr600rr is actually tuned down compared to the US production due to emissions my guess

Thw Zx6r is a great bike.

Excellent video! Would love to see this comparing it with other bikes from around the world too!

I got a 17 gsxr600. Not the prettiest but man its a really good bike

Also you randomly showed a 2008 special edition GSX-R600 at 0:55 😂

I'm getting the Suzuki soon

I’m shopping right now for a brand new 600 and I live in Canada. I’m unable to get the cbr600rr or r6 so it’s between a gixxer 6er or a Zx6r. I’m just not a fan of any of the Zx6r Color’s right now. I’m considering a gsxr750 the white and grey one

Did opening say r7 inline 4 thoughtbit was twin? Did i see and hear that wrong?

2021 Cbr600rr is available in New Zealand, Australia and Japan. As far as I know.

636 gang

Anyone know if you can do a JDM front fairing + headlight conversion on the 2013+ U.S. CBR600RR??

Do you think suzuki with make a 2023 Gsxr600?

buying a zx6r next month 💪

I would prefer the GSXR due to it's utter lack of BS features I don't want or need. The ZX6 would be second due to power to weight ratio. I like the looks of the Honda but I don't ride or drive anything for the looks.

my pick would be the GSXR because the ratio is good and more importantly i want to ride my bike myself. i don't like when bikes feel different all the time and take care of every situation. i think i would not be able to really learn how to ride a bike. what if your helpers fail ? can you ride your bike safely in the rain then ? anyway - thanks for the very informative video !

Two words ! Moore Mafia !

The Cbr600r will outlive that kawi...resell value and well its a CBR600r the iconic bike and UNDERTAIL EXHAUST

exactly......if you can nab a gxsr for say $9500 it would be worth considering.......Kawi just needs to lose that air craft carrier cannon of a silencer and it would look fine.....a slip on would really help the looks

For all the good looks and high-tech that the new CBR has, you would think they could at least put a fuel gauge onto that beautiful LCD screen ! But noooooo.

Do r6 still exists after the launch of r7?

tfw the zx6r is retailing for approximately 1.45x the price of it in the US in my country.

I ❤️ my gunmetal/black 22 zx6r

i am new to this bike market is cbr 600 rr is slower than cbr650r and for the yamaha r6 is slower than r7 and is gsx6r is discontinued

Zuk has championships they figure they don’t need an update! But giving the fact that the 750 is racing in Super Sport now, the 600’s are about to go away. Stay safe Bruddah!

Why wasn’t the 2022 cbr 600rr used to compare?

That power figure lol. My R6 made 113hp to the rear wheel. That’s with a exhaust and a flashed ECU but that power figure seems way off

I'd wish we had the honda cbr600rr from Japan.

How do we get this CBR here in the us?

14:00 "PLEASE DONT KILL ME IF THATS WRONG"

Remember you sold me the zx6r. This video finalized it

I hope they bring back the R6 as I’d love to have one after my LAMs bullshit is done

Great review. I could not go with the Ninja though, as I can't stand the look of it. That short tail & protruding number plate & rear lights is horrible.

Just another Ninja W. 😎

If they are in stock and not marked u up 100%

I personally don't think the R6 is gone. Throughout History everytime a Manufacturer does something like this it's always been to Redesign it from the Ground up. I think it we Return sometime around 2025.

this was a good video for tech nerds who look at paper stats more than ride... a good 89% of all the tech talk and trinket items that dealers use to sell bikes wont even be used by street riders. the other 11% are people who actually track their bikes. Best way to make a decision is to test ride each one and make your personal decision. I don't know how many people i helped buy bikes, rode home for them, taught how to ride, got into sport bikes... and they all let their bikes collect dust so all the ABS, TC, wheelie control does jack shit except make your payment higher lol

Is cbrrr600 out of prodoctsuon in eu ??

Ok I want a 600RR

Honda is always the most well rounded product.

So what do you recommend? What should I buy?

Guys what is the cheats 600cc I can buy with ABS? And maybe even traction control?

I’m Getting my first bike and rn im Stuck between the 1 the Honda and 2 the ninja 😫

600cc Inline-4s are the funnest bikes to ride, and they have more than enough power to go fast. Liter Bikes are kinda boring to ride, as we can just stay in 2nd gear, and we really don't wind up the motor with high revs like we do the 600s. Of all these 600s, the CBR600RR is the only choice for me. Here in the USA in 2024, we do NOT get the Gen6 CBR 600RR, but regardless I still would rather much have a Gen5 CBR 600RR. I don't care that the 2024 USA Honda CBR 600RR has the exact same engine as the 2009. It still looks the best with the best graphics. That red, white, and blue color on it looks amazing, and that underseat exhaust is so super sexy. I am a Honda and Yamaha guy. I can't ever see myself riding a Kawi or Suzuki. Hondas have always been easy to ride and the most comfortable. They are also the most reliable, and are basically bomb proof, so there is also that. CBRs can easily go 100k miles, and there is even one CBR out there that went 300k miles. I have owned a 1994 F2, 1996 CBR 900RR, 1999 F4, 1999 R6, 2001 R1, and 2004 R6, with the F4 and the 2 R6s being my track only and race bikes. I like Yamahas more as canyon carvers and track bikes, but the Hondas are better overall just better street bikes, while being pretty decent in both the canyons and the track. All these power numbers do NOT really matter because it is always 99% rider, and at the end of the day its all about the lap times. I know I can make decent lap times on any of these bikes, as I have won trophies before. So my choice goes to the bike I think looks the best, and that is the Gen5 CBR 600RR, which has been sold in the USA from 2015-2024. I am NOT a big fan of the headlights or the winglets on the Gen6 CBR 600RRs, but I will still pick the Gen6 CBR over the others.

You put a pick of the zx25r

You should do a naked bike buyers guide love those things

for the cost, get the ninja and use your extra $3k to get a full exhaust and ecu flash

The 636 is the most uncomfortable bike I have ever sat on. The seat is more like a ramp than a seat, and it's hard as a rock. The GSXR ergos are pure luxury by comparison.

Hey Hero, I would have to agree with you, but….. there is also the Z900 SE that sells for about the same money, and is arguably a better street bike. And to your point, Honda no longer is selling their 600 here, Yamaha has discontinued the R6, and the Gixxer hasn’t been ungraded in a Blue Moon! So, just a caveat that you might bring up in a subsequent video?

How would your 2008 CBR600RR compare with these bikes? I'm really looking at buying one as it's still the lightest generation.

I have a 21 cbr600rr that I bought in the states

The gsxr is around 3,500$ less than a zx6r in the Midwest

it would even cost suzuki much to update their bike......chassis, brakes, motor are all fine....weight is best in class, throw a TFT and LED lights, and some rider aids......maybe sharpen up angles on fairing and they would have a stunner most important thing is reliability and comfort on the street as this is where most of these bikes live their life.......if going to track clipons and rear sets are easy to dial in ergos if one chooses. hard to argue with kawasaki....either this or GSXR 750 for street bike......sucks Honda doesnt release the bike over here but they figure it wont sell so why ship them.....if supersport sales were up they would have shipped them have a duke 890 R but always wanted a supersport.......

i own the r6 and it rulz tha roost

CBR600RR 2-handed price is higher than official now.

what 600 do u guys suggest for a tall guy?

Pwr to weight = power/weight so with your numbers you should probably call it "weight to power ratio"

You got the weights of the cbr and the zx6r backwards. The cbr weighs 194kg and the zx6r weighs 197kg

i think the r6 looks like a shark love it but the cbr600 is the best looking this year

1:29 nope.... the GSX-R600 has been unchanged since 2011...

Kawasaki ninja zx 6r. ❤️❤️❤️

I still personally put 1 thing above all else as bikes are so close in most categories. Reliability owned 3bdofferent yrs of kawasaki 600s, bullet proof motors clutchband even the rest of bik parts fail real rarely. Have friends with all four brands and different yrs. In my oersonal experience and friends issues kawi. Most reliable. Put 60k.on one 600 not one part failed not clutch ststor coils nothing. Not many 600 sportbikes can claim that

You should cover middleweight naked bikes (mt07, street triple, tuono 660, etc)
