has more to do with the rider than the bike. even the track has a lot to do with it, if it was a long track with long straights that extra 2.7hp alone could count for the .11 lap time dif. FFS hutchs time from fastest to slowest were less than half a second.

They still picked the 600 overall, but I'd say the 600rr is at best equal in class to the other 600's. The r6 has the track advantage, IMO, considering technology.

Im a honda boy at heart, But im not brand loyal by choice; more by chance. I know pretty much every magazine article is biased and skewed, but it does say something when they consistantly pick one brand over the others regardless of unconstant variables like lap times and top speeds.

but still, i dont buy into hype, and i think the gsxr is the most overhyped brand name since Harley Davidson. its good, great even, but dayum there are 3 other brands out there that are just as good.
