- To decrease engine weight and improve heat transfer, the cylinders have linerless, electroplated aluminum bores

- The combustion chamber uses a pentroof/semi-hemi design with a higher compression ratio for more low end torque ad more power throughout the rev range

- The alternator, sump, cylinder head, clutch, and cam chain covers are magnesium to cut weight

Liquid Cooling

- The automatic fan is on the left side of the curved aluminum radiator to save space

- Includes an LCD temperature gauge

- A liquid-cooled oil cooler helps keep the oil cool

Twin Ram Air Induction

- Large ducts for more air pressure, which increases high speed power

- The extended opening increases pressure in the system for excellent volumetric efficiency

Kawasaki Throttle Responsive Ignition Control (K-TRIC)

- A throttle position sensor (TPS) tells the ignition unit how hard the engine is working so it can set the best ignition timing

Transistor Controlled Breakerless Ignition with Digital Advance

- A 16-bit central processing unit responds more quickly to engine needs

- Never needs adjustment

- The rotor has 12 projections to update the processor often

Spark Plug-Mounted Ignition Coils

- Four small ignition coils are in the spark plug caps to reduce overall weight, take up less room, and provide strong, consistent spark

Catalyzer

- To meet emissions limits and make even more power at the same time, both California and 49-state models have a pre-catalyzer in the pipe leading to the muffler

- California models also have a catalyzer in the muffler

Fully Adjustable 46mm Cartridge Front Fork

- Large 46mm fork tubes are extra rigid to improve handling performance on the street

Bottom-Link UNI-TRAK® Rear Suspension

- Extruded aluminum swingarm is lightweight and rigid

- Linage ratios offer smooth and linear suspension response

- Upper shock mount is threaded for ride height adjustment

Dual Semi-Floating Front Disc Brakes

- The six-piston opposed front brake calipers have differential size pistons and aggressive pad material for excellent feel and bite

- 300mm discus are 5mm thick to stand up to extreme use

220mm Rear Disc Brake

- Small overall diameter saves weight

- Lightweight, single-piston caliper produces quick, sure stops

Lightweight Aluminum Perimeter Frame

- Short wheelbase and steep head angle produce quick, responsive handling

- Rigid design assures good handling and durability

Electronic Instrumentation

- The speedometer includes a coolant temperature gauge, odometer, trip meter, and a clock

- The tachometer incorporates a coolant warning light

Comfortable Riding Position

- The most comfortable Supersport 600 period

- The handlebars are an easy reach, a nice flat seat gives comfort for long rides and wide mirrors reveal more than your shoulders

- The fairing and windscreen offer an easy ride with great protection from the elements
