How much Bike is 750 vs 600?

I ride an R3 and am looking to upgrade in the next 2 to 3 months. I love the look of the k6/k7 as well as the k8-L0 gsxrs and honestly, both the 600 and 750 are appealing. I understand the 750 is quite the jump in power and torque (expecially from an R3) over the 600, but I am wondering what that actually means for the street. I want a bike that is fun first, fast second.

The 750 is undoubtedly quick, but would the 600 be more fun on the street because you have to shift through the gears more often to achieve the same speed? Might be a weird hypothetical, but hopefully it gets the point across. I get that the 750 is a lot of people's "sweet spot" for the street, but for my needs, is it worth getting the 600cc because it's going to scream more to get the same outcome as the 750?

In Short: is the 750 more fun because it's fast, or the 600 because it has to be worked (revved) harder?

Question About Gsxr1000 Cluster

Anyone seen or dealt with this. It’s smooth to the touch. I’m thinking I can pull it and replace the top assembly with an oem one. Wondering if anyone else seen this before

Exhaust Advice!?

Any recommendations or advice on the best exhaust? I’ve narrowed my choices down to either Yoshi or M4 full exhaust for my GSXR-750. Any tips on those as well are welcome 🙏🏾

Bent Braxket

I recently bought a k8 750 and when inspecting noticed that the lean angle of the bike was SEVERELY tilted. Previous owner said they bought a kickstand taken off another k8 but I’m guessing it was lowered and this is a shortened kickstand.

Does the bracket look bent or does this seem to be a shortened kickstand issue?

2025 Gsxr Fender Eliminator

Hey guys, 2 questions!! HELPP
i bought a gsxr1000 2025 and am looking to remove the rear fender. But was hoping to find a tucked license plate bracket that doesnt come with turning signals. Anyone know where i can find that? I had seen the new rage cycles one that comes with the turning signals but im wondering if im able to separate the lights from the bracket and install the bracket on its own?

also am looking into replacing oem taillight w an integrated taillight. Im wondering if one that says it fits a 2017-2020 gsxr1000 would work on mine? Correct me if im wrong but i had it understood that its the same rear end 2017+ but im not 100% ?

If Anyone can lmk thanks 🙂‍↕️

Need help!

So I have a 2018 Gsx-r 750 and my clutch cable was breaking at the lever end and so I took it off and replaced it. In doing so I had to remove the gas tank to get to the bolt behind the frame. Everything seemed fine when I put it all back together and so I went to start it all my lights cut on, fuel pump started but the lights went out when I hit the ignition button and it seemed like the battery was dead from sitting. So I hooked it up to my tender for a little and tried to start it a little long. NOW about 2 hours after putting everything back together the F1 light cut on and the bike doesn’t do anything now when I cut it on except show the F1 light. Anybody know why?

I'm quite confused about chain length. Does it matter?

First time changing my chain on my gsxr 600 I bought used. Counted teeth on sprockets and they were the same as stock. Ordered the correct stock spec chain. 525. 114 link. I get it put on after struggling to learn to rivet and when taught it sits on the furthest back mark on the swingarm now, at 1. The old chain it was at like 2.5. Most bikes I've seen I'm pretty sure sit between the 2nd and 3rd line. So basically when I need to tighten later I won't have any marks to use. It looks weird cuz my adjustment bolts are all pushed all the way out to get the chain taught also. Is this really an issue at all? I hear people say it's normal to have to cut down a chain to size, although I've heard some say not to do that but just buy correct size. I mean is there any real effect if the chain is a link or two shorter? Meaning will it cause any damage in the chain and sprocket setup, with how everything falls into place together? It appears if I were to shorten my chain, to get to the next connecting inside link it would then make it shorter then the original even. Check the pic. Hope someone can clarify this for me. I'm just trying to learn and don't have a source really besides the Internet lol.

K7 600 battery just died on me.

I bought the bike last year, it has a relocated rectifier, and I put a new battery in it recently.

Started up fine this morning then went for a 45 minute ride stopped to get beer and it wouldn't start battery too low.

I feel like this is so common on these hopefully someone can tell me my exact next steps to take thanks.

2011 gsxr 1000

Can anyone help me diagnose this idle issue. It will idle normally till it gets hot then the idle becomes erratic. It becomes an issue when I’m out riding and it stalls at stop lights. I just replaced the fuel strainer thinking that would fix it but it did not. Don’t worry about the fuel light there’s definitely plenty of fuel.

What can I do about this garbage???

This is “factory” the oem brake hose line did the same thing, cracked and wore down, so I replaced the whole thing, and I’ve replaced these like 2-3 times now cause the brake hose is at such a shitty angle it’s so kinked that it cracks and gets brittle, a longer hose does nothing, a shorter hose does nothing, it’s not mounted improperly, im so tired of this garbage.
