When Kawasaki re-introduced the ZX-6R with its 636cc engine this year, we figured it was time to pit it against the Suzuki GSX-R750 and Triumph Daytona 675R in an Oddball Middleweight Sportbike shootout.

Looks like last year’s Triumph did well against the others in this “odd ball class” . When is the re-test with the 2013 Daytona?
The old D675 is still the best bike out there if you want a light weight bike that also is telepathic when it comes to the handling.
Is the GXR750 the best street-bike ever made?
My opinion: After 3 hours of watching comparison youtubes, only better competition I could find was the Ducati 899. But that looses big league in terms of value for money. So I’m thinking the GXR750 is, overall, the best street bike of all time. It’s been around for 25+ years. Boy ‘d like to know of a better street bike. And this bike suits taller riders (Fireblade doesn’t).
After 10 long minutes, it wasn’t a proper review….
-_________-
This guy’s hair is seriously not behaving accordingly with his age.
Mmmmm Ninja
In my opinion triumph daytona 675r is the best bike because ‘it sounds the best’, its brakes n suspension are the best in class, it offers quick shifter, n it has got inline 3 cylinders which produces maximum torque for a drag..
Am I the only one who thinks all ninjas look similar every year and are always predictable? ..and the GSXR is just outright boring to look at :/
japanese bike so bored
Exactly once you decide the size and type of bike you want its all personal preference after that.
for me … the gixer and quack are Ugly
636 still a 600 just kawasaki cheating, the 675 has bigger capacity because it has a cylinder defecit, who ever turned this into a shoot out are morons.
I spent $600 on a custom Led headlight for my gsxr 750 and it’s ugliness has gone away. I added a lot of other mods and now the bike is gorgeous! No 600 can keep up with it and the powerband is more like a liter bike.
This video influenced my decision to go ahead and buy a new GSXR 750
What kind of external mic do you guys use to record? Voice sounds so clear.
I considered all three of these last time I went bike shopping. I ended up buying a Triumph Street Triple, which is the naked version of the Daytona 675.
My mother called your parents, our parents don’t want us hanging out anymore. We get in to much trouble together:)
Those sideburns though.
no r6 r1?
I’ll take the Daytona every day of the week, and twice on Sundays.
I’m a new rider. Should I get the R6 they 675r or the Kawasaki.
compare a triple IL4’s?
*slow clap*
the triumph retains its value more than the other bikes
The NEW Triumph 765rs is the King of the Middleweight Class hands down…
and the winner goes to CBR600 😀
the Suzuki GSXR 750 is the most PURE bike here, its the REAL SUPER BIKE 750 cc engine, SUZUKI INVENTED THE SUPER BIKE CONCEPT, so i dont think that 750 its an oodball, hey but its just me 😉
So what? It’s still doesn’t fair to compare 600s with GSX-R750. Especially when GSX-R600 exists, jerk.
Nice short video. Love they do reviews on both track and street.
Its always been hard to beat the gsxr 750, its the winner in my eye’s fo’sho!!!
In 2013 my step-son was about to get the Daytona 675R but went with the GSX-R750 instead. The reason, the insurance on the Daytona was way,way higher than the GSX-R750 here in California.
Shocker..the 750 beats out the 600’s
disappointing you guys didn’t wait for the 2013 Daytona 🙁
Ew the triumph is so small it pisses me off. Just… Seriously it’s so tiny.
That GSXR is one ugly MOFO. The triumph on the other hand I want to wine and dine… and get to know her first.
Triumph looked like a cheap toy back then….not sure though if it still looks like this today
read the title dumbass.
not a big deal but when he said upside down forks i was just like ” -.- , just say inverted”
:34 dem gsxr boys always showing off..
R6 ( the queen)> Daytona 675r> CBR 600RR> ZX-6R.
I would buy a daytona, my favorite…
The triumph is not an “odd ball” displacement, the 636 and 750 are – they can’t be raced in any major categories. But supersports racing allows 600cc 4cyl, 675cc 3cyl, and 750cc 2 cyl. This is why manufacturers pick one of those three configs. Ducati used to make the 748 and 749 twins. Other companies used to make 675 triples, today it’s just Triumph and MV. And of course, many companies make 600cc 4 cyls, that’s the most common. But none of those are “oddball” sizes.
the 750 is not too much heavier than other two right. maybe just 20lbs more
Odd ball?
TIP: Criticize a lot more. Others, including me, come to videos like this to find a bike to look more into. We know they are all good, and that is why pointing out every single “weak” point of the bike(s) is what we are looking for. Hope others agree and like this comment so it will be seen.
this is stupid but fun.
I remember when 750 was ‘the’ displacement for a sports bike due to the rules in WSB racing.
What’s so odd with a 750?
GSX-R 750 has been build since 1985.
Hey, why the hell you comparing GSX-R750 with 600-category sport bikes? It should be GSX-R600.
