What an amazingly underrated bike, due to its bigger Gixxer brother it seems the "Teapot" gets forgotten about.
Although with around 80 BHP and a 0-60 of around 4.5 secs its no slouch and with a couple of careful mods will easily keep up with modern sportsbikes.
I bought mine for the tidy sum of £300 with another £150 going on it for the MOT but its only done 29k miles so should be good for a few more yet due to the ever reliable bandit engine. Seriously for a first bike you cant go far wrong.

First of 2 Katanas... 2000 model (red), started out as a reasonably nice bike, about what the reviews all said. Then I added a corbin seat for all day touring in comfort. Comfy. Threw on Givi hardsided bags for the same reason (50 liter bags) -- note, the install instructions for the rack are slightly off (buy some extra washers). Installed a new jet kit and changed over to Castrol R4 synthetic motor oil (5W-40) and suddenly guys on GSXR's were wondering how it was that a 600 Katana was flying by them on the highways (in part because I do drive faster) & keeping up with their acceleration up to about 130 MPH. Still, handling pretty much sucked. Tweaked the suspension settings for days on end (one change at time to get a feel for it) until I found the right settings, and then I slapped on some Metzeler ME Z4's and suddenly everything changed -- knee down in the corners, that sort of thing... See http://www.cyberpoet.net/motorcycle/katana/upgr/KatanaUpgrades.html for the upgrade list that has suddenly become mandatory. Second one is a 2001 Katana 600 (blue) that I picked up cheap a month ago... Is there any better praise than buying the same bike again? The upgrade process starts over, but she's even nicer in some ways to start with than the old one... Cheers from Florida!

My first bike was a 13 year old GSX400F, grey import. A bit tired and tatty but comfy and reliable. I then got a 1999 600F and was pleasantly surprised on the handling. Yes, it is heavy and you have to work a bit harder, but the rewards are obvious - comfortable on the long haul and if you want to play there is plenty of juice to keep up with, and pass, the bigger boys on their thourough-bred sports bikes. No walking like John Wayne at the end of the ride either! I agree with the other reviewers that braided hoses are the only way ahead for the brakes, I use HEL. I have also fitted a Beowolf End-Can as the collector pipe/box rotted through on the OEM. I ride year round so Bridgestone BT020 front and rear are the order of the day. Build quality of the engine is superb, end finish is a problem, chain tension adjustors etc have gone rusty, bit of bitch to replace - cost wise. Thourough cleaning after each ride is mandatory to keep it tip-top. Only electrical fault was the main ignition lead where it passes under the tank had rotted through at the connector - badly fitted insulation allowing water to get in, coupled with vibration. Took ten minutes to find, and five to repair. Other than that very happy riding and looking forward to putting some serious miles on the clock! Does not deserve its rep as a compromise, it does everything I need it to, not everyone can afford an out and out sports beast as a toy, even less can actually ride them properly otherwise insurance for them would not be so high. As a first real bike it is superb, as a sports tourer it is more than adequate and finally as a Sunday afternoon blast, I take an extra hour to go to work and everyday is a Sunday.

My first sports bike - very smooth after many old bangers. Quite fast enough for me - had 135 registered. Had no problems other than replacing the clutch cable - about

Awesome first bike. It's cheap to buy, cheap to ride, and if you keep it around 7 grand and above she'll keep with the other notorious Suzuki (GSX-R). It's a pain to take the fairing off EVERY time you need to adjust or fix something. Without a radiator the mods are limited but it is still plenty quick enough and great on gas. Glad to have it as my first bike.

Absolutely fantastic as a work horse and fun machine. Gets me from A to B faster than a twist of lemon, traffic madness a distant memory, as I glide past the Road Quads! Long time since I have ridden but I'm so glad I made decision to get back on two wheels. Great bike no worries so far and I have found a great, cheap spares dealer too.

I've had the GSX600F for about a year. It's been down the road a couple of times now but is still going strong. I'm just in the process of gettting it back on the road and yes I know whats been said about them the teapot, but I think for a grand which is what it cost me its a very good bike. I've had it standing on its hind legs and had its arse in the air plenty of times so power delivery is ok and braking is certainly ok. And theres all the other benefits such as cheap to run, cheap to insure, cheap to mantain and as I have found out on two occasions now cheap to repair. And if you got the know how and the balls to ride it hard gives any other 600 a run for its money and see whose playing catch up when me and the lads are out playing, not me... Good solid all rounder with a litle demon simmering underneath that teapot exterior.

Still riding the old beast, I have gone through four front tyes and three rear and will have to buy a new set soon. I have found parts easy enough to obtain. Clutch cables see to snap easly. I have changed the drive sprockets and chain and it makes a great deal of difference to the performance. Still love the bike and riding

Only had this bike for 4 days. It has been seriously retro'ed by previous owner. All I can say is that as a first bike since doing DAS 4 weeks ago, it is fantastic and a bargain at 900 quid. For a 15 year old bike with 25k on the clock it runs like a new one and has no vices that I have managed to find in the last 250 miles. All this and
