The launch of the 2011 Triumph Daytona 675R to the world’s media at the Portimao Circuit in Portugal highlighted the increased sporting potential of Triumph’s new premium version of its class-leading machine thanks to the addition of Öhlins suspension.The 675R is the first Triumph to be equipped with Öhlins suspension as original equipment, a move that gained praise from members of the world’s motorcycling press who exclusively rode the bike during the two-day launch.
Öhlins Racing has completed final testing and is now ready to launch a complete range of suspension upgrade kits for the 2011 Suzuki GSX-R600, further enhancing the sporting potential of this already extremely impressive supersport 600 machine. The brand new GSX-R600 has been designed to be the ultimate supersport machine with Suzuki concentrating its development focus on the chassis. Having spent a number of years out of the supersport race scene, Suzuki are confident the new GSX-R600 will be back at the sharp end of the grid and Öhlins has developed a suspension package that will allow it to get there.
