A 1991-92 listing of the 592 cc liquid-cooled Ninja 600 with a DOHC transverse four, four carburettors and air-assisted suspension. The page's test text is a 1990 Cycle World review, so its commentary describes an earlier bike than the year range suggests. It is presented as the late first-generation 600R before the 598 cc 1993 model.
