Engineered by Gilera for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2002 Gilera SuperSport 600 relies on a 599 cc (36.6 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the SuperSport 600 measures 162 kg (357 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,392 mm (54.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
