i had the same zx6r.... 2019, same exact one.... having ridden a gsxr750, an r6, and a honda cbr 600 i dont think people realize just how special the zx6r is... It just simply does not feel like it has the same limitations as those other 600's... My zx6r felt really fast, it felt more like a 750 then it did a 600. It just blows my mind what Kawasaki was able to do with that 636 motor... It truly feels more powerful then it should... best 600, hands down... fantastic Showa suspension, and somehow those NISSIN calipers seem to work just as good as bremobs... Kawi really knocked it out of the park with this piece of kit!!

mark pulling you wouldn’t be worried by going to the 1000 that you would lose some of the fun on the road with a litre bike? I imagine with the 636 you can open it up and not be going crazy speed

Hi I'd go for the z900 as a first bike You'll find the riding position much more learner friendly for your first couple of years to develop your skills ...the z650 Is probably a better bet sensible head but as long as you take it steady the z900 should be fine Good luck with your riding career Best regards mark

@markpulling122 жыл бұрын
Hi I wouldn't really recommend either as a first bike ( doing my sensible thing on KZbin now ) as they are both super fast and powerful 150+ mph ..but if you do you may get on better with the gsx because of it's riding position ,the zx636i is pure racer position which can be tricky when you are learning to ride ....other options would be ninjja 650 z650 sv 650 mt07 ....but as long as you go steady for the first few months and build up your skills you should be fine Good luck with your biking career 👍 Cheers mark

Hi Mark, great review. I have a 2002 ZX9R and have been pondering updating it to one of the latest sports bikes. I don’t think I need a litre 200 bhp bike, and I like the look of this. I’m 6 foot tall, do you think I’d be comfortable on it? I live near a Ducati dealer so I’m also tempted to try a Panigale V2, have you tried one of those?
@markpulling124 жыл бұрын
Hi David you'd be fine at 6ft on this ..it's reasonably comfy for a sports bike...yes I've done 100 Mile's on a panigale 899 and tbh it's about the same comfort as my ninja ...it had a nice bar position as I recall :)

Yeah new 636 is rly great, got about 1000miles on it. One thing i noticed though is that the quickshifter sometimes rly jerks you forward pretty good, especially in 1. to 2. gear. Is that something you have on yours aswell or is this something i could get fixed? Not that big of a deal though, but still annoying at times :)
@markpulling124 жыл бұрын
Hi yes mine is exactly the same it's nothing wrong at all ...it's just that most quick shifters work best say 3-4 4-5 etc ..I don't tend to qs between 1 and 2 unless very gentle on the throttle All the best mark

hello! have you also test driven an R6 before getting the Ninja? The zx6r is also my favorite, but to avoid regrets, I also wanna test ride an R6, but easier said than done cause there aint none in my area, only complete new ones where the dealer refuse to provide test rides. Kinda stuck between just getting the zx6r now or wait until I get my R6 test ride some time in the future

@@markpulling12 Thanks for your replies Mark and apologies as I never check which account I'm replying from :D . Well the 890R improves on the 790 that I owned and really loved. Improvements to the brakes and tyres are very welcome as they were the only slight issues I had with the 790 but £10500 is not cheap. Its a tough choice as I do love a triple and at the price it is very tempting. Yes I hadn't kept my eye on Euro 5 being over here in the Philippines at the moment or I would have snapped up one of the last 2020 ZX6R's. I love supersports but don't particularly want to go to a 1000cc for road use. It's a shame the 600cc's are a dying breed as I find them perfect for the road. I'm not paying £12,000 for an R6 though :-0
