2020 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R Review | MC Commute

[@felixthecat1528]

The ride is ridiculously smooth absolutely amazing I freakin love it 👌🏾The only thing no one ever says about the quick shifter is that it’s kind of intuitive and anybody who owns the bike knows what I’m talking about The sound the Ergonomics dual head lights 👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏾so bright so Freakin awesome

I found mentioning the rev range and its power at a specific point compared to other bikes in it's class very usefull and a great addition.

I own this bad boy in orange and I couldn’t be any more happier. So so smooth!

[@fivespeed3026]

The only 636 I’ve ever ridden was a 2004 in metallic orange. I really liked it, but it wasn’t mine so I only got to ride it once.

[@user-jt6nw6wm5q]

you would be happier if it was green

[@Jmeez69]

I own one in black with green trim! IN LOVE

[@diz_-4167]

I also bought one in orange after my wife said no more Ducati Monsters due to maintenance frustration. We sat on plenty of cruisers and more comfortable naked style bikes but she loved this one the most and guess what.... it is the one she rides the least. My only complaints are the factory seat is clearly meant for track riding since it is unbelievably hard even compared to some of the liter bikes I've ridden with stock seats. What surprised me, is the small amount of torque down low is so accessible almost tractor like when leaving stops. Second and final complaint, that damn silver muffler does not go with the bike at all, in any trim and its on the ZX-10R. I didn't want to spend money for a new exhaust and tune but because of how hideous it looks to me, it is necessary. Looks and seat aside which are cheap fixes, there isn't more you could ask for in a bike like this.

[@mnstrmike4853]

This is one of the best reviews of the new ZX6R. Great Video sincerely! Mine is a 2019 storm Grey without abs. I got it 2 months ago and I've put 2900 miles on it so far. I'm actually dropping it off Thursday for my first oil change but the bikes second oil change after the first "break in".. it only had 1820 miles when I bought it. But yes it's very comfortable. I came off a 1500 kawasaki Vulcan and have only rode cruiser style bikes for 22 years. It took about a month to understand how to sit on and steering as well. But it's super comfortable and smooth. Especially when I got more familiar with it. I rest my left firearm on the tank and it takes 90% of weight off my entire lower body from lower back to my feet. So I can and have endured some long rides. I'm 40 years old as well. The control options and settings come in handy for rain and other circumstances that come up. The gears are very smooth but even when upshifting you have to be on the gasoline what when letting the clutch or engine braking will bog you way down Especially if you wind up rpms then upshift you will end up riding the tank if the gas is not initiated at least a little lmao. Engine braking is awesome!! And the front and back brake is really strong as well. Definitely has a lot of power and great throttle responses in lower rpms. But I think around 8 thousand rpms it comes alive fully. Truly an amazing experience riding the ZX6R. Very different from the cruiser bikes I am experienced with. Don't accidentally whiskey throttle. It's embarrassing and potentially harmful... But it's overall a great bike in looks and mechanically. Sounds great with factory exhaust but looks horrible in my opinion I can't miss a gas station... lmao if your in the throttle it drinks gas. I think I'd you drive it very low rpms it would be great on gas. I can't say at this point.. I'm not putting it around much. Ride safe, again great video really informative and accurate according to my experience on the 2019

I had a 2013 CBR600RR and i now i have a 2019 ZX6R .. Smooth & glide seem almost too vague but those are the best words to describe riding a ZX6R.. My old CBR600RR had a jerky throttle response and the ZX6R has a linear throttle response and power delivery ... My only gripe would be it feels like you sit on the ZX6R, and it felt like i sat in the CBR and i like the feeling of sitting in a bike better than the feeling of sitting on a bike!... Great review BTW

[@GoodAtHeart]

I regret selling my 2013 636.. switched up to a 2007 CBR1000RR and it’s not the same. The kawi was newer, sounded better and looked better. Lesson learned. EDIT: I got her back for 1,000 less than I paid and he only put 1800 miles on it. LETSSSSS GOOOO

I own one, "stepping back" from a 1100 Tuono V4 Factory. Totally back up your review. What a fantastic piece of engineering that ZX-6R is. You insisted on mid-range, but it is really only a bonus over its 16k rpm nobility. Appeals to no one today, but what a joy.

[@markay_]

How is the „step back „ working out for you? I got the zx6r a month ago after selling my mt09 sp. love the stable feeling in fast corners, the breaks, gearbox and looks! Sometime i miss the torque tho. But letting that little i4 engine scream is just too addicting haha

[@majinguru]

@@markay_ I feel like I have taken a lot of freedom back. On a supersport we can adjust our lines anytime anywhere in corners, even (or especially) if we have misjudged the entry. Yeah, missing that instant wave of torque from the 1100 V4, best engine I have ever had. But the 636 is a great mill, 130 hp is plenty enough really. Overall the ZX-6R is a very well refined machine.

Maybe in a GP racetrack with long straights it would do with a little bit more, but you need to be really skilled to get there.

I just got my motorcycle license (Frist Time Rider) I went to a dealership yesterday. I talked to the salesman and he showed me a Ninja 650 for my first bike. But after talking to people and doing some research it seems like you have to redline the 650 to have any real fun? Is the ZX-6R a beginner bike and is a big difference in power between a 650 and ZX-6R.

[@antjane6765]

636 power is 127 hp 650 has 60 hp Twice as powerful

[@cmbiker]

Trust me, you probably should not start out on a ZX6R. I started out on a 125cc then went up to 250cc then 400cc and eventually 750cc and higher. I'm sure if I had started out on a ZX6R I would have either killed myself or totaled the bike or both. If you want something more thrilling than the Ninja 650, check out the Yamaha MT-07 or R7 (same engine more or less as the MT-07 but in a sporty chassis). I had an MT-07 not long ago and it was a blast to ride.

Triumph does now make a Daytona MOto2 but its 765cc. Though the fact you can get a under $10k bike (before other charges, of course), great bike. I had 3 ZX-6Rs, and I loved every one of them!

[@Edward-ko9pn]

I have a suggestion. To add to our viewing enjoyment do a quick look down at the bike i.e. tank etc.. Of course do that when its safe to do so like when your stopped at red traffic light waiting to go.

Love that gauge cluster

[@KhalidMA]

What's it's bore and stroke difference which contribute to the enhanced torque thru out?

[@williamwintemberg]

Great Review!

"you can pull it out quickly and easily" 😂

[@ricerider2145]

Gotta learn to use the KIBS. Get to a parking lot that’s enough get ho to thirty , squeeze that tank with your legs and SLAM on those brakes progressively but sharply and hard Get used to a 100% stopping event. Then try it at 50% add a small swerve Then 100x bud then go ahead and try it while your steady turning . Try mashing the rear brake on a steady leaned turn . Then try some trail braking. Now make sure you have KIBS and not plain abs. But my bike with KIBS is amazing especially how you can brake in a turn without losing traction and without having the bike standup and run wide

[@commanderroddi7742]

So, is the R6 really the class leading machine if you can't buy them anymore? I had both R6 & ZX6Rs. R66 is a great bike, but on the street, the Kawi is a better bike with its "cheater" engine. Love the new looks of it, and I actually went from a liter bike down to this 600cc machine!

[@aviator-kn8zq]

IMO the front is too bulky, has a big head for the body. Previous gen was class.

[@hartwinfritz]

Uhmm, do you have any idea when will Kawasaki put a TFT display on zx6r and zx10r? and with less weight and more power (hp and torque) ? And the new look of ZX-10R

[@dblackviper2k3]

Anywhere from 2022 to 2025

[@MyMednas]

The new ZX10R will be announced on November 23rd. It will have a TFT. Also a hideous front end a bit like an H2, so personally I'd take the old one anyway. The display on the ZX6R is excellent, it doesn't need a TFT.

[@GuamTippedOver]

good review -at 10:10 did you have your blinker on before you pointed to the car without a blinker? really, I didn't see it on the display? thx

[@KB-yj5xp]

Where I am the difference in insurance cost between this and a 1000cc super sport is all the reason you need to pick up this.

[@MyMednas]

200hp is too much for the street. I prefer to have a bike I can push with less chance of dying. The ZX6R is perfect for that. Plenty of power ok the road and lighter than a thou.

[@danny12threes6]

Oh damn I ride over in that area all the time in orange up thru santiago canyon

[@Jonathanmoguel]

i live in the socal area, i wish i can demo a zx6r , i have a z900rs and i like it but and ive been wanting to ride this bike! for so long
