What petron should I use for my 03 954rr with 40k miles? Petron? First I've heard of it. Thank you sir.

[@edwardandrade4390]

So how much do you recommend in lowering the bike. Yeah I'm 5 food 2 and I have the same bike here

[@-DC-]

A 600 in the nines is a testament to your ability and nobody can dispute that, amazing !

[@BrockDavidson]

Thank you. We try to back up all of our combinations with legitimate performance numbers. The 1/4 mile is a great tool and so is official LSR racing.

[@jaimedevon6213]

Brock Davidson Did you do any sprocket changing combined with the O ring removal? I’m trying to get my 08 r6 in the nines, it has 126whp, 520 conversion, 1 down 3 up, lowering strap in the front, k&n full exhaust with a flash and tune, GP shifted bike, I run engine ice, aftermarket clutch bearing and plates, new springs, bikes is stock wheelbase. Im also 130 pounds and the mirrors are removed. I’d love some advice or feedback

[@BrockDavidson]

Yes. Gearing is noted in long description.

[@BodyRocker9]

I didn’t even think it was possible for a 600, I guess I was wrong.

[@thereal_FASTA]

@@jaimedevon6213 check the channel dude.

[@TeamMooreMafia]

I can't wait to get mine finished!

[@rush6617]

MOORE MAFIA!!!!! love ur vids

[@dylanspencer6774]

Congrats on the Gadson race. I’m about have my ECU sent into you guys, can’t wait to get it back

[@jcmartinez7527]

I appreciate the transparency! Telling us what all you did and why. One reason why I love your company

[@BrockDavidson]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@bianco978]

I had no idea this was possible... love my ZX6R even more

[@ninjabudd]

Ultimate cheat codes, thank you MR.Brock

[@steven-vn9ui]

The lack of friction in the rear is amazing.

[@JDelta87]

This makes me reminisce to the days with my ZX-6r. Truly a sight behold seeing a 600 run in the 9s.

[@tr3all3n]

The video of Ryan Schnitz on the ZX6r running 9s at Budds Creek back in the day comes to mind lol. Watched that video 327 times lol.

[@86250r]

Why not 636 times?

[@JK-wz7uj]

Brock's 1/4 Mile Target: 9secs Me on my newly acquired zx: Please be still on the seat.

[@ZedChop]

I love this Bike! I have a 2008 and Can't keep the front end down! Just Got me a Racing strap from brocks performance! Already I can tell the difference in launching it! im shooting for 10's for now but maybe one day ill get down on the 9's Thanks Brock LOVE all your Videos and advice!

[@RickyJr46]

That's an impeccably setup 600, Brock.

[@m.mitchell5220]

I would love to see you do a ZX-9 next,Brock!!!!!

[@redactedrider7606]

Wow... And here i thought i wouldn't see one in the 9s... I would say my zx6r is decently quick. Motor stock, but full intake, exhaust, changed gearing, tune, etc. Im a little 125lbs jockey. Ive had a few guys compliment me on how quick she is. My other friends with 600s cant keep up with mine. What im hearing is new wheel bearings, a strap, new clutch (which i need anyway) and get better at launching. Shit i might try to get into the 9s next year... Gonna have to ask for some more hours at work though lol

[@BrockDavidson]

@wrightracing - @WRIGHTRACING if you watch the pass closely, it was trying to wash out the front end-this si why it took so long for him to get his foot on the peg. And he also missed a gear up top. He said he would go 70's all day with a little practice.

[@cp4512]

I love that model ZX6R. Great bike even stock.

[@Yesitsqk]

Love what you and Chris Moore have done to some 636 bikes....I have a ‘13 and love it Might have to hit you up for an exhaust some day in the future for my bike 🤙🏻

[@BrockDavidson]

Very nice!

[@jeffh278]

I remember Super Streetbike Magazine hitting 9s on a 636 back in the day. Impressive as hell

[@richardspivey1562]

What a great video. As always, you explain more than anyone else on KZbin. You are the man!!! Keep uploading videos just like always and I'll, alongside others, will continue to watch them! TY

[@georgecostanza2695]

Oh the crazy things you hear when you deal with Brock's Performance; who else describes a 9 second bike as "low powered"🤣 If you want a fast bike: Brock is BOSS... and you can take that to the bank👍👍 Ps: the strap kit is essential equipment if you're serious about launching hard and going fast... I'll vouch for it.

[@czierwo]

It's after watching the barbecue clip long time ago with Brock when I started spinning my rear wheel to see how much resistance there is. Rear wheel takes surprising effort to turn if there's ton of chain lube and road grime tacked onto it. Now, very religiously, the day before taking my 636 to the circuit, I spend good bit of time painstakingly cleaning the chain, and use Teflon based lube, which feels like the having lowest resistance on the o-rings. Doesn't last, but hey, my toothbrush is always handy...

[@breakwood8531]

That exhaust sounds amazing. Love your work Brock. Thanks for being open so we can learn from ya. Appreciate it big time.

[@BrockDavidson]

Thanks!

[@cxbra]

I like the power switch for the two different fuel modes. Slick.

[@ukdnbmarsh]

ZX14R 1/4 mile times, damn son.

[@fstmonte2002]

Sounds and looks beautiful. Good work.

[@jeffhdpd782]

NO FREKN WAY BROCK!!!!!! DANG IT I am gonna have to save it for later.

[@elliotcho4823]

Hey, Brock! It's always great to see old friends pop up on my various feeds! BTW, I can remember when you you raced a 600 in the AMA-ProStar series... LOL!

[@BrockDavidson]

Hey Elliot! Hope you are well my friend. Yes - I was much faster (and smaller, lol) back then.

[@averilledawson6013]

Always great to watch your channel. Personable, friendly, humble and concise, no BS, keep up the good work. Australia.

[@BrockDavidson]

Much appreciated

[@kayhoww]

Another awesome peek into the life of performance motorbikes. Thank you Brock 🙏

[@Popsm0ke]

That's real nice set up for a zx6. My zx14 has zx10 wheels and has custom bearings and my back wheel rolls like that, it surprised me. And it has an oring chain . I do lube it with wd40 before every ride.

[@dtbrown1978]

Nice, I'm excited to see gain. BTW I tested a same day before and right after of a new K&n filter vs a new sprint and picked up almost 3mph in the 1/4 and almost 2 in the 1/8th. Crazy how good that filter flows bjust unfortunate they are not well know in the states. One of the best $ values for power besides a tune on a motorcycle IMO.

[@raynic1173]

@Carson Jennings Really, welcome to outside world Jeff.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

And then dust your engine out 2 yrs down the road. Sooner if you're a clean freak and cleaning it every week.

[@dillonwebber5983]

Bad ass!! Really wish there was more of a market to make y’all produce the products needed. Still very killer man. Thanks for the knowledge and experience 💪

[@BrockDavidson]

Thanks! We do accept product requests, btw: blog.brocksperformance.com/product-request/

[@squidmissile-ik7tr]

It doesn't matter if you have a scooter if it has Brocks exhaust it will sound great.

[@2-TwistedRacing]

Went 10.63 @ 132.31 on a stock 2012 cbr600rr with just a TBR slip on no tune nothing else changed. Bought a 2011 ZX6r to build into a track bike also looking for 9.90's or better on engine.

[@BrockDavidson]

Nice work on the cbr. ZX6R can go deep into the 9s with the right parts and rider.

[@rickshawphilippines]

I learn more and more here every time. Strap kit. Way cool!

[@kiddcisco]

Fast fast 600! Love it

[@MoMadNU]

I learn so much from your videos. Thank You

[@philiec137]

Awesome build looks like a blast to ride

[@BrockDavidson]

It is!

[@brianvath9186]

Nice! Hey man, aside from the zx6r, great job losing some weight brother, looking great! 🤙

[@636rider4]

Man that sick and yes my first track day after getting my 03 zx6r I was blowing lower fairings off my buddys 08 gsxr 750 that was stretched big sprocket quick shifter and full bricks exhaust my bike stock engine k&n high flow air filter lowered about 1 3/4 in front can’t remember the rear and Diablo Rosso 3 a lot of adjustments to my clutch Ran ethanol free gas and added 5 teeth to the rear tan 10.9s all night and that was me being scary with that new sprocket I had a few power wheelies in first and second gear until finding the sweet spot in my rev

[@whatsstefon]

I had a 1998 ZX6R. Stock with my fat arse on it, I pulled 11.98. No quick shifter. 100kg of my Royal Lardness. Carburettors. Geez it was fun.

[@barryhogenkamp]

Nice vd brock, like your new intro🔥😉✌thx for the fast delivery to germany 👌the block off plates for my 1000 gixxer k7 are amazing, great finish and perfomance 👍proud to have your decals on my bike !! Peace and lots off health you fast guys overthere in the u.s.a 😉✌p.s failed to order a banner from your shop

[@replynotificationsdisabled]

Seen this on stock 636 back around 2004/5. Dude could ride

[@bobkornbrust7138]

Cool video! I hardly ever drag race with my 2011 zx6.but with yoshi full exhaust a BBM filter and power commander.46 rear sprocket and one down in the front,I clocked a 10 flat.and that was on power one tires.the bike is making 118 hp at the wheel.oh and a stock clutch.but these bikes really shine on the track ,they corner so well! And have nice brakes stock.

[@SuperKila25]

this bike is insane i love it

[@kevinwilliamson2236]

Not a bad bike. Love my zx10r it's wicked fast 👌

[@colinpirie8403]

Awesome video learned 3 to 4 new things had a 2012 ZX6R ❤️

[@matthewdoyle4418]

I use to race that same air strip in DeLand fl I had a zx7r nice bike

[@fokuz02]

I had a 09 Monster Edition ZX6R and that thing was indeed a monster. I had my share of Busa kills on that thing for sure. Maybe I will get another one...

[@wheeliefast3602]

Essentially it's still fairly stock, in 2006 I drag raced my k6 gsxr600 against and 06 r1 and ran a 10.2 it was stock chassis and everything all we'd done was put a leo vince exhaust, k&n air filter and played with the fuelling with a yoshi box. It made 115rwhp and the guy thought it was a 1000, the 600s are great because they don't want to wheelie as much as a litre.

[@47-TH4TS-R4VN]

Wow props on this build.

[@ericb.5815]

Great info!! Definitely taking my double bubble windscreen off and changing my sprocket back from a 520 conversion.

[@Alps6408]

Nice one Brock!

[@roadtoad1216]

Another impressive Brocks bike build , backed up with killer 1/4 times by Mr. Teasley . That rear wheel rotation is amazing , how would one of the readily available off the shelf non o ring race chains compare to a o ring removed chain ? Always enjoy these very informative Brocks youtube vids , and just want to say how much I love my full Brocks packaged CT Meg piped , mapped and BST shod Busa and ZX14R streeters .

[@aaronkent76]

Love your content...thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos.

[@BrockDavidson]

I appreciate that!

[@ericabercrombie6780]

I remember when Ricky went 9.93 in a Cycle World test back in 2005 on a "stock" Yamaha R6

[@gr8whitehernandez460]

Awesome little demo, @Brock Davidson can we get one of these videos for a Gsx-R750 for the 750 FanBoys😁😁😁😁

[@juliodc1231]

Good suspension set up, and a good rider can do alot

[@BrockDavidson]

You got that right!

[@chrismoody1342]

Now we’re talking about my bike; a 07’ ZX6R. Yeah it’s true get out of the hole with a good launch and most bikes will have trouble catching up; especially in a 1/8th. I happen to be pretty good on the clutch, but I no way am I going to run a 9.81 @ 139. I’m still completely stock; no flash, no lowering, no sprockets, no titanium exhaust. The only thing I got going for me is I’m 170 lbs.

[@raynic1173]

Paul Giamatti's alter race ego?

[@Gladiatorguy1998]

Impressive.

[@Benjay1975]

fantastic video Brock!

[@thenotoriousnova1102]

Im like 5’6 170 i took my 11’ zx6r to the strip for the first time and never actually tried to hard launch the bike before but i managed a 12.0 before the track got cold and i started to spin in 2nd gear at like 40mph i said f that im done 😂...My mph is 123 with a absolute god awful launch’s I think with some less gas in the tank a freshly lubed chain a good launch and no mis shifts i cant hit mid 11s not sure tho thats the goal.....When i hit 12.0 i had a bad launch like almost 3 sec 60ft and i missed 4th to 5th

[@thenotoriousnova1102]

Crucify me later I got the bike when i was 19 i turned 20 a couple months ago so im still new to riding im gonna get a new smoother chain it has the OEM chain but the bike only had like 3900 miles when i got it and its got like 4900 now about 9 months later . . . Pls give me any tips on how to launch better I leave at like 8k rpm i think i dont really look i just go off sound and fesl

[@BrockDavidson]

check this out: blog.brocksperformance.com/faq/what-launch-technique-does-brock-teach-to-rookie-drag-racers/

[@thenotoriousnova1102]

Brock Davidson i feel like i need to lean forward more too....i was experimenting and it was way more comfortable to keep my legs down to help balance when i was like laying on the gas tank

[@thenotoriousnova1102]

Brock Davidson how i was doing it before my legs would cramp up 😂

[@joerobles5129]

Ran a 6.02 at HMP with a 2004 zx6r

[@markurbancowboy]

Great work Brock! Awesome!

[@RickyJr46]

Jeremy reminds me of the great Pee Wee Gleason!

[@2k821]

10 sec kit for my guys on the street 😂

[@mysticsedec6432]

Acabo de comprar esa moto zx6r 2009, ahora me gusta más

[@damonm3]

Chain looks a bit too tight. Your rider makes that time from 0-80. Just unreal what he can do. I weighed 95 lbs when I got my first bike. Was an F4i. Sold it 3 weeks later for a 929. Now have a 191whp 1299s (100wtq) at 387 lbs with a a gallon in the tank. But I’m 180 lbs now. 5’11”. Wish I was around 110-120 lbs on the 1299. Would be just about perfect🍻. Wish they made a 1499... crazy fast 600👊. Good to see you love what you’re doing

[@BrockDavidson]

Chain was a bit tight. Glad you like the vid.

[@upnorthviking823]

I like the strap idea!!

[@legrangedylandlg]

Wow! I have a 2010 same model. I'm impressed

[@BrockDavidson]

Very nice!

[@antivht]

Can’t wait to see you do up a zh2 😎

[@tonytorres4984]

A love this man’s videos, I already watched this video about 6 times, this man should have hundreds of thousands of more subscribers and views. Best motorcycle channel in my opinion. Im getting a new 2020 zx6r, maybe a zx10r if i get a good deal on it, what do you think about the 2020 zx6r and zx10r?

[@BrockDavidson]

I appreciate that! Bike choice depends upon many factors. A ZX-10R is MUCH faster than a ZX-6R, so the rider must be able to maintain control with things happening very quickly. They are both good bikes, so toy can't go wrong with either...as long as they match your skill level.

[@antownemercer7552]

Man Brock your videos are Awesome. I am in a head spend on your Full Exhaust Penta Carbon Exhaust and the Full Austin Racing Exhaust for 2019-2020 zx10r i suppose to look at tomorrow.

[@BrockDavidson]

Remember, regardless of which @brocksperf exhaust you purchase... You receive our support, advice, mapping, set-ups etc...

[@raydolinger1980]

I ran a 11.2 quarter on my 2001 6r :) 9's is unreal

[@daveyt4802]

All about the launch. 60 ft. Abuse the clutch. 12.24 on my V-strom 650. I think I could run 11's.

[@mmtruthseeker5263]

Not too shabby, for a 4 Stroke. I prefer the smell of Blendzal over MR3. :)

[@the_orange_busa3202]

Nice Tech talk vid again!!

[@blainehouser4354]

Pure Talent!

[@Jmeez69]

Hey Brock. I hve a 2019 zx6r and i so badly want to fit it with a brocks pipe and a ecu flash! I hope you guys get more in stock soon. I wisu 600’s got more love! So fun!

[@BrockDavidson]

We are working on a Penta-Carbon for the 09-20's - and we currently offer our Alien Head full system: brocksperformance.com/alien-head-full-system-14-muffler-zx-6r-09-20/

[@udmbfckx2916]

That airstrip is on US-27 where it meets Krome Avenue, near the Dade and Broward County Line,. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opa-locka_West_Airport

[@michaeldonaldson9060]

nice run bro

[@yamakawirodebike5710]

Cool bike!!! I like how the "BROCKS" decal on the muffler matches the bike!! Stay safe!!

[@M3Vader]

Awesome stuff! I’d say regarding the kick stand, like you said if that’s what keep someone from achieving a top speed, lay off the double cheeseburger before you head to the track Lol

[@BrockDavidson]

Absolutely!

[@jackshaw3730]

Brock Davidson genuis

[@loginagapito]

great video, keep them coming :)

[@llerradish]

Amazing! I've only been to the strip once, but the best I could do is a 10.43 on a 2012 ZX14R. I would really like to get under 10 seconds. The track has been resurfaced, it in pretty bad shape when I went.

[@1993whitenoise]

It’s all about clutch and throttle control. Prep helps but it’s not the due all end all on 200 hp lol

[@peterreynolds4699]

Just wanted to say thank you for the bmw wheel bearings for my BST Wheels They are incredible. Stay coooooool 😎 Pete spain 👍🏻👍🏻 I would just like two get her flashed 🤔 I’ve done everything else. Every bolt titanium or pro bolt 🤔 one day 😔😔

[@Thelongesteconoline]

Hey Brock, love the channel! We all know you are at the cutting edge of new bike technology and performance, but have you ever thought of doing a slightly retro bike tune series for us used sport touring daily rider bike fans? (Maybe fjr1300 or concours 1400) Those sport bikes are cool at the drag strip, but I’ll never get one because my wrists can’t handle it. Sure would like to get a comfy bike that Brocks could flash someday.

[@BrockDavidson]

We will be starting on some daily-driver and longer distance riding projects very soon.

[@Jonathan-L]

Nine seconds for a six hundred? That's KWIKAZFUKI !!!

[@mikescott9213]

Sounds awesome

[@rgthomson100]

I have seen an R6 in the 10s here in the uk and totally stock everything and pump fuel, raced it in my car yeah

[@maxbartholic8090]

Good stuff brock thank you dude.

[@tonytorres4984]

Did you went to motorcycle tech school? Or just experience? Or how do you have all that knowledge and shop?

[@BrockDavidson]

I just did it. Mistakes were (and still are) made...but you learn the most from them.

[@georgecostanza2695]

I don't want to speak for the man, but he's being way too modest. That's why everybody loves him, but anyone who's into fast bikes and is just finding out about Brock's Performance, chances are, he's been racing for longer than you've been alive. Brock has been a force to be reckoned with in the drag bike game for a long, long time. So although it may be true when he said he just did it, he didn't "just" do it... a lot of time, effort, and money was invested. His achievements came by way of blood, sweat, and tears👍

[@themonk1327]

You should put all those parts in a kit and sell it. I have a '19 ZX-6R and I'd probably buy one. It's funny that you mention a Hayabusa because I have on '02 as well. One other thing that might put you even lower into the 9's that you should do is a quick shift, my '19 has it and it's awesome and so very fast to shift.

[@BrockDavidson]

Quick shifter on the 600 would be worth over 1 tenth in the 1/4 mile.

[@johnnazar180]

Can you guys do something like this to a 2018+ GSXR-750? Would love to see some numbers.

[@Black-Chip-Player-21]

Brock I'm a big fan of you and the channel. I've got a 2020 Yamaha MT-10. I know your time is valuable and you are busy with other projects. But would you be interested in doing some working on it to get the most power you can pull out of it. I'm in NC not to far from you. Thanks Steve

[@daveyt4802]

Like to see this one too. Just demo rode one. It's detuned compared to the R1.

[@williamrigler6994]

i like it!

[@randyp5089]

you aint tryna race my ninja 400 brah!

[@BerrieBadslof]

Very impressive

[@BOOSTEDH2]

😎

[@hank1556]

awesome to see something less common! did you guys torque the axle bolts/nuts to normal or did yall back off a little?

[@BrockDavidson]

I have never understood the loose axle theory? But I also make sure that all of our spacing is correct. We torque the axle to the factory spec, or higher, to make sure the axle doesn't move during the launch.
