We always hear about the Yamaha R6 but not so much about the Kawasaki ZX6R / 636... In this video, I give you my week-long review of this bike because at this point, I've done close to 500 miles on the bike and I can tell you about its power, handling, Yoshimura Alpha-T exhaust sound and comfort. Watch till the end! Enjoy 😉

ZX6R you get more for your money. 636cc, quick shifter up, a little better street comfort, great brakes, Kawasaki sound. All for thousands less. If you find one with < 4000 miles for around 7-8k its a steal

@PetroHead - Just a small correction - the 2019 ZX-6R has 3 levels of Traction Control (KTRC), not 7 or 8. I have the KRT-ABS edition 2019 and love it to bits! All in all, a fantastic review chief!

Underrated? I don't think so. Youngmachine Japan picked the ZX6R as the best in it's class, competing against R6 & CBR600R, which are both great bikes. ZX6R is the cheapest to buy and to own/maintain and it also won the best ergonomics for daily riding, considering most riders are short.

A friendly criticism: the nonstop hand gesturing during the video is a detraction. Let your words stand alone. You are not the only one doing this. It seems to be a thing. As the gloves go on, the gesturing begins. I promise I say this without any animosity. Your review is comprehensive.

bought a 2007 zx6r at the beginning of the summer and ive been loving it, one thing i dont like is that it seems to require giant hex keys to access alot of things the yammies are just easier to work on . but ive been commuting to work and going on rides and next month is my first track day, its been amazing, ive had a few issues but nothing i couldnt fix myself and i dont know much about fixing bikes. We'll see how it does at the track wish me luck im a little nervous.

I rode a 21 krt edition at a Kawasaki demo earlier this year. Before that I had my first ever ride on a sport bike at a Yamaha demo with the r7. Though I'm not built for a super sport (5'10 and 330 pounds) I fuckin loved the zx6r. It was so much god damn fun!! The power (even with my fat ass on it) was incredible!! Hopefully one day, before im to old to enjoy it, I'll be able to afford one of these sexy bitches!!

It actually takes more skill to get everything out of a 600 than to ride a liter bike on the street... any supersport/superbike is for advanced riders, but beginnners can certainnly ride them/learn on them.

If you are mature and have basic knowledge of throttle/clutch (i get not all people know how to drive anything with a clutch) there is no reason you cant safely start on a 600. If you doubt yourself or think a 600 might be too much for you then dont do it.

I wouldn't recommend it. Half of the reason the insurance premiums are so high on the 600 class if because newbies buy them and squid up the streets. 600 is a lot of bike for someone new, with the perfect amount of power IMO for intermediate-experienced riders. Granted, my first street bike was a 600, but I'd ridden dirt for 15 years prior.
