Seems like they’re pushing off old the “old stock” of the last generation bikes onto the NA market because of less regulation and a wealthier market rather than try to rebuild all the ones they already made to the new spec. Hopefully we’ll get the updated bike for the 2026 model year

The Honda was 3/10 of a second faster but is asks a lot more of the rider (being in the correct gear) while the 636 because of the better midrange is easier to ride on track for most riders. The also said the Kawa suspension was a bit underdamped for track and that the Honda was a lot more precise on track.

I recently test rode a ZX-4RR and the new ZX-6R back to back. The ZX-4RR does have a blipper, so, naturally, I thought the ZX-6R would surely have a blipper as well... I took me all the way till the end of ride before I realized it hadn't... All the while, I was thinking: "man... this blipper sucks!" Another reminder to never buy an ex demo bike😂

[@brianzhu7119]

@jaffabaffa which one did you like better?

[@jaffabaffa]

@@brianzhu7119 I feel like the ZX-4RR has great potential to be an amazing bike, but is ultimately super restricted in stock form. In my personal opinion, the gearing is way to long, and the exhaust is stupid quite. The power was rather underwhelming for me, even for a 400. However, the ergonomics were surprisingly comfortable. Especially compared to the ZX-6R. The ZX-6R has plenty of power to have fun with, but felt very cramped to me. And I am not even a big dude (179 cm or 5'9"). Also, the lack of a blipper on the ZX-6R makes if feel outdated compared to the ZX-4RR. If I would have to put my own money down, I would choose either a ZX-4RR and upgrade it, or buy the previous generation ZX-6R.

[@Larry_Mott]

@@jaffabaffa Where do you live? The EU model ZX4 is supposed to be unrestricted AFAIK . I ride a lot with two friends of mine, one has a MT09 SP and the other a Z900 RS. I don't really feel left behind when doing normal riding. Obviously i'd be lef for dead in a drag race, but again just going tempo moderato on small twisty roads the ZX4 doesn't leave me wanting.

[@jaffabaffa]

@@Larry_Mott The EU version of the ZX-4R(R) might be less restricted, but it's still subjected to the EU's emissions and sound regulations (euro 5+). I think that you're either a skilled rider, or that your friends are a bit slow (or not trying to be fast at least). I have not ridden an MT-09 before, but I have ridden a Z900 RS. I can't imagine a ZX-4R being able to keep up with a Z900 RS in any sort of race - both drag and twisties. A good way to gauge the degree to which a bike is restricted, is to compare the stock dyno numbers to one that as been fully "unlocked" with a full exhaust system and an ECU flash. A bone stock ZX-4R makes around 58.5 hp at the rear wheel. When properly unrestricted, it makes around 76 hp at the rear wheel.

[@Larry_Mott]

@@jaffabaffa 58,5 has to be a US model. Vcyclenut (his dyno seems to be somewhat conservative) claims 55,36 at the rear wheel.. After derestricting he got 68,53 which should correspond well to the EU version.

I kind of knew ahead of time that the Kwak would win by a nose. I don't see the lack of a blipper holding it back either, in fact I think it makes for a much more engaging riding experience. I would go as far as saying you could do without the upshifter on it as well, for the exact same reason. The Honda is a stunning bike too, definitely showing its racing pedigree here and it sounds sublime when it gets on the power. It would be the Kwak for me all day long, though my poor back would only let me enjoy it an hour at a time 👍

Coming from yamahas that are notorious for bad fuel mapping though, but still haha.

Good b2b review guys! It really comes down to personal preference. I test rode both on the same day and actually found the Honda to be more refined. The Kawasaki is raw, which was great though. It was a tough decision, but the bi-directional shifter on the Honda, plus the dealer offered me a cracking deal against my RS660, swung it. Why didn’t Kawasaki put a shifter/blipper on it??? Moving away from 1000cc sports bikes (that I have always had) to a middleweight I find these are soooo much better on the road. Great fun! You can’t really lose whichever one you go for.

[@anthonyramsay1108]

I have the Honda and have just gave it a good break in around a track. You have to keep yourself pushed back in the seat to keep the bike properly balanced for corners otherwise it feels your sat too close to the front up against the tank. My899 just lets you hug the tank and you’re already perfectly centred for flinging a knee out. I hated the Honda when I first took it home and was massively disappointed but now after 1500 miles and 3 months of riding I can say it’s a weapon of a 600. The track day it performed incredibly and I only had the stock Dunlop roadsport 2 sports/touring tyres on.

[@gregdi8730]

Love the video and format, awesome stuff guys. Had an 07 Zx6r as my first bike a decade ago and it was amazing. It was built like a tank, I assume it’s somewhere out there still running strong.

It seems the answer is: Yes. Both are good bikes that like to be spanked. These are basically aesthetic, subjective preferences we are presented with, not material differences. The Honda has a quickshifter that blips on downshifts, whereas the Kawa has slighly better brakes.

[@TheOriginalCoda]

I am wondering how quick and easy it is to do basic roadtrack conversions. I.e. how long on each bike does it take to remove indicators, mirrors, number plate holder thingy. On my Ducati 748 it takes about 10-15 minutes, but on some bikes I owned it was a right pain in the arse ('14 Fireblade for example).

[@greenmarine5]

I'll give up being a bit slower and having an almost perfect bike over the Kawi any day. My 05 600RR has 76k miles on it, never even needed a valve adjustment. I change brake pads tires, oil and changed the spark plugs once and flushed the Radiator once. Still rides like I purchased it last week

Great review gents. Two very good looking bikes. I would personally choose the Honda as it is the complete package with the electronics and under-seat exhaust.👌 I had a new GSXR 600 SRAD many years ago and absolutely loved it. These two bikes are the polished refined versions of what we had in the 00’s. They look like Superbikes and I think they have the perfect amount of power to learn your craft on. Nice and relaxed under 6k revs and loads of excitement beyond. Plenty fast enough for the road with handling to match. They both look amazing! 😍 I’ll stick with the Street Triple though because I’m old! 😂

[@michaelbaker6723]

Saw the honda review and noticed the new kawasaki in the back ground. And this is why. 👍

[@laurenbro44]

Ofc I'm biased because I ride the new 600RR but I really respect the ZX-6R. I don't mind the slightly lower power of the 600RR but the electronics really do it for me. It allows you to control so many aspects of the bike as well as it being super stable to ride on the road. At 6'5", I'm not really the target demographic for these bikes but it's been a blast and I didn't regret it yet by one bit. I could've gotten a Kawa but the price for what you're getting is not really worth it for me, compared to the Honda

[@tonychettleburgh8953]

Kawasaki for me all day over a Honda. The lack of an auto blipper on the kawi is hardly a deal breaker and for me I would find it more engaging to ride the bike without the automation of all the electronic gadgets. I have at present a GSX S1000GT and a 2003 ZX9R and am actually starting to turn off the QS and TC on the Suzuki because for me it takes away the 'riding' of the bike . How do the two of them compare when it comes to build quality, fit and finish ?

[@nickrider5220]

Love the Chopsy and Gregorio tests, great info and fun 👍🏻 I'm pretty sure the zx6r had it's gearing lowered, tests of it's top speed have dropped, but it accelerates slightly quicker, sounds like a gearing change. The Honda has a wonderful induction and engine noise !

Bit late to catch this KZbin but been following Honda and Kawasaki decision to bring back he 4 cly screamer supersports bikes. Great decision I have always loved 600 cc supersports. My biking pals didn’t agree. No substitute for “ cubes”. Need to be in the right gear for every corner, at least 9k rpm but boy what a top end. Could keep up with litre bikes on a run no problem. Rarely ever passed them but they couldn’t get away. The new ZX6 is much lower geared than the CBR6 which makes it faster in most situations that you don’t need top speed. The Honda looks like excellent build quality. Difficult decision I would go for the ZX6 for more midrange and I do prefer throttle cables but that’s just me.

Best review ever great work chopsy 👍 Kawasaki all the way 👏 big shout out from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 👍 🙌 😀

[@jonthecowboy]

I’m on my first bike the ninja 500 se and loving it. One of these two will be my second bike but we don’t have the cbr in the states yet. Both look and sound great

[@stevietrucker4631]

2 fantastic bikes I'd be happy with either of them.

[@snowboardinpassout]

What about the Aprilia RS 660? Brill video, love the banter.

[@Black_Drako]

Aprilia is not as SuperSport as these two. And the power on the Aprilia is less.

Before I settle in with my tea. I've been looking forward to this video. And the right conclusion was reached (IMO). Thanks chaps

[@pistolpete6321]

Great comparison video!

[@kylejf9059]

£10,500 for two immense looking super sports. Absolute bargains 👌🏻

[@MrJKDRob]

Been waiting for this!

[@MrJKDRob]

Great review lads. Kawasaki for me just pipped it but I wish they would added a blipper too. Hopefully on the next bike!

[@Tenfx72]

Been out testing the 636 today. Roll on 1st September.

[@yorisalter3733]

Great vid, and 2 great bikes keeping the supersport class alive. Praying for a new gixer 750 in a range of stlyes (new supersport, 80/90's retro comfy faired and naked bike)

[@Jay-le5oz]

Love you buddy🎉

[@MrWinterblade]

Thanks for the video! One question - how tall and how much do you weigh guys? Being a quite big guy myself I don't want to necessarily choose a big bike because I like these machines

[@TheOriginalCoda]

One small thing. In the UK (at least at the moment), there is a road-tax difference between a bike that is under 600cc (CBR) and over 600 (Kawasaki). It's not a huge amount, but if you are tax averse and believe taxation is theft, especially considering the state of the UK roads, it may be important to you.

[@R-Tap]

These last few vid's have made me want to make the leap to my 1st sport bike. 🤔 The red one, because you got to rinse it. *As a 2nd bike.

[@vasilibarycheuski3989]

Thank you for the video, was waiting for it. Still think Honda is a better bike for the money. If I’m not wrong Kawasaki does not have a steering damper as standard, which is another £800. +First registration of £200 from Kawasaki. And Honda put complimentary trackers in their bikes for free.

[@ragerider6283]

Great vid. I'm now questioning if I want one lol. I also like the ZX4RR as you can have ZX6RR-esque thrills thrashing the absolute hell out of it at legal speeds.

[@LambChopRides]

Couldn't agree more!

[@xAnimeID]

Gutted they didn't give the 6R the blipper, when the 4R does.

[@dannyperfect9270]

Good to meet you at the GP Chopsy...what a gent!

[@LambChopRides]

Hi Danny! Thanks buddy 👍

[@loztagain8278]

Anniversary edition zx6r looks ace, imo, as well

[@kungsiongbillykho4151]

Kawasaki for me,Ninja Fans🎉

[@michaelrussom9347]

Both nice bike, i would have the Kawi, in Australia the Honda retails for $29,200 and the Kawi $18,000, big difference in price.

[@andrewhedges5470]

Great vid guys both bikes are awesome love a 600 screamer. Think you two need to both ride both bikes before you do comparison vid as you always seem to choose the bike you've had for a few weeks
