Will it start Kawasaki ZX6R. READ DESCRIPTION

I drained the petrol, lifted it off the wheels and left her in my house. Topped up the petrol and new battery, 2 and a half years later. Did it start?

[@RandysRides]

So nice. Love the sound of 600 sport bikes. That purr is just ear porn.

[@davexs]

And the scream at rev's is orgasmic.....oh er

[@aallegritti1]

sweet sound😀

[@HippoDrones]

Good to see it fired up, hopefully the rear brakes are a simple fix

[@davexs]

I'll run her down to get MOT (see what is what) on Monday morning hopefully. Just need to clean up the rear calliper. Pretty exciting to take her out.....

[@norfolkandgoodmotovlogs]

Surprised it started so well knowing my kawasaki is a bugger to start after being left over winter but i did find putting in iridium spark plugs has helped quite a bit . Cheers

[@davexs]

I had a lot of work done on this bike before I left, plugs, carb overhaul and balance, bearings etc. New battery and she fired up, amazing. Need MOT now!!!

What a nice bike, would love to have a go on it 😁😁

[@davexs]

Old school mate and a screamer.....Maybe, I take out, if I can get insurance and road test cert.

[@cmcc3721]

Got a 2002 636 version thats not been started since 2008. Some day i'll find the time to kick some life back into it.

[@davexs]

Crickey that's a long time

[@dantemakris1295]

If you have any questions about it ask me on here i have that 636 too

[@cmcc3721]

@@dantemakris1295 cheers mate. 1 year later and I've still not done anything with it. I'm sure those 6 pot tokicos are lying in pieces in a box somewhere tho. Might have to dig them out and see if I can resurrect them haha

Sound good 🏁

[@banditnev]

Great stuff Dave, is it your farm and there must be some one running it while you're away.?

[@davexs]

Yes this my farm, the buildings are rented out, except my workshop. Another farmers sheep range over the land to keep it tidy. Simple...Cows went in 2019 when I converted all the buildings for other use.

[@BeansOnToast_YT]

What a nice bike Dave, you might almost call it a barn find 🤭 At 1:08 is just a trick of the light or are the wheels a different shade of green, I don't remember them like that?

[@davexs]

OH! Barn find, haha. I think the wheels are a little darker, not a perfect colour match. Maybe because the wheels are powder coated? I love the old 600 ZX6R, this is my 5th one over the years

[@BeansOnToast_YT]

@@davexs Oh thanks, wondered if it was my eyes. I've only ever had three Kwacks, and not the ZX6R, not problem with the Kwacks can't be easy parting with this one for you.

[@davexs]

@@BeansOnToast_YT I may decide to keep it, for my annual returns to blighty. If I'm lucky it will go up in value, if I keep her in good order. MOT Monday......

[@BeansOnToast_YT]

@@davexs I really don't know what will happen to ICE engines in the near future, I'm really hoping that some kind of hydrogen solution in the form of a conversion kit will be developed. I've seen a basic one being put on bikes in Pakistan.

[@davexs]

@@BeansOnToast_YT Looking at Thailand and the use of the ICE, any alternative power sources is long way away.....I do think Hydrogen is the way though. I guess it's down to money/economics, like most things. It is also dependant on the lobbying power of the energy giants. Long live ICE, long live my ZX6R...... You have a link for the Hydrogen bike in Pakistan?

[@davidhawkins120]

Nice looking bike Dave🍑

[@davexs]

Thanks it is a beauty....for sale?

[@1990-t1j]

This will be interesting: yeessss! And that's with a carb bike. Were you in Thailand all through Covid?

[@davexs]

Yeah been in Thailand since 2019 pre big C. Only come back UK for short time.....

[@1990-t1j]

@@davexs Same here. Got here 1 November, 2019. Going back home on 1 July for three months, all things being equal. See if I can start my big MT-01, all 1670cc of it.

[@davexs]

@@1990-t1j I came just before you in 2019....After 10 days here I've had enough and miss Thailand....555. MT01 1670cc?

[@1990-t1j]

I am looking forward to getting back but I live in the Algarve, so a summer down there has appeal. Is your woman still in Thailand?
