Awesome bike

Ive had a zx6r for over a year now and i wouldnt trade it for any other bike. Its relatively comfortable for a super-sport and its so fast and maneuvarable. More mid range torque than any other bike in its class makes it feel so much more powerful. It has also been a very reliable machine. The only ...thing ive done is change the oil, lube the chain, and put in gas. Ive ridden the other supersport bikes in the zx6r's class and it is by far the superior machine. Read Full Review

636'n

my 2006 zx6r was my first motorcycle. I bought it used from a dealership and instantly fell in love with it. It is quick, fuel efficient and attractive. The only thing that I wanted to change was that sissy stock muffler because I actually wanted to hear my bike, but if you like quiet than you defin...itely had a winner with that stock muffler.

My favorite by far!

Had this bike for a little over a year now.. Came from a GSX-R 600... Better in the turns, more comfortable seat, better throttle response, smoother ride, 10X sexier! lol

Love this bike more than anything! Made me a Kawasaki rider for life.. Used to love Suzuki, been on GSX-R 750 and 1K and I stil...l love it more.. Go get one... or two? .. you won't be disappointed. Read Full Review

zx6r ninja

i have had a power commander, kandn air filter and a yoshimura rs5 end can fitted and i am impressed. the acceleration and repsonse is so smooth now. it has been dynoed and it has gone from 103bhp up to 118bhp the highest gain on a bike my dyno centre tell me. i was suprised though how far off the f...uelling was before i had it set-up. i have also had the suspension set up which was probably the best £40 i have spent. i recommend this to anyone.
to all enjoy your ninja its a super bike!!!! Read Full Review

The perfect sportsbike

I own this bike now for the third year. Except for a small lowside on the racetrack I've never had any problems. Well, the battery runs empty in the winter if you don't unplug it.



Apart from this it's really reliable and astonishing fuel economic, even going at a faster pace. Oil choice is crucia...l, but it is with any high-revving bike.
Since I live in germany I often ride at speeds in excess of 100mph and found this bike to be pretty stable yet responsive. However it's not as comfortable (and stable) as a, say, ZZR-1200. I've had only very rare occasions where I wanted to have more power, or, to be more specific, more torque.
Therefore I've ridden a ZX-10R for a day for comparison and found it, well, a blast- but less challenging to ride.
The ZX-6R is a fun bike, compared to the ZX-10R. However, it's still hard work to ride it, unlike some smaller capacity or more ergonomic bikes. Riding it aggressively is difficult and exhausting.

I wouldn't recommend it as a commuter bike (it's not good for the engine anyway to run for short distances), I cannot recommend it as a plaything- it's too dangerous if you don't put a lot of time and effort in, as is every supersport bike. It'd be the perfect trackbike if it wasn't for the odd 636ccm which renders it useless for most competetions. Yet who wants to beat this baby on a track- get a cheap track bike for this, preferably a Honda ;)
If you're up to it and like it this way I absolutely recommend this bike. I will keep mine forever, although I'm looking for a fun bike right now, maybe a supermoto which is good for commuting as well. But it's simply a joy to ride, it's reliable, it's fuel economic (can't say this for other costs, tires e.g. cost a fortune), it can do anything you want it to do- I wouldn't want to ride anything else most of the times. I even use it for my holidays, travelling 600km+ a day on backroads is what this baby was built for. Well, a ZZR-1200 could do that too, but I like it a bit more sportive.

Two-up riding is possible but uncomfortable- for both. I guess that's the fate of the pillion seat. A bank is way more convenient. Read Full Review
