Kawasaki ZX-6R Ninja (2007 - 2008)

Our Review

Reviewed: by Visordown
Since its original launch I've had a difficult relationship with Kawasaki's ZX-6R. One half of me appreciated how good it really is, especially when it became the first middleweight sportsbike with radial brakes and upside down forks. Then I would get frustrated at being unable to compare it to the ...  Continue reading

Always had a soft spot for Kawasaki 600s. This feels like my old ZX6-J1 race bike. Quite roomy (important cos I'm 6'3" tall). Had it out on a couple of track days. All that needs changing is:

Just wandering why the bike is specified as having a 599cc engine, when the review refers it to having a 636cc engine

Two different bikes mate. There is a ZX6r ninja with a 599 engine and a ninja with a 636 engine. You can usually tell when looking at them as the 636 has 636 on the side. You do have a point though, why build a 599 and a 636?

Need to know

Pretty looking track focused 600 with a screaming 16,000rpm rev limit. Kawasaki gave its middleweight the brakes, slipper clutch, suspension and power to go and win races.
 
Too track focused for most. It has to be revved and worked hard to get the best out of the engine and chassis. The front end can get twitchy when pushed.
