Just notice alot of 6gc owners are also motorcycle riders. Maybe the few of you can answer my question. If you haven't notice; I recently got a kawasaki 636 zx6r. And I love the bike but everywhere I look i see people complaining about Kawasaki. I understand the whole "brand loyalty" and trash talk behind other manufactures. But what seems to be the dirt behind kawasaki?


To be honest i personally am a Yamaha fan; they make engines for Toyota. They also make musical instruments and a whole lot of other stuff. Where as kawasaki is simply a motorcycle manufacture. Why would a company so specialized had such a bad rap on the streets?

because people are stupid.

I have riden an 06 r6. brakes are amazing on the thing. all the power is made up top, but no balls down low. Not as comfortable to ride either. Shifting is wayyy to clunky and not smooth at all.

I love my kawi zx6rr. Not as torquey as the 636, but super fun and nimble. All I need for brakes, stainless lines and a nice set of pads.

My buddies 08 gsxr750 heavy and no where near as nimble as a 600. Well its probably because its a 600 frame with a 750 engine stuck in it.
