Hi
Am thinking of moving to a Kawasaki ZX6R next year when I get my full. Would appreciate some thoughts or reviews from owners. For the money it seems a hell of a bike. Hopefully there's a ninja sticker-delete option.

I seem to be leaning towards the kawasaki over a triumph, but a seat test will sell on the day.
Cheers

After quite a bit of researching bikes in my price bracket (6 - 7k) I decided on the 05 ZX6R.
First one with a slipper clutch, got more horses than most others in the 600 range and looks fucking awesome.
Really enjoying it, no regrets at all.
I hear the 07 CBR's are really nice too if you're happy to stretch the budget a bit further.

Here's the thread I made when looking to purchase, so depending on what your budget is you might find some of the info in there helpful.

Cool, thanks for that. Had fun on youtubelast night. Some crazy Malaysian topping his bike out... The ZX6R seems more than enough bike for me!

Probably too much. Don't bin it round the basin.

Sweet bikes, always preferred the look of the ones around that year with the undertail exhaust as opposed to the new ones with the big fuckoff ugly side mounted ones. lol.

Ha ha, what a great memory you have! Not so much for me...

By the way, you come across as quite negative with your posts. Just saying....
