    What are you looking for in next bike?

    If you are bored with 600cc power then go for a 1000cc.
    I know two riders who bought a zx10 and both sold them in less than a month. These are experienced and fast riders, not poseurs. Seems they found the zx10 just too dangerous to enjoy. As they say power is nothing without control. Ridden a couple myself and can see the appeal of the power but how often can you use it. Great if you want to fight for control of the front wheel every time you exit a corner.
    I reckon I would be slower over the local hills if I owned zx10 than my zx6r.

    MD is on the nail, I cant imagine a ZX10r getting away on me on the road, on the track yeah sure on the back straight of puke but thats about it, the 636 aint no slouch 136 hp an a hell of a performer and alot more useable.
    I ride mine everyday and love it, two up though it sucks not comfy at all for both, but hey its a race bike what ya expect right.

    what a sack of shit Brett.

    magnum, putting it simply both the ZX10 and 636 will be easier to live with then your 99 ZX6. Make the upgrade you wont look back.

    Good luck keeping your licence- or I suspect you are taking the piss.
