    Looking at a 2005 Kwak 636

    I'm off tomorrow to test ride a 2005 Kwak 636. Any ideas on what to look out for, known problems etc?

    Cheers

    Mike

    Getting your knackers caught between the end of the seat and the tank under braking. Extraction is worse than insertion too.

    That's it.

    They are a gorgeous bike, in every way that I can think off, provided you are perfectly comfortable on a race rep.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    That's nothing an oily rag to fill the space can't fix

    Is it on Tardme me, my old one was for sale on there again( about 10 months later) as the bloke that bought it treated more of an ornament than a bike.If it is my one I can tell ya all about it.

    Had mine for a year now, only one thing that lets all these undertail bikes down and thats no boot.

    They are a fantastic machine. Strong and handle well.

    Good luck.

    It's not an undertail, so I guess it's a 2004 overspill?

    2004 is the nicest IMO. Aggressive looks. Has to be orange though. Orange Kawasakis are faster.

    'bout fricken time Mike!! Now that you're a Hutt slut you'll be getting out to the takas a fair bit...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them
