    Yep! Same front fender too...same frame...same swing arm etc etc

    Does look good though, but then I'm biased. But is it a parts bin special?

    Exchange rate = about $10,000.....hmmmm....gaurantee it'll be more than that.

    I wonder if we'll see a ZZR900 in a year or two?

    No. Are you implying that a banana works like a bell?

    I know, which is 599cc, but the R is 636cc, which is more power.. que Tim from Tool Time.. The R and RR is the same bike, apart from the R has 37cc extra bored out, everything else is the same. The only reason the RR is the race bike is cos you can't race a bike in the 600s if it's over 600cc.. But there's nothing to say what you can't do with the road going version..

    Hello All,

    I've got the forementioned ZZR600, its exactly the same as a 01 ZX6, was gonna trade for a newer 600. After a few test rides, I changed my mind, all too small, head down arse up. Its a USA import and a bit of a novelty.

    No you are very wrong!!,the RR model is quite different,engine is handbuilt,different cams,ignition box,adjustable fuel injection,comes with cd
    even down to the frame has a welded lug for steering damper,thats why if you were to pay retail for an RR model,they are over $20000.oo
