Kawasaki ZX-6R (2007-2008)

Great Bike love it - Am new to road bikes after being a MotoX'r for yrs. Love the feel and it sounds amazing. Great corner speeds and get it above 9K on the Revs and its a real Dream - SUPERB!!!!!!

had it about 5 weeks after replacing my er6. Bike is bonkers. The thrill as the revs go above 10k is amazing. The harder it revs the better it sounds and just keeps on pulling. Can't wipe grin off my face. However the brakes are so strong that they could wipe the grin all over the screen if you don't hold on!!! Magic machine and looking forward to trip to watch WSB in Germany next month

I bought mine in 2009, it was brand new still in the box. A dealer had a special allocation of surplus 07 and 08 models. Compared to my old bike an 01 ZX-6R it was giant leap in handling and engine performance. My only problem is the short wind screen which blocks my view of the tach (I am 6ft.) Plan to get a bubble screen as was suggested by other riders on MCN. I have almost 2000 miles on it with no problems. Fun to ride in the twisty roads near Seattle can keep up with liter bikes easily because of agility and corner speed. Some small vibration right at 6000 rpm but it's a nit.

Got this bike on a fantastic deal a couple of weeks ago. So far i think its amazing. Unfortunatley im still runnning it in so i haven't pushed the bike atall. With comfort on the bike i think its not bad. When i picked it up i spent 4 hours on the bike pretty much non stop, and it was only the last 30mins that my arse started to hurt. With weight on your wrists, its not as bad as i thought it would be, but if you buy a supersport bike then what do you expect. Overall i can't fault the bike. It's my first bike ever, so if your a newbie like me it's easy to handle. Looking forward to more sunny days this year :-) Could do with a fuel indicator but i will get used to it.

This bike is the first four stroke I have only done 1300 or so miles since I got it in the summer. The bike didn't seem like a massive step-up at first, but when I started to hold each gear longer and harder it felt like a rocket and sounded amazing. For me the handling and brakes feel brilliant, and why don't all bikes have gear indicators? it's of massive use especially to a relative novice like myself. I have had no mechanical problems with mine or any problems with the general build quality/finish of the bike. The main problem I have with the bike (as did it's previous owner) is the comfort of it. When I was told how painful it was to ride I kind of thought it can't be that bad as I never had any problems on my Aprilia RS250 which isn't exactly luxurious. The Ninja however is agony on my wrists after more than a hour or so, especially in traffic and I've come close to pulling over a few times due to this. I'm only 5'10" so not exactly massive and it's not like the bike feels small - it's just wrong! After riding other sports bikes more recently I'll be getting rid of this when the weather brightens up and I'll most likely be getting a Mille. Shame.

This is a great bike, I can't fault it but I just don't feel right when I'm on it. I suppose it's becase I've only ridden Yams for the past 10 years. I think I'll just have to give it a bit longer as I've only had it since August. Will let everyone know how I get on in the months to come and update the review.

I've only got good things to say. Just creeping over the 3k mark and loved every minute of it. Throwing it into coners is a delight and inspires confidence. Smooth power delivery, although a power commander is going to be necessary before the end of the year.

Just done 2000 miles on it. Great fun although the front ends a little to stiff for our battered UK roads. Also there seems to be an engine fault, mines just dropped a valve and i'm told its a known problem with the 07 model.

Can't knock it,added a power commander to mine and a few little tweeks.

Ive test rode a cbr600rr 07. Also an excellent bike, but in comparison, the zx6r sounds better and feels more fun to ride. Had the fairing panels off. Fit and finish is above my expectations. Instruments very easy to ready. Cant say much more as Ive only did 200 miles on it. Looks alone, nicest 600 you can get. Blue doesnt look so hot in pics of it for some reason. In real life its a show stopper
