- We always hear about the Yamaha R6 but not so much about the Kawasaki ZX6R / 636... In this video, I give you my week-long review of this bike because at this point, I've done close to 500 miles on the bike and I can tell you about its power, handling, Yoshimura Alpha-T exhaust sound and comfort. Watch till the end! Enjoy 😉

@PetroHead - Just a small correction - the 2019 ZX-6R has 3 levels of Traction Control (KTRC), not 7 or 8. I have the KRT-ABS edition 2019 and love it to bits! All in all, a fantastic review chief!
I love my ZX-6R. Great for the streets and plenty power.
I agree.. you can lend it to me anytime you like 😁
I have same bike except the green krt edition and just Love it...great vids bro...if ever in nj come thru and we ride
A friendly criticism: the nonstop hand gesturing during the video is a detraction. Let your words stand alone. You are not the only one doing this. It seems to be a thing. As the gloves go on, the gesturing begins.
I promise I say this without any animosity. Your review is comprehensive.
I love my 2019 zx6r
Underrated? I don't think so. Youngmachine Japan picked the ZX6R as the best in it's class, competing against R6 & CBR600R, which are both great bikes. ZX6R is the cheapest to buy and to own/maintain and it also won the best ergonomics for daily riding, considering most riders are short.
is it possible to see a build videos with complete step by step process from before and after, i really enjoy watching a build.
Miss my 2006 ninja 636. Dynod 128hp at wheels.
Fun to ride.
Shout out to UTC mall! My girlfriend drags me there a lot
SD represent! 🤘
bought a 2007 zx6r at the beginning of the summer and ive been loving it, one thing i dont like is that it seems to require giant hex keys to access alot of things the yammies are just easier to work on . but ive been commuting to work and going on rides and next month is my first track day, its been amazing, ive had a few issues but nothing i couldnt fix myself and i dont know much about fixing bikes. We'll see how it does at the track wish me luck im a little nervous.
Check out some of my track videos... have fun be safe.
Yeah generally never feel that weight unless you stall it and it immediately drops lol
Great color! I like the 636 but the front is a bit too much Ninja 400 but that is just my personal opinion... after all it’s a great bike for a great price 🤘
Couldn't agree more! The ram air intake is about the only real difference. If I could count the number of times I get asked how my "400" feels.... :|
Great Content!
Thank you!
I rode a 21 krt edition at a Kawasaki demo earlier this year. Before that I had my first ever ride on a sport bike at a Yamaha demo with the r7. Though I'm not built for a super sport (5'10 and 330 pounds) I fuckin loved the zx6r. It was so much god damn fun!! The power (even with my fat ass on it) was incredible!! Hopefully one day, before im to old to enjoy it, I'll be able to afford one of these sexy bitches!!
It actually takes more skill to get everything out of a 600 than to ride a liter bike on the street... any supersport/superbike is for advanced riders, but beginnners can certainnly ride them/learn on them.
Consider trying the Suzuki GSXR-750. Best of all worlds!
They discontinued these in Europe 😭
@@andyknape8040 :(
@@andyknape8040 prob due to emissions... EU is killing the hobby for everyone.
PetroHead yeah it’s that! Euro 4/5 regulations caused loads of bike manufacturers to drop lines. Annoying as hell.
I had a 2015 30th anniversary edition. Loved it.
Same, fully modded. Then it got stolen. Man do I fucking hate living in Socal. I loved that bike so fucking much. Still salty about it 2 years later. I got a 2019 zx6r after which got stolen too but didn't care as much.
@@TOGTFOPLOX Damn. That sucks.
@@Victic005 yeah... about to cop a teal nightshade blue zx6r, they on sale at my local dealer rn for $8,900. Hopefully they will still be there in a few weeks. gatta save like 1 more check.
@@TOGTFOPLOX hell yeah. Love the motor. The torque curve is smooth and constant from 6k to 16k redline.
Still debating on picking up this exact bike.
Me too!!
can you use the OEM taillights to the fender eliminator??
people riding by might think he's having an argument with the bike with all those hand movements
I've had two litre bikes and always shunned the 600cc class for the street. That all changed after I bought a Daytona 675r. I have so much more fun on the street now than with a litre.
They are light... nimble... dart into the corners like a housefly... seriously amazing!
I got a zx 6R 2023 kawasaki ninja
Not a beginner bike at all
lol bro...not everyone has a complete lack of knowledge of throttle/clutch control. these are fine as a first bike. but be my guest and waste your money on a 400 or 650 and be bored of it. some of us are just built different
That’s the ego talking right there. The ego and critical thinking don’t go well together.
@@PetroHead Its not. I made the mistake of getting a 650 to start on and personally I was bored of it after the first week. Granted Ive been racing modified atv's and cars since Ive been a kid. If you are mature and have basic knowledge of throttle/clutch (i get not all people know how to drive anything with a clutch) there is no reason you cant safely start on a 600. If you doubt yourself or think a 600 might be too much for you then dont do it.
First bike was a 05 636. Rode it for 5+ years and am still fine. Just be mindful of wrong place wrong time.
Very Happy with my
ok I know they are not the same but kinda the same, but anyways APRILIA RS660 or KAWASAKI ZX6R? I started to consider the kawasaki because it is cheaper by like 2k-3k OTD. Please advise.
I’d go for the Aprilia.. all new tech, nice dash, more comfort.. but less power but also weighs 30lbs less than kawa.. will be reviewing 660 this week stay tuned.
@@PetroHead i cant wait for your review. Did you have the chance to ride it yet? Thank you for the swift reply! I did went and got a quote last friday and it is $14,053 OTD. Of course I got sticker shocked :(
@@unkindguy88 will ride this Friday and review it.
@@PetroHead awesome!
RS660 = inline 2 = ew.
I don't care if it's got great, useable power throughout; I fucking hate two bangers and I find the 3 and 4 cyclinder 600 class' death to be, quite frankly, sad.
can u make a comparison video on 6r and 959
Fosho... lets see if my co-presenter will be down to ride my 959 (he says yes lol)
R6 vs 959 comparison is huge difference, r6 is more easy to ride, build, maintain and reliable compare to the latter.
This or the CBR650R?
asking everyone around.. or maybe asked before but, could this make a good beginner bike?

I wouldn't recommend it. Half of the reason the insurance premiums are so high on the 600 class if because newbies buy them and squid up the streets.
600 is a lot of bike for someone new, with the perfect amount of power IMO for intermediate-experienced riders. Granted, my first street bike was a 600, but I'd ridden dirt for 15 years prior.
O5 zx6r 365lbs
What is the limit speed of this motorcycle ? (ZX6R)
150+ mph
Low power mode reduces power to 65%
It’s 80% actually. Says in the manual
@@TheBadassOne17 My book says 65% haha
I would consider it if quick shifter was both up and down and there was steering dampening. Otherwise for mostly street riding there are better alternatives. Honda CBR600RR is also something to wait for.
Quick up/down and dampener is easy. Less than 1K for both installed.
@@PetroHead i thought u cant install auto blip on zx6r? did i research it wrong?
Not 100% sure man
Yamaha R6 or Kawasaki ZX6R... and why? 🤷 Comment down below. 👍
ZX6R you get more for your money. 636cc, quick shifter up, a little better street comfort, great brakes, Kawasaki sound. All for thousands less. If you find one with < 4000 miles for around 7-8k its a steal
waiting for track day!😍
@@venka4921 Me too... seriously!! 🔥
@@PetroHead on zx6r?
@@venka4921 Maybe both? We'll see.. Tune in the next Live Q&A to discuss.
Can you turn abs on and off?
No
zx6r or 400 as a 1st bike?
There is a video for that on the channel.
Hello sir, what is your reading consumptive for daily use?
Not sure I understand your question.
@@PetroHead sorry, i mean, your fuel consumption
@@Omni.Trix93 He didn't respond, but I can answer that. I can range from 38 to about 50 MPG depending on how I ride. Compared to my old carbureted '07 ZZR600, it's about 10 MPG more efficient.
Sorry I normally read all comments and respond to questions... guess I missed this one.
But to answer, I gave the bike back and don’t remember but honestly, the last thing on my mind was fuel consumption lol.. I was WOT on it every chance I got 😂
@@PetroHead how often did u hit the gas station lol, man I jus got a 21 zx6r and I don’t ride hard at all but I live at the gas station on that bike. At least 2 times a day I have to fill up, on my 19 cbr600rr I can fill up once and I’m good all day.
bro your arms be moving way to much
Just close your eyes and listen to me drop some rhymes lol 😂
Bro I came here to see a 636 review and all I saw was arms flailing and pointing.
You can go and find another video or channel to watch. Peace!
How tall are you?
I have the orange version for 2020 and I am 5'4". I tippy toe everyday! Lmao
@@MZV807 What is your inseam? I am 5'4" and 28" inseam riding ninja 650 as first bike, and looking at this bike for 2nd bike, I am in my 50's started late in riding.
@@davidyuen877 I would say 28" inseam as well.
Love my 2019 zx6r, hate watching all the hand motions, really bud, put your hands in your pocket or something.
Mind telling me what your age is?
you should listen to your own advice when using a keyboard
