Isn't it cool that you can just fix the text in an article whenever you find a mistake? Sure beats the corrections column!

OH CRAP! I've already got ZR1000 tattooed on my arm!

this is why I only get tatoos on my butt...

That's OK

Just get a plastic simulated bicep arm covering like the plastic fake frame spar on the Z1000 and you'll match.

Re: That's OK

hmmm... before I do that, I'll want a second opinion

Re: That's OK

OK, I'm convinced now.

(BTW, the very notion of a beauty cover intended to look like a section of frame makes me want to vomit all over the lobby of Kawasaki Heavy Industry's headquarters)

I'm glad to see that Kawasaki's pricing remains very reasonable and I am predicting that there will be alot of ZX-6Rs and Z1000s on the road this spring. I do however have a question. Which motorcycle puts out more HP, the ZX-6R or the ZX-6RR? I have not seen any specs on these bikes yet and I'm curious as to what their real differences are besides the 37cc displcacement and a few extra trick pieces of hardware on the RR.

Re: That's OK

which one is the fake spar? is it the big alloy looking casting behind the engine?

 

[VFR1273]

The RR version has forged pistons and revs faster and higher...and comes ONLY in "ugly green".

 

[JLittler]

$10 says the 600 will produce more HP in a peakier fashion whereas the 636 will have more torque and a less peaky HP curve



One's a homologated Supersport (WSBK) race bike, the others a real world street sportsbike.

[DJS]

Yep

It's a tubular frame with a big ole hunk of plastic made to look like a frame spar. Maximum cheese if you ask me, I'd be embarassed to own it.

Re: Kawasaki New Model Pricing Info - Colours

Just stopped by the recently updated Kawasaki US site and found that they are offereing the 6r in 4 colours this year. Good stuff, Kawasaki.

Why can't we have more than 2 or 3 colour options from Japan every year? Are they afraid of spoiling us rotten or something?

Re: That's OK

Agreed. The bike looks so damn cool though.

Kinda like Pamela Anderson. I know they are fake but we still want to see what it is like...

Re: 2003 Kawasakis on Kawasaki Webpage

When is Kawi going to post basic specs on their 600's? Basic information like seat height, wheelbase, and dry weight are "TBA". What gives?
