What is the top speed of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R? How can it be made even faster?
About 140–160.The only way to really improve that level of bike’s performance affordably is buy another faster bike.You can't just go for a header etc. and clock anything noticible on it.You have to sacrifice street manners and in a big way: cam, fuel, weight, and go on a diet. You have to make the handling immaculate.That bike at full race goes maybe 2% quicker but will handle 10% or more better.600s race “by mistake” not “by power.” Whoever is the most technically perfect wins.A guy on an old katana whose riding is perfect will spank an average rider on that bike if it was perfect. With less power he makes less mistakes or gets caught by them less.But I'll give you a free tip: 99% of cars and motorcycles find their biggest performance boost… by actually using the top range!Most people never redline.That's free power and speed you already have.Most mods boost midrange because that's where folks hang out. But real speed kills the middle and goes high.Which is why you never do it on the street. If you can react… you're slow.On the street if you can't react… you're dead.Real racing on a track is going for broke. Go to a track day and you'll spend money way better and get much better than modifying any bike.Most of us can't even max out a crummy cb750.
How to take the seat off a 2003 kawasaki 636 ?
use the key to unlock the rear seat, remove rear seat and you will see bolt at the front? near the driver seat. undo bolt and slide lever to the side. you can now remove seat (driver) from the bike.....
2013 Kawasaki ninja zx6r 636 vs. 2013 Yamaha r6.?
The extra displacement allows the bike to pull more from lower rpm's. This means for your 99% street and commuting riding, you will have better access to the power, and won't have to rev the bike as much to get up and go. I'm not sure about the 2013's, but generally from what I've read and heard, the R6's are usually the worst in terms of street "comfort." But that is from expert eyes who can find the subtleties between the bikes..I think the best way to know which one is most comfortable (obviously that's a relative term) is to go sit on both bikes and see which one feels better.
What are pros and cons of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R 636?
I'll go straight to the pros, which is:You got a really comfortable bike to use for commutingIts very nible and likes to go to a cornerSmooth power deliveryIt won't intimidate you just because its a supersportThat extra 36cc helps with the torqueIt has traction control and optional ABSNow the cons are:Its fast, but you won't feel it until it reached 100kphThe seat for the passenger is hard, if you're into itThe mirrors are weird, it works on the Ninja 300 but funny enough I don't like it on the 636And that's about it, although I do like some features on the ZX such as:That flat part on the tank, makes putting gloves easierI like the riding position, it not as agressive as you think. Really comfortableRide height is perfect, its not that tall.I like how the engine delivers power, I have to rev it to get it to work. That helps on city riding and traffic jamsThe rear fender worksNow what I don't like about this bike is:The windscreen is funny, I'd swap for something tallerThe mirrorsAnd finally, the headlights… just swap it for a 5000K with LED cornering light and you'll be fine
I want to get a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R for my first bike. What are some concerns that experienced motorcyclists have right away?
There are no absolute universal truths on this subject, and opinions are strongly divided.I’ve known people who have passed their tests and taken immediate access to things like CBR1000F (not the 1000RR Fireblade, the *old* 1000F - Truck Drivers’ Sportsbike :-) ) Despite the predictions of imminent, violent death, these riders survived.I’ve also seen totally unnecessary crashes caused by inexperienced riders getting in too deep on too much bike, or riding too close to their own limits, so that all situations become perceived emergencies.First thing is: the throttle turns both ways and the brake is not an on/off switch. If you ride like an asshole, you stand a good chance of being wiped out early, whatever you’re riding.However, a note of caution: Depending on the model, you’ve got 90 - 110 bhp on tap. That’s enough to get you into a heap of trouble, very, very quickly.With more experience, you don’t get quicker reactions to deal with trouble. You do, however, get to benefit from (at least):being able to spot the things that could become dangerous before they actually doan organised approach to riding that enables you to plan your “out” from the danger that you identified earlySpotting the hazards early allows you to react appropriately (and timely), rather than in panicthe ability to filter out the irrelevant stuff that’s going on around you, so you can concentrate on what’s really important (believe me, when you’re making “enthusiastic” use of 100 bhp on a bike, you’re not going to process everything, so you’d better make sure that you process the right things)By all means, if you want to get the Ninja, do it, but please treat it with the respect it needs, and give serious consideration to a proper training program (and I don’t mean just up until you get your licence; an advanced course is money and time well spent)Finally, whatever you ride, remember to always “ride your own ride”. Do not try to keep up with the guy in front, because the guy in front might be Valentino Rossi.Have fun, and keep it sticky side down :-)
Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R 636 or 2013 Suzuki SVF 650?
I've been riding a Ninja 250r for a year now, and I'm ready to upgrade to a more powerful bike. I was initially thinking an r6 but caught my eye on the 2013 Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R 636 and 2013 Suzuki SVF 650. My heart is torn on the Ninja ZX6R because it would mostly be a daily commuter ~10 miles and the occasional long distance road trip. But the style just gets me tl;dr: been riding for a year, which bike to get?
What does the steering lock of an 06 Kawasaki 636 zx6r say?
I do not know if it is called a steering lock or ignition switch or whatever, but I can not find anywhere to buy a new one so I am just curious as to what the plastic said. The previous owner went outside to find someone beating on the ignition switch with a hammer trying to open it up to hotwire it and now I do not know what a few extra clicks of the key do. I know the order (from bottom left of the circle) is STEERING WHEEL LOCK · OFF · ON and then the rest I do not know. I tried to make them out from this picture I found on google: http://www.zx6rspeed.com/pics/05-ninja-zx10r-dashboard.jpg but the key is in the way! Any help = greatly appreciated
In motorcycles like the Kawasaki ZX636, at what speed does RAM air start having an effect on engine output?
I mean if you take a deep breath and blow into the front of your bike while it sits parked w/ the engine revving it “activates” your RAM air.Want to really learn some stuff? Research on how colder and more dense air affects the power efficiency of ICE systems. Includes anything from SRAD/RAM air, Forced induction/charge-air, altitude/air pressure, and more:LOL “RAM Air activate!!!”
Which is the better motorcycle: Yamaha R6 or Kawasaki ZX6R?
This is an unanswerable question in reality. Both bikes are very close in outright capability, and it will come down to the rider and the personal ‘fit’.You can bring up the spec sheets for both bikes, and depending on which spec is most important to you, you can easily select a ‘better’ bike that way.However, the ‘better’ bike for me, probably won’t be the ‘better’ bike for you. My ex used to ride Kawasaki (2005 ZX12R), and for her, those bikes were the right fit. She had long legs, and the Kwaka riding triangle was perfect for her. Me? Too big. I’d lean the big Kwaka over in the corners, and if I wanted to get my body position over where I wanted it for hard cornering, my outside leg would be off the footpeg, waving about in the air. My legs are just too short. But the R1? Much smaller riding triangle. I can get my body off the side of the bike and remain firmly integrated with the bike.However, she hated my R1. It cramped her legs into a space far too small for comfort.So, if anyone tells you that “manufacturer x is the BEST BIKE TO GET!” you know they don’t really know what they’re talking about. Unlike a car, getting the right fit on a bike is more important than the bike’s theoretical potential.However, if you absolutely have to have that bike you like the look of, you *can* modify it to provide a riding triangle which works for you. You will need aftermarket:RearsetsClip-onsTo create the riding triangle which works for you.
