Z06G Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 After hearing the argument on the kawa 636 i decided to run it and see what it could do. For the record i've only been riding for a year and this was the first time ever at the track on a bike. 2005 zx6-R bone stock Launching the bike at 4500 bogged pretty bad, 5500 was about best i could do on stock wheel base, and 6000 and above was nothing but headlight in the sky, but thats were i wanted to come out of the hole. Only got about 5 runs in, with my best on 10.9 at 126. With a couple more practice runs i should be able to get it around 10.70s, and very low 10s with a lowering link, straps, sprocket change. http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t99/evogarrett/Picture1543.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t99/evogarrett/Picture902.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Not bad I want to take my R6 to the track just to see if I can squeak a 10 out of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z06G Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 how is it dragging a bike garret?? Awesome, also thanks for all the comments guys, i was just tired of waiting. We couldnt have gone at a worse time, marion had highschool nite yesterday and every fucking kid brought ma or pa's family sedan to race. I need to be slammed asap, at about the 5 runs i did get in 3 of them were just popin the front end up like a rubber band lol. So im sure ill enjoy next time being lowered and launching harder.

Got-Boost? Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Didnt they make the 636 and the 600rr in the same year? Yes, the 636 wasn't legal in AMA racing so the 600RR took it's place on the track. The 636 was more or less a marketing thing for the street.

Kawboy1647545515 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 FWIW: the 636 version was legal in WERA where I believe it did quite well. 600s there are legal to I believe 650cc and pretty much all the top bikes are running over 600cc so you can't call it a "cheater" bike there. The '03/04 bikes were also seen competing very well in the 750 class (including AMA at the time). This is nothing new though as the R6 did very well in this class too.

The 636 was more or less a marketing thing for the street. I meant the 600rr being faster than the 636. Only because the rr had a shorter stroke and reved quicker than the 636. I never believed this untill my instructors and other people at my tech college kept explaining this to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
