cOoTeR Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Yes that just screams scamalicious. Anytime they want personal info and have a weird story something is not right. Run away! Run away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 the zzr is the EXACT same bike as the 200-2002 Zx-6 minus the fairing stay... its the zx6j same parts everything actually the fairings as all interchangable from the zx9r aswellI think you're 99% correct here, but the old gen ZX-6 (versus the those badged as teh ZZR) got firmer springs, I think.I looked into these quite a bit before buying my F2 a few years ago.If the price is right on the ZZR, and you can tolerate carbs (for a first bike, you'll never know the difference, and you can work on them yourself...) I wouldn't write it off.A couple of people have recommended an R6, and I have to say that's got to be the least comfortable street bike ever made. Everything that makes it awesome on a race track makes it a pain in the ass (and wrists) on the street.Be realistic with yourself about where 95% of your riding is going to take place. The answer is probably "highway." Now come buy my take-offs, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked Posted April 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Appreciate the insight from the members and constructive criticism. Was off work today, and drove around from place to place checking out a few more bikes. No settling. Found my R6 and for a good deal, IMO. Not home yet, but pics later.

Wicked Posted April 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Been searching alot. Finally found an R6 that I was happy with the price. The 636 still would be a nice bike. May help my girl get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
600ZZ4eb Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 congrats on the r6, but for the record (its late i know) you can not compare a katana and a zzr. kawi is 100 lbs lighter and handles way better. it has clip ons that are on top of the triple tree and its about 95-100 hp. best part searches are done under the 02 zx6r. Only two issues for me is no gas light or warning and carbs. Its been a great bike for the last 15k on the dial. :-) Dont really think its a great starter bike cause it will do 160, but the katana was.....it was my first bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
