coltboostin Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Good friend owns a bike speed shop down here-he tell me he has something for me to check out-Swing buy-and this beautiful 06 636 is sitting there. Take it for a spin-and WTF?! I though I was on a ZX12!I asked him what was done to it, becasue it sure was quite-its BONE stock. I could not believe it,a nd after looking for the no2 for 20 minutes, I gave up.Did a bit of research-and per Sport Rider- ZX-6R ('05) 10.38 @ 135.6Holy hell! To put this in perspective- GSX-R1100 ('97) 10.45 @ 130.2Thats beating up on your cousin's GXr1100! So-I can get this thing for 5k. Mint-2000 miles. Black on Black. Good buy?And-how much can I sell a nice 01 CBR 600F4i for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I've had an '02 ZX-12R. Look at my myspace default picture. I also have an '03 636 and have ridden my buddies '06 636 who is also a member here. Neither one of them can come within' 10-15 bike lengths from 0-165mph when racing against a 12r. 12r is WAY faster! :wink: But 636 will crucify it in the twisties. And that sportrider 1/4 time is their time. You shouldn't pose on what a magazine says. I think it's so funny when people flaunt their bikes by saying, "Shit it's suppose to do this...etc." That don't mean squat, it's what YOU the rider can do on it yourself is what counts.

I've had my '03 636 on US35 near Jamestown and Washington Courthouse up to 167mph indicated...I had my elbows on my knees and was as tucked as I can get, it wasn't going no higher. Ofcourse realisticly with speedo error correction I was going around high 150's. Bone stock other than BMC race filter and Muzzy slip-on.

[/quote:a4a29] This is my second season, first year as an expert, first year on a 600. I've picked it up pretty quickly, but now i'm in the big leagues and things are gonna be much more difficult. It def. costs a TON of money to do this sport, especially where i'm at. Luckily my dad and I have raced bikes and cars for years and he supports it, this year i'm slowly taking on the economic demands, and boy do they hurt!
