I had the R6 06 and upgraded to a zx6 09. First session it felt VERY weird!! I honestly thought I'd made a mistake and that I wouldn't get used to the sitting position and forks. Well, the day progressed and by the 4th session I was already matching my PB on the R6. 5th session I beat it!! :kuda:

Completely stock zx6r track bike (other than race farings and GP209s treaded) vs R6 06 track bike w/full Akro Ti + filter + PCIII + I. Module (all dyno tuned) + Q.shifter + GP209s slicks (190 rear) + Ohlins steering damper + Ferodo HH pads + braided lines...

See where I'm going with this? 8)

I havent ridden a 05-06 636 but id imagine it would b a better roadie, 09 better trackie. Having said that i used the 09 as a roadie and if u r upgrading from a lams bike u wont think its gutless. The tacho on the 636 is shithouse compared to the 09 6.


Thats why god invented the rev-limiter :lol:

Or remove dash insert shift light=Profit :kuda:

If it's anything like the shift light on the 09 I'd say it's pretty useless too...

I had this on the R6, pretty useful to be honest. Especially the voltmeter for the battery since it was a track bike and I would only start it like once every 5-6 weeks!

Oh well, as long as you can see it... I'd just set it on bright!
