Dodgy spark plug in 05' ZX6

G'day folks,
Kinda spewed today, took my ZX636 down to the bike shop this morning for suspected blown exhaust gaskets, (to me that's what it really sounded like as there seemed to be no real loss of power), when I rang to see how the bike was going they said nothing wrong with gaskets, the popping ...

Re: 2005 ZX636R FI light

2005 ZX636R FI light

G'day folks,
The other day riding to work in the belting down rain I noticed for the first time the FI warning light came on, it ended up happening 3 or 4 times ONLY when coming to a stop, it would stay on for about 3-4 seconds then go out. On the ride home it didn't happen once, that was Thursday ...

Hi everyone,
Just a quick one , I was kinda wondering what sort of range should you get out of a full tank on a 05' 636? having quite a large family I tend to try to be more on the lean side, she never really goes over 10,000 RPM I cruise at 80Kph in 4th at around 6,000 RPM... I always use BP ...
