thanks mate, yeah its hard to hear its a ...

05 zx-6r (636) making noise, advice needed

Hi Everyone!

Thank you for looking, I have an 05 zx-6r and it has started making an odd noise, not so much what I would call the kwaka tick as it had this before however it is a more consistant noise.

Re: Anyone know where to get Stealth Bar Ends?

The extra weight stabilises the bars in theory, the factory add a specific weight to suit the bike hence why its not a good look whacking some blingy alloy ones that
offer nothing but a boost in appearance in return for your outlay, I don't know how it works but they would not bother unless it was ...
