hmmmm, does the zx6r have the carb balancing hse thingies in the intake ducts?
anyone with a 9 will be able to show you what im talking about.

It was struggling down the straight without the ram air. Even 600's were going past him.

I had that trouble on my 9 once and it was that the balancer tubes had come loose. (or I didn't refit them properly)
One was loose on the metal end (front) - the other loose at the carb
If you have no fear, you're not going fast enough. Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience.
ok, minor update... shrek snorkels were removed and the bike now runs much better (still kinda shit), id be guessing i now need to rejet/change the needles, to get a proper A/F ratio... at least its rideable above 40km/h now
