That is a very good question, thank you for asking it.......javaman wrote:Niceee !!! SO how does it feel compared to the ZX6 ?
After test riding all the latest offerings, including the 07 ZX6R and some of its competitors I have come to realise that the 04-05 ZX6R (and by extension the 03-04 ZX6R) are probably the best 600ish class bikes you are going to see in a long long time... the 07 model and its competitors just dont have the clever power that the 636's do. I just COOULDNT buy the latest 6 because it lacks the torque I am used to.... and I dont see any 600's on the horizon that are going to compare..... oh yes.... hang on to those 636's guys...
The 05 ZX10R rides really well, it corners in a similar way to the ZX6R I am so used to, but simply has bucketloads of torque all the way through every gear...... making it fun to ride and also very user friendly.....
Brakes = As good as any I have used
Accelleration= Awesome
Cornering = A little bit more sluggish then a 600, but not so much so that it is obvious
Comfortability= It is actually a bit more comfy than the 6 was..... but the 03 I had was known for being uncomfortable

Nice work mate! You know I love the Crims, and I almost ended up with a black one. Definitely a bike worth hanging on to.
Make sure you setup the preload front and rear, it will improve the suspension notably and is worth taking the time to do...and keep your eyes open for arse cracks
