1. Who owns/rides a 2007 ZX6. I'm looking at buying one. Are there anythings I should be be wary of?
2. Where can I buy a head gasket for a 1999 ZX6. Can you recommend any suppliers who are supporters of this forum. How hard are they to change.

Cheers!

A couple of questions....

07 zx6's at some build dates had a recall to rebuild motors, have heard of one outside the build recall dates munching itself. Check the recall and see if the work was done. I had one that was rebuilt and no problems after that. But other than that theyre ok :lol:

as for gasket sorry no help 8)

as Firey said re the main issue to watch out for.

for a head Gasket call John at Mornington Kawasaki. They are a site sponsor down that way and will ship it to your door.

Have a look HERE.
Dunno if you can get it cheaper from the mob Blurr mentioned, but at least you'll have the part number.

Our tracky was an 08 and dropped a valve at 3,000klm's. In hindsight we should have got the valves checked each year (for worn buckets) but on the road they should be fine at longer intervals.
