hehe just kidding, wanted to know actual numbers here of owners or previous owners. Thanx.
Cant go past a 6R!!!!!!

(might even allow other under litre class bikes to have there say)

Dont you agree that if a 636 isnt fast enough for you.... you arnt riding it right...

What do you think?

600 is fast enough for me but I want more.

Crashed my first 636 (02 model)... :shock:

Replaced it with 04 636... :twisted:

I don't need a big bike to compensate for any appendages...

Amen to that - I just cannot *fit* on a 600 any more in comfort :oops:

, and I don't apologise for having out-grown the lack of hp that anything under 1 litre has.......so there you go :roll:

But everyone has there own favourites, the important thing is that you enjoy what you ride, I sure as hell love riding my 12, but I also like riding heaps of other bikes as well.......none of which have remotely the hp of the El Grande

well, had a 99 6R for a year or so, then sold it for a house deposit. Was a good bike but bit small physcially. I'm 6'3 and 90 odd kg's. Well 2 years later bought the 12R and really love it.

PS totally smoked my fly shit weight mate on his 636 yesterday. :finga:

any 12R owners want to have their say and hijack this thread?

I love my '01 ZX6. Would've rather had the '02, but the '01 is enough fun for my first step up from a two fiddy.

I can't decide whether to get the 07 636 :wink:

or move up to a 9 when it's upgrade time. Oh well, plenty of time to ponder that one.

can't really coment on the 6 cos i've never ridden one.
but comin out of corners at winton, i was all over the 600cc bikes and a couple of 750s as well.

what is it about 12 owners that they have to constantly go on and on about their bikes... I call it hayabusa syndrome. All the mags say the busa is better (even though we know its not) so they seem to feel the need to 'defend' their bikes.
9 owners are almost as bad.

Us 6 owners know we have the best bikes and so dont need to constantly talk them up.

Lets hope no one takes me too seriously!

Smek, I promise you this mate - when I come to Victoria, I will *gladly* :shock:

give you the keys to my 12..........you can take it for a *short* ride :shock:

.........

and I guarantee you will then understand why 12 owners go on and on and on and on and on and on and on.... :lol:

Gosling if its comfortable its not a sports bike

nah just kidding just dont try to do 200 kms of straight freeway the seats wherent meant to be sat on.

There a good thing for weekend blats and trackdays the 6r but for longer runs theres better things just wish they made a z1000 with fairings i can see them getting very cold and wet.
