    Reset your trip meter whenever you fill up and use that as your fuel gauge.

    That is a stunning bike in great condition for its age. I’m currently restoring one of these, the previous owner left it sitting outside for years. I actually owned one of these for about 10 years and loved every minute of it, glad I’ve got one again 👍

    It's Fantastic bike I own the same model zx6r but Red/black paint. It is a joy to ride very fast and comfy. 76 000km on the clock. I love Ninja more than my ex Gixxer and Yamaha R6 ;)

      Sure it’s the zzr600 fairing bracket for the 2005 to 2008 us market bike. Do a quick search on eBay, it’s about £30 and you remove clock bracket, bird cage and attach replacement fairing bracket to the clocks and mirrors in one unit. It’s good, mirrors vibrate a bit more but worth it

      I actually went the other way and on my 2002 636 and took mine off to swap over to the bird cage for the retro look.
