I remember when 1000cc supersports were 10k and 600cc were 7/8k, those were the days
Bought my 1987 Honda CBR1000F Hurricane New for $9,999.00. It lasted me 30 years, just sold it, one year ago Sunday. Kid I sold it too tried biting off more than he could chew, hasn't run since. University Students, try telling hem watching a person do something on you tube and actually doing the job are two very different things.
@@liveatvictoria6853 a 94 CBR1000F was my first bike, and I often try to find a deal on one constantly but to no avail
I remember in 2009, the economy was in the toilet, and the new 2008 CBR1000RR wasn't selling well, so the local dealers were selling them for $8,000 brand new.
Yeah just buy used like everyone else. Eventually they will get the hint.
Lol in israel with 7k you can buy a ninja 300:(
HeroRR is the best
I am still perfectly happy riding my 1st generation (1995) Ninja ZX6r , no need for upgrades :)
Quick shifter comes standard but abs doesnt, thats mind boggling
ElixirJD i think quick shifter is better
@@Ihelpanytime you have no idea what you are talking about. Nobody can brake smootly enough in an emergency to keep control over the bike and not drop it as an ABS, or even Cornering ABS..
Well remember that this bike is mainly aimed at track. On track abs is redundant
I own a 2005 kawi zx6r 636. I have about 30 -35 thousand km on it and she is still a beast. I bought it brand new 0km on it and raced it in a couple different circuits and stood on the podium a few times. I shaved almost 50lbs making the curb weight wet under 350lbs. I've at some performance parts a recommended by Kawasaki factory race team. Also gone 1 tooth down on front and 2 up on the back. I get 3rd gear wheelies at about 130km. Against 1000s of same era I would put money on my beast of a ninja
Agreed, prices are way too high on all brands,and models.
Awesome features added and am happy about. But then just as you rightly said, the older looks more aggressively and I would combine the older looks with the tail and the new features added on. Then it would be a bike to die for. But then again, still worth having.
Thanks for the video! I struggled between this bike and the z900! The gray color that the 6r comes with is amazing!
Picked the z900 mostly because of comfort... no regrets! Love the z900 but at times i wish i had the 6r
HeroRR is my favorite motorcycle vlogger. He’s one of the very few vloggers that very rarely strays from the topic of his videos and gives well researched, accurate and relevant information about the topic. I’ve unsubscribed from many other vloggers because they spend half the video talking about irrelevant information about their personal life. It’s frustrating.
I think they nailed it with that analogue tachometer......tfts are nice but seeing that needle rise with the sound increasing is just something else...thank you kawasaki
i honestly LOVE the analog revmeter, full tft displays are great but i think the analog revmeter looks more dope
Great video, I will agree that it was a good idea on Kawasaki's part to lower the price of the 600 sport class motorcycle. I would hope that other manufacturers will soon follow suite and help to revitalize the 600 class within the consumer market. Keep the content coming!
This video couldn’t have come at a better time! Just started researching the ZX6R as it may possibly be my next bike when I heal up! ;) Will definitely go for a slightly older generation simply because I prefer the more aggressive look as you mentioned.
I just picked up my 2019 636 the other day and I love it! Went from a 07 R6 to something totally rewarding .
I agree with almost everything you said! I really like the good old analog tach and LCD speedometer combo :)
Analog tach
The new look is the best thing they could have done! Looks dope af🔥
I love my 2019 636, well designed and very comfortable. I'm very happy with it.
I agree with your thesis here and plan to buy a leftover 2019. Great deal for the performance. Will be interesting to see if other manufacturers follow suit with price reductions.
My 2019 Ninja ZX-6R is now week old with 700km. It feels huge upgrade from 2004 ZX-6R 101tkm.
Thanks for another honest review video 👍🏻
Yeah I bought one and love it. Good content.
ZX-6R is a sweet bike, and now at 10k is more affordable. I've always liked the look of the R6 over the Ninja, but the Ninja just feels better and more comfortable riding it. Either are great bikes, but now that the Kawasaki is cheaper, it's a no brainier.
Good job Kawasaki way to set the bar by keeping price in check and giving use a lot of bang for the buck! Sport bikes have gotten way to pricey these days and that doesn’t seem to be helping sales I get all the new tech and all but nice to see a price that is consistent with 10 years ago thanks
More RC51 videos please!
DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT THAT!!!!!! :D
I was waiting for you to do a video on this bike 😂😂
Gotta say I love the new look much better than the 18.
It is very reminiscent of the 03/04 ZX6R and that's a massive compliment.
Literally about to pull the trigger on buying this as my first bike! Cant wait
How did it work out?
Just bought a one and I love it
Actually dig the hell out of the '04 front fairing, perfect!
Glad to see more 600's
I personally love the look of this bike and the design philosophy of Kawasaki, I love my Ninja 400 and I plan on moving up to a 636 in a few years, perhaps by then a TFT display will be standard equipment.
Duuuudde so stoked for this bike
Just picked up a 2019 and this thing RIPS.
Please keep analog tach/speedometers. I hate to see them go. They’re so awesome to watch.
Herorr you are a savior
Kawasaki is dope! They were the first ones to introduce TC into the 600 class and now, this extreme price point really shows they want this class to succeed. I own a Ninja 100, but often long for the lightness of a supersport class bike.
I went to a bike shop recently mainly to check out a 2017 GSXR1000 but the new Ninja zx6r sitting next to it caught my attention. I was happy to see it still have the increasingly “older” style gauge cluster with the analog tach. I actually asked the salesman if any of the gsxr1000’s still come with an analog tach. For the life of me I don’t understand why everyone seems to want the all digital screens on bikes now. Give me analog any day. A redundant smaller screen is fine, or as they did with the H2SXSE, but the manufacturers should make the style of gauge cluster an option at least if at all feasible. Not everyone wants to ride a smartphone, I prefer that needle moving.
Sweet bike! Go team Green!
love the bike! i would probably still just get the zx10 though!
I have the grey and blue 2019 zx-6r I do like it alot and well I havent got it to top speed yet I only hit 165 mph on it from dead stop. In about 1 mile. I do like the style of it personally but it is affordable and fast
Nope, Analog tach all day. The TFTs are nice but I love an analog Tachometer on my bike.
snowmanii Completely agree. I looked at this bike in a shop a week ago and was happy to see it still had an analog tach and the now older style gauge cluster. I really don’t understand why everyone seems to like the screens so much. Hell give me an analog speedo too 😀
Would you still recommend this even if I tell you that zx6r costs same as ninja 1000 where I live?
Just bought a 2017 one,ALL BLACK.. with ABS( mind you, I'm a noob) but I AM HAPPY
Im planning to buy one at the end of the year as thats when ill finally have my unrestricted license. This bike model however has a huge lack of colour options. All those available for sale, (at least where i live) are green.
I like the look of the last model a little more but this one is growing on me. You are right that it resembles the 400 some. However, I disagree about it needing a TFT. The analog tach, front and center looks awesome and I am personally over all of this digital nonsense every bike has now. We need variety, bro!
Can its pillon seat be modified as to make it a little tiny winy tourer? Also can a extra seat be attached
Why are ABS versions always so much more expensive? Always feels like a rip off
because you don't just pay for the system itself but also for the royalities/licensing they have to pay to Bosch.
Its actually quite a bit of extra hardware that needs to be installed, like extra brake lines, an ABS Pump/Valve regulator unit, ABS sensors, ABS computer and extra cable routing.
It´s not like you can just do an update and get ABS. But I´d say it´s defenetly worth getting, on the Street ABS can save your ass.
I feel like it should be standard. Just like cars.
Safety and people are getting more distracted on phone.
@@knives01ng it is standard here in Europe, so you only get the expensive version. Doesn't do anything to reduce the abs extra cost.
beautiful machine
What is the different between the ninja 650 and this one since both of them are 600ccs
Agreed, the front looks....well alright. Nothing to talk about.
But damn, 10 grand for that machine sure is a good price to start
Do you recommend me to ride an hr for a starter
Displays don't matter, I just did a whole trackday, I maybe looked down twice to see what gear I was in or a quick rpm check. I honestly couldn't tell you what speed I was going at any point. If you're looking at some dash you might as well ghost ride it into a wall as you're gonna crash eventually. Eyes up and always looking one step ahead.
Spot on.
Was lucky enough to pick up a brand new 2016 Kawasaki ZX-6R ABS KRT edition back in June of 2018, for $9800 out the door. Local dealership received one as a long awaited back order BUT the original buyer backed out of the deal... SO I was able to snag it for a good price and the fact that the bike was never registered was a great bonus. Makes me the first "owner" of the bike... So far this model that I own is my favorite of the Kawasaki ZX-6Rs... the fact that it has the better 636 engine, and the improved performance from the last generation... PLUS the bike looks amazing in its KRT colors... SO I am really glad I purchased this one, and NOT waited for the new model, as seeing it now, I am NOT a huge fan of the looks.
An all around amazing motorcycle in my opinion...
I think with this the 600cc class will make a roaring come back ESPECIALLY in todays market where you have more budget oriented buyers who want a super sport
Christopher Huggins 600cc will never make a comeback ...High insurance and the ZX6r in particular weighs as much as a liter bike except Kawasaki’s own 1000cc supersport..
It’s cheap but for people really looking for budget they are gonna stay away from a super sport at all cost .
I love My 2016 , 0 to 100 in 4 sec, Handles great, Awesome Brakes,,, Kawasaki does let the Good Times Roll
Agreed. The front is a bit too much.
I like the new fairing better. The old one looks dated to me
hey hero, you heard anything notable about the 2019 600rr redesign? ive heard rumors but have only found small scraps of legitimate information. visordown has an article that details the most notable information ive read in its final paragraph. the only photo ive seen that isnt obviously photoshopped looks like a slightly tamed 1000rr.
Is it me or does it look like the 2003 to 2004 636?
It's those skewed Dorito shaped headlights and the air intake
5k for the 400, 10k for the 600, and 15k for the 1000.
Now that's pretty smart pricing.
What is the top speed in mph on level ground near sea level?
Wish honda cared about their 600cc class, such a beautiful bike the Honda CBR 600 RR
I like the design but i want it with the front fairing of the old one.
The head lights reminds me CBR.
I love it! I agree with you 90%... I like the looks of the 2019 zx6r, and I don't really mind that it looks like the ninja 400.
I must admit at first i was not sure on the front.. looked a little out of proportion. But it looks great on the flesh ! Now krt or black ? I can't decide
I dunno... I like the way the look translates on an entry level ninja 400, but it's way too goofy and not nearly aggressive enough for the ZX6R.
Hey , what about minibikes??
Kawasaki zx6r vs r6 Which is the fastest?
Not a fan of the front end as well, it doesn't yell 636cc. Kawasaki was my first choice as my first super sport but i found a deal for a low mile 2011 gsx-r1000 and couldn't pass it up. So far, I am not disappointed but I would still get a kawasaki ninja zx6r if I had the money to do so.
am i the only one who hates everything moving to the tft dash i love how all bikes have their own unique dash. the 636 dash is functionally awesome!
my 2005 blue 636 w Yoshi under tail goes at least 170 mph. R1 got me though.
All I hear from pretty much everyone who ridden it, that the engine is freaking good even on streed. Good low to mid range torque (for a 600 supersport). I think this engine would be an awesome base for a middle weight sport tourer. I know that Kawasaki already has the 650 Ninja, but personally I prefer the in line 4 engines. If I want that in the middle weight, there is no choice but go for the Honda CBR 650R (and I only mean this for new bikes). Sadly I don't think that would happen even though Kawasaki capable doing some interesting thinks like the H2 line and the ZX25R.
I agree on just about everything you said !
You should try the triumph street triple
Hit the nail on the head.
I am still on my first bike and had decided that when I got a sport, it would be the R6. But you know what...
It wasn't that long ago that 600s we're $7-8k and liter bikes were $10-12k
The new model looks great in that grey color to me..green not so much
If Aprilia launches 600cc it would be the best perhaps In it's class, I wish CBR 600RR came back , hell of a beast it was .
My brother's friend had abs bike who actually raced on the track and his went out and locked up the front up and put him down at high speeds anything electronico to do with brakes always made me feel uncomfortable because anything electronical can fail
I wish they didn't copy the H2 look though I wish they kept it looking like the zx10r although it only looks ugly when it's next to a 2017 R6 but other than that good work for Kawasaki I wish they would update that next year.
Wait,.. the 600 SS bikes live again?
Yeah man!
I would go for CBR 650r mainly for looks
cbr650r and the zx6r are in a totally different class. cbr650r would compete with ninja 650.
To all the people who say "it looks like the 400"... put them side by side and you will see only the headlight area looks identical... like only the headlight and the part underneath, those fins taken from the h2 designs...
And to the people who say its ugly... maybe if the 400 didnt exist you might have liked it as you wouldnt feel like people will confuse u for riding a 400...
And to the people who genuinely dont like the design... i respect your opinion...
i see we have similar taste in body work, i also love older models, these new ones look like they come from space, i dont like this futuristic looks that most of the manufacturers are going for nowdays
I never get comparing a 600 supersport to a liter bike. Sure I love the idea of anoiter bike, but, to be honest, I'd rather have a 6R or the new upcoming 25R for hooning around. The liter bikes have way too much power to be fun on the roads.
The air intake looks really good like the 03/04 bike, but those headlights.....ugh
Herd the price point, lost my shit. I'm excited. I can't get one yet though
Gotta cop me one
Kawasaki is finally making riding fun and affordable again.
i think the standard dash from all the kawas at the moment very nice.
tft's are disgusting.
and i too like the older nose, compared to this one
Good performances,good and cheap bike but look is terrible like ninja 400
Dude the Ninja 400 looks amazing for being a smaller displacement bike.. Have you seen one in person? Parked right next to a super sport they still look great.
I get that people don't want it to look like a smaller bike but if the 400 didn't exist everyone would be going crazy about how good the new 636 looks.
The LED headlights look really good at night.
SUZUKI GSXR i agree it looks terrible and i hate how it looks like a sport bike but with a more of an upright body position. It’s like watching porn and it zooms in on the guys ass. An instant turn off.
They're trying to copy the Ninja H2 looks too much. It doesn't look aggressive at all IMO. And the gap between the fairings and the front is enormous looking. Overall I don't like the looks of the bike. And thus, could not see myself purchasing one of these bikes. I ride a gsxr 600 btw for the trolls.
I agree the zx6r color and body dont look the best but that tech for the price is nice. I'm split between the zx6r and R6 for next bike in a couple of years.
Celestial Yidam i personally think the 400 and 6r both look ugly the 300 is sharp and i like it
Prefered previous versions styling
bring back the 750 cc class!! Suzuki has the perfect intermediate..
💚Let’s make 600cc sport bikes great again 👍
It’s true I’m glad kawasaki started it. They know what consumers want.
Out here in India it's costs around 14999, stupidly expensive af.
in my country zx6r 2019 is expensive around 19300 dollar
