Thanks Mark for a brilliant review. I took a demo ride & was blown away by how good the 2019 ZX6R is. I love the new styling. Strong engine, excellent brakes, great suspension, best feature smooth quickshifter. One minor prob. For owners, quickshifter can easily be turned off by mistake by pressing select for 2 seconds; I did this by setting clock to BST. Currently running in, just over 200 miles. Got KRT & 4yr warranty - great price. Prev. Owned Honda CBR600RR & two Triumph Daytonas; the ZX6R is much better. I wasn’t a Kawasaki fan, but now I definately am! Thanks to JW Groombridge at Heathfield, England, excellent dealers.
sorry for late reply derek ,only just noticed your message great choice ,i love mine to bits all the best mark
Kawis and suzukis most underrated bikes on the market. Shame
I’ve has three Kawsaki’s. Great bikes across the board.
Loved the way you rode the bike for the real world unlike some other vloggers I won't mention here. Refreshing to see you actually focus on the job at hand without feeling the need to treat public roads as your own personal race track e.g. pop monos, execute illegal overtakes or do ridiculous speeds blurring out the speedo to stop plod from booking you after the fact. We all know the bike can do these things but there is no need to see it in what is essentially a consumer information bike review. A genuinely Intelligent review that manufactures, insurance companies and dealers will no doubt appreciate. You deserve more subs.
Thanks Richard I liked it so much I bought one last week ! All the best mark
Na we need to see these bikes being thrashed, that’s what they were built for. Any problems or shortcomings will be apparent when cracking on, which is informative for potential buyers. What’s the point in watching somebody doddle around on a 600, then you go and buy one and find that the suspension is too bouncy at speed? I’m not talking about this guy, just in general
Who buys a 600 or 1000 cc super sport just to pootle around on? Hardly anyone, there are much better bikes for that
Love your reviews mark. Very enthusiastic
hey man... another great review! I enjoy listening to you speak just as much as I enjoy your reviews! keep em coming
Thanks yurico !
Thanks for the review, I'm currently trying to decide between this one and an older model, so this was really helpful.
I think the model before this is still 95% as good regards mark
Our cuppeth overflows Mark, you're certainly getting some films out. Love this bike!
Hi wight, yes its one of my favourite super sports bikes ,that engine is just amazing all the best mark
Good to see you back on you tube with a great review ... just about to press the subscribe button.
Thanks Robert 👍
Good to see you back Mark, any prospect of an up to date FJR review, I know you did one a few years ago but a new model road test would be great. Thank you.
Hi andy ,would love to but i never seem to see one as a demo ,but ill chat to crescent yamaha as i have a good relationship with them now, and see even if they have a nearly new one I can try all the best mark
I’ve seen lots of reviews from lots of people on lots of bikes. Yours is tops. Cheers mate.
Great thanks :)
You talk well! Just keep posting and you'll grow soon.
Alright my luvver. I like the rider's view- dash, top yoke, mirrors. All very smart.
Very nice review ,thanks appreciated , this 68 year old is in love with the Kawa,636
Lovely thanks Johann ,I bought one myself :)
New sub here 😁 Been waiting on 2019 6r review for a while
Thank you 😊
Most enjoyable 636 video yet ! Thx
Thanks Neal ! :)
Your reviews are pure and addictive mate! Keep it up!
Thanks Uday !!
@@markpulling12 I really like your gloves, which brand are those?

Great review as per usual mark 👏 I currently own a 67 plate ninja 650 only been riding a yr but test rode a zx6r 636 on a kawasaki demo day loved it...really tempted to upgrade soon 🤔....Keep up the good work
Thanks damien ...it's quite a ripper isn't it !! :)
Get one, it's much better than a 650. No comparison really.
nice review dude
Great review
Im a big fan of the 636 but i still think the previous model is a much better looking bike ;)
Much better looking indeed.
Bugrahan Cilsal totally agree ive got the previous model and boy im so glad , check my videos of my 636 :)
The 2013-2018 was a beauty of a bike I traded a 2018 for the 2019, the 2018 felt a bit more aggressive, but the styling was starting to look dated, all and all I feel the new one is a better machine, I could have told you 5 things I didn't like about the 2018, with the 19' I only have one complaint and one alone, it doesn't have a 999cc engine, other than that it is sheer perfection.
Karl Walter Sturm the only thing i like about the new 636 is the QuickShifter and the LED Headlights as standard , id like like your thoughts on my bike would love your advice on it thanks
@@MotoQuickShifter I think both the 2018 and the 2019 are fantastic bikes, I smoke R-6 and all other 600s, save the daytona with out breaking a sweat and almost anything on the road save (super-sport litter bikes), i truly believe this bike is a quasi-litter, what dont you like about it?
Nice video mate, love these bikes too, I must try and get a ride on one. I'm surprised I've no come across your channel before now, new sub 👍
Thanks zx6rs are amazing all the best mark
Love the video mate, waiting on the release of this bike here in Australia. Wondering how it compares to the R6, both look awesome!
Hi ryan well here in the uk thats an easy answer ,the r6 is £11799 eek but the ninja is £9600 2k cheaper ,and the r6 has lost a bit of power due to euro 4 105 hp the ninja has a solid 115 at the rear tyre id go for the ninja all the best mark
Glad I found this video. Been debating but mind now set.
Thanks
Just bought one myself today Lee !!!!
All goes to plan should be shopping this Saturday.
I really appreciate your review. And i am glad to say I bought one🙂
Great choice thanks
Pick one up next Thursday thanks for your review 😀👍🏻🏍
Nice one Shaun. I'm still Loving mine. Amazing bike
👍
I like it but I like the 2018 front better other than that great bike great video definitely earned a subscriber here hope to seeing more great reviews.
Thanks for the sub 👍
Great review mate 👌
Lovely thanks Trevor :)
This was the first ZXR video I saw. This was the video that made me want to buy one and now I own the 2021
Nice one jay .I still have mine aswell
Awesome bike regards mark
GOOD STUFF MAN
Love this bike oh so much... Picking up mines in two months for spring here in Canada... Getting the full green. Already have all my riding gears and is only in need of a good camera as I'm going to be using it mainly for my 2wheelOutReach Channel..
Hi i loved it so much when i test rode it ,ive bought one too !! getting it 1st march cant wait
Great review Mark :)
Thanks Michelle. I want one !!
@@markpulling12 Think i need to test ride one :)
Haha yes get ready for one hell of a thrill ride,if your in the south of uk give bournemouth kawasaki a shout
That exhaust is enormous
Really enjoyed watching your review and will check out some of your other videos 👍
I think this zx6 looks fantastic although some people don't like the front fairing
Hi Glen yes I agree It looks rather different from the previous version ,I tell you what I can't stop thinking about this bike ....I really want one so many lovely bikes and not enough garage space or money :). All the best mark
@@markpulling12 Haha thanks for the reply.. I'm the same i just keep watching endless videos of it ! Has to be the krt edition although the grey one looks smart but not available in the uk
Glen Whyte that’s why I’m getting the 2018 model
@@glenwhyte2555 amazing Glen !! I got this bke today very very pleased ,will post a review when the weather improves :)
@@markpulling12 Hi mark i thought the zx6 had parking lights (ie parked up side lights with the keys out for a short period.. which is handy if at night im parked in a normal car bay outside say Tesco ) i know you also have the r&g tt like myself and i don't seem to have parking lights ! They are on only with the ignition so wondered of you might shed some light on this.
I'll be asking my kwak dealer at some point. Won't actually make much difference as I'm loving the bike 👍
cool vídeo man 👍
This is definitely my next bike. The only reasons holding me back is I am a new rider so still cutting my teeth on a Ninja 300 and I want to get a nice shed built to park it in away from the elements: random hail storms, icy rainy nights, very windy days that kick up tons of dust all the time.
Hi you are going to love it ,i want one myself !! al the best mark
The Ninja 400 has pretty good pickup. I bought one and was very impressed. I'm looking to get a 2019 ZX6R this week but will keep the N400 because I love it and it's great for commuting.
Yall wasting your time seriously. Just get a liter bike already seriously. I own both a zx6r and zx10r and it's no comparison
Nice video man! Really liked how you explain things!
Just a couple of quick questions - does the bike really feel different on low mode? And did you have any problems with the windshield (some sportbikes divert all the wind in your face if you are not really tucked in)? Cheers!
Hi yes low power is about 100hp and you can really feel the drop ,good in the wet I suppose,the screen is low and the wind hits me in the chest ,but tbh when I was going for it tucked in a bit I didn't find it a problem and wouldn't change the screen all the best mark
You may have made my life and bank balance a little more complicated/empty 🤔😂 Top vid mate 👍
Just bought one myself !! Thanks Alex they are amazing All the best mark
@@markpulling12 same!
It looks great in person, I thought the lights were a bit off but in person they suit the bike. The KRT paint looks incredible! Id get some nice rear sets for it
Hi thanks im really enjoying it,400 miles now done and the weather is getting better here in the uk happy days :)
Hi Mark - not a bike for me but really enjoyed your review. Just subscribed and looking forward to your next vlog! Yours aye, Alan
Thanks alan !!
These are coming thick and fast, making up for lost time eh. ;) Hope you get to review the 2019 CB500X when it comes out in March.
yes its on the list ill keep a look out in march :)
Stunning bike Marc
Thanks David ☺️
Great Review Mark, few things I found with my 2013 is it has136hp seems kawi de-tuned the later models from what i'm told as they seem to do with everything after first year or 2. No ECU issue's via my vin as was the case with some of the 2013 models. Also no issues with clutch shifting at any speed at least with mine and it is a pure rocket ship so I feel no need for the quick shifter but a nice add on. Wish it had a stock steering damper like the older models but was a simple fix, It also came with a two brothers exhaust and the cat delete and led lights as well. I was lucky to grab a white and black model used with only 2000 miles for only 5k which seems to be rare being a (white/black model) and is a real show stopper every place I go for sure. Also have a Vortex 520 conversion for the low and mid leaving behind a few MPH at the top end but still able to get 154/156 top end more than needed IMO, I mean let's face it unless you are running in a straight line not much missed. I had a ZX10R before prior and this is way more fun and flickable in the twisties and running mich power RS tires that have been epic, 33 front 28 rear for road 33/25 for track. I could go on and on but think you get my point lol, this is a winner for sure. Cheers
Hi rich great comment thanks ,still love mine to bits :)
I have a Kawasaki 636 2005 a very nice bike to ride am was thinking of getting a new model you've just made my mind up
Great review Mark, Could you do a review on the Kawasaki ZX10R
I'll see if the dealership has one :)
Beautiful bike and great test, thank you. I went to the dealership just to see it and the one they had was a cool battleship grey. I almost bought it but my credit was way lower than I thought. Thanks "credit karma", you fucks. You've been feeding me the wrong score for over a year.
Hi tim im seriously considering getting one myself !
Happy to say I'm picking my krt up next Friday can't wait ! R&g tall tidy and frame sliders gong on and leaving the rest standard for now. I like the grey but thought it was only available in the states ?
@@glenwhyte2555 I'm getting one too Glen on the 1st March with an r and g tail tidy !!!!
@@markpulling12 great stuff ! Where half way between dorset and west Sussex 🤔😂
@@glenwhyte2555 we will have to meet and compare notes ! Where are you getting yours from ?
I fully agree with Richard , very mature responsible way of testing, you will go from strength to strength. You deserve to do well.have you done a review on the 400.regards from RSA
Yes I have the 400 on my channel :)
What a review 👍👍👍 Fantastic. Complete for road users.
Could you please compare it with street triple rs? Apart from wind blast, everything on paper is so close.. I basically want to know how they stack up regarding handling, funs per miles and top speed!
Hi vibhu,like you said they are very close on specs,fun factor id say the same ,top speed will be a little higher on the ninja id say,so really it boils down to the comfort ,the triumph is upright and comfy the ninja has a sporty riding position all the best mark :)
Thank you very much for the great review of the bike i agree with everything that you say, you have got it down to a t. Thanks to you i will most likely be getting my ZX6R from BOURNEMOUTH KAWASAKI i am keeping an eye on there stock the post 2019 models seem to be selling fast. Tanks Jim
Thanks Jim ... Kawasaki have stopped selling these now but there are lots available second hand :)
@@markpulling12 yep thanks mark the way i see it is i have nearly 3 years of ZX6R to pick from so i should be able to find a bike i like.
Good video Mark, I’ve been riding the ninja 400 since October, which I love and I’m really tempted by the 636. Not sure what the mrs will say tho!
Thing is Martin it looks the same ,so they never know ,that's how I get away with it hehe :)
mark pulling I actually thought that myself! She’s not interested in motorcycles at all, so she probably wouldn’t notice.😃
Thank you, helpful review. I was thinking to get the zx 6r as my second bike, but I suspect Malta is just too small for it.
Haha I Know Malta well ,yes I wouldn't really recommend this bike for there ,a street bike like a z650 would be more suitable regards mark
If they had the performance from this bike but put on the fairings from the 2013 version it would be the perfect 600
Hi Mark. You forgot to mention it's an inline 4. That's why it's so fast.
Mark, which bike would you suggest? I am thinking zx6r or cbr650r or z1000sx? I am also 5"7, first time big bike buyer though I had some riding experience. I am going to keep this bike for long time, it will be my daily commuter and time to time take it to highway out of town. Which would you recommend?? Thanks
Hi Johnny ...I'd go new ninja1000sx it's awesome see my review...the 636 is my personal bike great fun but too racy for daily use....the Honda is nice but built to a bit if a price and the engine has rough vibes near the top end ....the ninja 1000 does everything brilliantly and is well priced aswell try them all out if you can and let me know.... cheers mark
Just got back from my local Kawasaki dealers after purchasing the exact same bike! They had 1 left in stock, apparently they aren't in production anymore. Unfortunately unable to test ride it as it wasn't registered but after watching many reviews I don't think I'll be disappointed
Great choice peter !
@@markpulling12 Hey thanks for the reply!
Great video. This bike had you grinning cheek to cheek. That’s how a bike should make you feel. Perhaps we’ve lost that rawness with the huge adventure armchairs that are so popular now. I’m really interested in this bike how was it at motorway speeds was engine screaming away at high rpm? Wind buffer?
Cheers.
Hi Joseph I loved this bike so much I have now bought one !! See my video ,I'll do a full owners review soon mark
Yeah I enjoyed that ride with you. Nice looking bike and it goes ok. Is the suspension adjustable?
Hi alex yes those showa bpf forks have preload ,compression and rebound and same on the rear
You give the best reviews ! How about some atv reviews ? cheers.
Hi paul ,ill see if i can get hold of some to demo review :)
@@markpulling12 be safe, best to you !
What about Triumph Daytona 675r???
Is it better than Daytona??
What is your opinion??
What a stunning bit of kit, something tells me you might be investing 😜
Hi Dave I'm seriously considering getting one of these even though i thought I'd never get a super sports again :)
@@markpulling12 My advice would be to place your order and treat yourself. Life's to short Mark so make hay while the sun shines (when the snows gone) take care mate 👍
@@djbgatekeeper haha yes I agree it's snowing here in Poole at the moment !!
Sharp presentation with a unique perspective concerning the overall evaluation of the KAW !!!
have got a zx6r on a 2001 plate great video review
Great thanks Mark :)
Have just bought one of these bikes
Hi mark, I just want to ask a very quick question if possible I will be very grateful for your reply. I passed my test in the summer last year. And I purchased Kawasaki Ninja 650 krt
Now I’m used to riding the 650 and I was wondering is there a massive difference between the ninja 650 and then ninja 636 that you’re riding
I know it’s faster and got my half power but I suppose the big question is is it a lot harder to ride it
David 😊
Hi David well it's not any harder to ride ...only more extreme on the wrists riding position but that all makes sense when you are riding in the zone ,So to speak ,it's definitely not as good as an all-rounder as your 650 ,yours is nice and comfortable and relatively high clip on bars ,the 636 is a focused bike which really needs a fast ride to get the best of it ,not really a bike to potter arround on ,yours is happy at 50 /60 mph ,that being said the performance is electrifying and utterly screams to 15 k rpm with it's 115 wrhp ... highly recommend it
All the best mark
I'm looking to move up from a 300 ninja... is that an okay jump?
youll be fine ,,it will have lots more power though :) enjoy it all the best mark
I see you are really trying hard to keep it low in the rev band, being a brand new bike, lol.
I would imagine that after the break-in period you would be revving that thing out before shifting up, so you could enjoy the power band much more !
Is this okay as a first bike, I took my CBT/DAS on a 600cc and felt fine even though I've never drove a motorcycle before and didn't want to seem to jump the gun. Any response to this would be much appreciated
No wouldn't recommend this as a first bike ,get something like a z650 or cb650f first ,then after a year or two this would be fine all the best mark
Get one just like take it easy on the throttle. I started on a 1000 .
Just respect the bike and ride safely you will be okay. Don’t spend money you really can’t afford. Just get it.
Start riding somewhere that’s not too busy and you’ll get the hang of it in two days. Just be patient and safe
Just a quick question, I'm a beginner rider with only a few hours of riding experience. I'm going to be purchasing a Kawasaki ninja 400 for my first bike and I plan to upgrade to a ZX-6R after acquiring 4-6 months of riding experience. Is this something you would recommend?
Hi ,you should be ok ,just make sure you get as much riding in as you can in your first six months ,the zx6r has huge power compared to the 400,and it's riding position is quite racy ,just take it steady and you should be fine good luck mark
Just watched a video on another one of these,seen really nice but there very quite tho,I’d need to upgrade the exhaust
Very nice video cheers
Thanks sim all the best mark
Excellent review, settled my debate for either the R6 or this 636 ninja! Quick question, the KRT edition is that just the decals and colours?
Hi yes it is 😀
Awesome thought so! Thanks mark
i love the way you spell "kawazacki"
Would you recommend it as an everyday bike considering I do average 60 miles per day? (And a wee bit of potholes in a small part of it)
Hi bugrahan,yes you could use it for that no problem ,and boy what an exciting ride !,but if your not into excitement so much and want a bit more practical for commuting etc you might want to look at something like an versys 650 which is more upright ,all the best mark
@@markpulling12 Excitement is what I'm after :) afterall my car is there if I need just to go from A to B :)
@@markpulling12 Guess I'll go with the new cbr650r :) Thank you very much.
If an everyday bike is what you want and you have quite the commute I would say any of the 600cc nakeds would do you well. More comfortable riding position, still great performance, and more torque on take off if you have a lot of lights on your commute and for passing ease(not saying a Supersport wouldn't be as engaging and badass)
@@diamondheat9 Sold my ST 765 R as I got bored and no fairings sucked in highway... Thank you very much for the suggestion though.
Hi Mark.
I’m a big fan of your reviews and I would greatly appreciate your opinion. I have been away from riding for 10+ years and would like to get something sporty again for the road and occasional track day. I used to ride an Aprilia RS250 and then a GSXR 600 in my youth and loved them. I’m now torn between the CBR650R and the 636. Both bikes look amazing and I enjoyed your reviews, but I’m not sure if the CBR650 is just lacking the overtaking power for a spirited ride with friends to Wales for example.
I understand the 636 has a low power mode that could benefit me whilst I start my learning curve again although I don’t think it will take too long to get back into the swing of riding.
Your thought please Mark if you could spare a moment to let me know your thoughts on the Honda.
Thanks Mark.
Hi Richard if you've ridden a gsxr then you should be fine with the Ninja 636 it's similar,I'm 50 next year and I'm off to Wales for the day next week on it :) ps I own one now. Performance wise compared to the Honda it's night and day the Honda has 85 ish bhp the Ninja has 115 bhp at the rear wheel ,plus the overall feel of the Kawasaki is way better but then it's £2k more money ,the Honda is good value ,built a bit to a price in Thailand I believe but if you can afford it I'd 100% say go for the Kawasaki ,try and get demos if you can ,if your local try Bournemouth Honda and Kawasaki cheers mark
Thanks for the advise Mark. I’m 5’8” tall and similar age to yourself so I really appreciate your advice. I’m near Stafford so I will check out the local dealer soon and see if I can get a test ride.
Enjoy your ride to Wales and ride safe.
Thanks again Mark.
Great review. Makes me wanna add the ZX6R to my stable of one...Ninja 650 🤪
I had a Ninja 650 and hated it. Years of 4 cylinders before that though. After 5 years of not bothering to ride it because it was so boring I bought a ZX6R and love it. Swap the slow, horrible sounding parallel twin for a smooth, high revving 4, you won't be disappointed!
@@MyMednas Great idea. I’m actually thinking ZX10R 💪🏽
Sorry but how comes the gears are going up by its self when you're accelerating plus you're not even pressing the clutch at all, but when you're slowing down, you're pressing the clutch? Is the 636cc automatic? Sorry I don't make sense here
Hi alec ,it has a quickshifter on the up change ,I'm changing gear with my foot but you don't need to use the clutch ....a truly great invention :)
@@markpulling12 oh ok then, thank you for explaining that to me, appreciate it. Also but what about when you slow down? Do you also click down the gears without pressing the clutch lever or do you have to press it whilst slowing down?? I have to wait until I'm 24 to take my A licence and I'm only 21, so a long time to go. Or i could take it now, seeing that I already passed my A2 at 19 lol
@@Clarkkent163 yes you have to use the clutch for downshifting when you slow down ,but some bikes have a quickshifter for the down change as well ,the ninja only has it for the up change , good luck with your license All the best mark
Just thought I’d log on for my daily fix.
This has been the longest 3 weeks of my life waiting until September 1 when get mine.
Haha I know that feeling exactly David not too long now :)
And she’s here. 2 weeks later I’m halfway through running it in.
Still being sensible and in Low Power mode until it’s been serviced. No, I can’t go anymore than 60 on the motorway but there’s a lot of fun to be had so far on the twisty stuff.
Got mine in Black btw. Looks awesome
nice one david ,i was starting to open mine up a bit more when i got to 300 miles,its better to vary the revs while running in , ,ive done 2500 miles on mine amazing bike ,what a great noise it makes :)
Mark, would you say on road riding this is as quick as a KTM 890 Duke R?
Hi Andrew I'd say it's about the same quickness on the road ...same sort of power but you need to rev the ninja higher.. .. cheers mark
@@markpulling12 Thanks Mark, I own a new Ducati Monster 937 so wondered if it would be similar, mine is as quick as the KTM, power comes in a bit earlier on mine. If the Kawasaki had a blipper I would have been interested before I bought mine
My dream bike
I'm about the same age as you and wondered how your wrists cope with the aggressive position. Sat on one today and immediately thought ouch!
Hi Matt ,I initially thought the same but as I own one of these now I found your body and muscles adapts to it ,it's no tourer but I can ride it comfortably up to two hours ,it's so much fun you don't really mind :).
@@markpulling12 yeah your 636 in the krt colours is absolutely stunning. I love the sheer grunt of my z1000sx but love the looks of the zx6r, decisions decisions!
Does it has the same kick as the street triple rs??
Hi sanket, i believe the street triple rs is something like 120 hp and the zx is 130 hp claimed ,the triumph is going to have more pull low down as its a bigger engine but i would have thought they would both be similar ish at the top end with the zx reving higher all the best mark
the clutch is hydraulic or plain ones?
It's a plain cable clutch max
I would never get a sports bike, purely because I do not trust myself on one. But damn that is a good one.
Rachid Khamlichi I said the same thing about myself for years. Now as an adult and Commercial License driver I am more mature at least or I think I am. That being said I still opted for a Ninja 300 as my first bike even over the 400 as the price was a steal.
Hi mark
I’m 5’5”, would I fit on this and flat foot?
Hi Tom depends on your inside leg measurement ....if you are say 30 " then yes but if you are say 27/28 then you'll be on tip toes but you could always get it lowered by 30 mm
Cheers mark
Iam going to buy an ultimate track day weapon!!
Everyone suggest me to go for Daytona..
What's your suggestions??
daytona 675 is an awesome bike but if you are just using for the track ANY sports 600 will be fine r6,cbr zx6 as its down to the rider skill ..if its also for the road get a ninja 636 they are brilliant all the best mark
Can you do a Review on the 19 gsx-r 750 and compare both I'm in the market and can't decide.
Hi Candace Suzuki discontinued the gsxr600/750 a few years ago now ,I've ridden both and they compare very strongly to the ninja,the 750 is amazing ,if you could find a mint 750 it Should be very good value All the best mark
How does it perform on the right side of the road?
Haha lol
So ive owned a few cruisers and now I'm looking at the sport bikes. Grew up on dirt bikes and atv's also. I really dont want to drop money on a begginer sport bike just to drop more money in a year on the bike I actually want. With my previous experience as long as I approach this bike with respect and pace myself would you consider someone like me able to ride this bike?
Yes definitely as you have good experience ,only thing I will say you will probably find the riding position extreme to say the least after a cruiser so definitely sit on one in the dealership and demo for at least an hour or so ,you generally do become ride fit to sports bikes as your muscles get used to it , failing all that maybe something like a cbr650 where the clip on bars are on top if the yokes rather than under as the Ninja has ,you will find it more comfortable All the best mark

-No it's "Mark Pulling !
Which do you think is better, zx6r or r6?
Hi Johnny ,well the r6 is alot more expensive,it has less power especially at low rpms where you really need it ,so I'd say the zx6r ,that's why I've got one lol All the best mark
Hi vlogger! does it has slipper clutch ?
Hi travis yes it does !
@@markpulling12 ohh great! 👍😊 thank you so much!! I'm planning to get that bike😍😍
@@hartwinfritz me too !! It also has something called clutch assist which gives it a lighter feel
Love you videos. I have a question. Can a height 5'2 ride a bike like that?
Hi ...I think you will be on tip toes at 5 ft 2 ..you could get it lowered a bit ...or have a look at the ninja 650 which is much lower cheer's mark
@@markpulling12 thanks. I will look into the ninja 650.
Is this bike A2 compliant with a restrictor?
No it isn't but the Ninja 650 is
Beautiful bike would performance improve with small end can ?
Hi mp. You would get a few BHP extra across the range ,but you wouldn't really notice it .... mainly for the better sound and looks regards mark
mark pulling many thanks
how tall are you ? great review!
Hi as said in the beginning of video ,im 5ft 7in all the best mark
@@markpulling12 oh, sorry I missed it, thx! do you know anyone owning this bike being around 6.2-ish tall? wondering if this beauty can be handled by taller people
Hi ,youll be fine at 6ft2 to ride this but i expect youll need to get off after an hour or two,to stretch your legs a bit,but then most people will on sports bikes like this ,they arent really for long stints in the saddle,all the best mark
ZX-6R. Good Bike.
Call me psychic but I have a feeling your going to buy one of these for yourself one day 🤔
Haha Alan see my latest video !!!!
looks like my 400.
kawasaki dashboards are the best.
It looks like my moped too ???
5:22 i thought you said "no tingles to the balls" 🤣. Quick question. Does the quickshifter work when you shift up while the throttle is closed?
Hi greg, yes it does but its not quite as slick ,its meant to be used with wide open throttle all the best mark
O we CAN hear the engine alright! 👌
sounds amazing neil on full throttle :)
