What I like about these 600s is you never need to thrash them as they have loads of low-end grunt and the spacings between the cylinders are quite generous so unlikely to blow head gaskets. With regular oil changes, 100000 miles should be achieved easily. I love my ZZR600 and the engine is one of the best I've come across.
Sweet!! I’m currently restoring one of these as the previous owner left it sitting for years. I’ll be stripping, cleaning and rebuilding the carb this week. I’ll see how fast I can get it to go when it’s up and running again 😁
I owned a Ninja 600R back in 1985 and got radar'd doing 153mph by an Alaska State Trooper. The engine still had 1500rpm to go before redline, and the engine produced power and pulled to 1000 rpm past redline (maybe more, I never took it there in 6th gear). I'm absolutely sure 157 to 160 mph was possible, possibly more. They are great bikes.
I've got a 2002 ZX6R with every bolt on except a full header back exhaust and 20K miles. Tonight I hit 176 on the speedometer, its off by ~6-7mph because I'm up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket. I run out of gear at 176mph(169mph corrected).
what year is your bike i got a 93 zx6 and mines only marked at 160mph course im a chicken shit and wont do much more than 125 lol and i will say this is the first vid i found where the gauges arent marked in kmh loving it was that a cold start too?
I have exact the same ninja 600 m.y. 2000 color: green lizard of cource :P perfect bike(i maintain it completely stock no need to change ;) ) (Y) ; I push it only a bit further in speed :D

sounds like someone missed a shift on the straight stretch
Nice!! I have a 2007 ZZR 600, which is basically this bikes identical twin and there is nothing like that carb'ed, air induction howl!!
There's nothing like a fuel injected 2005 ZX-6R.
awesome vid man, you got some balls i've only hit 135mph so far on a 750 VFR and i felt scared, giddy, and awesome all at the same time
you SO lucky... i dont habe a straight like that anywhere haha. i hit 170 flat on the speedo once... 45k miles in shr can still push those horses^^!♡

I have a 98 its my starter bike. I hit 120 my 3rd day riding easily hit 140 only @ 11.5k rpm before I let off due to traffic ahead
takes seroius balls to go that fast
i need opinions for 1985 ninja 600. is good bike. Any problems?
Yes
Hey man i have this same bike, when idling and its making sort of a "chug chug chug" noise.. that normal cause mine does it too ?
Im curious what his actual (gps) speed was. anywhere from 130 lowball to the 164
What year is the bike ?
what year?
What type of exhaust did you have
i got a 1994 zx6r, currently geared low 14/43, need to change them back to stock 15/39
These 600s last for years. 100000 miles shouldn't be hard to achieve.
you would crap your pants before you fired the bike up.
No, it's WHAT you got after the top speed run.
Also .. I'd love to see his insurance quote
oh wait.
What year?
damn, sounds like you ran out of gearing, not power. rekon you could hit 170 with different sprockets, and a few lil mods, exhaust etc?
14,000 rpm! god damn ddo u really need that many
I have never been that fast how did it feel
good going man

At least 200mph? You're mad.
@ballymoteboxer I would have said "Hey, ya are whatcha eat" lol

162 mph nice
No, it's what you WILL get.
Stock?

I got an 2002 zx6r an ive hit 155mph an dash says 170mph
well, if you got 12 grand go buy a busa
636 or 599?
599
Awesome
I've got the same one 02zx6r
Farts
he probably means 200 kph, that's about 120 mph :D
jonasv19 so your saying 113bhp can only go 120mph fail.
I have a 98 zx6e not r and I can downshift and hit 120 to pass semi trucks I have only been 140mph on it with 3.5k left till redline LOL
@@bb-ballistics1706 118hp* i have zx6r 2001. It can hit 270kmh. I think this is the top speed. Maybe it can go faster but i don't know.
Is this a 2000?
yeah j1 is the 2000 model mate
That wasn't a top speed run u could have gotten more out of it if u would have hit the red line
My CBR250RR hits the limiter at 20,000rpm lol
@pmealsable 2 times the charm!!!
Fastest I've gone on anime was 83 I maxed out my wr 450f
it hasnt got that many miles..... 19.5k isnt much at all! its ready for a big service but after that it will last thousandssssssss more!
that bike has a lot of miles on it
Yeah right, you haven't been on a bike in your life and you want a bike thats goes 200? HAH!
THIS IS TRUE TALK, AND THE GUY FROM THE VIDEO IS LIER.
thats stupid im 16 and im thinking starting with an DT LC and then moving up on the bikes
Won't go any faster? I'm sixteen I have money for a bike I want something that gets up at least 200mph.
Quiche
@GolfAlphaRomeo1 Yeah, have fun clipping a car at 150.
I have exact the same ninja 600 m.y. 2000 color: green lizard of cource :P perfect bike(i maintain it completely stock no need to change ;) ) (Y) ; I push it only a bit further in speed :D
