hey everyone im looking to buy a bike and was just wondering everyones take between the 2 bikes

 

The Cbr F4i

 

what year?

 

brand new

 

I'D go with the R6,but the class is so close it depends on what you like.

 

yamaha fans will say R6, Kawasaki fans will say the zx6r... see if u can take a spin on both and see what u like...

and i have an 05 r6 but i hear the frames are weaker since (03+) because they made the frame stiffer but subsequently weaker... dont know about problems with the kawasaki but year, if u plan on stunting heavily the R6's frames are weaker than the average bike

 

for stunting??? 636

acctually 636 for any purpose...

 

In this case I ask what type of riding do you HONESTLY plan on doing. Two, pick up any number of bike mags out there with a 600 shootout to get all the info you need and plenty you don't(specs coming out your eyeballs). Three from what I have read, both bikes are great and like all have different characteristics. Go to the local shop, sit on em, see which is more comfortable for YOU, see who has demo days and go for a spin.

To ask someone else what bike to get is not the greatest idea, you want to buy the bike YOU want, not what someone else wants right. Be cool :YEAH

 

ZX-6R is better in my opinion

 

I am a Yamaha fan owned a 01 R6 and currently own a 03 R6 and a ZX6R 636

And even though Ive always been a Yamaha fan Id say the 636 is the one and I used to hate Kawi. Actually I do hate them all of them except this one new 636 is growing on me but I like the 03-04.

Quality fit and finish wise the R6 is better and thats what used to be important to me. Now I stunt and have a different mind set ZX6R is a kick *** bike stunting or not........even though its not as pretty when it comes down to fit and finish.

R6 is a really easy bike to wheelie thought I find it easier to manipulate that bike ZX6R takes more body language for sit downs.

 

R6!!!!!!!!!

 

I actually like the 636, but the overall fit and finish is waaaaay better on the R6. For overall street riding, I'd go with the R6. For straight bashing, go with the 636.

 

i would go with the r6 but its all in what you like.

 

the 05 636 is the best 600 class bike this year. and yet I bought an 05 F4i... go figure.

 

p.s. if you care the 636 has a slipper clutch that the R6 dosen't have.

 

^^ i could strare at ure avatar for days .

 

you mean anti-hopping clutch, right?

 

Don't buy a brand new bike for your fisrt bike. New minty bikes are for people with too much money. You WILL drop your first bike. Save yourself some money and get somethign a few years old. Get something new once you're good and ready. Maybe never. Remember-the guy taking the bike off the lot is losing the most money.
P.S. If this isn't your first bike and/or you have lots of extra money to burn please disregard the above comments.

 

I'd go with 04 636 would be cheaper and great all around bike and it's the bomb for stunting and so far it's held up great!

 

ask Kyle from PBZ.. he would say 636 and he knows what is he talkin about
