ok i can get an 04 r6 or an 03 636 for the same price both have clean titles, the r6 has dirt bars and a sick cage but the subframe is all broke to ****, the 636 is bone stock but overheats with just normal riding,changed the thermostate and cap, not that. and wont know unless i buy it, looking for ppl that kinda know there **** for advise, i know this is a squid as **** question but i cant decide what one, they are both cheap as **** but and only afford one

 

i'm a squid but you'll be kicking yourself in the *** if you don't cop that 636 over the R6

 

was the fluid full in the 636?? could be empty... maybe thats why it was overheating??

 

ya but some ppl are saying that the r6 is a sick bike when you beef up the subframe i think Neil got one and said its the ****, on the other hand 636 is a proven stunter. This is why i cant decide

 

na i went threw it for a buddy and i couldnt find anything wrong but i never broke into the water pump either

 

prob the water pump bro

 

is that common??? i got a buddy that blew his 636 up a few weeks ago so i could steal his.

 

it happens on them sometimes. one of my buddie's water pump just went out.

that r6 is gona get transmission prob's eventually, there renoun for that

 

i knew the older r6 trannys were garbage but i thought the new were fine, is it a big job to do a water pump???

 

the 636 might just have some air in the cooling system, doesnt take much to cause a major overheating issue. as for the r6 having transmission problems, ive never heard that at all and ive owned 2 of these. my 03 i put 42000 miles on and beat the **** out of that thing rarely ever changing the oil and it never had any shifting problems. nor does my 05 which has around 13000 miles on it now. both great bikes imo. cant go wrong with either one really.

 

636 can only be 3 things, pump, therm, rad. or an extreme case some chit clogged up water ports in the head.

i got a waterpump if you deside to get the 636

 

Check to make sure the system on the 636 purged. If their no air possible could be the water pump. Last but not least if their is still little bubbles in the coolant system your probably popped the head gasket

 

no air in the system, been draind and filled 3 time. no water in oil either

 

dude i have a 05 r6 and love it, all you got to do is get the sick subframe and your good. The r6 makes more power in low rpm, so you can lug it at 2mph and wont die. Also it is pretty light as well. So get the ******* r6 and that's it.

 

I agree^^^ get the r6... i love my 05 and wouldnt trade it for ANYTHING...and to the tranny prob. i thought my tranny went once and my buddy from MMI said it was toast... then we changed the oil and it was mint again...

 

+1.636 are ******* sweet.But the newest r6 are killer and look good stunted.

 

lol get the r6 and trade me for my 636 i love my r6 and am still kicking my self in the *** for trading it

 

be glad you traded for the 636 the r6 blew up a month after i got it

 

i've worked on multiple r6's w/ tranny probs

 

then i guess i should be glad i got an r6 instaed of another 636 cuz my friend blew up his 636 a month after he got his

maybe you know too many ppl who dont know how to shift
