I looked around the web but couldn't find it...is the 02 636 fuel injected? The specs say fuel is delivered through Makuni "K-Tric" but I think that is part of the throttle or pump.

The reason I am asking is that a guy I know does vehicle reconstruction and a guy didn't have the money to pay him so he give him a 2002 Kawi 636 that was laid down lightly. He wants to sell it to me for 500. Forks and frame are straight and are in good condition. He has the title but I'm not sure if it's an R Title or if it's clean. Needs left rear set, plastics and nose are messed up a bit, chain is rusty from the bike sitting but it turns over. I would offer him less & I think it might be worth it even if I just part it out. Is it FI?

It was a very rare model, only one was ever produced!!

DOKE

Come on, Mike I know you know the answer. Is it FI?

I just called him again and he said it IS a 636 so I don't understand what you mean Mike.

Edit: read your post Compton, thank you. That doesn't say if it's FI or not though. Anybody know?

I dont know much about the 02 636s, but I THINK that they just took the 600 motors they had and bored them out to a 636. I would be willing to bet they are carbed, but without searching Im not 100%

In 2002 they had carbs. Were all 2002 ZX6Rs 636 ccs?

Compton82

No. I think most of the 636 versions were overseas with the US only getting a handful.

DOKE

I'm going to have to drive over there after work and check it out for myself. I highly doubt he has a European version there. It's got to be 599cc displacement. Might still be worth buying to part it out.

DOKE

Thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it.

MikeM

if it runs, 500 is a good price for almost anything

you beat me i was gonna say that same ******* thing wait a min they really have a 02 636 i thought they were only 03 to 06

Zuki750

You should read the rest of the thread. They do exist.

old man roger

yup they got them in england and they are carburated

DOKE

Ok, I went back last night to look at the bike and just to give all of you that final word on this...it is NOT a 636. It's a zx6r 599cc. I can't explain why it says "636" on the fairings though. It doesn't look like they were just slapped on by someone. Maybe the previous owner bought ebay fairings from the UK or something. Stranger things have happened.

Thanks again for the help guys.

its a carb bike, but then again so are a ton of other bikes 2002 and before.
you can still kill it on a carburated bike, but FI is prefered and more of a standard nowa days, but that mean that a carb bike is a POS
