hey guys, quck question. in the process of rebadging were the ergos relaxed a bit?

Every thing i've read on the zzr600 states how comfortable the bike is (classified as sports-tourer) but i also remember reading how the 6r was aggressive (being *the* 600 for kawi at the time).

i dont think i've read anything that states the ergos were changed, but it does in fact seem that they were. just looking for confirmation.

thanks!

I have been studying this for a couple weeks looking to trade in my 05 ZX6R for the 07 ZZR (basically the same as the 00-02 ZX6R). Seems to be identical in every dimension 'tween the old school 00-02 ZX6R J model and the 05/06 ZZR. I do hope they juggled the suspension damping rates a bit though! Check out the Kawi manufacturers site for specs and parts diagrams for both years

Same bike just rebadged It is comfortable. Do some searches in the old school forum.

00-02 6R is not very aggressive at all, unlike the 03-04 636 which is much more aggressive... The 05-06 is in between, but I feel a bit closer to the 00-02... Definately not as comfy tho... Did a weekend trip to Cape May with my girl and we took the 01 down, neither of us were ready to take the 06 on a long trip (300+ miles)...

the 02 6R was the most comfortable 600 that year. It's certainly comfortable for a race bike, but it's not as comfortable as say a a real touring bike.

I've ridden mine over 8 hours in a day with no complaints.
