b1h zx636r or c1h zx10r

[angry mike]

Hi, if you've used either of these bikes (not the newest shapes) then please enlighten me on what you think. not much else to say really but now i've sold my zxr400 its time to go big!
regards...

we had a b1h 636 for a while, and i loved it. twitchy as f*ck, rock hard proper kwacka bike - pity they changed it after this model.good fun. only things i did'nt like was the useless digital rev counter, and the cheapo fasteners, etc. that rust far to fast... and ours bent in half after a low(ish) speed crash

[masterofinsanity]

not ridden any of em but my mates just sold his b1h zx6 i love the end can on them, sweeps up and out a bit lovely!!

[wonderpupp]

go for the 636r. In black. They are cool.

What would you do with a zx10r that you couldn't on a 6? (day to day...)

[rene]

did insrance quotes on both and for a 636 it was about £780 a year and £540 a year for a zx10r

so purly for financial reasons id have to go for the 10r

[superman]

why would it be cheaper to insure a 10r than a 6?????????????????

[rene]

because the 6 is more a young riders bike, so it gets crash more thus more claims. As the 10 is more a weekend worriors bike who dos 4 miles a year and is to scared to go over 4,000rpm.

thats my guess anyway. Eaither way its cheaper to insure a 10 than a 6 for me

[superman]

lol it just makes no sence at all does it odd indeed. so now all the boy recers will get a 10r an crash on a faster bike. its like when they underpriced scoobys for the insurance

[wonderpupp]

yeah, that's probably my fault - I did 3 no fault claims on my ZX636R. Lol. obviously bright green is a distracting colour...

[superman]

lol dam youuuuu wreckin it for young guys like me who ride by the rules of the road im still deciding on my next beast as it goes. im gona try a different make i think but ill probly come back to a kwak in the end.

[angry mike]

im 19, full licence and just got quotes for zx10r - 05 full comp for 800 quid. zx636r - 05 full comp for 1100 quid. gsxr 750k6 full comp for 900 quid so that made me think...
so i can have any bike i want and bearing in mind the roads on the isle of wight are toad, perhaps a zx10 would be uncontrollable and i doubt i could use what its got. so...

call me a traitor but i think i'm going for a gsxr 750k6. i'll miss the kwaks but its an excellent happy medium for where i live. and god help me with the jump from my zxr400 to that!!!

[superman]

i hear good things about them so i wouldnt regret it mate. im sure you will love it.

[Caz]

call me a traitor but i think i'm going for a gsxr 750k6.

you wont regret it, you get the wonderful suzuki fuel injection and gear box
I had a good test run on the K6 gixxer 600 and it was an awesome machine. Suspension was too stiff for the road tho

[rene]

the 750 is ment to be a much better bike than the 600 as well using more of the 1000cc better quility parts, i really fancy one myself!

Fancy a SXV soooo much more tho

[angry mike]

hmmm. just gotta find one for 5 grand now...
