1998 Kawasaki ZX-6R review from United States of America
"One of the best all around bikes to buy"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
The chain and sprockets.
General comments?
The motorcycle shifts nice and performs very well.
I can stay on the 04 R6 and ZX-636 ass without falling behind.
The seat gets very uncomfortable after a while.
Pulls up second gear wheelies no problem.
Third gear wheelies are a little more of a challenge.
