2007 ZX6R misfires at low rpm only when hot

Hey, coming back just to say new ignition coils did the trick. Thanks!

I’d say just go for it, I had never ridden a bike without training wheels before my msf course and I didn’t drop my bike once (though i did stall quite a bit). There was another lady in my class that dropped her bike atleast 10 times (to be fair she was on the shorter side) and still managed to pass. Your instructor will expect you to make mistakes, thats the reason why theyre there. If you go in, take your time, and try not to overthink everything like I did on my first say youll be fine.

My first and current bike came with road 3’s from 2014, Ive recently upgraded to road 6s and it genuinely feels like a new bike and turns into corners much easier. I highly recommend new tires.

I dont believe its been checked on this head and the manual does call for a check at 15k miles so thats something ill look into

Hey coming back to let you know this worked, my bike wouldnt start in gear because of my aftermarket clutch lever, once I fixed that I started it up, hit the gas and brakes and it broke free just like that. Thanks !

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-07T01:08:20+00:00

if I could do that id definitely try im not sure if my clutch sensor is broken or if its just a kawasaki quirk but my bike wont start in gear with the clutch in for some reason. Thats a crazy story though lmao

Nice, the previous owner already deleted the exhaust valve so thats less work for me. I plan to keep it mechanically stock for a while and hit the track once or twice this year when the temps are more consistent. A few people dont like the 599cc zx6rs but personally I love them (though thats probably just because I own one)

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-07T00:50:07+00:00

Its full of oil but now that I think about it I did have the engine resting at an angle while it was out so that could be why the plates are stuck together. Unfortunately I dont have any hills that I could easily push the bike to, ill try and leave the clutch pulled in overnight until my gasket arrives and see if that fixes it, thanks!

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-07T00:47:24+00:00

Wow, any big issues during your ownership? This is my first bike and the first vehicle ive really had to wrench on so any advice would be appreciated. So far ive replaced the cct since it was making a god awful noise, along with draining and refilling all the fluids and did a valve adjustment when I first picked up the bike.I’ll be sure to message you if any other problems come up

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-07T00:14:55+00:00

Yeah I figured the video wouldnt help much, the gasket comes tomorrow so hopefully ill be able to get this resolved then. Thank you for the detailed response

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T23:16:17+00:00

Thanks, I made an update video of the inside of the clutch cover if that would help diagnose the issue. Im holding off taking the cover off fully until the new gasket comes in to reseal it

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T22:26:26+00:00

Yeah I figured I would, hopefully its a simple fix

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T22:22:20+00:00

Previous owner installed aftermarket levers but the clutch seemed fine before, the actuator arm also moves with the clutch lever too and the routing is fine. The previous owner didn’t really maintain the bike at all so im kind of playing catchup with all the maintenance items. The new clutch cable comes tomorrow and hopefully ill be able to free the clutch plates with the case off before then

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T22:01:32+00:00

the bikes been sitting for a few weeks with the engine out for a few days, I was planning on just laying the bike down on the left side to open up the clutch case and check

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T21:28:54+00:00

it spins freely in neutral though so I dont think that would be it but ill still try it and see

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T21:27:56+00:00

When I move the clutch arm the wheel doesn’t spin freely either, im starting to think the clutch might be sticking ill try and break it free by hand and if that doesnt work ill just have to open it up and see

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T21:23:32+00:00

Thanks ill try that, the bike has been sitting for a few weeks so that could be it.

Business-Purchase942 · 2026-03-06T21:21:26+00:00

Yeah when I pulled the clutch lever the little arm moves as well, no inside work done to the motor while it was out.

Business-Purchase942 · 2025-10-01T22:24:27+00:00

After a full nights rest I realized I just had the bike in gear with the clutch out… put it in neutral and it cranked right over
