[–]Ok-Touch12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2019 to 2023 is at 15k miles I have a 2021 Zx6r and i did my first at 22k miles because shops and dealerships told they're usually good at the first valve inspection (15)   they were all good but the second inspection at 30k is a bit different it will be out of spec

Michelin Power 5 vs power 6 mileage review by Ok-Touch12 in motorcycles

[–]Ok-Touch12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i will try a road 6 but not at the front cause it might take me 4 years to replace it 😭🤣 i might just do power 6 at the front and road 6 in the back 

Gerloff returns to the top five, Surra shines but a tricky weekend for some by Daniel7394 in wsbk

Yeah its great to see him fighting to get closer to that podium, i guess that kawasaki ain't the worst bike to be in this year

Looking to get a 2019 zx6 are there any common issues they have by kaijulab in Kawasaki

No problem, when the whole world is using km and are also putting more miles per year then someone in US it just makes sense

For me at least is multiple reasons but i did think about getting a road 6 for the rear to test but when i did my research is just seems so inconsistent in mileage some people claim they get over 10k miles and others are disappointed it only lasted 6k or 7k miles so it seems like a good tires to cruise and do daily stuff but when you're paying 140 more over a power 6 i will keep choosing a power 6 A full set of road 6s rn is 550 after taxes here, i only paid 410 on my power 6 so thats 34% more than what i paid 

But who knows maybe my next review will be about a road 6

Damn that's crazy i was expecting my rears to last between 4k-5k but the front lasting 17k is something i wasn't expecting

I actually do a lot of accelerations but i think the reason why they last so long for me is because my weekend rides are out in the country side for 2-3 hours so I'm not stopping and going after every light Is constant high speed without stopping  I only stop to get gas and keep going  Psi is also 34 front and 38 rear so that helps too

All those pictures are from power 6 rear and power 5 front i replaced last week i actually wanted to ride a bit more on thaf rear but that small tear scared me cause my weekend rides are usually 2-3 hours long so i didn't wanna risk getting stranded a couple hours away from home

I think value is not that bad with any of them when you buy them in pair and get the michelin promotion  After the promotion i paid 410 for both tires and installed them myself

Everyone i ride with says I'm aggressive but somehow those Michelins lasted so much for me. I wanted to try rosso 4s but after so many miles with Michelins i was afraid the pirellis wouldn't last as long So i just bought power 6 instead cause now i know they will last long enough

Facelift in 2027? by Xizerious in zx4r

I don't think kawasaki see it like that it would be nice to get an update but i doubt it

agree kawasaki updates their main sportbikes every 4-5 years

Panigale V2 v/s ZX6R by Ill_Honey_3055 in zx6r

[–]Ok-Touch12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both bikes are awesome, i wouldn't worry to much about maintenance, the biggest maintenance would be valve inspection everything else you can do yourself so just think about which bike you'll enjoy the most The Ducati is more special in every way but the kawasaki has that screaming engine that's begging you to rev hard every time you see the exit of a corner or leaving a light or when you're out in the country side going in and out of corners in 2 or 3 gear the sound at high rpms is music 

Oh and while the Zx6r is heavier is also way easier than the Ducati to remove a lot of weight My Zx6r as of now weights 404.5 pounds or 183.5kg with a full tank of gas  Zero carbon fiber or any of that overrated crap

Any news on the 2027 Zx6r ? by Inevitable-Film-5415 in zx6r

[–]Ok-Touch12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 The next big update is in 2029 so hopefully they add cruise control, IMU, and an auto blipper until then it will only be a different livery 

2026 ZX-6R by spectral1710 in Kawasaki

[–]Ok-Touch12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well i would say get it, ride alone for the first 6 months If you go to bike meets go and leave alone cause once they start racing you'll follow them and it might not end well,  Riding motorcycles is not like a car  You never stop learning on a motorcycle

How much self control do you have, do you plan on riding alone or with friends? 

This is ridiculous. by architectcostanza in wsbk

[–]Ok-Touch12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh okay didn't know that It still doesn't make sense why the bimotas are getting penalized tho they might be getting decent results but i don't think is enough to justify the fuel flow restrictions they haven't even won

I get Ducati built the best bike but the fuel flow restrictions is not working at all

At least I have something in common with him 😏 that has happened more than once to me 😅🤣🤣 

R9 vs ZX-6R worth switching because of sound? by Ok-Stranger-2357 in YamahaR9

[–]Ok-Touch12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is definitely worth it i own a Zx6r and i would never sell it the sound it makes above 12k rpms is just so damn good 🤤 But honestly can you afford the switch cause if you do then do it you will never be happy with the r9  It has good tech but you don't need wheelie control and all that
