Do Ninja's have to be green, cause I have fallen in love with the pearl white one.

Nope . All my old GPZ's were predominantly Red.
Had a white /gold GPX .
The Zx6 is my first green kwaker :)
636 Nice an't they .Did the rattle from the steering damper put you off ?

Good choice . Its an impressive bike .Deceptively fast ;).
I like the 06 under seat look . But the new bike is noticeably better.Smooth and pulls well even out of its power band (handy when you fudge a corner ;) ).

Yeah, I love how comfy it is too. Sat on the 2013 model. Might have to look at getting one next year

had a ride of an underseat exhaust model before my latest medical 'incident' and i thought the ride position was more comfortable than my sv (but then i have got rearsets on it that are jacked up very high and a long way back!). as for your question on colour, yes they do, though i do think that one looks excellent and pookies one in orange is great, but i'd still have to have a green one!!

Yeah I like the orange ones too, but the white looks even better in person. Are the underseat models 636?

I think the predecessor to the p7f ( 599cc) had an under seat exhaust ( c6f )

Criggers
17-01-13, 08:22 AM
It's the 599 08 reg ones. Hopefully spot one on biketrader that someone has put a slip on, on

pookie
17-01-13, 08:32 AM
yep p7f - 07
p8f - 08
both 599cc

and

c6f - 636cc ?

Criggers
17-01-13, 08:34 AM

This is true, but like all British made things, they're more expensive than the Japanese child labour.

I agree about the under seat exhaust but compared to the new standard pipes on most new bikes it's hardly visible

Go and see one at your dealer.

I've got the old model and have to say, the new one has the neatest side exhaust off all.

Fantastic looking bike.

Not that its going to stay like that long .
Pass me the Angle grinder and an Akrapovic
Think the exhust thing stems from this back in 1992!

Listen to this, Laurie is making sense.

Fallout tells me that doesn't happen often - don't let it go to waste.

People move out the way for a green bike more than the blue or red .Well on the A12 ;)
