Mr Fro Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 What year & spec? I've got a CG I would consider swapping - it's not quite as quick as the Ninja so you should get on alright with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Richzx6r Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I have a ninja636 I'd swap i would be interested So you are saying you bought a zzr600 from 1997/8 and you aren't getting on with it because it's too fast....how will you be able to get along with a sports bike that is sub 3 seconds 0 to 60 and that will pull 30 to 140+ in 4th gear?? I thought you wanted something slower than the zzr600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Richzx6r Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 It’ll goes as fast or slow as you want it to go . That is very true....yes a hayabusa can do 200 odd mph but only if you really wind it on.At tourer I'd suggest better throttle control is the order of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimR Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Right so you have a zzr600 ( badged as a zx6 ninja in other countries so its either an import or has replaced panels)or do you have a zx6r ? and you want to swap for a tourer style zzr600 is a decent sports tourer so no point swapping for a zx636 as that is the ramped up version of the bike you have .best thing to do is sell your bike and then buy what you desire rather than swapping as face it ... zzr600 at that age require a lot of refurb. Shocks are normally gone , suspension bushes/bearings are shot , valves need shimming .So you are not going to get a great bike in return as a swap .

TimR Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 as a suggestion for a bike to look for that is not too excessive but will transport you miles and miles is a Honda Deauville either the 650 or 700 .built in panniers and fully faired and shaft drive for touring .and it may have a dullsville reputation but they fill a huge gap in the market .

Guest Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Having owned and ridden a Deauville for 5 years and many thousands of miles around Europe on it - I would deffo agree - the 700 will cruise at 80 all day if you wish or tootle along at 30 or 40 - carry all the luggage you would need and a pillion too should you so desire. Also give good MPG - just saying!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
