636 again? :excited

05/06 body style was the best before Kawi designers discovered some good drugs.

On that note, 2012 Zx10 looks very much like R6

So they just change the bike’s designation to 636 but with 599 displacement (kind of stupid) or actually going to be a 636?

God I hope its ACTUALLY a 636 if that’s what they will be advertising. I feel like it will make classics like mine far less significant.

If they completely want no one to race their 2013 machine, then the 636 displacement will be useful for sales, and that is the reason I asked or they pull another 599cc “636” special so people can still race them…
