Damn that green looks extra good on the isle of man!

Why'd they show a messy chewed up tyre at the end??

Not sure if that's good or bad.

Having a further sticky beak, they didn't put the exhaust servo butterfly in the mid muffler chamber like they did on the 10, makes an after market slip on swap a whole lot easier and don't have worry about FI light.

That OEM exhaust will be the first thing to be chucked off not forgetting the addition of a dangerous fender eliminator!

Are 3 different power modes on a 6 needed?



Still wont say no to one, tis version better!

Depending on what the profiles are the 3 different power modes could be aimed at learners in non-Lams countries.

A learner could 'protect' themselves from the power as they develop their confidence, and It would make the 600 ninja stand out amongst the other 600's.

11+ Gixxer 600 has power mode toggle switch as well, so they really following suit.

Isn't a rider better off being taught how to apply throttle control as opposed to having an electronic device physically restrict them.

On the amcn test I did.
I rode the versys 1000 on low power. For about 2 corners.

Thought fuck that! And put it back to full.
It's a de-tuned z1000 engine.

It's there to sell bikes, not to teach people how to ride.

Whatever angle you put on it you can't deny 100+ hp is a head f"*% for a learner, that's why we have the lams scheme because the chances of hurt go up very quickly.

blackster how do the 2013 636 stats compare to the previous and last 636 the 2006 model, have they refreashed this motor or would it be a new design?

Maybe they know fitzy will be looking to upgrade soon

Not from official site

2006 Ninja 636

Max Power 96 kW @ 14000 rpm
Max Torque 71 Nm @ 11500 rpm
Dry weight 164kg
Wet weight ?

surely it wouldnt be same power as 2006.

having ridden a 2006 and 2009 on the track, the 2009 is much faster on the straight bits.

Doubt we are looking at comparable figures. 09 is heaps quicker than the old 636
