Q for the 09/10 zx6 owners

Post by ttc »

Chris bought the demo zx6 home tonight and I went to sit on it when I got home..
And the frame was so bloody hot I thought my leg was going to get burnt..

Any people who own one have this issue? Would my legs get burnt commuting to work at the lights?

Hey Tanya

Only had mine for approx 500 kays so far. My Gumby used to get REALLY warm on the frame. The new 6 not as much with some Sydney city commuting involved. Once moving she cools down straight away. At the lights she does get warm but I sit to adjust to it. So in all honesty no I wouldn't think it a major issue.

PS red_dave over my shoulder says "its your loins burning to get back on a 6"

Owned 09 zx6 for a year and a half now, 20,000km and never had any issues with heat on my legs.
