Everyone always says "Yammie hates Kawasaki" but in reality, YAMMIE HATES HONDA
I think a Honda salesman banged his mom or something.
Yammie has hated Honda
And I understand the bias. IMO the 2001-2012 model years 600/1000RR was the pinnacle of their bike production. In 2022, they just don’t hit the same way, and a lot of these videos trend toward newer model years.
Hondas are like civics. Stock or modded its a civic. Kawis are like the whole nissan lineup. Gtr? Skyline? Hmmm ❤️
MAY 12 2022 😲👍 thank you
As do I , you can't take a Honda seriously.. underpowered crap.. rather push my ZX than drive a Honda
i have a 2013 636 and after taking it to the track, riding tail of the dragon, and the cherohala skyway, i absolutely fell in love with it. the low end power yet punchy top end was able to keep up with a heavily modified R6 from a 50 roll (rider weight was only a small difference favoring me). Still has the power in the top end, and it appreciates being ripped open in 3rd gear coming out of a corner.
I daily a 03 636 I love it. its my first bike and its been good to me. I've learned oil and fluid change. chain adjustments, and soon to do brakes and throw on a new clutch lever. Some mornings are hard to get riding but as soon as I wake up I don't wanna stop at my work and just keep going all day. The low end power feels so smooth and strong and its so light for a 6ft 130lbs guy like myself! Bought it with a bigger sprocket and Yoshimura exhaust. I cruise in 4 to 6 rpms and as soon as I wanna rip it I already can! When I do drop a gear its another level! I find it rather comfortable than some might find it, I like being in an athletic stance so I'm fully in control. The low to mid end torque has saved me in a few situations and I feel very in control of the bike being its so small and agile!
Owned my 2022 KRT edition for a week, already hit 700 miles. It's addictive.
Dude I remember when I got my r7 like almost a thousand miles in two weeks
I've said it on just about every ZX6 video you've made, and I'll keep saying it until the dadgum thing arrives, but I ordered a 2022 in the Twilight Blue and I'm over 9000 meme levels of excited for the thing to arrive. Thanks to living in Utah I can put a full Akropovic exhaust on the thing and still ride it on the street :P Yammie vids are partly what motivated me to get one over the other bikes in the class (that and my dad hauling me around on his ZX-11 back in the day).
Alright, y’all really need to review a CBR 600RR
I (we?) need to know why you think it belongs in the rubbish bin. The F4i was a class leading runner. My 2008 600RR has one of the most comfortable ergo packages I’ve ever felt riding a sport bike on the street.
Love the Yam Fam, but come on, let’s get a real review for us Honda fans! It seems like the gutless, heavy 650R/F and 500R have tarnished the 600RR’s good name over the past 5-10 years.
He just hates Honda, I wonder if a Honda salesman banged him mom and never called again or something.
The cbr600rr just looks way better than any other bikes besides the r6 hands down and the power is damn good pretty much everywhere in any gear😂😂
@@michaeljackson6956
Yeah man, I just rode my friend’s R6 recently and it really doesn’t feel anything like my ‘08 600RR in the low range. It made the case why people feel like the 600 class are so slow when they haven’t ridden a 2000’s era RR or 636. I agree though, the R6 is one of the slickest lookers in the sportbike world.
+1 for Yammie to get a 07+ 600RR and do a proper review on the bike. I've never been on a sportbike that felt so confidence-inspiring from the very first ride.
I remember when the original Ninja came out. It was vilified more than any automobile in history.
when i was a little kid and knew nothing about bikes (26 now) everyone called sport bikes “ninjas.” people would always complain about “idiots on ninjas” regardless of what bike it was
@@jeremybarnes3921 people still do lol
I love my 2010 ZX6R! It's been laid down hard twice, but I got back together looking pretty and still rides and corners like a champ. I outgrew it in one riding season while riding with my hyabusa and GSXR 1000 friends , but I refuse to part with it. Looking at getting a hyabusa soon and will keep my ZX6.
My absolute favorite 600. Would absolutely love to put one in the garage. Fell in love with one quite a few years ago and the unhealthy obsession has only grown since then.
Same haha I’m close to pulling the trigger on buying one this summer
i currently have a dog slow 2015 honda shadow since march 2020 and actually test rode a 2021 zx6r back in like summer 2021. Ever since i rode it, i fell in love and regretted buying the shadow moments after the demo lol. i'm also tryna sell this so i can get me a squeaky clean 636 and keep it for the long term.
i can say tho the shadow made me step in the world of 2 wheels and had my fun with a cruiser but i knew before i got the shadow and after the 636 demo ride, i was indeed a sport bike rider at heart.
@@itsx_1308 I literally did the same thing but with a old bobber shadow I just got it because they are super cheap and I liked the look of them and I needed some wheels cuz my vette was busted
@@rhythmrain5232 damn rip to your corvette man. I guess things happen for a reason… i had my first minor accident on the shadow on a rainy day and ever since i never trusted the tires on them. I fixed the parts that were damaged, which was only the left grip, clutch lever, signal lights, and foot pegs thankfully.
Since I’ll be selling the bike soon i wont buy new tires haha and it’s a pain in the ass cus it’s shaft driven, which is low maintenance but a hassle for the rear brake maintenance and tires
@@rhythmrain5232did you buy one? I’m really curious. If so let me know how it is please 🙏🏻
loving my 07 zx10r since new. no abs or traction control. all beast
why shouldn’t anyone buy the cbr600rr?
I have a 2013 Zx6r that I daily. Truly an incredible machine. I beat the hell out of it too of course with no issues ha my favorite bike.
Had a 2009 version for 10 years, awesome bike in the stables for sportsbike days out!
Step father has a 06’ 636 limited edition with the silver and red faring with spikes….(yikes), the fairings have some small cracks, and the tank rusted out from when he had to go on deployment and didn’t prep it to store.
It’s going to be interesting getting it going again, knowing absolutely nothing about motorcycle mechanics, going to have to change a few parts on it.
I believe he won it in a giveaway or raffle kind of thing where it’s had some upgrades, and it definitely has way too much low end torque, popping wheelies in 1st gear, with 2 riders at about 250lbs, definitely going to get it tuned and try to fix that low end torque.
Ever try shifting into 2nd?
@@monkmoto1887 I haven’t spoken to him about it that much, but it wheelies at low RPM in every gear, either has too much low end or he really sucks at throttle control, according to my mother it’s just low end torque.
I have 0 experience on a motorcycle so it will be sketchy as hell if I try to run it to figure it out once/if I get it running.
A set of adjustable rear sets, lower the front and rear a little,add handle bar risers and a better seat. Then it's a all around great bike!
I tried to buy a 2021 brand new Zx6R, but they were unavailable for some reason! So I ended up with a brand new 2020 Gsxr 1000. I dont regret it at all, but the Zx6R is my favourite 600 class.
You need to do a review on the best CBR600RR, the ‘08 …
My dream bike is a 636 from 05-06 with an akro undertail exhaust, reflective black farings with gold doritos painted on, gold rizoma levers and mirrors, gold anodized screws and ofc gold wheels.
Say what you wanna say, but that bike redirects some blood in my body.
I agree the ch1 is a lovely bike, although I prefer the 03-04 bh1 for some reason!
lmao, my bike literally almost fits what your describing to a T has everything but the gold doritos lol
I have a 2017 same spec “racing edition” I love this bike so much and would recommend a 636 to anyone. I got suuuper lucky and got mine directly from the factory crated with 0 miles in 2020. Demo unit that got misplaced during covid so no broski miles lmao. Kawi also grandfathered the warranty and titled me the first owner. Did the full break in myself and now she’s a runner. Never gunna sell it
Im considering getting the same bike (2017 KRT) and am just concerned about comfort. I ride for fun every now and then, going to the beach or around town. I had a Daytona I sold partly because the suspension was hard as a rock and the ergos killed my body. However I never had ridden sport bikes so it was (and still is) pretty new to me. Should I go through with it and get the ZX? I mainly want it because it will be way better on the highway than my current naked bike.
@@CaptainCandycorn I am 5' 9" and used to commute 40min to work, and that I think was about the limit where I started to fatigue. However I never had issues with lower back even with a backpack on with a laptop in it. The ZX is not as aggressive as an R6 & they hold value super well so you can always trade it. They are very desirable bikes and there will always be a buyer for a good condition unit. As far as ownership I love the bike, super smooth with plenty power even below 8k. Lastly when your on the highway and you one hand the throttle you can sit upright to make a longer trip more comfortable. If you do Clip ons then its like riding a supermoto so even better lol. Hope this help in my opinion... buy the dirty 6 haha
I bought a completely stock 2016 ninja 1000 with 5000 miles. After installing murph's bar risers, I am absolutely in love. It's a bit different than the 70' s CB's that I have been riding for over 30 years.
I have me a FRESH 2019 ZX6R (636) with 3K miles on it. I freaking love it. The 2019-2023 GEN have insane gearing with those 15/43 sprockets. And the LED lights are just gorgeous. I down graded for a K7 GSXR 1K
Which experience is better, ZX 19 or Gixeer 07
Dismissing the CBR600 is the ultimate spec sheet warrior move
“Never go cheap on the rubber”- poppa yam🍠
I am in Texas where it's summer all year round & I think I'll just stick with a 300/400 as a daily commuter it's slow enough to where I won't wanna gun it every time I get a chance but also fast enough to get out of a bad situation
I have 98 ZX6R. I love it. It’s my first sport bike 😅
I bought a used 13' white 636 a few years back with 1100mi on it. Absolutely loved it. Coming from a ninja 300 I wasn't anticipating the back pain from commuting, but I enjoyed the power. If I had a 20min commute I'd likely still have it, but 40-45mins wreaks havoc on my back so I ended up selling it
dang it's really not bad huh? maybe I'll get a 650 or something. looking for a fully faired sportbike with highish power that's comfortable and doesn't break the bank .
@@Oob144 I’m 32 years old 220lbs. My back doesn’t hurt on my ZX6R At all. I find it comfortable after a while. My ACE will hurt though.
@@videocardzrule3097 huh okay, might have to try a couple out. Thx for the info brother
Hey yamm had to "lay er down" yesterday cause I took a turn too tight at slow speed as my rear tire was going over a small rock. This caused my back tire to lose traction and quickly changed the direction of momentum which made it fall to my left side. Needless to say it looked like I was slowly letting my bike down into a crib whilst I was bouncing off the rev limiter in neutral. I picked the bike back up with the only issue being a bent toe shift lever and an embarrassing moment infront of several cars.
Why were you in neutral in a turn?
@@dalecolegrove6652 I was in first gear when beginning to turn then mid turn as it started to tip I pulled in the clutch and put it in neutral before it went completely sideways.
same happened to me yesterday, pothole at gas station and I panicked. I bent my toe shift level into my quick shifter and now I cant quick shift, poor girl :'(
@@mettrowolf2484 I had to bend my shift lever back which is kind of a no no but it worked
Yes, the Triumph Daytona 675 R rocks, love the $hit outta my 2016.
36k miles all in the 10kRPM and above, still kicking strong.
Looked at the 636 yesterday - I like!😆
I still have my 636 '13 and it's amazing on any kind of situation leaving apart that for me, it's the most beautifil R that has been built since then (well, except for the new ZX10R :D)
It kills me that I had to sell mine in 2018. I had a 2013 ZX6R that hadn't been dropped and only had about 6,000 miles on it (I was rear ended in my car on I35 North close to the Infomart by a semi truck, so riding is extremely painful) and I struggled to sell it for $6500. I could sell that same bike today with twice the mileage for more and it wouldn't take the two months that it did. However, I do miss riding and I am hoping I will be able to in the next 2 years. Dat ZX4RR is looking real nice.
Please! I wanna see a video of a GSXR750!!! I’m highly considering one as my next bike.
Genuine question yammie as a person that wants to get a 600 after im not a learner. Why not not a Honda CBR 600?
Tbh im probably gonna try and get a Daytona because I work for Triumph now but still can you tell me oh great Yammie?
I feel called out 😂 i have those led lights BUT i actually take care of it, i follow service manual maintenance schedule and I'm studying valve clearance as I'm slowly approaching the dreaded clearance check/adjustment service.
Sold a beautiful tri color Honda and the next owner painted it flat fucking black and crashed it in a few months. I think the bike legit committed suicide.
Well the real reason I love the Kawasaki is bcuz I can reach the floor it's comfy. And I can always fix it if something goes wrong. I love 2020 Kawasaki zx6r. And my 10r.
Would love to get a new one but I don't think I'll be upgrading for another 5 years.
Here's the problem I can afford a 636 but I want a Aprilia factory 🤣
For real guys. Do not cheap out on Tires, brakes, and gear. I put Nitto NT555s on my wife's Ford Escape. It stops, turns, and gets out under turbo a lot better.
My 2020 ZX6R KTR with 200 miles is for sale! Moving up to a Liter Kawasaki in 2023.
Dont forget that the Rokform will break your phone camera within a few weeks of starting to use it!
So to be clear, just out of curiosity, Kawasaki and Suzuki are the only manufacturers of inline 4-cylinders in the 600-700 displacement class? 2-cylinders suck compared to 4-cyclinders. Sure glad that I've hung onto my liter bike. Took it for a spin today, smooth and powerful.
what's up with the cylinder attached to the handlebar in every video?
Man, I love the ZX6. Such a great bike, although I do prefer the Yamaha R6 overall.
Why are led’s on a used bike not good sign of maintenance ?
Since you're on the Kawi train, you should do a full review of the KLX300SM.
Man I was waiting for this. Thanks Uncle Yammie
I don’t think yammie hates any one bike manufacturer I just think he’s disappointed in some companies attempt to call something a good or fun bike
Thank you for validating my choice of buying a 2016 zx6r it is my second bike my first was a 2011 ninja 650 I loved it but I love the zx6r more
Love the love for the Kawi.. I own a 2009 Monster edition, and i love it, great bike.. great review on your behalf.
why do the swing arms on the 600s look bigger than like all other bikes? even the 1000s swing arms on some bikes look kinda slim compared to the 600s.. i dont get it...
As someone looking for a used 600.. can’t agree more with the led and anodized parts.. mirror block offs top off the cake.
hey Yam,,, after NO bikes in 31 years i got a new 2020 Z900 because of what youve said on comfort and handle baRS, clip ons. i LOVE and RESPECT it! then went kinda back too roots and got a new KLX 300 dual sport street legal, dirt tires! lol NOW i put a deposit on a 2022 ZX6R!~!! ill pickm it up in next week or so, long story but wanted too lock in a paticular color and certain dealer. cant nervously wait! lol already parts shopping! im gonna leave my 900 mostly stock i thinkBUT full flash etc etc on 636, SCREW the warranty! lol
1:44 Cell phone plus ground equals a phone sized hole in the ground. Yes, I still use my old Nokia.
The bike needs a tune. It gets rid of all the bad things on ECU that’s a whole different animal. Gets rid of all the bad thing is, you’re mentioning it was for the emissions appliance.
I'm new to your channel bro you make me crease everytime
Dang it, now the prices are going to go up on the zx6r because of yammie
Finally… yammie appreciate a bike!!🍾
I'd put it in low power mode to start, being a sport bike noob...
Love my 636, been upgrading every few years, great bike for track and street, and no I don't want a liter bike. It more than enough unless you want to die alot sooner. I will say if you live in an area where you can ride your bike more than 3 month out of the year get a kawasaki 1000rr.
i got the ninja 2022 ninja 400 last year. plan on riding it the rest of this year and upgrading next year. this seems like my next choice!
Why not CBR 600RR? what is your beef with that bike?
I daily ride my 06 636 for the last 6 years and before that I daily rode my 07 ninja 250. The 636 was fast when I first got it without even hitting high rpms and now I ride it even faster but not close to redlining gears yet. It doesn't really need to cause of all the awesome cubage
How many of y'all actually like stock levers? I hated mine. Love my aftermarket, been on for 9k miles, no issues.
I actually like shorty levers lol
Nothing wrong with my stock levers they're adjustable but only the front brake
@@monkmoto1887 same I like short, otherwise my stock woulda broke off by now 😂
@@mrtree1368 That's how mine were, but I wanted them to be adjustable and shorter. I only use 1 finger on both with a slipper clutch.
How can you still support Rokform Papa noob? They don't have vibration dampening. I've killed 2 iPhones on my Rokform. I called customer support in Nov 2021 and they told me they would have something by March 2022. It's May and they still have nothing. The case is amazing the mount is not meant for newer gen phones.
Vibrations kill OIS in cameras, unfortunately.
My quadlock mount came out with a vibration dampener which works well, but be very careful to check the screw's tightness, because mine came loose, my phone hit the pavement, and was destroyed.
I kept the mount but used a ton of loctite to re-secure it, and check it often.
At 10:17 WOW! You also teach Interpretive dance to motorcycles... You are the definition of multi talented Yammie... Lol.. Just messing with ya..
3:41 you forgot taxes and dealer fees .
I love you yammie bro 💪 always teaching 💪😂
I had an 05 636 and could do 122 in 3rd. I swear I had the bike at 180, I weighed 150 at the time
I get the cheap levers and tires, but what’s wrong with buying a Vortex gas cap for $100? Serious question. Though they have no use, they do look good on some bikes
Me af, ss 600 after a sport touring 600, third bike. 2014 zx6r or 2015 r6 we shall see
Most used 636s you buy will have been revved out and raced/abused a bit. Remember that. Used 650s are okay to buy. When it comes to super sports I only buy new. And I bought ABS, just made sure I lost another 5 pounds. Lol
May 11 keep up the amazing content 😱👍💸💸
Who would you recommend to do the ecu flash?
pray for my boys, I need this kyle energy in my life
Just because Tammie has decreed it not so, I will wear my one piece suit on the road while shifting my CBR600rr well below the powerband. I'm also not shaving my balls...actually I'm going to do that, but not because Yammie said to.
Sick Chopin my dudes. 🤙
learning how to wheelie on this bike is like when a stoner levels up to heroin... I cant stop muahahaha
My dream beginner bike fr
Happy New year
Yammie, why do you hate the cbr600 so much? I'm actually considering it
is ABS necessary or useful on this bike I plan on getting one that will be primarily on the street with the occasional spin around the track. Papa yam i need you to guide my lost soul
is the honda cb500f naked a bad choice based on your disliking of the cb500 rr? or would that be a biased answer😂
"I'll give you a hint: It is another Kawasaki" ok that's gotta be the Z900. Or the Z900RS if Yam decides to go full hipster mode
I picked up a 14' Daytona 675R for $5380 today
But sports bikes have super high insurance rates.
Hey, I just get in to motorcycling. Why is Honda hated like cb500 or 600rr???
What about the gsxr 750?
Outdated instrument cluster, no quick shift and no ABS. So.....no.
I want to get a gixxer thou engine and put it in an Rc car 😏
eeerrr Kenan Sofuoglu dominated WSS on the ZX6, 3 championships on this bike and probably should have had 5
R6 my all time favorite
I have a question I have been riding in a pair of red wing work boot. I just bought a pair of Noru riding boots. But I can not shift the bike most of the time while wearing the noru boots. I have tried everything I can think of but I can figure out what is happening. The red wings work perfect every time. Any advise would be appreciated thanks
This is my first bike wish me luck😈
So what makes Daytona better than more refined inline 4?
thoughts about getting a zx6r for a first bike?
You can’t go 3 videos without talking shit about the cbr500r but have you ever ridden the cb500f? I have the 2021 and I really like it. I could take a trip down to Austin if you’d like to make a video about mine. I’m in dfw so it’s not really that far in texas terms.
Please return all Ninjas to their rightful home mo Powa 🙏
hi bro the photo you used at 0:53 belongs to me ...
she is not Free
Have you tried the baby (ZX25R) of the NINJA ZX series?
Won’t even use low power in rain if it’s raining hard enough to need to go that slow why tf are you still on the road I can understand using it when you first get it to get comfortable with the seat position and feel of the bike
You might want to invest in a popfilter my god the audio is bad
