Hi folks me again just bought my self another zx6r well a 636 its a b1h model. Problem is when i start it first time it sounds a bit rattly but clears once it is hot. Is the normal for newer bikes as my last zx6r g2 model never did this so i am a bit worried that i have bought a pig. The bike has only got 6000 on the clock and is on an 05 plate and looks and handles really sweet and there does not seem to be any loss of power. Am i just being para cause i spent my hard earned on it "hope so".

Thanks mate hope your right it always seems to sound worse in the morning after lying all night and is still noisy after about 30 mins. So maybe just being para after all. And KAWASAKI,s are better than all the other jap bikes. Keep up the good work Kawasaki lol worthy

Are you using the right oil?
My GPZ500 was on 10w40 car oil & was horrendous to get into 1st gear when cold.
Put some Morris' oils 10w40 semi synthetic MOTORCYCLE oil in & its unbelievably better all round Very Happy
