A Supersport for the real world...
The ZX6R, for the money the ZX6R is hands down the BEST all around 600 of today. It's the most comfortable of the four, the gear box is the smoothest and there is virtually no engine vibration at higher revs. Neutral is always easy to find with Kawasaki's patented Positive Neutral Finder. Do you like taking a passenger? No problem, you can ride with a passenger all day and you wouldn't notice the difference. If you're looking for a bike that you can live with than the ZX6R is the right choice.

In the super-competitive realm of mid-sized sportbikes, the Kawasaki NINJA® ZX-6R motorcycle is a stand-out with numerous accolades and magazine comparison victories to attest to its strengths.
