Default saw the new ninja 636 2007 today :)

So my friends mom works for kawasaki but she doesnt work in research and devoloplment but today we went with his mom the check it out and its sexy. it looks almost the same though. didnt get to see it up close but it looks good. looks like there going with a motogp style exhaust and i believe they changed the aero dynamics so instead of splitting the air it pushes down now so it has downforce.


there releasing the pictures and stuff in september

Isn't kawasaki R&D in japan? If so why would they already have a 07 ZX6R if they aren't done w/ it yet?

That exhaust is fugly for kawasaki going w/ the crowd.

I agree with that, but don't the shorty exhausts help the center of gravity?

Function &gt; Form right?

Looks like kawasaki is thinking about *dropping* the 636 from the zx6r and just going with a 599cc...

from: http://www.raptorsandrockets.c...i.htm

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Kawasaki on the other hand will almost certainly have a brand new 599cc engine with space shuttle technology. Kawasaki is more likely to have a go at the whole Fly By Wire throttle thing and other exotic solutions to benefit both the race teams and the techno freaks, that now is the potential buyers of the new breed of 600s, than Honda. Things went wrong in the styling department for the 2006 ZX-10R and Kawasaki will not make the same mistake with the even more important ZX-6R. It is still believed that the new ZX-6R will get some similarities with the 10, but not many. A new exhaust system is on the table for the smallest ZX as it only conforms to Euro 2. We expect MotoGP style exhaust on the new Ninja and whilst both Suzuki and Yamaha has opted for a completely new solution we are unsure about whether Kawasaki will find this solution beneficial too. Kawasaki needs a brand new engine to take the firm firmly into the Euro 3 with room to compete and improve on horsepower and other important sales points in this class in the next three years. Currently Kawasaki is staying afloat with a 636cc engine and it is believed that this engine has reached the end of the development and that a new one will replace it. And that could just be the 599 now that Kawasaki has launched the ER6F that should allow Kawasaki to attack in full on sports mode again. To explain, Kawasaki needs the ZX-6R to win supersport races and it can’t continue developing the 636 separately. With a brand new engine it is doubtful that Kawasaki will launch both a new Euro 3 ZX-6RR and ZX-636R. The 636 was a nice trick, but we believe that Kawasaki wants you to buy the ER6F and N if you want strong midrange and torque whilst the ZX-6R goes back to being a technological showpiece and potential race winning machine. We can’t wait to see the new 600s even though they have a mountain to climb to be quite as ground braking as the latest offerings from Yamaha and Suzuki. Just for fun we have made a ZX-6R with retro paint job as well. Paintjob by Robert O'Brien/'07 CGs by Luc1</TD></TR></TABLE>
