Justin Lemery did you take a motorcycle course before you got it?

Justin Lemery same story for me brother, still romping her to this day💯

Yeah I started as well on this. But I was SMART with it. Because man you are ether driving the bike or it’s driving you💯

Ninja Budd ''her''!? More like ''it''.

I just sold mine 3 weeks ago... im devastated....so I bought a '19 last week.

awesome...

@Christian Hansen I picked up my ‘03 954RR just as the lockdowns were starting for a whopping $3k. Now everyone wants more than twice that. It’s insane. Then again, you’d have to offer me about that much to get it away from me. I love it.

@@joetrosclair8434covidflation. 🤬

+Saturday Winter thank you and thanks for watching

I said the same thing. Too. 😂👍👍

Get what you mean but the Isle of man is a closed circuit, big difference between that and a normal road, pot holes, gravel, road kill, traffic, tractors, broken down car etc can all be round the corner, not saying the TT guys are not good, they have balls of steel and loads of skill but it helps knowing the raod surface is good and has been checked and cleared.

@@Markycarandbikestuff I’d say closed circuit is a a stretch, it’s a closed road course at best

How old are you? I just bought one and I'm 31. I don't feel old at all and I was active duty Army for 3 years.

I’m hopefully buying this 09 tomorrow that I’m checking out, it’ll be my first bike, how do you like it?? It’s been my dream bike since forever haha

@@wackysamurai1583 I love it! It's so easy to work on!

How do u think of it without abs since we can be careful but a fool can just pull in between and during rains

@@aniruddhagujar4119 Ooh that’s the one thing I’d love to have, but as long as you stay calm and maintain proper control, anyone would be fine without it :)

You can find a used one for about $4500 if you get a good deal

I just picked up mine. Just don't ride stupid

I just bought same exact bike for my first

@@sd.2638 it’s been my dream bike since I was like 4, how’s the bike?? I’m checking a 2009 ZX6R tomorrow and I’m hoping it’s good and I’ll get it; it’ll technically be my first bike :D

Very true statement. I get bored riding my sport bike slow but have a blast riding my cruiser slow.

they came with the bike

Robin Michalik Revzilla probably has them

Oof, I hope you didn't buy that one. Terrible miles, even if it's a good price. I bought one with 11k miles and that's in 2021...

I'm also 6 ft but a lil over 200 lbs and I can flat foot it no problem. Weight does matter

I'm 6' tall, 135 lbs., and I can easily flat foot on my 2009 ZX6R Monster Energy Edition.... I'm not trying to be an asshole or anything at all with this comment, I'm just posting to share my personal experience with this exact same year and model bike so anyone who is wondering can get the proper information, because I read the other responses, and I really don't believe Isaac Wildsmith's post in my honest opinion... I think he is either lying about his height or just doesn't even known his real height... I'm not sure, but its well known through scientific studies that guys lie about their height ALL THE TIME and add a few inches that really don't exist and it seems like that is the case with his post, and here is why: 1. I have a 2009 ZX6R Monster Energy Edition, the exact same bike as shown in the video, and mine has 100% Stock/OEM Specification parts as far as anything that would have an impact on the ride height of the bike. So the ride height has not been changed at all on my bike from how it came from the factory... 2. I come to 6'0'' tall with my shoes on but no helmet of course, and I weigh 142 with all my gear + helmet when I measured and weighed myself just now. Then I ran straight out to the garage and I can easily put both of my feet completely flat on the ground without even totally extending my legs, so I could easily flat foot with my knees slightly bent. If anyone is thinking of getting a Kawasaki 600cc and is trying to figure out which review is telling the truth, but do not believe me, then just reply and we can exchange information and I can text/email you a picture of me sitting on the bike with my feet flat on the ground for proof and then me standing next to a measuring scale for height also. On my 2008 Ninja and on the 2009 Ninja that I own now, and on any other Japanese 600cc bike I've ridden for that matter, I am able to come to a stop and put my feet completely flat on the ground and still have my knees a bit bent to be safe. Also you can always get lowering links for the front and back, they will allow you to lower the ride height 1"-2", and you can do this upgrade to the ride height for very cheap, especially if you are capable of doing the work yourself, its not very difficult at all if you are used to working on cars/bikes... When I installed lowering links last it was a few years back, so they might even have lowering link kits available now that are capable of going lower than 2", but last time I looked for parts online a 2" drop was the lowest I could find for lowering links that fit 600cc models... Keep in mind though to never risk buying cheap knock-off brand or lower quality/dependability parts while trying to save $$ when it comes to lowering links, since it has to do with the suspension you do not want to have some shitty parts break while going over a bump at 100+mph or something along those lines.... Also like he says in the video, the 2009 ZX6R is wayyyy too fast to be safe starter bike, and it will also make it much harder to learn and a much slower process of learning how to actually ride a bike properly if you are learning on a bike that you aren't comfortable with because it has more power than you know how to even use. Starting on something like a Kawasaki 250 or 300 is perfect for a first bike, and will allow you to learn much better and more quickly than starting on a 600/1000 if you aren't already an experienced rider and been riding for a long time. The only way someone should be starting out on a 600cc bike is if they have been riding dirtbikes their whole life or for at least long enough to be a skilled rider... Starting on a bike too big and too powerful will totally slow down and impact the learning process and ability to get better at skills like knowing your limits/breaking points/ trail-braking/ how to navigate the lines of a turn going into the turn, through the apex, and out of the turn, how to roll the throttle on smoothly coming out of the apex, etc.... There are so many skills that you won't ever even begin to learn or even comprehend if you aren't comfortable with the bike you are riding.... Honestly, most everyone I've ever known or heard of starting out on a newer 600 has wrecked and seriously injured themselves or even kill themselves because it is too much power to handle, and WAY more power than anyone could ever possibly use starting out.

Isaac Wildsmith the most important part is seam size. My seam size is 34, the bike has a seat height of 32 I believe, so flat footing it isn't hard for me and I'm 5'10"

Mark Heimiller and that's that

Have you ever had experience on a dirt bike or a cruiser? If not, I would stay very clear of the supersports. Not impossible, but very dangerous and very costly to learn on. All motorcycles are a blast to ride around on, so it might be beneficial to learn on either a smaller sport bike or even a smaller naked bike/cruiser. Hell, even a smaller dirt bike turned supermoto would be great, plus supermoto and cruiser would be so easy to learn on.

Are you still alive

@@gsxrryder1541 guess not 😭

@@YouJustGotBilled f

Looks like this was his last comment. RIP🤣

well then maybe you should a EBR bike . look em up

Remove its fairings and mod the shit out of it, that will make it unique.

Let's say a beginner were to get this bike. How well/comfortable would he or she be ? Let's assume he or she is confident and ready to learn.

Renato Alejandro if you ain't immature while riding you'll be fine....if you're me you're going to rev the nonsense out of it and shit yourself at the power it gives you back

Thanks, bro! Yeah, i've been meaning to buy one. Yeah, it's smart to start off with a smart mindset and slowly get comfortably immature lmao

You have 3 thumbs?

The other thumb he plays with a little too much.

No one gives a shit what you think about gear stfu its not your life you get 2 thumbs down
