No clutch issues on my ZX4. Nice shifting, quick shifter up and down is smooth. Not as good as the ZX6 but a hell of alot better than the Ninja 400.

I like the Ninja 400 better, with an ECU flash and exhaust the 4R is just another flavor of the month. Looks cool though
@GreenDragon6365 күн бұрын
I had a Ninja 400 for a very short time and didn't like it much. The ZX4 is a more refined SuperSport with better upgrades. The engine, gear box, suspension, brakes, frame, electronics, sound, experience, everything is better on the ZX4. The ZX4 is nearly double the price because it is a far superior motorcycle in every way.

HI, Thank you for the content! just wanted to ask, is there a reason why you got the 4RR, do you use the 6r for a specific type of riding? do you prefer one over the other for different things or was it you just wanted it. Thank you! I'm just trying to make a decision on what bike to get.
@GreenDragon636Ай бұрын
I like Kawasaki inline 4 super sport bikes and will ride both of them. I have 16k on the ZX6 and only 500 miles on the ZX4. I just finished setting up the ZX4 and will be spending more time riding the 4 once the weather cools down. Both bikes require some customization to get them comfortable enough to ride. The ZX6 is a true SS race bike that is street legal. The ZX4 is a street bike that is track worthy. I'm enjoying the ZX4 on the country roads and local twisties. Once the ECU is flashed and the clipons are replaced, the ZX4 is very comfortable and fast enough, but requires high revs to get it moving. I don't need to Rev the shit out ilof it to enjoy it. The ZX6 is a powerful bike that has great low end torque so no need to Rev it, or even down shift. The ZX6 is a more refined bike and a lot faster. So it depends on what type of rider you are and what type of riding you will be doing. I'm very happy to have both but if I could only have 1 it would be the ZX6R because I like having the power when needed, but can get you into a lot of trouble quickly. The ZX4 is a great bike and more forgiving and will have a lower cost of ownership and may even be more fun if you live in the country, or commuting.

why do you choose sport bikes to turn into touring bikes?
@GreenDragon636Ай бұрын
I only ride SuperSport class street bikes because they are the most refined motorcycles in terms of performance, technology, sound, and handling. The inline 4 and full fairing SS bikes are the Apex motorcycles. Adding clip-ons does not transform a SuperSport into a touring motorcycle, it enhances the SuperSport experience. Many who race these motorcycles are using the same clip-ons I'm installing. These Woodcraft clip-ons are actually made for racing with a full +7 -7 degrees in adjustability. So depending on your situation or preference, you can personalize your SuperSport experience. In order to get the most out of your SuperSport motorcycle it requires personalization. The bike should be setup for the rider not for how others perceive a bike should be setup. I ride for about 200 miles and 5 hours every Saturday and ride a mix of country, highway, and extreme twisties around the Blue Ridge Mountains so the bike is setup for comfort and performance.

The seat is lowered 1 inch using PSR lowering links.
