GREAT STUFF ABOUT THE 09' - Sport Rider Magazine, Middleweight Comparison Test
"Usually the track portion of the comparison is a closer subjectively, but the new ZX-6R blew everyone out of the water this time."
"The powerplant is not only the strongest on the dyno (even over the 675cc Triumph), but its quick-revving character translates to fierce acceleration all the way from the beefy midrange to its screaming top-end."
"The ZX-6R is so exhilerating that it doesn't seem in the same class with the others."
MORE - Motor Cyclist Magazine, Class of 09' (Kawasaki ZX-6R, Ducati 1198, Honda CBR-600, Suzuki GSX-R1000, Yamaha R1)
"Excepting Ducati's 1198, there's not a racier bike in this bunch, and even that's a close call."
"This ZX-6R pulls so hard off the corners that we had to check the tailsection decal to be sure Kawi hadn't slipped us another 636cc cheater."
"And the rev-hungry inline-four delivers glorious high-rpm power that has you grinning in your helmet at every corner exit."
