Well, there really are no other bikes in its class, it has 36 more cc's than all the other 600's. It is a great middle weight bike, very forgiving, and can be a great bike to learn on, only if you respect it. Is this your first bike?

nah, this is my second one. i learned how to ride in a 99 katana 600 about a month ago and then swapped it with a 04 636 plus $1500...only thing is it has a salvaged title, looks great though and runs awesome...

like coke said its really in a class of its own.... but if u do put it up against the other 600's u wouldnt have any troubles showing them your tail... if u like twisties then the r6 will be a tough challenge unless u know how to ride and tuck the bike really low in turns... it seems to have a problem of trying to straighten up too soon for me while exiting turns but learned to live with it.

hey killer636 i also have an 04 636. ive so far added a carbon fiber D&D exhaust and k&n filter. though it isnt much but its a difference. im also looking into a powercommander. ill tell u what though, ive smoked some 600's and kept up with a 750. the 636 is a nice bike

killer636 · 10-05-2005

how much difference? i've ordered a couple of stuff for looks, and thinking about repainting it, it has some scratches when i got it.

youll get a few hp some better throttle response. when my 636 was stock except the d&d i was pulin away from a conv. vet.

how's the sound of your d&d? Is it loud? do u have the slip on or full system? I'm looking for an exhaust for my 06' 636.......
