My ZZR 600 is in the shop and I need to have the top fairing repainted in a few days. Could someone do me a favor? Please measure the front "sticker" right above the front light that says Kawasaki.

Thanks!

ZZR Rider, I'll do it at lunch and get back to you unless someone gets to it first....

does anyone know how much fuel is left in tank when the light comes on in an 03 636? the light comes on around 120miles or so but i always wonder how much farther i can go...

You mean the one that's actually on the windshield?

you should have 30 miles left if I figure that right since I deal in litres.....lol........I can go dry at 170 miles but that is ideal coniditions once it got over 5000 miles and was broke in.... Tim

Meant the one right above the headlight and below the windscreen. Looks like it won't matter anyways tho, the used top fairing I got from the UK was a piece of ..... so I've decided to buy a completely new one instead. Yeah, gonna cost me a lot more but wanna get out riding soon.

ZZR_Rider · 04-23-2005

Btw, seen some links for windscreens in the US, anyone know where to get some within the EU? I'd prefer a smoked one, not too dark, and in the original size.

orangemug · 04-26-2005

is there no helmet lock on the 636 or am i just that blind?

Just a tip. NEVER EVER run an electric fuel pump dry. This is a quick way to drastically shorten the life of the pump. Electric fuel pumps use the fuel as cooling medium. If I'm in doubt, I always err on the side of caution and fuel up early. I refuel my 10 at 120 miles because this gives me the flexibility to have enough reserve to get to a gas station if I'm out in the boonies.

I don't know for certain on the new model, but it may be like my '02 ZX9R and wife's ZX6R. Just use the key to pop-off the passenger seat. There should be at least one hook directly beneath that seat for you to poke your helmet-strap's D-ring. Then just latch that passenger seat back down over the chinstrap and the helmet is secured.
It's much easier to use than the old-style EX500 helmet lock (but I'm still keeping her!)

orangemug · 04-26-2005

alright i'll try that. i have been taking it everywhere with me. lol

thx

Check under your passenger seat. My 2001 ZX6R has the oil info. labeled on the bottom of the passenger seat. It states 10W40, 10W50, & 10W20 ,10W50. There's more info. also...hope this helps...

Went to the dealer, they didn't seem too "technical", just sorta guessed that 1040 would be the proper weight...

I should really buy a shop manual for this thing...

My 2001 ZX6R has the oil info. labeled on the bottom of the passenger seat. Just unlock and take it off. and flip it over.
