You should be wondering the thoughts of people here who have ridden both (of which there probably aren't many). Anything else is subjective opinion based on brand/looks or second hand recalling of magazine reviews.

For what its worth though, there is very little difference between the current sports 600 (it is the most competitive class). Go with what feels right (and get a test ride if possible...), assuming you're looking at buying one and not you're not simply bored!

Yeh, sorry about that i wasent very percise! Im after buying one (in a year or so) but im just wondering which would be better?

As ive seen all the videos on Yamaha's talking about the 20,000rpm, and the electronic trottle and the new design of the chassis! But my cousin is after the 636 so i was just wondering which is better?

Going off performance, speed, reliability, handling etc!

Cool thanks!

The ZX6R of course Laughing

I think the new R6 is a bit over-hyped, and that 17,500 RPM redline is a lie, and Yamaha have removed it from their website apparantly. Peak power is at 14,500RPM.

Get a test ride on both and see for yourself which you prefer Thumbs Up

The Kwak will be a lot cheaper as well - under 6k for a new one.
