Jump on it; great price/ great bike! You will love the hanling & power of the bike. It steers very quick; all you have to do is think and it does it. Get a steering damper; you will need it.

I think it all depends on you. How much self controll and common sense you have plays a big part in it. After taking my MSF class the frist bike I ever rode was my friends 05 GSXR600 one week later I bought my 04 636. If you get the bike just start slow. keep the revs down it will feel plenty fast then as you get more used to riding starting taking it up higher in the revs where the bike starts making more power.

RE: question about 03' zx636

i inspected the bike more carefully after i got home and i have a few quick questions.

2. where is the best place to buy windscreens? also, i have the 2003 ZX6R,is there an integratedtaillight available? (i will do my search in a little bit, but if you know the answer, please help me out by just posting it)

3. where is the best place to shop for motocycle exhausts? currently, there is a micron slip on, but i could like to get something with carbon fiber.

4. what is the recommend tire pressure? 32?

5. there is a broken tab (plastic), what is the best way to fix these broken tabs?

Thanks everyone for all of your help and for helping me to make up my mind on getting this bike.

Contrats on getting the bike,

2 As far as the windscreen goes just look on ebay the best I know of is zero gravity and puig are some top quality stuff.

3 most companys now make carbon fiber cans for bikes now just depends on how much your looking to spend and what company you like the most.

4 I'm running powers on my bike. I keep the rear at 40psi and the front at 38. From I would say look at whats on the bike and see what the manufacture says is the best psi.

5 where is the broken tab at? if its one of the mounting tabs for the head light house its a major pain its is on the fairings get some abs plastic repair stuff or jb weld.
