hey, I have an '04 636. I put aluminum sprocket on the rear with a +3 tooth count. Fiberglass body kit, Velocity stacks, Micron slip-on, and a PC3USB. Haven't got it all the way there, but 5th gear for me is 151, and the most in 6th gear is 159 ( with 3000rpm to go ) My estimate with all that I have done is about 164-169. They say that a stock '04 636 shoould do 174-176mph.

Well, stock '05 ZZR600... Still breaking it in (trying to be good, less than 150 miles left till I hit 1000), so my top-speed so far is 80.5 as measured by my GPS... First time I hit the freeway I thought DAMN, that's FAST... but I guess I'm getting used to it now, I feel a lot more comfortable, and it doesn't seem nearly as fast. I'm surprised how rock-solid this thing is at that speed.

About breaking in....

it says not to take above 4k for the first 500 miles....then not past 6k for the 500-1000 marker...but, when I ride to work I have to take the highway...so I need to be atleast 60-65mph which puts me at 6k i believe, and im only at 480miles or so....when I leave a light, or am driving around w/ lights i dont take it past 4k.....should I worry about this? I mean its not like I've raped it or anything.....I did go a lil faster once, in 6th but I took my time and not just revved it up there.....
