  • did you notice any difference in braking? the 650 and zx6 are both dual front disc i think so I dont know how different it would be. Going from a 250 to a zx6 the braking i assume would be a lot different since the 250 only has a single front disc

  • @Imsodamnhood You might not think so just by looking at them, but the breaking on the 650r and the zx6r is like night and day. The breaks on the 650r are quite mushy compared to the zx6r which are really solid. They also happen to be some of the best breaks in its class, even when compared to brembos like on the new gsxr or the daytona 675r.

  • That thing ain't for commuting. ...made for the track race bike.

  • @sabbottart It will be when I put some convertibars on it.

  • Really like the video! A sincere opinion of an owner of both bikes. Thanks.

  • 650r has plenty of power, and also way more comfortable, than the zx6. You save 3 grand and you can actually ride it everyday

  • I have been looking around for a motorcyle i havent ridden one before i wanted to get in to motorcyles and i was wondering if this would be a good first bike for someone that is around the weight of 270 and a height of 5'9" -- the ninja 250 seems like it wouldnt be enough power to move me around on the highway/freeway fast enough

  • @ThisizChaveze The clip-ons (lowered handlebars) make it a little harder to ride when you first transition from a standard bike to a super sport. But you will get used to it after a short while.

  • @presidentchell is this bike easier or harder to ride than the 650r?

  • it looks like hayabusa armor off halo.

  • really thorough review. Good job

  • Really great review! Very intelligent, useful, insightful.
