Kawasaki ZX6R 04 updates

[GPTECHMAN]

what are they?
all I know is they increased the soft setting on the damping
and compression on the rear shock and something with the the collar?

can anyone clear this up?

The 636 comes in Green and Orange now! Suspension is supposed to be a little more stiff.

I hope so...the '03 were weak in the damping dept. Love that engine though!

yeah I know about the graphic changes but I thought that the general feedback was that the suspension was a tad bit stiff for the street...thats why they made a softer setting for the rear shock?

really? I thought the suspension wasn't still enough. First thing I would have done is rebuild the forks and get a new shock.

this was on the kawi site....so I dont know, but when I rode the RR it felt stiff enough...rough on the street but great in turns...

- Soft end of rebound damping is increased for 2004

yeah but thats comparing it to a stock F3 suspension.... :(

I think they gave the RR engine a few more ponies to better compete in the AMA Supersport class.
