Oh definitely. They are "bigger" feeling.

dont forget about the jumper mod if you go with the zx6r. especially if you like to play up top

Yeah, but I want the big piston fork:lol

I can get a ZX6r 09 for 8999 OTD with the only mods may be a rear shock and race tires. The Gixxer is gonna need 1700 bucks in suspension bits, then the squid who owned it last prolly wheelied it, crashed it etc. etc.

The 2009 Gixxer 750 was a pefect fit as well. I would say a hair better than the ZX6r, but you were def. more "in" the bike vs. on top of it. Being on top of it seems to make it feel more flickable.

I heard the U.S. version is almost identical to the Euro version (within a few HP measured) unlike the 2008 model.

I bought a 2009 all black ZX6R last week for $7899 OTD. Thing is rockin, but the suspension dude told me the suspension is junk. It feels pretty damn good to me...

Pics? Which supension dude did you talk to? I'm sure he'll say every stock bike is junk, to convince people to pay for his services.

No doubt.

Yep. I bet it's just fine for the street and occasional track days...just like most modern sportbikes.

LOL...Tije from Cyclemall.net

I put the BT003 Race on there and ran the setup that he gave me. I think the combo works very well, but not aweseome. You can feel when you start pushing it above 80mph the suspension doesn't contact the road as well. Honda did the same thing. This is just a function of stock components. They just aren't going to be all that great.

Tije told me the problem with the BPF front end is that there is almost no low speed compression. So...when you dive into the corner you can be late as fuck on the brakes (the front doesn't dive), but when you drive out of the corner, the front rises too fast causing highsides. He said a bunch of guys on the track were experiencing this.
