the zx7rr was, but not the zx6rr............The latter was sold in a lot more quantities than the former, so I wouldn't really call it a homologation special IMO. That would be like calling the R6 or gixxer-6 a homologation special just because they raced. True, the 636 sold more than the zx6rr, but the only reason they made the 636 was to give street riders another choice.

I thought it was the other way around, they designed the 6rr as the race homoligization special then bumped displacement and engineered the 636 for more power vs other true 600's. There was nothing special about it, kawi just had to sell a true 600 (599cc) bike to be able to compete
