presentation of the 600 ZZR 2004

the ZZR 600 was the sports bike of the Kawa range before the ZX-6R arrived. More imposing, less exclusive, more "bourgeois", it found itself positioned in the sport-GT category, a role that suits it particularly well. The twin of the 1100 in philosophy and design, it obviously lacks the breath of its predecessor, but its engine has a much more playful, spirited temperament. While the engine pulls nicely in the first half of the rev counter, it only really expresses itself, and ravenously, at higher revs, giving the machine amazing performance and acceleration. The chassis performs well, although it can't compete with the latest track bikes on the market. On the other hand, it offers far more user-friendly comfort. The suspension is lumbar-friendly, and the well-designed riding position and honest protection make for serene touring. The brakes bear the Kawa hallmark: powerful, biting and long-lasting. The finish and equipment are equally remarkable. Against the tide of increasingly radical sports bikes, the ZZR offers a clever combination of versatility and sporting ability.

French Gold 85 Model 1993
I have only one word for it: puncture-proof!
I own a 98 model, bought new, and now I use it as a second bike, and only for short trips (a goldwing1800 has taken over), but it now has a total mileage of 376804 km (you have to be precise)
The engine performs well, even over long distances, braking is good despite the discs warping easily, comfort is good and the equipment is good. In short, it's a very good, reliable machine that's actually quite economical to run, and will take you a long way without any major problems, mine was mainly ridden on roads and freeways, without ever being too badly treated, but you can easily buy a model with 100,000km on the clock without too many second thoughts. My good old zzr will end its days in my garage, because after 20 years it's impossible to part with it (and nobody would want it)
I'd like to point out that it has its original engine, which has not been rebuilt, as well as its exhaust (rebuilt manifold). This bike is a great machine to ride.
In short, I love my zzr as much as the day I bought it Rating : 5/5

You've really done 376804 kms with a 600 zzr???, there must be an extra number, if that's the case, how many times has the distri been changed? Rating : 5/5
French Gold 85
Hello
Well yes, the mileage is correct!
So here are a few explanations about this high mileage.
Bought new and after a conscientious running-in period, it's been used rather quietly. I do a lot of driving for my job and most of the kilometers I've driven have been at regulation speed, so the engine has never been overtaxed. Add to that meticulous maintenance and feeding the engine with motul 300v and you very quickly get a canonical mileage without even realizing it, prorated over 20 years that makes an average of 22,000km per year, which isn't that much.
As for the distribution, it's been done 3 times in all, and the next one is coming soon and will be done as it always is.
Apart from consumables and an exhaust, I've never had a breakdown to complain about.
Luck, yes, maybe a little, but above all good maintenance and quiet use.
It's not as peppy as it used to be, that's for sure, but it still drives well for its age and mileage.
A good tourer, for me at least.
Not a sports car, too heavy and not at all precise in curves, in my humble opinion.
Today, it doesn't run much, but it's always a pleasure to ride it again
I love my old Z, and anyway, who'd want one? Rating : 5/5
French Bessière
Hello, My zzr 600 is from 1993. Engine always spirited (unbridled) with pot devil. Reliable. Well maintained.
Badly used (daily driving and top speed, not for pleasure but these engines need to be pushed from time to time to stay lively). mineral or synthetic car oil 10/40 A defect, you need one! The heat from the engine that rises to your knees and burns!
Another shortcoming, common to most motorcycles past and present, is the poor front lighting, despite the use of an LED bulb. Another advantage is that the sp95 E10 doesn't pose any problems. Incredibly well-designed aerodynamics mean you don't feel any air in your legs.
Equipped with a high bubble, no air in the helmet up to 170km/h (which is a trap because you can't feel the speed). A little heavy to maneuver at low speed and on foot (cast-iron engine), a toy from 60km/h. A good range if you ride quietly for 20 liters. Up to 280 km. Comfortable and practical with its net attachments. Easy maintenance and cheap spare parts. Nice look. I'm a big hit everywhere!
Even with twenty-somethings. Who'd want one?
Quite a few people!!! A policeman told me that if he could find one, he'd put it in his living room! I drive it 8 months out of 12, in town and over long distances. And it's not expensive on the second-hand market.
600€ for mine at the end of 2021. A small fault when it's hot, it has trouble restarting but always manages to do so despite everything. Rating : 5/5

French Sergio85 Model 1995
600 zzr I know it's my second "89 000 km on the odometer I'll keep it until the end", I had the first millesime year 1990 7 years ago already with which I drove 2 years in all weathers and sold at 98 000 km so it's reliable if well maintained and taken care of.What can I say about the evolution compared to the D models? The finish is a notch higher, 100 hp instead of 95, the chassis is better and the dashboard is well equipped, with fuel and temperature gauges, 2 daily trips, a key pocket and storage under the seat.
It's a sport-tourer with a riding position somewhere between sporty and road-going, smooth at low revs, lacking a bit of torque at low revs, normal for a 600, "you've got to play with the gearbox" (1000 fazer before, I'm back on the spout after a break), but once you reach 7000 rpm, it becomes racy as hell, with a hell of a stretch. It requires a good budget if you're doing milestones, but for touring and seasonal use, it's still acceptable, like all the others: a small service every 6,000 at home, "10 years of motorcycling behind me, so I'm on my own", but major overhauls every 24,000 - the most expensive - are taken care of by my mechanic.
Finally, it's a good old-fashioned sporty bike, comfortable and versatile, which doesn't do too badly in town, pleasant on small roads and long journeys.

i've been driving a 600 zzr model 96 for 6 years now and I never get tired of it. It's a very good tourer, even as a duo. Simple maintenance. mine has 33,000 kms and is going to buy at 12,000 kms. a little b mol is missing a clock. i also have its sister model, the 1991 série d, which is much harder on the suspension but still very pleasant. it only has 27,000 kms but ages better over time than the 93 model with the same maintenance. i'm too much of a fan of these becanes. my buddies call me zz-rman Rating : 5/5

French Model 2004
As satisfied as ever with my bike, it's a little sportier than the Gsxf750 I also owned, and consumes a little more fuel, especially in town. Normally, the throttle is more hard-pressed with the little 4cyl, but at steady speed, fuel consumption is similar to that of the 750. In the same vein, the engine is more responsive than torquey, which can more often than not translate into a very slight pick-up time. It's not frustrating, though, as you can still wind up and produce immediate acceleration more often than you'd expect. It's a question of being right on the money. A very versatile bike, with its protective fairing, two real seats and attractive retractable lugs, and fun in everyday use, thanks to the lively, contrasting engine. Rating : 4/5
une sportive qui cache bien son jeu
French rene Model 2003
After 8000kms, I'd say my zzr (2003) is a very good bike, with enough versatility and appeal thanks to its characterful engine and good finish. It's not perfect anywhere, but it's good enough everywhere, with an engine that boasts an impressive power range and chic sobriety for a so-called sportbike. It allows you to make good progress at very low revs right from idle on very little throttle, then a little dip when you want to open up more, and immediately the cavalry arrives generously for the displacement with a bewitching sound when you have adaptors. Truly an above-average motorcycle, the likes of which I don't see being made much any more, especially if you add up all its qualities. Rating : 4/5
French rene Model 1993
I have the 2002 vintage, little different from the first model apart from the forced air box I think. I wouldn't be as complimentary as zzr1977, although I do appreciate this bike as the miles go by. It's true that it's a well-rounded bike, with a characterful engine that's powerful at high revs, and a decent chassis that's both protective and practical. The same bike in 750, with more power in the first half of the rev count and a little less vibration for long trips, would be perfect. Rating : 4/5
French rene Model 1998
ZZr600 from 2003 with 19mkms, which I hesitated a little to buy, because it wasn't as obvious as all that at first sight, with a non-linear engine and a cycle part that needed time to be fully appreciated. In the end, after being attracted by its attractive exterior (size, protection, status), you gradually begin to tame the beast. Not only is this bike practical (protective fairing, good lighting and horn, good braking, decent comfort and roadholding, low fuel consumption, limited weight, easy center stand...), it's also lively, with an irregular but powerful and sporty engine, roughness and vibrations, a huge useful range from 1000 to 14000rpm with some unevenness. Let's just say it's got what it takes to be both a good servant and a good mistress. Few motorcycles give as much as this, especially with its unusual character among 600 4-cylinders. Admittedly, it's not really suitable for sporty riding - just dynamic riding, as it's not very forgiving when entering and exiting daring curves, and comfort is average on long trips. But its natural class and all the qualities I've mentioned make it a bike you'll want to ride on all occasions, especially as the "little" 4-cylinder gets up to temperature twice as fast as a big cube.it's also heavier to manoeuvre, but not that far behind in terms of performance. After all, the excellent smoothness and sometimes lazy, sometimes (very) efficient acceleration, depending on rpm and gear, are enough to satisfy. I can't give it top marks, but that's not such a bad thing with this endearing bike. Rating : 4/5
French Model 2004
After nearly 2,000 kilometers, I'd say the zzr is a very good bike, because it's sufficiently complete in terms of versatility and endearing thanks to its characterful engine and good finish. It's not perfect anywhere, but it's good enough everywhere, with an engine that boasts an impressive power range and a stylish sobriety for a so-called sports bike. Rating : 4/5
une vieille sportive polyvalente
French Model 2004
That's the right expression, because this bike is actually closer to a gsxf (750) of the same generation than to a recent sports bike. It offers the same versatility, despite a position that's a little too far back on the handlebars for a gt or a city car. The zzr would even be a little more flattering than the gsxf in terms of finish and practical aspects (nice lashing lugs in particular, and a much easier-to-use center stand...). Otherwise, it looks like it, with average suspension and a nice engine, although it seems more demanding in terms of maintenance. I need to get mine tuned, as it's a bike I've just bought, and I hope there are no lizards. More on that later. Rating : 3/5
Quasi parfaite
French zzr1977 Model 1993
I bought this bike almost 1 year ago. I use it almost every day, in all weathers.
As of today, I don't know of a replacement. Well... a bigger ZZR... I'll take it.
At my level, it's perfect everywhere, in every way.
Good wind and rain protection. If you need it, it's there. If you want to ride cool, it's there too. It's a delight to ride as a duo.
No kidding, this bike is a real pleasure. It borders on perfection.
My only regret: it's a shame that Mr Kawasaki doesn't make a smaller model than the 1400. Otherwise, we'd have no problem finding a replacement.

French Motardiste Model 1998
I've had a ZZR 600 for 2 years now. It's a complete and very pleasant bike

On the plus side: power (I don't know how they count horsepower now, but even the latest 100-hp roadsters have less in the engine), impressive comfort, protection (very good rain protection), stability, finish, a certain class

On the downside : The weight, but you don't feel it, but it's true that it's starting to get heavy. And handling: it's not for beginners, it's not an easy bike. It lifts when braking in corners, for example. It's not very forgiving

It wakes up from 5000 rpm, and is monstrous from 8000. Personally, I rarely exceed 9000 rpm. Beyond that, it's for exceptional situations.

In short, I have no desire to change. And I'm still impressed by its lines, which are still very much in tune with the times, even though this bike was designed over 14 years ago

Hello, this is my 3rd bike (500GSE, 650SVS and this 1996 ZZR). I find that it doesn't brake enough compared to my old SVS. The handling is also much worse. I'm very disappointed with this bike. Maxi 180Km before the reserve. It still runs well, but I can't wait to change... Rating : 5/5

It's true that this bike is nice. You can rot big cubes (depending on the rider) when it comes to the strength of the mill ????

Hide you little players on big cube I'm going to give you a cold. My fuel consumption is around 200,230 km. But good bike. Rating : 5/5

French Ben Model 1998
it's good to see that some motorcyclists think well of this 600! I've owned this bike since December 1999, and it has 62,000 kms on the clock. I'm very happy with it, despite a few problems caused by a mechanic who fitted (at 30,000 kms) the camshafts backwards, the sagoin! so I had him rebuild the upper engine (pistons, piston rings and piston pins)
Apart from that, I'd advise you to clean and check the state of cleanliness of your brake calipers (dust seal and gasket), because if one of the pistons gets stuck, the disc wears out quickly, and on the front it costs between €291 and €345 pce
otherwise, ras, it runs like a big one, it accelerates like a big one, and it brakes like a big one, so it's one of the MOST COMFORTABLE 600 GTs

French coco 59 Model 1998
I've owned my 600ZZR since I got my motorcycle licence (1997) and I've now clocked up 90000 kms. I ride it 8 months out of 12, and live in the north of France, so I'm really happy with this all-purpose machine: short rides, short distances, long distances (1200 kms in 1 day), mountains, villages, freeways, I've even ridden it on a 4/4 track! If you know how to take care of it, it'll do the trick!
I've visited England, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Holland, Germany, Andorra, Spain and France, including Corsica. Never had a breakdown, except for the clutch cable which broke (normal wear and tear). Too great, without having to disengage the clutch, you can go up to 130km/h in 2nd gear without being in the red zone! Of course, the engine is warm!
For me it's decided, my 2nd bike will be a 600ZZR!

French Gabacho Model 1998
I had this bike between 1997 and 2004 and did 100,000 km on it (it was serviced by a dealer while the warranty was still valid, and then only for "major" overhauls. Otherwise, I did the intermediate overhauls myself)
So, if you maintain it well, you shouldn't have any problems.
I've always been satisfied with it, I used it every day (it was my only vehicle) and I have no mechanical problems to report
Whether for long trips (over 900km in one day) or shorter rides, it's perfect. A real all-rounder, with an average of 260 km per fill-up
Nothing to complain about, except that I parted with it after a telescoping accident with a motorist who had widened his bend. A head-on telescoping incident that bent the bike when he and I were supposed to be going at 30kmh (and still...). But given the number of kilometers, I had to write it off as a wreck.

French iiyama Model 1998
I've been the proud owner of a 2000 ZZR for 2 weeks now, and I'm simply monstrously satisfied with it. I ride it 80km a day on freeways and public roads, and I can say that this bike is made for everyday riding with confidence. Its weight is forgotten above 40km/h. Fuel consumption is decent: 1 tank of fuel, about 250 km
However, the gearbox is a bit temperamental in 3rd gear. Taking bends and roundabouts takes a while (don't hesitate to take to the revs). In short, I'm happy with my first GT...bon route! Rating : 5/5

I've owned a 600 ZZR for 4 months and I've already done 4000 KMS. I chose it because I'm more attracted to sport bikes, but as I'm a young rider, I needed a bike that was considered a road bike. I don't regret my choice, it looks great, accelerates well over 8000 rpm and is comfortable even for the passenger. I hope the replacement is up to the challenge! Rating : 5/5
French geric29 Model 1998
After 1 year and 16,000 kms on this bike, I'm very happy with it. It's my 3rd bike and I don't regret buying it
It's easy to ride in traffic jams (I'm used to it every day at the Brest arsenal!) and on the W.E. at "not very recommended" speeds! Mind you, it's still a Sport-gt! Rating : 5/5
French virgildrum Model 1998
Well, I've just put 10,000 km on my '93 600zzr. I bought it in September 2004 and I ride it every day, no worries, very easy maintenance and no particular worries, insurance is top notch because as everyone says it's a GT and not a sports bike, for a first bike it's a superb experience!!!!!!!

French biding77 Model 1998
i've had a zzr 600 for almost 1 year now.it's a good machine,powerful braking,fairly good acceleration but you have to go above 8000rpm i've remedied that with a gearbox output sprocket with one tooth less...;)as far as handling is concerned you shouldn't hesitate to throw it around in corners,a little time to get used to it is recommended,in short it's all good.on the other hand you shouldn't fall off because the price of the fairings is insane!!!!

French rimald Model 1998
This is my first motorcycle, and the fact that it's considered a GT has enabled me to find cheaper insurance. I do a lot of driving, and it allows me to handle it well; it's reliable and powerful enough for a young licensee. Rating : 5/5
French patoc950 Model 1998
Superb, practical, comfortable motorcycle with an excellent compromise between comfort and roadholding. After 12 years off the road and 3 1100s from the heyday (XS, GS and FJ), I'm delighted with this acquisition
As far as power is concerned, I give the fazers a run for their money and hold my own against the 1200 bandits. Note that I have 32,000 kms (2001 model), original chain kit (tired), original amorto (also tired) and 5.5 l/100 !!!! I love my ZZR 600 Rating : 5/5
French Viteus Model 1998
Nice, easy to handle with good performance. I had a 1200 FJ before I got on this 600... there's a change... first of all the torque, it's true that it's a bit lacking, but that said, don't take it for a quiet little bike. I've been spoiled by a 900 Hornet and the sportbikes are still out front, but it lifts the front wheel with a bit of practice, so I'm happy with its reactions on the road, very maneuverable and light. Careful and inexpensive maintenance, a nice look... in short, it's cool, and insurance companies consider it a GT (so it's less expensive than a sports bike)... on the downside, it's not for tuning fanatics, unless you've got a heavy wallet... Seriously though: great value for money for someone just starting out who can't afford to buy and maintain a sports car. Rating : 5/5
