The 2005 ZX-6R is arguably one of the most wonderfully bonkers mini-Ninjas ever built. Boasting the same 636cc capacity engine as before, Kawasaki totally overhauled it for 2005 with larger cams, a new head, polished ports and a slipper clutch to name just a few of the updates. These all conspired to produce a claimed 130bhp, which is simply insane for a supersport bike, and thanks to the big-bore motor this was backed up with a healthy 50.9ftlb of claimed torque. And the improvements didn’t stop there.
Most will know this generation as the underseat pipe Ninja, but as well as this funky exhaust routing (which was basically forced upon Kawasaki by emissions laws) the 2005 ZX-6R’s frame was all-new and tuned for track riding with a shortened wheelbase and altered weight distribution. Add to this new wheels, upgraded suspension, a cool fresh style and better brakes and you have a wonderfully aggressive and spirited machine. And one that is well worth looking out in the used market.
