Cold Start Video:
At the end of 2002, Kawasaki installed a “cheater” 636 motor in the ZX-6R. The extra displacement was great for the majority of riders as they spent most of their time on the street and not on the track. But for the limited few that wanted to compete and had to stick under a 600cc displacement limit, the 599cc double R was the way to go.
2003 was the first year of the ZX-6RR, a package that would last through 2006. Homologation rules for AMA/FIM required a minimum production run of 1,000 units, and outside of the motor the RR was quite similar to the single R (though with the option of an accessory race kit). Despite the racier feel, the $8,399 ZX-6RR was $200 cheaper than Honda’s 600 repli-racer.
Manufactured in February 2003, this example is VIN: JKAZX4K133A002804. It is being sold by Adrenaline Cycle, they acquired it from a client that has having them do all the service work on it. The prior owner was from Florida and acquired it in May of 2018.
