Probably a ZX636. If u notice how close the engine sits in the frame, u don't have much clearance left. Best thing I could tell u is, bored it out. Blueprint it.

What ppl wish for and what is reality is two different things. The length on a ZX10 or9 would be too long to fit inside the frame. I have a 636 and I doubt you can fit a bigger motor inside that 600 frame. You have to realize that the mounting bolt hole must match and with a bigger motor, I doubt it will fit. Best thing I could tell you is to bore it out. Re work the engine.

Good luck with that. I am not sure on what the frame differences are, but the 6r and 10r fiche numbers do not match up.

Also I'm sure you will have to change the wireharness and ecu as well . But then again if you have the money to spend, then anything is possible, but smart move to do that, not a good one. I think that it would be more of a challenge then to just bore out your motor you have now. Just my thought, so plz don't get offended.
