Her name is Jade. She is committed, original, faithful, powerful, exciting, happy, zealous, loved, and always have gas. She was made in 2002 , but born in 2003 and came out Kawasaki green. She is 599cc strong with no additional tweaks; she only arrived at one in every 200 dealerships across this nation (that's right, limited). She is one of a very few and prideful 2003 Kawasaki ZX-6RR and all paid for.
I left her in Newport News, VA when I had to deploy to Iraq; the caring thing to do is to prep her up before departure, right? No, not this one. I left her in my insect infested mother in-law's back yard (because I have no garage, and couldn't afford anymore storage space) alone but some what protected with a motorcycle cover, and her battery still connected. Let me say that again. Battery still connected. As expected, she was dead when I came home; she lit up, but didn't have enough juice to wake up and start. Her rear tire had less than five psi.
My wife and I had to move to TX, so we had to rent a 16 ft truck to hall our stuff including Jade. I had to fill her rear with air just to help me push her up on the ramp into the truck. Talk about a pucker factor pushing her up.
Anyway, we got to TX safe. Happy to say we got ourselves a garage here, so our sense of security has heightened. Remind you that I haven't heard her get turned on since I came home from Iraq; I had to slow charge her up all night to get her up to par. All I can say now, people, is SHE'S ALIVE!!!

Ha, forget the bike man... I understand your excitement, but I'm just glad YOU'RE back from Iraq alive. Welcome back, by the way. I'm in the army so i know how it goes.

 

hahaha that was rather well written

she sure is a looker glad you were able to revive her

 

02!?!? cradle robber, u need some one with experience like my 88

 

hah, imma sound lik a newb.. but whats the difference between the zx-6r and the zx-6rr?

 

zx6r = 636cc
zx6rr = 599cc

Oh and I forgot to mention that the zx6rr is race legal is the 600 class. The zx6r is not

 

good to hear its back on the road. thank you for protecting our freedom and serving your country

 

Glad you made it back from this hell-hole in one piece. I'm suprised the boredom didn't kill you like it's threatening to do to me. I know your excitement. I can't wait until I can get home and ride. I took the battery out, added fuel stabilizer, and did everything I could to prep mine before I had to come back over here. Keep the wheels down! (at least one of them)

 

glad ur back and reunited with her!!

 

my bike being a 95, do i fall in the 636cc? or is mine a 599?
