Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R vs Kawasaki Z800

We recently got fortunate enough to spend some quality time with the Ninja ZX-6R and it turned out to be a largely amazing and slightly painful experience.

“Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely”. You’ve heard this before, I’m sure – but there also is such a thing as too much power, although oligarchs, dictators and racers will try to convince you otherwise. The world’s quickest motorcycles are only as quick as the rickshaw moving over in our country, so a middleweight motorcycle will make more sense. That’s the role that the Kawasaki Z800 hopes to play; it is the voice of reason in the insane world of the CBU motorcycle in the Indian marketplace. But does its sanity make a good enough case to pass up the extra 200cc and the frills that come along with it?
