| Im a member on the kawiforums at www.kawiforums.com and it seems like every other person that is a proud owner of a 07' kawasaki zx6r is having major issues with the motors of the motorcycle. the cams failing and the motors having an aggressive tick. i believe that this is very dangerous and can lead to serious injuries and very possibly death. the malfunction of such parts should be recalled because of the volume of complaints and problems on the forums. im sure kawasaki doesn't want something so silly like this painted onto their reputation. hopefully, this problem will be resolved and the customers would be safe and very happy to own the bike they bought and represent. *tr | |||

| The klr 650 part know as the doohickey the weld fails after so time and you can buy an after market part to fix the problem but why should i have to do this on my bike that has only 1,100 miles and it is time consuming or the dealer cost is very high . *tr | |||
