If the question is "what's a better trackbike than a zx6r?"

[weeksy]

With a few extra criteria thrown in.

Then what's the answer?

1. Traction Control required
2. Not 1000cc / 150+ bhp
3. Sportsbike
For me, I see it as a list of

Ducati 899 panigale
2013+ zx6r
2918+ Yamaha R6
MV Agusta F800

But what else am I missing and why.

Plus, out of that list, which are you picking and why?

[Yorick]

I want the exact opposite

Yeah but you're not my missus so I don't have to find your answer for you

[cheb]

A KX250, on the right track.

[Skub]

Look at it another way. What does she dislike about the ZX6R?

Nothing at all, she'll have owned it 3 years soon and just time to try something new with some more mod cons too.

KTM engines too, so a double win

The new 'budget' one is only $15,000 USD

EDIT:

There's a UK website too, you only need £16k for the 690 EVO 2S... 80bhp and 125kg!

Ha ha. You trying to get me stabbed with a turkey knife?

[KungFooBob]

What about a pukka race bike tho'

One built by someone else to a high standard, maybe a super twin?

I don't care if it's road, race, track. It just needs to tick the criteria.

Currently topping the list

I reckon she'd go faster on something like this...

It's an interesting question. One I don't think we'll find out the answer to.

IME, that bit more power helps. Rather than hinders. Of course there's a limit to that.
On the XSR I can stay with her, but on the 690 I couldn't, not even close, the extra power of the XSR ours me in a position where I can ride less hard for a faster lap time.

Out of that list i would have the 2918 R6, I'm sure by then they will be epic

but until then i would probably go MV, full tronics, lovely looking, good handling and the best sounding .

A 675 doesn't need it.

That's irrelevant. Whether the bike needs it or not isn't in the discussion. She wants to try a bike with modern electronics, from QS to traction, to abs. Whether someone else needs it to go faster isn't open to discussion.

Aha. I see. She can try mine at Portimao

200bhp 1000, you try and persuade her. Let me know how that goes for you.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Take 1 of the spark plugs out 150bhp bike.

No need to thank me for that top tip.
