Protect and Perform: KAWASAKI ZX-6R Custom

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "KAWASAKI ZX-6R" custom by Webike community user "Chaco". The owner of this bike also rides on the track, so customization to protect critical parts of the machine in case of accidents and modifications suitable for racing are noticeable. The stock option engine guards, which can be bolted-on, were chosen. The guards extend sideways to prevent damage to the engine, frame, and cowl. Additionally, BABYFACE(Sato Racing) Axle Protectors are installed on the front axles, which protect the front forks from damage in the event of a fall. Considering the possibility of having to replace the front forks in the worst case scenario, this is a wise investment. On the swingarm, J Trip Duracon(R) Swingarm Hook Bolts are installed. This part doubles as both a swingarm hook bolt and a slider. It's a simple, practical part made of Duracon that doesn't show scratches easily, which makes it highly regarded by riders.

The windshield is fitted with a Puig Racing Windshield R-Racer, made of 3mm-thick, impact-resistant acrylic resin. Developed in collaboration with a racing team, this windshield is highly durable and significantly reduces aerodynamic drag when riding on the track. For measuring lap times, a CLEVER LIGHT ZiiX Lap Timer is installed. The steps use a K-FACTORY Footpeg Bracket and a Valter Moto Components Step Up Kit, allowing the owner to adjust them to his preferred positions.

At the rear, a lightweight aluminum TANAX Plate Hook 3 is mounted for touring purposes. Despite its compact design, it provides both additional luggage hooks and a license plate guard. Easy to install, it is ideal for loading luggage on the rear seat. Furthermore, the sandblasting and anodizing process makes it resistant to scratches and highly durable.
