You beat me to the punch!
I am HAPPY to say that the Kawasaki 636 engine is DEAD after the 2006 model year!!!! Thank goodness - now I hope the silly discussions that have rambled on about this stupid engine will finally STOP!
Thank-you NMMA for NOT implementing 636 engines and staking our future on ONE manufacturer. It was only a matter of time before Kawasaki woke up and in 2007 the alarm sounded!
Now if we can come to our senses and ELIMINATE the 1mm overbore (619cc) and make the NMMA a 600cc only organization - we can really save some money in the future!
The 619cc rule is just like the 270cc rule - the engine builders will take large amounts of $$$ to build a 619cc engine for you from a perfectly good 600cc engine.
