the 08 model is famous for valve cover gasket issue. oil leaks through that defect.

the zx6r is only 90 hp or so compared to the cbr, r6, gixxer which are atleast 100 hp.

buy a cbr 600rr
All it takes is the jumper mod and the zx6r is back up with every other 600cc bike. Not to mention that a 4-5hp deficit over the other bikes means under 5 tenths of a second difference in the quarter mile times. With that being said I think I would rather have the bike with the best handling compared to the r6, cbr, or gixxer. The zx-6r is the best choice if you dont need to be the fastest bike on the road by inches.
