Re: 05-06 636 dislikes?
ya i hear wat ur saying bro....but i have been were ur at about "just wanting something new" big mistake......i went from the 07 zx6r, traded it for an 05 had major wiring problems....traded it and went back to the 04 and that was the biggest waste of $$$$ and time ever!!!! the 05 is ok but the 04 blows it outta the water over alll!!!!!! im really happy with the 04!!!!! 
but hey if u have the extra money to blow.......get an 05 for a bit till u realise u should have listened to DURTY!!! :YEAH
good luck with the 05 man great for stoppies and the 07 is even better for stoppies, maybe u should get the 08 :YEAH

i went from the 30-04 to 05-06 and i love mine other than the normal stuff that breaks ( rearsets , stock fairing stay , ect. ) the bike is great much smoother and alot better for stoppies , both has their pros and cons but overall i like the 05-06 better . and you can pull through just fine with full fairing and aftermarket triple with clip-ons on top , you can resolve the tank issue with a lil metal fab work and i never had a problem with the kleen air mod , i never did one and i stall it and do merk stuff and mines never smoked so.....

its an amaing bike, and really all in how you set it up. the tank dents are great cuz you can do a nice clean dent without even having to repaint or bondo and it doesnt kill your gas carrying capacity like on regular tanks. ive never heard of anyone complain bout the rearset position before, feels just fine to me. to stop the front rearsets from breaking just cut the peg down like 1/4 inch and take the peg "feeler" out and you will never break them. you have to be carefull with shifting on these bikes cuz they are prone to tranny problems as the gears are NOT undercut and dont shift as smooth as the 03/04 or any other bike that ive been on. pull throughs are challenging on this bike but can be easily remedied by a hohey tripple or mx bars if u dont care what your bike looks like haha. if you dont run plastics you might have to reinforce the radiator mounts, with plastics ive never had a problem on either of mine. plastic ram air is prone to break if you rat trap alot. tail light will out for sure if u dont glue that thing in there. omr subcage will get rid of the weak *** rearsets in the back. its a good solid bike if you take care of it and do what should be done, and absolutely the smoothest power delivery ive ever felt on a bike, never dull but no suprises.

Hondas suck for handle bar clearance, and you cant do much turning and/or flipping without having to chop your upper 12". Ive turned and flipped stock clipons on the 03/04, 05/06 and the 07/08 without even having to cut or trim anything....:YEAH
