Its best to check the motor, because Ive seen alot of 636 motors in 600 frames...

So on the motor # on the top right side of the engine just above the clutch cover...

636 starts with ZX636
600 starts with ZX600

Does not affect it in anyway untill your dropping gears without rev matching....There isnt enough back torqe just doing a wheelie to activate the slipper...Maybe if you took out all the leaf springs and had it on its lowest possible setting, but Ive never tried that.

Excuse me? I know what Im talking about, adding or removing the leaf springs is how you adjust the slipper clutch slipping point....

There are leaf springs in the clutch basket on the slipper clutches, that determine how much back torque it takes to slip...More springs makes it harder to slip, less springs make it easier to slip....It comes with a certain amount of springs stock, but you can order more or take some out to set it to your liking..

I have never ran one with 1 or no springs, so I dont know it that is enough for it to affect wheelies...But like I said in stock setup from Kawi it isnt.
