Quick note before we get into it: the listing title calls this a ZX6R. The VIN says otherwise. This is the ZX-6E, the sport-touring sibling with the integrated full fairing, more upright ergonomics, and mirrors that actually belong on a street bike. Not a knock. Just a different animal, and one that almost nobody kept.

The whole point of this bike is to ride miles and miles. And most did exactly that, for years, until the fairings cracked and the carbs gummed up and the bikes quietly disappeared.

This one has 2,216 miles on it. In nearly 30 years.

The photos back it up. Paint is deep and glossy with no visible cracks or repairs in the fairings. Engine cases are clean and unscratched. Switchgear shows almost no wear. The aluminum frame rails are spotless. Original tool kit still lives under the seat. This bike has been sitting, not suffering.

The ZX-6E doesn’t carry the collector cachet of the race-spec ZX-6R/F, but a dead-stock survivor with this kind of mileage at $4,300 is hard to argue with. You’re not going to find another one this clean on Craigslist. You might not find another one this clean anywhere.

At $4,300 with 2,216 miles and a clean title, this is a great opportunity to actually ride a nearly 30-year-old bike that looks like it just rolled out of the showroom. Someone’s going to have a lot of fun on this thing.

Good luck to the buyer and seller!
