In different countries, this model could have different names. For example, ZX600 or ZX-6 Ninja. That is why the Kawasaki ZZ-R600 is often confused with the sporty [[Kawasaki_ZX-6R_ (636) | Kawasaki ZX-6R]], but the early versions (1995-1999) of this model were very different in appearance from the Kawasaki ZZR 600. The only exceptions are the models since 2006, intended for the North American market - under the name ZZR 600 there was sold a sports model [[Kawasaki_ZX-6R_ (636) | Kawasaki ZX-6R]] 2000-2002.
