    Does the stock Gen 4 passsenger/pillion bracket and footpegs fit the Gen5? They look quite the same in picures... Gen4 bracket/footpegs vs.Gen5 bracket/footpegs

    What’s up? Could use some help, recently in the past week or so my bike has been having issues. While riding, if I full throttle or blip the throttle it over revs. It progressively gets worst the higher the gears I go and normally occurs the most at 3rd gear or higher. 1st is not bad, 2nd is...
  3. Welcome Newbies!
    I have had my bike and forum membership for around 3 months but have never got around to introducing myself and my bike. I am 34 years old and have been on 2 wheels since age 12, starting with a Puch moped, then a crusty Yamaha Xs400. After having several metric cruisers, I moved into the...

    How is it going guys. I just swapped the motor out of this 2012 ZX10R & put in a replacement engine from a 2013 ZX10R. When I turn the key to the on position the coolant temps tire reads 176 degrees when completely cold. The bike also won’t start. It clicks once and then starts priming the fuel...

    Hey guys, new zx10r owner here, its a 2012. just been noticing my bikes temperature usually sits around 85 Celsius up to 100 plus Celsius ( 185F to 215F), today it hit 103C and only went below 100 after a short period riding, as usually the ambient temperature gives a false reading while...
  6. The ZX-10R
    Hey guys, let start off by saying I am highly knowledgeable in motorcycles and I am a shop owner. This is a new project for me and I am just wanting to know what all I'm going to need for my gen 3 wheel swap on my new Gen 4. I have measured the wheels and offset spacing on both Generations...
  7. The ZX-10R
    Hey all, So as some of you will know fron the other thread, I bought a gen 4 last week. I was unsure if it had been flashed as it's got a decat and end can plus other mods, and someone mentioned that I should try changing TC settings on the move. Well, lo and behold, I can change them on the...
  8. The ZX-10R
    ...but I've finally put down a deposit to buy a Gen 4 :biggrin: Due to pick up in a couple of weeks. I can actually choose any of the 10s they have in stock though which is nice if I don't like it in person. Wanted to ask, are there any recalls on this model that I need to check that have...

    So I've figured out my starter motor has carked it and was wondering if anyone knows how to get to it to replace it? Do you take the tank off and come through the top or can you remove the fairing and go through the side? Cheers.
  10. Stunt
    Hello all! I've been looking for a crash cage, preferably race rails, for a little over 3 weeks now, and have not found a SINGLE one for the Gen 4. The newest I've found is for the Gen 2 10r, and I wanted to know if any fellow Gen 4 riders have had the same problem? Or if you've found any and...

  13. The ZX-10R
    I've got a 2004 ZX-10R that is fully awesome and handles great... doesn't even have a damper, and I don't think it needs one. I've never ridden any of the later gens, but I assumed that they would handle as well or better. So it was really bizarre when talking with another rider about bikes, and...
  14. The ZX-10R
    Hello Folks, I am somewhat new to the site, I had previously owned a 07 zx10r which got stolen, then with the insurance money I decided to step up the game and got a 2014 zx10r / ABS; it is my first ever brand new bike and would like to know what is the best way to break in the bike. I read in...

    I'm looking to upgrade lighting, I'm thinking morimoto mini from TRS. been searching and can't find much advice on what setup to run. Has anyone put these in, if so what did you use? HIDs good or bad on a bike, I'm a bit worried with the cutoff line leaned over in the corners. Pictures, advice...
  16. The ZX-10R
    I'm in the market for a gen 4 zx-10r, woo hoo. I'm looking for a very very lightly used 2012. But the issue I'm running into is that I've looked on craigslist and a couple motorcycle sales pages.

    i have a 2012 with ABS, and do mostly track days. When I brake hard (entering a turn), the bike wobbles badly as the ABS does its job and sometimes, the brakes just "go away", meaning I lose almost all stopping power. It's messing with my head (and my laptimes). So I'm going to disable the ABS...

    Greetings, I'm new to the ZX-10R -- Just purchased a "New" 2011 after my K7 GSX-R750 was hit and damaged fairly bad -- while it was parked in NYC... :rolleyes: I've been riding for 2 years, put about 12,000-14,000 miles on my bike, probably 80% highway (Taconic St PKwy) and probably 20% NYC...
