Hi all.
I just purchased a 2016 ZX10R KRT with 12 miles on it.

at 12 miles...let me guess, you found a dealer up here that offers test rides.

No, I bought the bike from a coworker that bought it new in June 2018.

Get him fired for being mentally unsound. Only a crazy person would have a ZX10R at their disposal and not ride it!

The bike does have a problem. Don't know how, but the torque limiter gear that the starter spins to start the bike, has missing teeth.

Did your coworker have the transmission recall done? If not, something to schedule.

He had it to the shop once to change the oil. He took it there in a truck.
The answer is he didn't have the recall done.
I just checked and the recall starts at vin 000014 and mine is 000182, so my bike is affected.

Replaced the gear for the starter and now it starts. Have got it up to just under 400 miles now. I can't wait to see what this thing will do after its broke in and I can open it up.
