Hey yall omg just wanted to share my experience with my ZX10. man I love this thing, I was so close to closing on a 2016 Aprilia RF but this was presented far better cash deal so I jumped on it and I feel like a king on it not going to lie, my only doubts is when a S1000 shows up but that will soon be a distant memory the more I truly unlock the potential of this bike. anyway wanted to share my experiences. Here on Thursday nights we have a events called bike night and sundays are called Sunday Funday. every bike and I mean every bike regardless of mods has not been able to hang let alone present a challenge can be rider error but win is a win right. heres my list of kills stock and modded

Stock / all runs except the 2014 I shifted at 12k no need to hit the shift light set at 13.5 50mph rolls
1) 2006 Honda CBR 1k: PC, exhaust, chain sprocket, air filter
2) 2006 Honda CBR 1k: PC, full exhaust, chain sprocket, engine head work, air filter
3) 2014 Honda CBR 1k: PC5 w autotune, full exhaust, sprockets, air filter
4) 2005 R1: PC, exhaust everything unknown
5) 2004 Gixxer 1k: Exhaust, rest unknown

List of my mods:
Graves exhaust slip on, Woolich Flash / mapshares and personal settings, 520 3d zzz chain renthal ultra light front sprocket 16T, Supersprox rear sprocket 40T(181mph max), DNA Air Filter, AIS removed, Graves block off plates installed, Exup motor and cables removed, moto dynamics fender eliminator, moto dynamics led taillight, TRex frame sliders.

Kills:
1) 2015 ZX10r: Flash / rest stock
2) 2014 zx10r: Exhaust, flash, chain and sprockets
3) 2009 zx10r: Akro full exhaust, flash, PC5, chain sprockets, K&N filter / 2nd and 3rd gear rolls he got the jump I hunt him down and pass him in 4th no need to hit 6th, we started from 40, 50 60/ used shift light until 4th gear then it was a clear walk and he backed off, he said his top end was 195 but if he would have stayed in the race he probably would have caught me but if I'm passing at 4th gear I'm walking him all the way til I max at 181 the gap would have been crazy huge.
4) 2008 CBR 1k: Voodoo exhaust, PC rest unknown
5) not sure year EBR 1190: exhaust rest unknown
6) Gixxer 750: doesn't matter he should have known better lol
7) my buddies 2008 Gixxer 1000: K&N filter, Two brothers exhaust, two brothers juice box, chain and sprockets, woodcraft rearsets


Next mods before summer
Graves Headers
Kawasaki Intake Race cam
Built head, port polish oversized valves
custom tune F mode 93 oct
custom tune M mode MR12

Goal 210 to 215whp all motor on MR12 / 200whp pump the cam and head work should really get me close if not pass what I want, during winter months my do pistons and rods just for a peace of mind thing. but OMG I love this bike what do yall think what the best race moment or just WOW factor you ve had with your bike that makes you glad you chose it?

Lol nah I don't drink, was at bike night and just slated about 4 people trying to run me. Just thinking damn my bike not even at the point where I can say I'm content.lol headers race intake cam and tune for 93 and mr12 and I'm satisfied maybe.
Should feel good when yer dusting peeps and havent even really started modding yet! I think youll be plenty satisfied with the future setup, especially if geared a little. I have head work, a cam, comp bump, full system on my GenII and frankly it never gets old. The respect level goes up considerably. Just get ready to combat heat issues when you do all that - there are ways - just be ready though.

Looking forward to it. I gotta get salvo hoses and I can put my 2.0 rad cap back on. Going to go back to stock gearing for more top end the 16/40 is cool I can wheelie in 3rd but miss my top end.
Another slaying 2016 Audi R8
Was a nice cat and mouse on highway. then we started at 60 I stayed in 4th she stayed in it til 175. Was fun as hell.

You need a GoPro. I'd like to watch you race an R8. Make that 2 GoPro 1 fore one aft.

From my experience the R8 would be no match.
Cars have to have close to 1000 hp to be able to beat a liter bike.

Ive had 2 go pros Hero 3 and 4 lost both one fell off my helmet the other stolen at a bike event. The vids I have take forever to upload to youtube. then I had to stop cause my youtube name is my government name so couldn't risk my chain of command seeing me doing 140+ mph on highways regardless how empty they are would be a quick Article 15 and possible rank deduction lol I'm setting up another account as we speak.
Another 2 gixxers slayed. 1 stock the other PC full exhaust filter and 520 conv.
Next on the list is a 07 hayabusa. That has a power commander, full 2 brothers exhIst and filter. Gave him 2 bikes on the 3rd run and man was it tragic. Idk how kawi going to upgrade this thing. Love my bike
