Ride it like you stole it!



True I had one to the 06 10r that thing was much more powerful then the 954, but I think that the handling on 954 is better, thats just my opinion

I have the 08 ZX10 And an 08 CBR 1000 They pretty much handle the same, The Honda Is strong In the Midrange but the Kawi Is stronger up top and down low, stock for stock at the dragstrip there's about a tenth difference but I have more seat time on the Kawi 37000 Kms compared to 1500 on the CBR the Honda Is much more comfortable. My 10 Is stretched now and Ive run 9.36 @148 But I'm stretching the CBR next season to see If It will run faster than the 10. Bone stock 10.14@ 144 on the 10 and 10.23@141 on the CBR. Strapped and lowered on the 10, 9.84 @145.Swb, Didn't get a chance to strap and lower the CBR, but I'm thinking It's gonna be about the same. Hoping though that It's a little quicker.

Just curious,If you have the 10 stretched and lowered and expect the cbr to run the same times, why not leave the cbr stock so you can do some corner carving?

Re: zx-10?

I'm under the impression the CBR should be quicker, maybe I't won't be, we shall see.
