Hi,
I have just purchased a 96 ZX7R and love it however I have been told a Yoshi Pipe will give me more HP is this correct. Also any other HP tips.

Cheers

Yes it will... A slip on will get you about 3 to 5hp and a full race system will get about 7 to 10hp.
You can also take the mesh out from under the air filter as that will get you 1 to 2 hp.
Then get the bike jetted and tuned..

Great bikes with plenty of potential... if you get really hungry you can drop a zx9 motor into it....

get your suspension sorted out ASAP, so you can take full advantage of the HP you already have.......then fit braided lines so you can stop the HP you already have........first steps......

blah.. what are you his mother...

The std brakes and suspension is plenty good enuff for the 105hp the 7 puts out...

(yes, these things are a good idea, but unlike others, I won't make the assumption that you haven't already sorted these..)

Tuck your shirt in, get a haircut, clean your teeth, and get a real job !!!!!

I only assumed it because he has only *just* bought it.......

BU - if you want any road-tests or anything, let me know I *probably* have something in the library.......

hmmm yes and it seems you only sorted your suspension on the heavier and much more hp 12, a couple of weeks ago.... have you got braided lines...?
and how long have you had it..????

We'll put this into the "do as I say, not do as I do"... category..

dave u still got ur zx7r links?? that would be a good place to point...

Whatabout the zx12 in the zx7 chassis? given the fact you can apparently drop a zx9 in a zx7 chassis and a zx12 in a zx9 chassis

*does the math*

Mike are you hoping it goes straight to warp 5 and you no longer need steering and brakes with that.
