I actually prefer my 9 most likely cause of the comfortable factor like i know my bike, i know what it can and cant do. i am still seriously considering the 10 on the belief the more i ride it the better it gets. Anyways just wondering if i could hear some pros about the 10. Or differences people have found between the two. And also what kind of changes if any people have made to thier 10`s.
Thanks.
What year model 10?, and 08 or 09 I presume if its new (and what year model 9 for that matter)
As a "road bike" the nine is still quite handy (well mine is anyway), every time I jump off the rex and give the 9 some stick I go back to the ZRX and realise that the 9 is still a VERY quick motorcycle. Too quick for most places with draconian enforcement of speed limits.
Its also very comfy as well.
Saying that I rode Mick C's titanium 05 on the CDT and it felt quite nice, I aslo rode the 08 and thought it was very capable but what I didnt like was the way it sanitised the speed and made it no fun to ride at even double the speed linit - fine if your going for WSB glory but not good if you need a licence or work etc..
Another reason why I love my ZRX
