08 ZX10 Rebuild and Mods Completed..!!!

Postby Maccarocks » Fri Jul 17, 2009 5:50 pm

Hi all,

Well I have finally completed the bike, rego done and mods completed. I am only awaiting the akrapovic link pipe to do away with the huge muffler pre-chamber and to let this beast breath a bit better..!! That should arrive next week..

Still as promised, here are the fully completed pics.. I love this bike and how much better does it look without the extra crap hanging off it. Intergrated tail light and 09' ZX6 mirrors and pipe make a huge difference !! 8)

Cant wait to hear your responses...!! Remember, this bike looked like shit when I picked it up..!!

Macca :kuda:

Hi Guys...

First off, I will let you all know how the link pipe goes.. fitment etc.. AND I will take more pics as I do it.. It is one of those mods that just HAS to be done..!!

As far as the indicators go.. the rear integrated taillight is very bright, LED's and looks great.. the front I have installed in the parkers with AMBER globes.. They seem bright enough at night, but during the day you just have to be careful..!! But they are still OK...!!

Amr,

My plan.. is to use this bike for a while on the road, then hopefully pick up another 08 / 09 ZX10.. and then sell my other 06 ZX10 and make the 08 into a track bike.. it's just evolution..!!! The circle of Life...??? (for my bikes that is)

Personally, I love this bike.. It feels very different to the 06 but in a better way.. and they look so good in race glass..!!

So much power.. crazy.. but we all love it... :twisted:
