ZX10R Kiwi

Post by BIGBOSSMAN »

G'day from NZ - I'm Gazza from Auckland, this beaut is my first ride since throwing my blessed RG500 down the road in '86. Never owned a Kwaka before, but saw the light eventually. She's pretty much stock, except for the Arrow exhaust, DNA filter and power commander. Yum yum!

i'm tipping the zx10 might be a bit more lively than the rg, and they were a pretty wild thing.

Thanks guys, yes I'm a shade older and wiser than the old RG days - no sliding rear tyre going into corners just yet! I think it's easier to ride, believe it or not. Makes an absolute shitload of power, absa lutely the best bike I've ever owned, period. I mean, how much better can it get??!!
