zx10r with different exhaust

[ivan]

more bad luck just lost my job maybe gonna have to sell the 10

[smithy5]

its hard to imagine a bike falling off its stand just with a flat tyre. on a bit of a hill?,does that stand really sit the 10 that far upright?

At least it was a stationary drop. Whats the damage??

Sorry to hear about the drop Ivan..... It pisses you off I bet.........

Yes the 10 is too far upright on the stand........... you cannot park on the slightest of a downhill slope........ The stand dosn't go forward enough and there is no adjustment....... i'm gunna cut my stand shorter or put a bend in it to avoid this happening..........

Paddo had a similar experience but it was the bars turned away from the direction of lean, tyre went flat & over she went......Mental note: DONT TURN THE BARS THE OPPOSITE LOCK FOR PARKING!

I'm thinking of doing same thing or buying the adjustable stand of eBay.

Gotta watch these 06/07 10's mate , they have a very bad habit of throwing themselves at the ground at little or no speed.

Sounds like you got odd lightly ... Still sux though ... sorry to hear it.

Remember Fleabay is your friend

yea the scratches got covered buy some monster stickers

same sorta thing happened to me. Left it on the most gentle slope faceing down the slope on my driveway and it just rolled and fell over. Luckly the handle bars hit the dirt but still crushed the coolant overflow container and put some big dirty scrtches on the left side of the fairing. Probably 400$ off ebay to replace but its NOT that noticable that i desperately need it replaced. Chances are that something minor will happen just after they are replaced

I thought it was just me ....... My old ride was prob 70-80kg heavier and I could turn it on 5 cents just about .........
As you say, my 07, 10 wants to hit the deck during u-turns and low speeds etc...... Is this a known problem and if so are there any adjustments that can be done to fix it ........

i don't have problem at low or hay speeds just standing still. think the stand is to long

[zx-10r]

yes, while its stationary its not much good parked anywhere except on the perfectly flat.
