Which is the best model zx10?

[sillywilly]

Thinking about selling the 14 and getting a 10 which model would be the pick of them and why? 2004 to 2010.

04-05 raw angry and fast handling. Engine a bit noisy.

06-07 not as angry, smoother and more too end. Handling a bit slower. Damper is standard but needs a revalve.

08-10 better looking than the 06-07, better brakes, better forks don't think thy made much more power than the 06-07 but?

11-13 more top end smooth power delivery, abs, traction control, better chassis and suspension

Woohoo

08-10 better looking than the 06-07 You smokin crack?

Nope. Gumby is ugly!

Don't get all biased now you own one

Personally, I Love the rawness of the crim.

cheers fellas. wattie how is your 10 comfort wise with the high bars? I mainly do between 400 to 500 k days with the odd 700klm day across to bruthen and back do u recon this would be doable on a 10 with a bar conversion kit or am i dreaming ?

GFC?

The bars don't really make much difference for comfort I don't think.
It just changes a bit of weight from your arms to your arse instead.

But I do 500km days no worries.

And from PI to Tintaldra is a decent trek and is no worries with mx bars or not.

Don't quote me but I'm pretty sure your the 2nd person I've heard say they like the 08 .....On a seriouse not speak to nelso if your after that model when I was looking he told me they changed the engine mount or angle in the 09 onward's for better handling??????

06/07 great ride, put this bike on the road after riding a 14 for quite some time, thought I would get punished considering I am the wrong side of %) years of age. Took her to and from PI last year with no dramas at all. I was really surprised and could happily do 500 - 600 km days.

Yeah there was a slight change in 09 or 10.
