Saw my first 2004 R1 last week...just caught a glance, but I loved the underseat exhausts and the funky swingarm. Wouldn't like to be a pillion on one though, the seat is tiny and the footpegs are incredibly high...my knees would be up around my ears lol!

 

By the way, has anybody seen any ZX10R vs R1 reviews? If so, which bike comes out on top? (Fingers crossed for the Ninja!)

 

Cheers,

Steve

I think that the specs of two bikes are pretty close so it what matters most is the handling. Handling then is as personal as it can get becos each has a diff riding style although basic techniques apply.

 

it seems most mags still rate the R1 as the best handler in its class althought the Ten gives more power.

 

For me the Kawasaki word alone on the tank is a winner, heehee. (not to say Yammy no good)

Don't know why I didn't think of it before, but I just checked out MCN (the UK's best selling bike magazine) and I found this group test...

 

2004 Yamaha R1, GSX-R1000, ZX-10R, Fireblade Shootout

 

I won't ruin it by telling you the results of the shootout, but how the reviewers ranked the 4 bikes was jaw-droppingly surprising...

 

Also, you might be interested in this road test...it doesn't include the R1 though

 

GSX-R1000, ZX-10R and Fireblade on British Roads

 

Enjoy!!!

Geordie,

 

There are many mags that rated the ZX top...and also mags rated the R1 best. I think they are so darn close ,a better rider will be faster on any of them. The HONDA and the SUzook aint bad either.. though mostly the Yam and the K are head to head in most test.

 

Buy what u like is best is the key. For me its the big K!

Based on the 4 bikes, this is how i rank them

 

 

 

 

 

1st choice ZX10R (green)

2nd choice ZX10R (black)

3rd choice ZX10R (blue)

4th choice ZX10R (orange)

 

...hahahha

What didn't kill me, made me FASTER!!!

LOL! Nice top 4!!! I disagree though...I know I'm going against Kawasaki tradition when I say this, but I prefer blue to green

 

More seriously, it seems that the reviewers' personal preferences are the most important thing in ranking the bikes...if these particular reviewers had placed more emphasis on track day fun then the ZX10R would have won hands down...instead they gave more weight to the road-going manners of the bikes so that the R1 and Blade came top, even though everyone agreed that the Blade was a bit boring to ride in comparison.

 

I'd be interested to hear from ZX10R riders about what they think...is it really too uncomfortable? Is the back end really too stiff? Is the fuel injection really poor in the mid range? Are the brakes really wooden on the roads?

None of those things u mentioned seem to be problems that cannot be fixed easily.

 

As for brakes...... first time I heard that kinda comment about the 10r.
