Hi Vol,

 

Long time no see you in this site. What happened,bro?

 

I sold my bike.. stopped riding for awhile lor.. Suix banned me from riding bcoz he said my bike too "bling" laio..

 

When did I do that? Don't fame me hor!

The 55 profile size started off with the 06 model. Basically the higher profile allow the rider to have a bigger lean angle. More contact patch on the tarmac during lean.

 

Judging from the trend, profile of performance tire will get higher and higher. Dunlop Sportmax already have a 190/60 profile tire in production.

 

Size like 125/80 front and 195/70 rear are also available.

 

Hi,

 

I thought the 55 profile is also stock for the '04 model?

 

Thanks!

Nope! 04/05 are using 50 profile.

Whoa....60 also have already meh? So tall profile. Suit for normal road riding or not? I heard that if the tire is too tall, then after sometime (with centre part being flat after usage), the tire will behave sluggish.

That's why most bike makers still have 50 as stock for normal road use riders.

Correct me if I am wrong.

These "taller" profile are more track focused tire whereby the bike is leaning most of its time.

LOL... how u know sia.. heard 600 damn gd to play on the track leh..

[suix]

Your only reason for getting a 600 should be the 600 in my signature with "Beet" exhaust.

[sTraZe]

get the 1000!

[sTraZe]

btw to all the ninjas..i have a question..except for dili who's the so called authorised dealer.. where n who is the kawasaki agent??

[ninja10]

LOL... how u know sia.. heard 600 damn gd to play on the track leh..

 

 

Play track...sure 600 better than 1000.

1000 a bit difficult to play track...to much torque and power. Must be real expert..than only can.

 

But 600...more manageble at Track.

 

But then again......600 tire not fat ley....

1000 tire more fat:thumb:

[Zechz]

btw to all the ninjas..i have a question..except for dili who's the so called authorised dealer.. where n who is the kawasaki agent??

[myxilplix]

Dealers are Dili, Looi's and Sin Boon at admiralty.

How on earth do you guys ride your ZX10R legally on the streets?

 

I feel like I'm gonna loose my licence real soon if I ride it often...

[myxilplix]

Legal as in the bike is road worthy, registered and has valid road tax and insurance. Legal as in i have a class 2 license.

 

Apart from that...ehhh...the riding itself is not very legal sometimes. For god's sake it's an instant license kantong if we redline it in 1st on the expressway.

 

 

 

Awesome.

[Navigator]

hi guys...dont mind me asking but whats the OTR for a 10r now? are all the 10rS agent's bike...meaning non-parallel? sorry to ask but really interested in getting the zx10 after my tp on tuesday.

but the '2008 model' looks damn sex with a shorty pipe....

Sometimes only? You guys must have amazing self control.

[myxilplix]

Public roads got traffic blocking the way. Sometimes if it's clear front and rear, i'll give it some stick.

[norz]

upps to u bro...zx10 riders usually ride it hard.

OTR is dependent on your insurance (Your age, NCB if any). Machine price should be about $22K - $22.8K

 

I suggest you make a trip down to each of the dealer to have a clear breakdown of the bike purchase package each could offered.

 

Presently, I have not heard of any parallel importer bringing Kawasaki ashore yet. However, popularity for this make is growing at an atonishing rate in the local biking community.

 

Kawasaki is becoming a dominant trend and standard setter for motorcycle design since the introduction of ZX-6R back in 2003.

 

The 04/05 ZX-10R stamped its authority in the 2004 & 2005 Master Bike shootout.

 

ZZR-1400 raised the bar further up the pole for the hypersport category. Despite its ferocious appearance, it is super duper easy to ride and handle. (Neo can back this up)

 

The up-coming 1400GTR Concour is set to lead the sport tourer pack to a new frontier.

 

I can't wait to get my hands on the Versys!

upps to u bro...zx10 riders usually ride it hard.

 

Yo, you ready for some track sessions?
