    Hmm, 35 quid. Bit more of a bargain!

    It has to be the cheapest way that I've heard of to buy horsepower and
    the bike didn't need a PC111 to run ok on a K&N so I was quite happy
    with my morning. Slick charged me £70 (or thereabouts) to do a couple
    of runs and supply the filter but I was expected to fit the filter for
    myself.

    Did you fit the modified airbox?

    I wish I had the figures before I fitted the PC, micron and K+N. The gains
    made were done through fuelling only. I don't think the TRE adds power but
    it may release some in the lower gears.

    Well, having just got back from collecting it, I think you lot are
    nuts to want to give it more power. And I'm still stuck below 7k rpm
    for a few miles.

    Well for the whole 30 miles I've ridden it...

    Yeah. Riding position near as dammit the same as the GSXR. well
    behaved at town speeds, just ride around in second. Absolutely need a
    double bubble screen as the speedo is obscured by the standard one.
    Clocks are lovely, really nice piece of design.

    Sounds bloody gorgeous with the Akrapovic cans on but not offensively
    loud.

    And it looks fantastic all in black with the carbon cans.

  12. Is your current Kwak going or is the ZX10 an addition to the stable?

    I'm adding a 10R, as I've always said, the ZRX is a keeper and now it's
    already depreciated I'd be stupid to sell it.

    Nope, I've not forgottten, I've just gained 4 years more experience and
    find the ZRX sometimes runs out of steam. 2 bikes = best of both
    worlds.

    ginge banged the rocks together and they said :
    We don't get camouflaged streets in Milton Keynes.

  18. Nice bike mister. They are getting very common. I put LSL Tour match
    bars on mine to make it better round town. Then a Penske rear shock to
    stop being punted into the air. It goes like f*ck mind ewe.

    So will the bespectacled Lord of the Rings stand in admit that his bike
    is beige I wonder?

    I think I'll be just putting an MRA double bubble screen on, and leaving
    it stock.
    He will. Banzai Beige.

    It's not the power but the way it's delivered.
