Re: ZX10R Review
I've not bought that "IL4s are bland" crap. The induction roar on the 6r and 10r is intoxicating and I love the howl you get as you spank it.

ZX10R Review
Fitted the GB Racing covers today and in addition to the obvious crash protection they provide I think the Black Covers in addition with the Carbon Heel Guards I recently fitted help improve the looks and make the package look more finished

Re: 2016 ZX10R
Did you clean your air filter out after the trip this year, Blade?
Its an improvement with the carbon heel guards and case covers.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/emoticon-0100-smile.gif)

Re: ZX10R Review
I know you wouldn't go for it Blade but I reckon a carbon fibre front mudguard would really set that bike off nicely.
No issue with the green one, just my personal taste. I still like carbon.

Re: ZX10R Review
Cheers guys appreciate the comments.
I'm happy with it green tbh Kwacky and besides I'm trying hard not to mod any further I think I have got her how I like her. Good balance of looks, performance and tech imo![Laughing out loud (lol)](./images/smilies/emoticon-0140-rofl.gif)

Re: ZX10R Review
Haha carbon fetish.
Tbh I don't think carbon suits the green and black of my bike. A mate on the zx10r forum fitted a lot of carbon to his zx10r and it looked too blingy imo
Some bikes suit carbon and some don't and I perosnally think the green and black on my ten is better as is. I only fitted the carbon heel guards to get rid of the shiny alloy oem heel guards.
