Re: 2016 ZX10R
From performance bikes blog...
ZX-10R first impressions: much improved. Much sweeter steering, more nimble, better brakes and electronics. One of the old bikes biggest issues, shock fade, is gone - the Balance Free suspension maintains composure despite 35-centigrade heat here in Sepang. Adjustment is fine too - a quarter-turn of compression damping transformed corner exit. It's easier and faster, but it does lack the torquey delivery of the BMW S1000RR - it'll have to work hard to surpass the Beemer's all-conquering speed over a lap. We'll find out very soon. Time to cool down now, unless you want to read my obituary instead of a road test... CN

Re: 2016 ZX10R
Sounds like the rear shock is doing its job. A quarter turn to notice the difference isn't much.

Re: 2016 ZX10R
Lets face it, 90% of owners don't use all the power in their bike anyway (besides a race down the bypass).. For me this bike symbolises control meeting power. Maybe that 90% may come down to 85%.
The video that was posted with this bike going around the track was staggering - the rider was blisteringly quick and you could tell it was effortless... that's what I want!!!
