Title: 2004 ZX10R, Let's Do Stuff
Post by: comment on August 25, 2014, 01:07:21 PM
So this is where I started.

Excellent amounts of power but wow, terrible brakes. Especially after being used to Brembo OEM from my RSV.

First thing to sort, full brake conversion. Pictures aren't the finished article as I moved to 310mm rotors but you get the idea.

I decree this to be the worst tail tidy known to man. One £5 eBay jobby later and...

This area seems to be cluttered. Let's fix that.

Some simple jiggery pokery and an excellent result. Yes, there's a Translogic QS4 in there but I'd gather by now we all know what they look like.

Random backfires off the throttle and no real use, so you're coming out.

Much better.

Just to add, Pipercross air filter has been thrown in, R1 throttle tube, dual compound pro grips and a fine F.Fabri DB screen which was won for a bargain £20. PC3 going in shortly and it's well on its way to being the bike I want it to be.

Brake upgrade is a good shout. I did similar on my B1 636, they are so much nicer now.
