2014 ZX10R Track Bike Build
« on: April 23, 2014, 09:22:25 PM »

Well I've made a start.

It looked like this when I picked it up



Up onto the workbench



Couple of hours later





Started to put it back together. Pair of BST's fitted with ceramic bearings and started modding the wiring loom for removal of the PAIR system,


Progress will be slow, got a shit load of stuff on order, but a lot of its coming from the States, I'll post up as I work on it.

I'll be keeping an eye on this build. Looks good. What else do you have planned for the bike?

Just starting with a set of BST,s, oh yes now we're talking.

I was watching the clock on the wall to see how long it took you to strip things off lol.

It's going to be an epic 10 me thinks when it's done.  :icon_thumright:

Notice what the clocks are mounted in?

I'm a well known BST wrecker, one set at Donny, highsiding coming out of Coppice estimated at 120mph by the watching marshal and I quote "thats the best crash I've ever seen and I've been marshalling Coppice for 7 years" and another set in Almeria paddock, that would be after brake failure at the end of the back straight, 172 mph according to the laptimer. I jumped off the bike as soon as I got on the gravel, it continued through the gravel trap, summersaulted the tyre wall and ended up in the paddock.

Its an expensive habit I'm trying to break

Samco Hoses are go


Bodywork trial fit. Its pretty good out the box, minimal fettling and holes to drill, but I need to do some work to it to get it 100% before painting.

No progress for last week, was forced to spend 3 days riding round Valencia, then as we were already over in Spain it seemed rude not to go to Benidorm for 3 days.

I'll hopefully be able to report progress week after next, lots of shiny things arriving.

Right, had some time this week to work on the Ten.

Nice package arrived from the States containing, Full Ti Evo system, Woodcraft cases,  Driven rearsets, Smog block off plates and fuel cap.

Sourced in this Country, Ohlins TTX GP shock and plus 25mm clipons from the Harris brothers, a natty little Lithium Ion Battery which weighs bugger all, Activ quick throttle, AVS shorty clutch lever, Gilles crash bungs and a nice box of CF Mudguard, hugger, frame and swingarm covers from Jap4performance, nice Tracktanium lever guard from Parkitt racing.

I saved the HPK calipers and RCS m/c off my gixer as they fit without mods.

I also made a nice little bracket to mount my starlane on.

First job was getting rid of the pair system, which meant replacing the inlet plates on the rocker cover with block off plates, then replacing the solenoids with resistors to stop the ecu throwing up a fault light. Straightforward enough but a but of a pain with the space you have to work in.

Next up the straightforward jobs of fitting the other components

The full system is a work of art and went on perfectly.

This is the first time I've used Driven rearsets and they went on perfectly, very quality.ther

All the other components went on without drama apart from the quick throttle which was a bit of a faff to get right.Its on and working properly, but I do think the Accosatto I had on my Gixer was an easier fit.

So put the rad back on, top up the coolant and lets hear the Akra!

This is where the mare begins!

Bike started straight up, but was throwing a fI light. Being new to Kawasaki's this meant downloading a manual to find out how to identify the actual fault.

Turns out to be code 16 which is no2 Intake air pressure sensor which is located lefthand side of throttle bodies.

So swaps it for no1 IAPS, fault still there, so not sensor. follow the fault finding guide, measuring the voltages in and out of sensor. After each step you have to put the bloody thing back together to run it and each time still showing a fault.

After fannying on all afternoon I decided to step back and come back fresh next day. Time for Beer!

Next morning, check the continuity between sensor and ecu, all fine.

Manual says faulty ecu aarghh!

Decide that I'll put it back together and let Pete Clifford have a look when it goes in for ecu reflash.

So start it up and fault light goes off. Why? Ive got no idea, I checked and couldn't find a fault, didn't do anything, it went away by itself.

Don't you just hate electrics?

Anyway, here's a few pics
