Next year new bike ?
ukzx10r:
Plus i must say that my dad test rode the new r1 and said its useless on the road.
Its a awsome track bike for sure but have you rode one in traffic and done a few pull aways on it?
Its rediculous high first gear and snappy throttle make it awful in traffic all be it a bit better than the previous r1.
The original big bang is a snappy dog to ride in traffic. It nearly snaps the bars from your hand if you hit bumps sometimes.
The gen 4 zx10r i tested was perfect. Brilliant throttle response with a decent geared 1st gear. I want one so bad
Chappo:
Well the one I test rode was awsome, handled a lot better than my 10, I instantly felt how good it was from the off, yes it has a snatchy throttle but after an hour use I got use to it and it didn't bother me in the slightest,
rab:
if its too high geared drop teeth from sprockets sorted
BladeRR8:
I imagine a software update will be available at some point to improve the throttle response.

Looking at the new pics released today :shock: I don't like it. At all,
And I'm not just saying that, the rear looks like the Z800 and the front I'm not keen either,
The spec might be good can't see a QS on it but it has Brembo,s
