Hello all you ninja fiends.
« on: June 28, 2007, 08:00:30 PM »
Hello all,
New to the site, just got back from a 1600mile dash to southern france and back on my 10r I've owned since march. Oh and it's black!
Whilst I'm here, has anyone else experienced ground clearance issues with the 06/07 zx10. I ask because I hit the center section of the exhaust down several times and where there was a lipped flange is now ground flush!
Hope I can help anyone else with there problems. been riding ninjas for 9 years now so have picked up a fair bit on the way.
Keep it on the black stuff.

Welcome Dave  :icon_thumright:

You'll see that someone did have an issue with ground clearance recently so you're the second person to raise this, sounds a bit scarey  :-/

Welcome to here mate.

As Andy said this subject was brought up recently, but the guy didn't have clearance for flight before taking off and it bottomed out on landing.  He caused more damage than yourself by the sound of it.

So where you from
