08 zx10r from road to track
« on: June 15, 2008, 01:09:46 PM »
First of all i would like to thank Tom, Phil and the lads at Irelands motorcycles www.irelandsmotorcycles.com.
They have helped me a great deal so far and hopefully will carry on (unleast till it's finished  :lol: ) If you want an 08 Kawasaki get in touch they can do some fantastic deals on new bikes.


I was going to wait untill it was finished but as it's a lovely day and my little girl is a bit under the weather I decided to get in the workshop and strip her down. Just could not resist a couple snaps before it gets totally stripped  :icon_thumleft:

Plz bare on mind this is going to be a 100% track/race bike and function is always going to come before form although i am trying my best to get her looking sweet on a small budget.









If things go to plan it should be finished in the next 7-10 days  :lol:

As Glenn says it is the 46 prxls off the 07 almost every thing fits the 08 all i have left are the Akropovic end cans and the full Micron sytem with the pc111.

Just so you know the Ohlinss TTX is the defacto shock for the 08 now as the 46 prxls is no longer made. I did alot of digging but it seems the 46 is identical in fit to the TTX just not as up to date.  :icon_thumleft:
