Hi and welcome, Hope you enjoy it, but you may find it lacking a bit in power compared to your ZX10R

well thats it done deal,lift it tomorrow,lacking the power yes but far more controllable and more usable on the roads i ride,
any adjusting the forks?seems too soft,and the throttle very twitchy,but im sure will get use to it

Its going to cost you to fully sort the forks and rear shock ( the bikes real failing ). The throttle snatch is easy with a G2 throttle tube. Cheap mod and 100% worth doing.

The throttle get better with more mileage, the suspension is a bit soft, but for real world use on the UK roads I find it ok, just firm everything up a bit. You'll probably find its not much slower than the ZX10 on the road (assuming you mostly ride B or unclassified roads)
