Default New edition to our family.

One of my boys just picked her up today. Now, we are going to really see what this thing can do. ZX10 stock vs S1000RR and then ZX10 with Akrap and reflash ECU vs S1000RR.
This is going to be fun and of course both bikes will be fitted with Sony cameras

Long story. I had to put the engine back in and now I have to bring it to a different dealership cause the scumbag that sold me the warranty didnt want to do the work. Now I'm waiting for the callfrom my guy to bring it in. Hopefully next week. Im in no rush, I'm not going to be riding to late August anyway, going to be in Europe for about 2 months.
Also, I got a notice from Honda about loud crack noise/bearings and my bike is under warranty if it turns out to be the issue so, hopefully between that notice and my extended warranty there won't be a problem.

2nd and 3rd gear roll on for a "few" miles, top them off, hold it WOT for a while and see witch bike keeps walking. No lowering or gearing with pump gas.

Can't wait to see the rides against one another in real life with everyday riders.

Oooh yeah, we are down for that. I'll be riding the ZX against 1Arms beast. But we'll be doing it at night in the early morning hours on a weekday. Do you have a curfew?
Believe me, we're going to do endless amounts runs. We got the bikes, we got the roads and the riders
