Default I miss this old girl.......

I found this old pic from 2008 this is my old race bike and probably one of the badest bikes I have ever owned, just a small list of mods are
Marchesini Mag rims
AK-20 fork kit
Penski 3 way
Micron tie sys
Attack body
Attack clip-ons
Attack Trips
Kawi Ing Module
GPR damper
Kawi motor race kit
and on and on!

and to date I have not raced a bike that could out turn this ZX10

I took a local Buell sponsorship in 2009 and sold her man I miss this bike!

UMMMMMM WELLLLL



to be fair it was the 1st year of the 1125R and the bike was a bit underdeveloped but to give credit were its due this bike has mad potential and MAN did it sound good! I won races on it (hard fought) the bike hated to transition fast but had insane grip out off the turn!

HOH essentially gave me the same setup that Danny Eslick had, only I was running penske and AK-20 suspension

all in all I would have to say the bike was a 8 from a scale of 1 to 10 and if HD would have let Buell do it his way i'd be willing to bet this bike would have gone far!
