Hi guys/gals,
I've been on the forum for a bit now but just took some pic's of the K9 and my old zx12r and thought you might like to see em. To the Gixxer I have fitted a K and N race filter + an Akrapovic 4-2-1 second hand off one of the members here (sounds awesome!), just deciding on fuelling system and tune etc, plus got a gel seat for the longer rides. The zx12r is pretty stock, just a Jardine slip on and some carbon bits + polished wheels. I've been riding since I was 16 and i'm now 37 and owned multiple bikes from trailies to 600's and the natural progression to big bore bikes. Although i've slowed down a fair bit in my older (hopefully wiser) age I fell in love with the power and handling of the Hayabusa when a freind at Westerns in Penrith threw me the keys for a test ride. Well that wasn't a smart move because it was parked in my garage the same week. Being a larger (over 100kg) guy makes no difference on the beast cause it feels like i'm back to my youth at 60kg riding a 600! I met a few members at the S and R pro dyno day a few weeks back and they seemed like a nice bunch, with myself and Bigjay both getting identical HP from stock units (he had more 1 more FtLb of torque) it would be good to see what both our mod's have done to the power outputs?? Hope to chat with you over the coming months to get ideas and hopefully go for some rides etc,
Jason.
