Sigh!

I sold my ZX-9R (99) in June

Me, boss's dog (wired haired dashund...cute lil dog)...

Not familiar with the micron pipe...I kept the stock titanium pipe, big gain?

I miss the bike...maybe a Ducati this time

Good for you MrBlack. That's one of the coolest bikes there is, I'm currently a "proud" owner of a RC24.

Nope not the first one. I started on a 600cc Yamaha. This would be a bit to much bike for a nOOb rider IMO.

Yeah I am real happy with the Micron piece. The canister coloring and the high mount really make the look for me. As far as power gains..... the bike made 124 RWHP stock. I did the pipe, jet kit and ign advance all at the same time which brought me to 136 RWHP. A nice gain to say the least. Then I did the BMC race filter and I did some more tweeking to the carbs (The 136 RWHP dyno pull showed that I was lean) Then POW 144 RWHP! More than I could have hoped for. Second gear 80mph power wheelies are no problem.

Nice pic of your ZX. Bummer you sold it.

As far as a Ducati........ they are underpowered and overpriced IMO. Not tryin to knock em, just callin it like I see it

Talked to Nomak this spring when I was looking into getting a bike. A n00B on a bike he isn't.

Nice sled bud, wish you well on it.
