zx10r is first to have left hand exhaust
Anyone notice the exhaust on the zx10r that's on the cover of the new issue of motorcyclist magazine? ooooops.

hey ratsarse, don't you know the left from the right? Apparently not, so let me explain. Whenever saying left or right on a motorcycle, car, airplane, etc. it's from the rear. As standing from the rear of the bike and looking forward. That would make your clutchy on the left and your brakey on the right. Rats, maybe pictures would help you. Look at any ZX10r pic and now look at the cover of motorcyclist.

Umm, the picture is posted in reverse, DB, look at the cover of Motorcyclist, the CBR and ZX are leaning toward eachother, the photos were taken in the same turn.

But Johnny, it can't be the same turn. The sky behind the CBR is a mustard color and the sky behind the ZX is blue. It must be different planets. Come on Johnny loosen up, we're aware the pic is backwards, that is the point. Loosen up and enjoy life alittle, thats what this site is about. If you took everything in here as gospel then you'd believe.......nevermind. Hey, between this and you're light bulb comment I think you're taking this stuff way too serious. The only person thats allowed to be that serious here is Freek.

I've always liked a LH exhaust....It kinda reminds of the Left Hand smoke shifter on my rat bike.

How come exhausts are never on the left side? Is there specific reason for this?

Because most people are right handed. Because most people get off on the left because the side stand is on the left. Because it looks better on the right side. Because we lean over more on the left than the right. Because the left side is heavier so the exhaust helps balance it. Because...... Well, just because damit!
