Top Dead Center Bullshit!!
Anyone catch the show on Spike TV TOP DEAD CENTER?
They did a shootout with the open class current street bikes and picked the Honda best overall and the R1 2nd and the ZX 10 R 3 rd!??! What the hell...........most everone in the world picks the ZX10 ! What gives?
They said "the ZX10 suspension was stiff etc and that it was very nervous with the front and badly needed a damper"
Whatta ya expect? Its the lightest with the most power, which is why I bought mine. I love that power delivery like 90 % of journalists.
Pisses me off thats all!!

Stiff suspension? I notice that too.....when I'm riding slow.

"They said "the ZX10 suspension was stiff etc and that it was very nervous with the front and badly needed a damper""

Pussies one and all, the suspension makes more sense the faster you ride it, the 10R makes no pretence that it is anything other than a road registerable race bike and needs to be ridden as such to appreciate these exact traits. Having said that I have an Ohlins on the rear and an Ohlins damper strictly for medicinal purposes............. its a fine line between pleasure and Pain!
