its typical with the 04-07 zx-10 bc the bore for the piston is a little bigger so the pistons like to get side ways and stick so change to the nissan calipers that are on the zx 14/07-08 zx-6r and the new zx-10r and they will even be better!!

well got the brakes sorted.....well somewhat anyway, had the calipers rebuilt and rebled the lines and it was much better this weekend, but that doesnt mean it was good, just better.
Had races this weekend, did very well. I got the hole shot in every races I did. Until the restart when I went from the pole position to dead last for forgetting to put the dam bike in gear. I still made it back up to 3rd place in the last few laps.
Ran a new personal best lap time, I got into the :13's which for me is very good....then it happened......I crashed....  Ran into turn one going a bit hot and coulndt haul her down to speed, I stood it up and ran off the track, but the pack was right on my arse and I didnt want to get back up on the track with such a big speed difference, so I tried to turn it in the gravel, the front tucked then caught the edge of the track and threw me highside out into traffic, kz2zx just missed running over me, thank goodness for his ability, and him remaining calm under pressure.....Great riding Dave....you did friggin awsome this weekend....
Damage to the bike is minimal, Crashtechs pretty paint isnt so pretty anymore....I will need to replace the upper fairing, the left clip on, and the ram air snorkle....and the windshield, other than that, its will be ready to go, no scratches or dents to anything major, swing arm, subframe, frame, and gas tank are all unscathed, thank goodness.....lol So ebay here I come......lol

Like you said, Jim, if you were in front of me, and I was running 13's, what were you running?
First McFarland throws a bike at me, and then you tried. Your aim was better.
MattSterbator, you need to come out. Yeah Loren and Dirk were there, let them tell you about barbeque. I rewrote that novel I sent you, btw, and I still need to pick a BPA's brain. Make it a race weekend and I'll feed you.
Thibault, you type too much. Bring Cajun food.

I clipped a few :13's as well Dave, but I was in the high :13's, you and Adam were in the mid :13's, and the faster we get the more crucial those few tenths are going to get....the only reason you chased me at all Dave is I get a pretty decent holeshot......when I remember to put the bike in gear......lol
