The wheels were 10.5 lbs lighter than the stockers.
What a difference in the handeling.

I've never really had a cooling problem with my bike even in 100+ days always at least 2 bars below the top. Just wondering if your tried running the bike without a fender at all just to see what the ultimate difference would be. I know nobody is goin to do that permanently but just wonder if anyone did between fender swaps.

The zx10 fender is a real improvement on the bike for the looks, When it gives more cooling wind to the radiator, it will give some more drag on topspeed. ( not that will make a difference on your turbo engine... but for atmospheric motors it wil i think.
