The zook 1000's set up right and with a rider that knows how to put the power down can be pretty surprising for sure .

Sure you can ride it. It needs a light rider. I have no idea what the weight is but I would say around 360 lbs. I like all bikes but with the economy in recovery money is still hard to turn loose. and these 1000's are so cheap to put together and easy to work on. Plus most of the parts interchange from year to year. But if you want to make one fast use the 05 and up because of the secondary injectors and better electronics. The 05-06 is good and I like them best. the 07-08 has the same bottom end and cases but has a better head with bigger valves. drag racing you will want to swap the trans out with one from a 01-04 GSXR1000, the early years had a lower first gear and will really pic up your 60 ft. and the clutches last a lot longer. This one I have right now does not have lights and is just something to play at the track on. It has a salvage title. I am going to pull the motor and put a set of High Comp pistons in it. I got me a set off the net used for $100 bucks. should pick it up a little more. The reason they are cheap is because there was so many of them sold....and crashed.

I posted on here a while back but I ran an 8.81 on a 1k @62". The back half mph was unreal. I ran a best that day of 160 and a worst of 158. I was and still am very impressed with that bike. The only changes he made was 2 exhaust cams. The bike was running pump gas and had a Yosh pipe. I think that with more seat time that I could run better numbers than my 14 with that bike. Keep in mind if you are heavy the bike will be a terd!

2 exhaust cams delivers more upper end power, If you are light that is OK. but for me I need the torqe so I did not put two exhaust cams in it. I run mostly the 1/8th. I guess I could up the spray.
