Hehehe, at first oficial figures, then mcn dyno, now another dyno from honda fanboys and still doesn't believe...hehe can't wait for even MORE facts that you will get in the near future.
Fish> i can give you that graph without photochoped words. Will you suddenly believe it?? lol
I wrote those words about pipe, because thats the dyno of 08CBR with special pipe in works. Honda fanboy said on cbr.net that he will show stock dyno, so lets wait and see. Nevertheless comparo will show everything and then we will hear from steve "oh hp is nothing, its handling that matters"
P.S. What do you expect from engine that has ONLY 12.3:1 compression? 170rwhp???
quote:this is not STOCK bike. Can't you read what is posted??
159rwhp against 170rwhp for K7 and probably 175~ rwhp for 08zx10r on _that_ dyno.
"k7 1000 with a pipe is around the 170bhp mark." at least post the correct info from that source, douche. Honda w/pipe has 166 rwhp the gixxer w/pipe has 170 rwhp and the kawi is going to have 175 rwhp w/pipe + shit handling. LOL The Honda weighs 20 lbs less than the kawi and 30 lbs less than the gixxer.

Anyway, i'm telling you, lets wait for comparo that will be available LATER
Practice what you preach and STFU.
quote:
Btw , steve, why do you mention suspension and brakes, etc? You think 08zx10r will have worse suspension than Honda?
Now you're just pulling things out of your arse. Even your beloved MCN review said the ZX10 is "shaky"
posted January 25, 2008 06:09 AM
Show me current litterbike that is NOT SHAKY , LOL
Btw gixxer is STOCK and not with pipe, read whole thread correctly!
Anyway, you should feel bad that your beloved hondashit made slow bike AGAIN. LOL.
159rwhp bwhahahahaha.
We will talk about STFU when we'll get real comparisons (i have some from akrapovic factory but i will wait till they are released official and then you'll stfu for the long time)

it is NO SECRET the ZX10 has ALWAYS been slammed for its suspension
and all the articles state for 08 Kawi is trying to overcome that

"Where it was stated? In the 2006 MCN articale when 06ZX10R beat K6 laptime?"
MCN is known BS, there's a million threads about that topic alone.
that has been in every magazine since the beginning of time, and Kawi themselves responded to it claiming the '08 suspension has been corrected.
and to claim the prior ZX10's beat the gix in the past few years according to "reliable" sources is utter BS. Where do you get this all bullshit from dude? Even ZX10 riders in this very forum post the truth about all that. The new ZX10 may beat the Honda, I'm waiting to see too what happens. But some of you are so narrow-minded your brain won't open to see wtf is going on in the world (like the prior gix's haven't performed on top of the litre bike class for years).

Looking in the video looks like the rider behind is left-handed and the rider with the camera is right-handed..
The bikes don't look very stable in the video therefore the front end could possibly have a lack of weight that is not distributed with the correct calibrations through the balance of the motorcycle..
Looking at the Honda it looks completely gutted viewing the Kawasaki there could easily be 8 1/2 pound shaved off..
The Kawasaki looks like a well-balanced motorcycle with the removal of 8 pounds difference and with no lack of horsepower the motorcycle has
there should be no comparison..

Ride harder, FYI it was a quick ride around the track by Fish. The suspension was not even adjusted for him, he just jumped on a bike and rode. Nothing to perform a scientific analysis over lol
and it looks like you're comparing fish's quick ride on an untuned suspension with a pro team on the Kawi? tell me it ain't so :P

I totally understand what you're saying but even knowing that the suspension was not calibrated should not have stopped someone hopping on the bike and driving it like they stole it...

I'm sorry about the scientific analysis.. it's just that I haven't drank no beer today and I had 11 years working for Chrommalloy Florida until that 9/11 then I started my own business...
I was thinking I was working on airplane engines again..

My opinion Kawasaki hands down.
This is no disrespect to Fish for he seems to be very intelligent and an excellent rider with a lot of knowledge behind his belt..

I am guessing at a few things:
1. English is your second language. lol
2. You have the reading comprehension skills of a monkey. lol The info that Timdog posted for the Suzuki was "k7 1000 with a pipe is around the 170bhp mark."
3. You're 15 yrs. old. lol
4. lol
