It's that time of the year again... post pics/vids of your bikes!
We should get together for an ARFCOM ride sometime in May/June! I have two bikes this year: - 2013 Kawasaki Ninja ZX6r (636). It has a Two Brothers full exhaust. Power Commander. HID headlights. Fender eliminator. (Integrated taillight will be added once someone makes one for it). I also put on Vortex chain and sprockets. I went -1 in front and +2 in the rear for much quicker acceleration. Here is a video of my bike w/ the two brothers exhaust. Like? 
Here are pics of the bike: 
The other bike I just bought is a 2009 Kawasaki Ninja ZX10R. It's completely stock. I am going to be adding a full two brothers exhaust, power commander, fender eliminator, integrated taillight, and a chain/sprocket upgrade and go -1 in front and +2 in rear for better acceleration and stunting. Here are some pics of the bike: Okay, you post some pics! :) Getting excited for the season. I put 100 miles on Sunday! |

David, why the two NInjas? Seems a waste to run two of the same type of bike.....Unless one is getting converted to track duty  Two different beasts though. A 636cc and a 1000cc, I was going to ask why he down graded to the smller bike? Love the 2k13 though, great lines on it! Heres mine. Only took it for a test run a couple weeks ago and froze my legs off. Im hoping end of next week we will see some sunshine

Ride to the track via backroads, watch some racing, then ride back via more backroads. Sat the 18th is racer practice, learning curves race school and the ASRA 75 lap team challenge at the end. Sunday (best day to come. 17 races (which some could be combined if they need to) practice starts at 8am. GT races (30 min races) start at 9:30, lunch 11-12, 8 lap races start at noon. Let me know if you guys are planning to come. Wondering if I should get a couple BFL decals for the bike.

Here are my girls. The Harley is a 2012 FLHR Road King and the other is a 1973 Triumph Bonneville T140 750cc. All other pics fail due to lack of guns in the pics. Oh yeah.....all the ones pictured are SBR's....

Is that a gixxer 1000 or 750? Sick looking bike! How stretched is that? What have you done to it? I actually sold my bikes last year then I bought the 2013 636 in January and I bought the ZX10R just last Friday. I wanted a 1000 and a 600. Why not have both? :) GSX-R 1000. I believe its stretched about 7"-8" or so, the swing arm is adjustable. I was actually looking all over for a 750 but couldn’t find one with low miles. I found this one for sale local with 4,050 miles on it and bought it. I really wish I would have been patient and waited but I’m still stoked. I love this bike. Ahh mods, lets see.... Stretched frame, Power commander 3, Dyno Jet quick shifter, Vortex lowering links, Vortex gas cap, Vortex frame sliders, Vortex adjustable clutch and break levers, Smoked windshield, Smoked tail lights, Fender eliminator kit, 2 to 1 Exhaust with VooDoo tip. About all I can think of, I want to get some nice HID lights soon. Also about wanting the 600cc and 1000cc bikes.. GSXR actually has 3 modes programmed, A,B,C. A mode is full 1000cc of power, B is less power about equal to a 750cc, and C mode is compared to a 600cc. I guess its geared toward saving fuel consumption and driving in the rain. Also helps newer riders that don’t want to have the 1000cc right away. |

Hopefully I'll have it out and about this month yet. Lots of very nice bikes pictured. Nice R1! I actually like this body style better than the current generation. Post update pics when your done with your upgrades

I am thinking about getting my ZX10R ECU flashed... The newer Ninja's have the different modes. My 600C bike even has A, B, and C mode as well so you can have full performance or a better fuel economy. We should get together and ride! |

<snip> It's your bike and you're free to do whatever, but stretching the swingarm and lowering the front completely destroys the handling and is really only good for use on the dragstrip. |

Stretched swingarms on sportbikes make baby Jesus cry. But it's your money and you can do what you want! I'll just be flying past you in the corners while you struggle to lean the thing over 
Good to see I'm not the only one out there with a 636 and a ZX-10R! People always ask why I have two of the "same" bikes too. They are both silver 2005, but they are completely different animals. The 636 handles better and its easier to ride hard, and the 1000 is just brutally fast. Here's my stable: 2007 Kawasaki Z1000 
2005 ZX-10R 
2005 ZX-6R 636 on track duty at Blackhawk Farms last year

Post update pics when your done with your upgrades I agree, love the look of this! I like the look and the engine better than the current gen. The crossplane is pretty cool, just like this better. I will post pics. I'm really itching to get it done as my fun car will most likely be down most of the summer. |

bump for the thread. This weekend+ is looking like it'll be game on.
The two bikes in the stable, 07 FZ1 and a 78 CB750F that I've graced with a turbo (currently has a hole in it's bottom motor case from the chain breaking and piling up between the front sprocket).

The project was great fun, and is a blast to boost around on. It's a blow through turbo setup using the stock carbs. It has an electric fuel pump using a 1:1 rising fuel pressure regulator (every 1 psi of boost raises the set fuel pressure 1 PSI to compensate for the extra air flow). Running all stock internals and has put up for I think around 2500 miles (before the broke chain gave it a temporary vacation).
Dynoed 101 rear wheel HP at 8PSI, which is about double the output from stock. I fabbed and tack welded with MIG and fed the parts to my buddy Mark to apply his TIG magic. All parts are custom including the digital ignition (equivalent to a Dyna 2000, let me know if anyone with a SOHC4 CB750 would like to help test one out.. my bike is broke ).
Some project pic links to keep the pic bloat down. I hope to find the time to throw in a mildly built motor this summer, or another stock to get up and running sooner... all if time permits... the FZ1 will keep me happy in the mean time.

Quoted: Quoted: Bump for more bike pics. Pics should have guns also........ That is the only reason I even want a bike, so I can sit on back and squeeze the GF's guns while she drives. She would be totally defenseless. I do that when riding pillion behind the gf on her ultraglide. We get looks all the time for that and how we wear full gear on a hd. Hehe Heres the sv with its new bodywork.  |
