yes, the ZXR 400 engine is fun, but I still think the KR1S can't be beat, it's mental.....teerex wrote:Just been out on the 400, hahahahahahahahahahaha what a sweet little motor revs to 14,000rpm, it does need a noisy so i can listen to the engine scream.

Ive never ridden a KR1, only RDLC's. ive had many new superbikes but you can never REALLY make them scream on the road as they are just too fast, but this little 400 gets its neck rung big time, and i had a smile from ear to ear, just need to get a race can to hear the engine working.
It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.

if you get such a smile from a ZXR400 (which is very understandable), be aware that riding a KR1, the smiling-rate rises exponentialteerex wrote:Ive never ridden a KR1, only RDLC's. ive had many new superbikes but you can never REALLY make them scream on the road as they are just too fast, but this little 400 gets its neck rung big time, and i had a smile from ear to ear, just need to get a race can to hear the engine working.
My ultimate goal is to die young as late as possible !

Surely you can't sell the KR1 Teerex without christening her... You would never know the sound of the worlds fastest screaming two stroke road weapon - go on... take her for a spin... You know you want too !!
Then you will want to keep it..
If it takes more than 2strokes then your just playing at it..

I darn't TS because if i blown it up i will be gutted and the guy who may be buying it if it is up to scratch when done, is putting it in his private collection and i have seen some of his toys and anything less that perfect wont cut it,
so it wont be getting ridden by me.
Ive had the suspension set up yesterday on the ZXR400 for my weight and what a difference, and fitted some braided stainless brake lines, next are some tyres as the front is the original from new, and im after a noisy race can aswell, then just alot more cleaning over the next few weeks.
