Yep another noob

Post by robracer »

Hi Guys :smt006
Rob here from Sydney Australia, I am a new owner of a ZXR400SP 91 (being freighted as I type this) & looking to pick your brains for info regarding the little beastie, as you can tell from my sig I am no stranger to bikes, been road riding for 23 years & racing for 12 years.
My last track bike was a ZX10R 05 & scared the toad out of me so its back to something a bit more sedate & getting into a more controllable situation, where the riders ability sort of outweighs the bikes ability.
The bike specs are:
* Fully rebuilt SP Motor
* Ram Air box
* Pipemasters race exhaust
* braided lines
* 520 race chain and sprockets
* 70bhp, on the Dyno
More details & pics to come when the bike arrives in the next day or so.
Cheers Rob :smt003

Thanks for that mate, I have heaps of questions, with the first being is there a thread or article explaning the difference between the standard & SP models, I know this isn't the right thread to ask from confuddled but I will do a proper search of the site today when I have more time.
