Quasi's 06 ZX10r review

[Quasievil]

No.......................

Okay fair enough, I see youve come to the right brand Mr SPman!!

[Lou Girardin]

no, but its a good indicator of the best bike available isnt it?

No it's an indicator of the (slightly) quickest bike around that circuit.
Which, if you lived next to it, might be important to you.
The Gixxer is the best road bike, which is where we ride.

[The_Dover]

I'd dispute the masterbike crock of yankee shite anyway.

How the fuck can they judge a ZX10 to be the best around a track based on a couple of lap times?? Has it won anything? Fuck all to my knowledge.

And it is boring as fuck to ride, may as well be a honda, and that is no joke.

Hey, is that you I saw on a bus this morning sitting next to all those school kids?

Funny you should say that gimpster, but I did see some homo on an MV as I cycled past the Ponsonby fire station this morning on my hung-like-a-horse powered bike.

What kind of cunt rides those things for fun?

I feel like I dropped the soap in the prison showers, got kicked in the balls and inhaled super heated steam.

Isnt the quickest bike the best bike?? dont forget this test is about the fastest bike with the best consistant lap times, the fact that it was only slightly quicker is as relevant as Rossi beating a rival by a fraction of a sec, he still won.

I dont think the GSX is the best road bike at all actually, the 1st and 2nd gears are yuck and to tall for the road.
Hey for clarity I like the GSX, I rode one for a fair bit on a ride recently and thought it was cool, but its not the best road bike for NZ I got of the GSX and jumped on a CBR, it was alot nicer to ride that the GSX anyway thats a different debate aint it? the best road bike for NZ probably aint even a thou its probably a GS1200? fuck knows.

But as much as it urks you mate you are going to have to get over it cause the Masterbike of the year is still the mighty ZX10........ 3 years running

Yeah? But what has won almost every magazine shoot out based on track and road riding?

Fuck, even the Direblade beat the ZX10 in some of those tests!

Dunno, to poor to buy all the mags, wanna send me some?????

I think alot of the tests are crapola, only the masterbike does it right ie one track, control tyre 20 riders, Factory reps, blah blah blah.
Like I say this test is about track times not anything else, comfort etc are not considered.
the GSX is a good bike Im not saying it isnt, its like toyota is a good car, its just that they are everywhere like a gsx, the Suzuki is the Toyota of the biking world you know cheap mass produced go okay for a while

serioulsy, yu can pick up 10 mags covering the subject of best bike and get 10 different answers. at the end of the day its what you like, if you like it great buy it love it ride it, its all good.
Hey I even have freinds that have Suzukis, but then again I got freinds that are mentally impaired as well.........hang on same people

fuck Im a shit stirrer!!!!

[The_Dover]

Don't worry Quasi, I have gay friends too.

Oh, and friends that ride Kawasaki's. Hmmmm, correlation?

I agree it is horses for courses. Any Jap litre bike, except the Direblade, is probably preferable to eurotrash.....

Actually, I was early for a wax & manicure so I stopped off at SPQR for a trim flat white.

[The_Dover]

Sorry Finn, I was refering to my bicycle!!

If it came down to it I'd even choose a Honda over that torture device.

How was the was? It must beat shaving cos I'm itching like a dog with fleas. I don't think the chicks in the office appreciate my manly ball scratching.

My 2 cents:

The ZX10R, i though WTF when it first came out, then i saw a pic of a black 10 with those horny looking akro's on it, an i though fuck yeah, i'd own one of them, now after seeing a few in the flesh, and reading some reviews, nah i wouldn't own one, I'd buy an 04-05 anyday.

The CBR1000RR, never done it for me, great bike, does everything well, but does nothing well at the same time, couldn't own one.

The R1, it's a mean bike for sure, but it just looks too pretty for my liking, doesn't look like a bike at the sharp end of the stick (even though it is) but nah not for me.

The MV, fuck i live in a real world, where people are poor, so no.

The GSXR, it has the hooligan element like no other bike has, it does everything well and some things even better, in my veiw it's been the GSXR and R1 duking it out at the top, but the GSXR is strong in me and i'd buy one with no questions asked, but i would still look at other options for sure.

No 999R in the masterbike? wonder why, i'd buy one if i could afford it the biposto and S models just wont kick it with the Jappa's, but the R well in the right hands that could be a weapon.

The above bikes all have somehting to offer everyone, and it takes a pretty good rider to exract the differnces out of them, i cant see that by masterbike the ZX10R is the best, and if thats all you're going to base your opinion on, open your eyes a bit, there's more to it than being the fastest stock bike round the track.

And 19 riders tested in masterbike right? Were those lap times of the one fastest rider there, or was it an average of all 19 riders on each bike, i think then we would get a more broader veiw on which is the best bike?

Anything from Euro is vastly superior to anything from Japan.
Tell ya what you and one of your Jap bike mates vs me and Finn on our superior Euros, in town and lets see who pulls the most chicks?
