My new ride

[grey5.0beast]

Haven't stopped by 5.0 talk in a while now. I figured I'd show off my new ride. Its an 03 Kawi ZX6R, mods in my sig. And check her out. I plan on taking it to the 1/4 track soon so we'll see what she can do, hoping for 10.9s or better but we'll see.

Man I wish my old 5.0 could have pulled like this.

looks awesome man. glad your having fun

 

[ryan218]

thought you were getting that cobra man?

 

[5.0Torx]

sweet man. im a motorcycle rider myself. 05 yamaha FJR1300. Love those ZX6Rs!

keep it shiny side up and let the good times roll!

 

[grey5.0beast]

I was getting the cobra but I changed my mind. I love riding more than I like driving and you can go so fast for so cheap, relatively. I just dropped 1000 on gear, including an Alpinestar skid suit my parents are getting me for my bday, Alpinestar boots, and AS gloves. I have yet to buy my shoei helmet and that will be another 300+.

I didn't want to do a **** lot of work, when in reality I just got done with doing all that work 3 months before my car was totaled. This was a way I can connect with my dad alot better and just ride. My dad and I are scheduling every sunday from 7:30AM to 1pm is our riding time and we will go to the mountains and up to NC, etc. I think it is good fun and we can help our father/son relationship alot.

And thanks, I love it too!

430/500 with some spray. id say it ran well

 

[grey5.0beast]

No more jeep, my brother took it offroading and blew the engine.

Yes I got the stang running, it made 275 hp 307 tq NA w/ explorer upper and 10* timing, we literally got the thing running and drove it straight to the dyno to not miss our appointment. It had several vac leaks too so I am sure it would have made 295+ with little tweeks. A few days before it was totaled we did a nitrous run and made 430 hp and 501 tq on a 150 shot.

I do ride safely, or more like I ride in safe places.

BTW josh you want to hit up that drag strip this fall???

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

****ing hell yeah I do, I just got my damn car done, and it needs to stretch a little.. but now its a 89lx hatch, instead of the vert.. .

 

[grey5.0beast]

Is keith's car completely done? Man it sucks you never got to see my car run balls to the wall like it was. Just hit my cell up sometime and we'll plan something.

 

[fivespeedsteed]

i do believe that keith's car is close to being done.

 

[grey5.0beast]

Sweet, track meet. Steed, make the trip down and rock out with us lol

 

[SMOKEDYA]

love that bike, thats what i wanna get! Alot of by buddys have bikes and i drove a buddys harley the other day and man its fun! I want a sports bike like that tho! thing is sick!

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

i

do believe that keith's car is close to being done.

oh its done, it was a 357W car the engine he bought ended up being a pos, and wiped out his custom lunati cam, it was unbelievable the how bad it was..

now he has a 302 with tw heads, stage 1 cam, and an eddy intake, and all the bolt ons, were currently trying to fix a fubared dist, but saturday were all goin on a 200 mile round trip fiasco with some of our f-body buddies, so it should be fun!!

ever since he got it running with the 302, the police make a round through his neighborhood every 5 mins.. lol

I still have open headers on my crap revving it to 6k with almost 11.1:1 comp (loud as piss) and my neighbors really could care less haha..

 

[grey5.0beast]

haha sounds about right....

Well in that case just let me know.


Jaswir, thanks man, and I definitely suggest taking the MSF course if you haven't already. This bike is not nearly as forgiving as a harley. I grew up riding dirtbikes and rode a nighthawk 250(not so badass lol) for 3 months before moved up. Just be safe, I know I need to be...
