Grecco,

Now yer talkin'....................that would be fun..............anyways, I am only running about 20 lbs of boost on the street with a 50/50 mix of pump and C-16.  It is fast, but it is not the fastest.  The long wheelbase with the McIntosh 5" over arm and the 3-degree rake make turns a chore. 

My old 1998 ZX9R was great in the turns, it had Dymag Carbon Fiber wheels.   Nice bike.  Long gone now.   :(

i had a zx7 way back in the college days with dymag wheels and muzzy everything (i bought it that way from an old friend) and i wish i had kept that bike. i loved the way it handled.

i do love the slammed stretched raked powerful turbo street busas and ill buy one like that one day (shoulda bought jailers when i had the opportunity  :P)

im really enjoying mine the way it is. i looked into canadian mike swingarms and he made me a great deal on one (years ago) but im just too much into my backroads. i know there are tons of bikes that handle soooo much better than what i got but for some reason my bike just "fits" me...

i have been browsing around at some 1000s for daily cruising and may do something more with my bike. but who knows what the future holds.
id rather just buy your bike for the ultimate speed rush and keep mine for daily/backroad cruising.  :P

Stunning bike  :drool:

I am going to go gold accents on mine as well. I have a black silver 99. Plans for mine are Gold levers, rearsets, wheels, and decals.

Only thing i have so far is sprocket, which I love so far.

Thank you for the compliment.  I have been told by two professional riders (one pro stock and one top fuel) that the purple and black bike is very, very, fast for a streetbike.  I am humbled to own it.  At 63, it is a handful.  My reflexes are not as sharp as they once were.  Gotta be careful.
