Official May Ride of the Month Entry Thread!!

[Shifty1]

It's the first of the month and you all know what that means...
Time for another Ride of the Month Contest!!!

This thread is for entries.

Voting will be handled in the Official May ROTM Poll thread.

The deadline for entries will be 11:59pm (eastern time) on the 15th of the month. Only 10 entries will be accepted as that is the maximum for the "polling options". It's first come, first served so get them in early. However, there are some rules.

-You must post a picture/pictures that everyone can see. No links!

-We would like to have some info on the bike, including year, model, mods, maybe a little story about you and your bike.

-If you have won a Ride of the Month contest in the last 12 months then you cannot enter that bike again. If you've got a new bike done differently...alright, I'll allow it.

-The entry must be a Kawasaki.

-You must own the bike at the time of entry.

Once the deadline has passed, I will copy the entrant's posts to the voting thread to make voting easier.

Good luck and let's see some of those rides!

well, first time entering in this contest.
its a 2005 ZX10R, this year of zx10 was nicknamed "the beast"
and if you have rode one, you'll know why.
everything you see on the bike was done by me, except the exhaust pipe. it was on when i got it. (but i just recently cut 6 inches off of it)

it has ZX14 Calipers and Master cylinder, along with Galfer Superbike braided brake lines.
has a GPR steering stabalizer, power comander, K&N air filter, GIpro ATRE, and the muzzy exhaust.

everything else on the bike is to make it look good, i pained the wheels, put on the ZX10r stickers (thanks citation), put the tripes on the fairings, and paited everything else black.

its a power house.

before i cut the pipe.

My 2008 ZX-10R

I bought this back in November of last year and have about 2700 miles on it so far. I have added a DB windscreen, T-Rex sliders, 09 ZX-6R rear hugger, Leo Vince GP slip on, Power Commander 5, removed the secondary butterflies, K&N, front blinker mod, 1/5th throttle, and fender eliminator.







And just for good measure, here is my track bike as well. It is a 2002 ZX-6R. Track prepped, Akra slip on, race fairings, rear sets, ohlins, etc.

This is my first time entering. I have some old school muscle, my '95 ZX 11D. I purchased her 2.5 months ago for $2000 needing some work. Now I have about $2500 in her and she RIPS! The bike has the following mods:

For looks:
Polished frame, swingarm, forks, triples, bar ends, and footpeg mounts
Chrome plated wheels
Zero gravity smoked double bubble windscreen
Stainless brake and clutch lines
Carbon fiber dash cover and tank protector
LP racing reservoir covers and oil cap
Chrome plated brake rotors
Chrome clutch and brake levers
Superbike grips
Purple underglow--looks very good in the dark
Blackout turn signals--not really my cup of tea but the P.O. did it.
Competition werkes rear fender eliminator
and a Corbin gunfighter seat

Now for the performance:
Muzzy full titanium exhaust--I cut the can apart and straight piped it. Yes its loud.
K&N filter
Pair valve bypass
Airbox water drain bypass--No riding in the rain for me
Bypass kit for oil pan--Keeps the old girl from blowing up like most other 11's
Stainless hoses for bypass and to oil cooler
Custom (by me) alternator chain tensioner. 1000 hard miles and no problems
APE manual cam chain tensioner
Barnett clutch and high tension springs
Revalved forks with 20w oil and stiff springs
Revalved rear shock
Bridgestone Battlax BT-014s--so far I really like them
Timing advancer
Jetted carbs

I chose the 11 due to the rather mild seating position for a sportbike and the very good stability it offers. It can keep up with even the newest monsters and runs like a top. Will do roll on wheelies in 3rd and pull to the rev limiter in 6th in no time at all.

My name is Paul. I bought this bike after I almost died 2yrs ago from being bitten by the wrong mosquito (long story) I figured if a mosquito is gonna take my a** out I might as well buy something I've always wanted before I die for real. lol...---> 07' ZX6R in Lime#2 The bike has a 2Bros exhaust w/fender eliminator, stripped wheels, Pilot Road 2 tires, Jumper Mod, Ebay Monster graphics done my way, Painted windscreen, Chrome valve stems, fairing spikes painted black, Rear seat cowl, shaved front seat cause I'm short...Relocated rear brake resevoir... My bike kept me sane through my just recent divorce. Thanks...
