The ZX9R - My Favourite Bike
The ZX9R Ninja is
one of the most exciting rides around, this is mainly because of it's very lively and
entertaining power delivery.
The 899cc donk is of an oversquare design
allowing for big valves while providing a short stroke which in turn helps to reduce
piston speeds, and increase engine longevity. This stock 5000 kilometre ZX9R pumped
out 128 SAE corrected rear wheel horsepower. A standard Yamaha
R1 had registered 131 horsepower on the same dyno
a week previous to our run.
