I would hazard a guess at lots of farting :-[ ;D
yep lots.  . . . But I was referring to the relative merits. I really do not see the need for a sports bike anymore.  Too small, too uncomfortable and so on.  . . .any comments?

For the road, and speaking as an almost 40 year old ZX10R owner, I would tend to agree. There are odd occasions when the 10 really does excel, the odd thrash where only the most extreme lunacy will do.

For the track though, absolutely no contest.

I still see the reason for both types of bike, and will keep both as long as I can. If I *had* to give one up, hmmmmm, tough one, and sorry to say that the GTR would probably go. The 10R does road use better than the GTR would do track use.

These wind deflectors look a great idea, but reading the post , its a very old post. Does anyone know where these are being sold. definatley interested in getting a pair. Did 150 mile work run today and must say the knuckles were froze.

I bought them direct from Bill. He was used to shipping them all around the globe. I suggest taking a look at the link to the US forum in the very first post on this thread and getting in touch with him via PM.

Really great guy, I am sure he will help out if he is still making them.
