Dude, you should be grateful that a performance exhaust is even an option. And KR should be grateful that he's allowed to start a business selling exhausts for motorcycles. And we should all be grateful that we can even own motorcycles.
O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickle down the sides of my nose. But it's all right, everything is all right, the struggle is finished. I have won the victory over myself. I love Big Brother.

Clearly ZRX's performance is based on the color of the bike. if you have a green one you are in luck. It is fast. If you have a silver one like mine, you are simply old and the bike is heavy and squishy. Glad i could help.
I think its the coolest looking japanese bike ever made in any color. I don't have mine anymore but it's a great motorcycle. I never took the stock exhaust off for fear the smooth fueling would go away no matter how i rejetted. After a few years of fuel injected on/off switch fueling, the zrx was sweet. the only thing that bothered me was I could not upgrade the fork internals on the 05. i heard that was a recent flaw though.
On the street any modern sportbike is overkill.

Re: "Where's Your Crown King Nothing"
When was the last time one of KR's bikes that "go beyond performance" podiumed, or even finished a race? You'd be better off sticking a shotgun down your Z-REX's can and opening up the baffles a bit than wasting money on this has-been's crap.

why all the hate for KR? as far as i am concerned the guy is a legend ..kr jnr isnt so bad either....i saw jezza mcwilliams on the proton and thought those guys were onto something but just didnt have the the big budget ...
so he releases a lame tie in for squids but why is that any different from any loud piped...fuelling messed up poseur bike ..if it keeps him in funds for his race teams then the end justified the means in my book...
most any mod made to a bike seems to be just about looks ..cruiser or sportsbike ; at least his stuff might actually have performace gains bearing in mind his experience ...the only call is the usual one ..most street riders dont need gains

The real money is not made selling hand made beautiful works of art made of titanium to sport bike riders. Nope. It is made selling simple chromed straight pipes to brain dead loud pipes save lives me too Harley riders. Pity KR's legend does not apply to that crowd.
