Looks really really smart, Perkles. I'm not a big fan of Japanese styling but that does look good.

Re: Perks zx10r review
Very nice perky looks the part i think the exhaust would not be so bad if it did not get so big at the end.

Re: Perks zx10r review
I went for a little ride,I've adjusted the throttle and it now gives instant response,I'm getting used to where the gear lever is.as I ride it more.The gearing is that tall you only need 2nd and 3rd on UK roads,I love the induction noise its immense
I am getting the feeling I'm going to really gel with this bike
