Nice, I like bikes but prefer ATVs. I have a pretty well-modded '99 Yamaha Warrior 350 and it's a blast. That bike's a 4-stroke right?

Aww why not 2-stroke, they're sooo much crazier. :laugh: But seriously, good choice and hope you have fun on it. I'm more of a Yamaha guy but Hondas a pretty nice too. Just try not too crash too much, it hurts.;)

First order of business: Get some mods done. :D

I love the fact that despite only running it in it'll still do 100mph at low revs :roll: also cant you do nearly 100mph in first with that zx-10?

mostly yea. I'll probably take it to the track every once and a while, once I get good at jumping smaller jumps in my friend's field that is :D

For power, get a good pipe and air filter. You'll probably need better shocks if you're going to race it, and I think kill switches are mandatory for racing. Honestly I don't really know because I keep coming up with ATV mods, but about 70% of them don't apply to bikes.

You people are making me want to take my Warrior to the track, but if you've ever seen it you would realize why that's such a bad idea. :p

Your suspension will have a hard time going through whoops but since your a beginner i dont think youll be going fast enough to notice haha
Maintain it well :D Fresh oiled air filter after everytime you ride and oil changes youll be fine. I dont think youll notice the difference in a new pipe unless you got a spark arrestor and other restrictions in the stock one
