Awesome AMA SBK Build - Not an R1

[JeffD]

Check this out over on ZX-10R.net, an AMA SBK build by EDR Performance in Portland, OR. First the break-in dyno with OEM cams, pistons, crank and airbox.


EDR says that once it's properly broken-in and in race trim with no other changes it will make over 210 rwhp. Read the whole build: http://www.zx-10r.net/forum/showthread.php?t=111279

The thing that kills me is the owner of the bike totalled up what he had in the build and it is just about what I have into my R1 with no internal engine mods. I love my R1 and all, but damn I am loving that ZX-10R... Heresy I'm sure here, so flame on!

Pure ass kicking power Kawa gets my vote every day.
LOVE my 05ZX10!

Eric Dorn has a ton of championship winning builds. I'm hoping to get my heads worked over by Eric Dorn (EDR) or Tim Radley in the UK.

I'm pretty damn happy to live about 15 minutes from EDR. Not only do they build amazing race machines, but they're great for even just basic maintenance. You can even ride in unannounced and they will drop what they're doing to change a tire for you while you wait. They all clearly have a passion for bikes, and are enthusiastic to chat about whatever awesome machine they're currently building. I've had them do any work I need a shop to do on my bike and I have not been disappointed whatsoever.

I just have to figure out how to get my bike the 2200 miles to the shop and then back.

I've contacted him about building a streetable, reliable 170-175 rwhp Crossplane motor. I'm hoping it's not too bad, and if it is, I'm going to be liquidating some other toys to get my bike to where it should be.

[bacchus40]

wow. thanks for the info.! thats pretty damn good prices..

too bad he's so far away... i dont know how i feel about trucking
my engine down.. but then i've got easy access to EDR... so i
think i'm good to go..

thats one crazy crossplane though.!! wow.. impressive!

Damn, if not for the r1, might've been a ninja...

Thanks guys..the ZX10 has been a good but long year...we had only 1 set back but due to contracts cant really discuss..but in the end getting 205rwhp was not too hard...as others said stock cams/pistons/rods due to ama rules but a LOT of time in the head and tuning..the chassis was a lot of work but thanks to my uk buds we got the thing to work on the spec tires....

Now we have 4 new R1's in shop for builds..should be fun..everything from trackday to full sbk so something for everyone..man i miss my 09 R1 at times... my personal bike only makes 49lbs/ft of tq...

[ed who?]

btw Ricky Corey is a great guy..his R1 is FAST however please dont compare his R1 to our ZX10..his R1 i'd guess has about 10 times the $$$ in it...a LOTTT of $$$... but hey he rode it amazing still in the AFM series. Plus he had more than a few engine failures on the bike..but again when we push the limits and put under full race use...things happen.
