    Thanks, awesome vid! I don't do tracks and never going to be able to afford a superbike but that new dash was my main reason to get the Z650 instead of MT07 (and the better looks). Beautiful paintjob on this ZX10R and Kawi are good making affordable bikes with affordable servicing. Somehow I value that more than European fanciness.
