My 1988 Kawasaki Ninja ZX10 🏍️ First ride

[@cbr600rrturbo]

I had the poster back in 88 what a legend

[@mirchiboyz]

Kawasaki should do this exact color scheme on the new ZX10R

[@AnthonyToth-t5v]

If only bikes looked like this now. They all look like transformers now!! This bike is beautiful this later became the zzr1100 even looks similar and I had one and miss it I’m 53 and loved both. Nice to hear a youngster enjoying the old bike. Well done!! Keep it alive 😊

[@mirchiboyz]

Zzr1100 is next on my list. Speed feels so different on these long, heavy but powerful bikes. 80/90 mph feels like 45. 100% agree with you on styling. I appreciate the comment. Ride safe 🤙

[@AnthonyToth-t5v]

@@mirchiboyz buy a Zzr 1100 you will love it it’s a missile on a straight line your ass will be off the seat lol 😂

She’s a looker & as you say, a survivor.. Interesting adaption with the ZX12R A1/2 air intake at the front..

[@abelmendoza8403]

This video has brought back memories of my 1990 when it was brand new that whistle has that whistle no other bikes have that whistle sound you better put on the other front disc and steel breaded lines on that bike lot of power you need stopping power.

I'm the proud owner of a stock 1988 ZX-10 that I bought new. It's been sitting in the garage for a while, waiting on time to clean the carbs and get it tagged. I really like that you have yours running and did some work on it. Not a lot of guys I know nowadays really know how to turn a wrench. Well Done. I'm a little curious about the air intake scoop you have under the headlight. Is that something that came with it when you bought it or did you put it on?

[@mirchiboyz]

Hey Ryan, Thank you for the kind words. The air scoop is an cosmetic item that the previous owner installed, I believe it is from a 2000 ZX12r. This is a very trick bike and the last guy must have loved it. Custom dog bones to lower it, amongst other things. I picked up a 1989 ZX10 as the next rescue project. I didn't set out to be the ZX1000B guy but I think they are starting to find me now hahaha: kzbin.infoWfKPD9U1P7k

[@danielcapalbo5293]

I like old bikes like this, but where do you find parts for these?

[@KNO1ify]

Mirchiboy strikes again, nice work!

[@mirchiboyz]

Boom!!!🎳

[@MeTellTime]

Ok, so i just got my license 13-01-2023 and its just something about these old bikes that scratches my itch. My das rides 2 cbx 1050s and a cb750 and honestly this just hits the spot for me. Soooo i saw one near me for €2750 with around 50k KM on it. Is that a decent price? The body work seems to be in prestine condition and it just had regular maintenance.

[@mirchiboyz]

Congratulations on the license Dub. ZX1000Bs are starting to become rare bikes and the surviving examples can be in amazing condition or completely trash. So it's hard to figure out the value. Parts for these bikes are getting hard to find and original body work is getting expensive. That being said, Kawasaki used similar mechanical parts in many different bikes. Definitely go check it out so you can get a feel for it as many of these are sold in non-running condition. Lastly, people don't want to buy carbureted bikes anymore. If you wait, there might be a price drop or maybe not. Best of luck friend.

[@phoenixarizona8441]

Badass Bike can't go wrong with a classic my first sport bike was a 1988 Suzuki GSX600F same year as my first truck 1988 GMC Sierra 1500 5.7 v8 both the same age as me lol 88 is my lucky number

Hey man, your alternator chain tensioner is shot. Open your oil cap and look at your clutch basket, I bet it is all chewed up.

[@mirchiboyz]

It was. The whole basket exploded.

[@williamfoster4268]

@@mirchiboyz Damn, that's the worst. It sounded so horrible when you started it up. Every model that uses a variation of that engine has the same problem, pretty sad Kawasaki never addressed it.

[@josedasilva396]

Hello! Why do you have only 1 discbrake at front?

[@mirchiboyz]

@@josedasilva396 That's the way bike came. It needs more work. I only got it running after it sat for a long while. I appreciate you commenting

[@josedasilva396]

@mirchiboyz that "beast" with only 1 discbrake makes a lot of scary moments 😎

[@nickcox8049]

Don't you need two disc's on the front wheel?

[@mirchiboyz]

This bike was modded and set up as a drag bike. Race guys get rid any rotating mass they can. Bike has launch control and air shift mapped the horn button. Previous owner must have been serious a out launching this thing 🤙

[@TheDirtyBirchTrails]

@@mirchiboyz I would reinstall the twin disks for road use. I had this exact bike for over 10 years back in the early 90s.

[@mirchiboyz]

@@TheDirtyBirchTrails This bike now belongs to another person on KZbin. I did buy two more: 89 and 90. I have a few videos of the new bike on this channel. Appreciate the comment

Wath camera you use on the helmet?

[@mirchiboyz]

Hero 7 White. Basic camera with not many options but it seems to keep everything in focus when good lighting is available. Thanks for commenting.

[@MichaelZZRrider]

Nice bike mate. I had one back in 90/92. It looks like you got it just in time to save it from being ruined. I notice it has the Ram Air intake from a ZX6R/ZX9R mounted under the headlight. Strange as this bike does not have a ram air system. Must be just for the looks.

[@mirchiboyz]

Hello there Mr. ZZR Legend! Yes, the previous owner installed the ram air scoop just for looks. I picked up a 89 ZX10 as the next project. I'll eventually make my way over to the mighty ZZR1100 🤙

[@MichaelZZRrider]

@@mirchiboyz The same route I took mate. The ZX10 was a great bike in its day but Kawasaki took it to a new level with the ZZR 1100. Listening to your video the sound of that wonderful engine is the same. Makes me smile every time I hear it. Ride Fast!

[@mirchiboyz]

I had a 78 Suzuki GS1000 which I ended up selling to make space ZX10 projects. I'm glad I got introduced to the GS line as the KZ prices are crazy. I might pick up a GS1100 or the more affordable GS850 next. I appreciate you commenting 👍
