hi all
bought mk a month ago set up for blade but thinking now about zx9 dont want to start argument but which is best.

zx9 has more power and with a zx750 ecu a 500rpm higher rev limit.

thinking of using c zx9 could i use any zx750 ecu.

The ecu's are swappable no problem

ZX9R E has a better gearbox. Worth looking for if you can

You can do a similar trick with the Fireblade (using a CBR600 ECU - I have one of these still for when I had a blade engined car - if anyone wants it please U2U!) but the ZX9 is probably still the better engine!

Have you thought of using the zzr1100 engine?

Can be had for the same budget as the blade or zx9 lump and has more power and torque.

Also very strong and great for turbocharging!

Does the zzr have the same rev range as the sports bikes or is it more of a cruiser??

i could be wrong but think this is zzr1100 doesnt seem to be doing much cruisin
