07 zx10r - drysump / baffle?

will be taking my sump off soon to get the plug moved to the side to give me a bit more clearance, does anyone know if this engine will need to be dry sumped or baffled?

You should get away with a baffled sump unless you intend to have a lot of track use. The sump on my ZX12 has been shortened and widened to give the same amount of oil in the sump, and a new pressure relief valve fitted. It works fine for the occasional track day. If you are going to race then a dry sump is the only way to go if you want your engine to last.
