2011 ZX-10r wheelie control and launching

[YZ125Broski]

Looks like south Florida

[MegaBikenut]

@shrike73 its mph, I used to have a zx10r and mine did 104mph in 1st gear. most modern 1000s will do a ton in 1st. crazy bikes

[specialcunt]

looks very slow for a litre bike

[aznridah143]

@specialcunt its the 2nd slowest litre bike... the slowest is the bmw

[recopadof15]

And where is the launch control? This bike does not have launch control. This is just a folk launching at some light

[shane12345656]

@recopadof15 wheelie control*

[Samarth916]

Seems to be working slightly but the bike's front is still bouncing, in all modes... It seems even electronics have their limitations...

How does the wheelie control and launch control work? I mean, does it cut the fuelling? and how abruptly... is it noticeable to the rider?

[shrike73]

@Samarth916 - I think it adjusts timing to drop the power so thats its not as noticeable.

[lol1412]

So with traction control on how would it be when you fully open the throttle at first gear from stationary position??

[shane12345656]

mph or kmh?

[shrike73]

@shane12345656 - Must be km's as he couldn't be doing 100mph (160km) in first gear?

[yhou24]

hows the weight of this zx? im planning on getting this bike as soon as i have enough money by this year :).

[TheSpasher]

I am debating right now on If i should buy a 2011 zx10r or a 2010 cbr 1000rr?  Worth the bank?

[RogerTHEAlien0]

@TheSpasher Not even close the 2011 zx10r is a beast .. Do your self a favor and ride it ..

[sonicnofadz]

This bike sounds so freaking sick, why would you want wheelie control anyways?

[skittlemaster15]

is it better to lower a bike

[BLKHAWK91483]

@skittlemaster15 Lower it for?

[yaboygb003]

So what level must you turn to for the Wheelie control to activate or is it on all levels?

[rasqo3]

i want this bike

[jowek70]

rode this at the dealer today.

this thing is super fast, all gears, any rpm.

this video does no justice to the seat of your pants feel you get when you open the throttle up.

awesome vid man.

[tenteimuitosnomes]

lowered or stock?

[garth285]

@tenteimuitosnomes stock

[BaKeDCrAcKer]

not a fan of those rpm guages to much, seems to easy to redline

[BlackJackm82]

Where was the wheelie? If this guy is afraid to make wheelie, why this video is called like that?

[garth285]

@BlackJackm82 because this bike has traction control/wheelie control to prevent Wheeling....

[BlackJackm82]

@garth285 Is it possible traction control to be turned off?

[garth285]

@BlackJackm82 yup, they have modes 1, 2, 3, and off just different modes of traction control

[lilonespaz]

@garth285 which control was he in for these test?

[DLDidier1]

@BlackJackm82 you should read better. it says wheelie CONTROL.

[KOSKESH43]

@BlackJackm82 your a retard....

[889350351]

even if bmws1000rr is better i still like zx10 more and i dont even think i`d feel the difference as amatour

[OnCam31]

makes for a fast get away for sure!

[Naptownstreetsquid]

the bike sounds sick

[Koroush51]

Have you ever crashed garth? What happened?

[MrNewYorkCity1]

Might be my next bike garth. great video

[eastern4321]

love that friken sound :)

[APSRx]

Im gonna sounds really stupid...but what's that meter for above the digital speedometer? And sick video bike sounds awesome :)

[ThePlab1405]

@APSRx Are you talking about the rmp(revalutions per minute) guage its just a LED display from green to red to make it easier for riders to be aware of their rmp at a glance....just in case your a moron and cant hear your bike red lining :P

[mike4853]

Thanks this is a great video. I was looking for exactly this one ! :)

[kevery12]

I would love to see a side view of you doing this , me being a newbie and all would like to know how your sitting. You know ?

[muaythai193]

@garth285 In which level was the traction control set during that video? And which riding mode? Thanks

[Parklane390]

How do you like the wheelie control? Can you turn it completely off? Does the traction control hinder you at all in high speed corners?

[Muzzy337]

It's not a wheelie control system, it's a traction control system. Duh.

[thepanzerknacker]

@Muzzy337 wrong its anti wheelie

[Muzzy337]

@thepanzerknacker Were you born a complete douche loser asshole or did you take lessons?

[thepanzerknacker]

@Muzzy337 why dont you check the spec of the Zx10 before you start shouting abuse? The Zx10 is equipped with both systems. Maybe you should take lessons

[The2crazyguys]

@Muzzy337 it has both you stupid fuck

[Muzzy337]

@The2crazyguys FUCK YOU, asshole. It has traction control, NOT wheelie control. You stupid jagoff asshole micro-penis internet idiot. Fuck off.

[The2crazyguys]

@Muzzy337 do you have a 2011 zx10r ?!?!?! a part of the TC is WHEELIE CONTROL!!!!!! look it up...

[jowek70]

I instantly fell in love with this bike seeing it on the showroom floor. Seeing vids of it in action only solidifies my judgement in getting one next spring.

[DrDanMD]

i have your bike as my wallpaper garth :)

[garth285]

@DrDanMD hahaha cool, if you want them in high res PM me your email ;-)

[OMGGP]

@garth285 can you send me a wallpaper please

[Annoson]

Have you tried how the traction control works with two people? any difference or does it also work properly?

[biker900r]

if there is not ON/OF wheelie control option..i would never buy that last model of Ninja

[gbessone]

is that the stock exhaust?

[garth285]

@gbessone yes it is. it now has a leo vince on it.

[TokelauIslands]

Is that Florida?

[thepanzerknacker]

whats scares me about this vid is that Im pretty sure that speed reads in mph :O

[xninjazx6r]

@thepanzerknacker its in kmh u can tell

[thepanzerknacker]

@xninjazx6r how can you tell? and anyway that would mean that hes only hitting 60mph in first gear which isnt terribly impressive. i know for a fact that this can do 100mph in first gear, so sod off

[thepanzerknacker]

@xninjazx6r and how can you tell?

[richconklin1]

so you cant do a wheelie at all with this bike is what your telling me what there isnt an on/off switch for that? that really sux cause I was wanting to buy this bike when I getback in the states please do tell

[garth285]

@richconklin1 You can turn traction control off no problem.

[blthetube1]

@garth285 Does this mean that if the traction control is turned off, you can still see sky.... because if I can't see sky, I'm not happy.

[deimling2007]

@richconklin1 ya u can turn it off by holding the button and it cycles thru the modes. how ever if u get abs model, u cant turn that off so no stoppies. either way its a killer bike.

[Hobo101xxx]

nothing like hitting 95 in first gear

[BlackFlag94]

looks no fun anymore...

[00international]

Interesting. Have a 2010 R1, I use it for Sunday blasts. Love to be in full control, does the wheelie mode take some of the fun away? Cheers

[00international]

Interesting. Have a 2010 R1, I just use it for Sunday blasts. Love to be incontrol

[00international]

Beautiful bike buddy. Question for you, does the wheelie control cut the power when the front comes up?

[garth285]

@00international yes its like a soft rev limiter, it will let you keep accelerating while keeping the front end down somewhat

[fusilikevin]

With those 'launches', you buddy would get smoked in a lightweight twins race...In an 'Open' race, he'd get a 600lbs enema.

[maccarolldabass]

That sound just got me hard!!

[fapposkid]

is that 100 in 1st gear.. thats insane. congrats on the beautiful motorcycle, sir.

[robertmike219]

@fapposkid yes it does, my k7 gsxr 1000 hit 104 mph in 1 gear at bit over rev redline, but i got 215 rear whp ohhh yes!

[theiceman1217]

ahh... i sold my 07 10r, for a cruiser... now im bored with that and seeing all these vids of yours makes me want a new one!!! but, i can't justify spending $14,000 on one... sick bike tho...

[GSX1340R]

i bought one last week. what traction control number you used when doing that?

[tammiekoon]

Buddy, which mounting kit u use and what camera? thanks!

[zleake000]

the bike from space :)

[ssj4gotenks00]

omg i had an 05zx10r and i was wanting to get the 2011 s1000r but now i want the new 2011 zx10r

[robertmike219]

@ssj4gotenks00 nice lol

[Asherr6]

Were you in fort lauderdale when you shot this?

[RadicalNH]

That tachometer is so sick

[Ryan2588]

100mph leaving first. damn crazy! I just bought a zx6r a few weeks ago. Can't wait for spring.

[alehax27]

any trouble with cops?

[calmdragon]

5 stars - thanks for sharing!

.

In the description it says "a buddy of urs" - yeh sure looooool smart

[Knoedel91]

Nice Bike, but the cockpit looks stupid^^

[MrCrazykid2682]

thing sounds insane!!! stock pipe?

[garth285]

@MrCrazykid2682 yup stock pipe in this video check out my others I have a Leo Vince on there now

[mamisenoiazei]

@garth285

Wasn't the zx recalled?

Sorry if I understood wrong.

[hikoseijuro24]

god fucking damn it! cant wait to get mine.

[HighCardWins]

163mph on that road? Any cop and you are dead meat. LOL. Be careful.

[peniskopf653]

great quality awesome bike sex for the ears nothing else to say

[dcDrewChase]

takes all the fun out of riding!

[kikabassos]

is there a HUGE difference in acceleratio/top speed with this mode turned on?

you live in the right country in brazil this motorb costs U$40,000(converting U$1,70)

[caveman357]

I was thinking, my 06 dosent accelerate that fast....then i read about the traction controll. it must be fun to be able to just pull back the throttle, on the start like that. I usually have to let off, at about 70mph. I really like the new tac. I am definetly jealous!

[tubememnosh]

Thanks. Yeah I suspected as much because it didn't happen in any other clips I've seen. Still... as long as you could turn it off at will, an effect like this could be interesting in small doses couldn't it? This could be an opportunity for some third-party :)

[tubememnosh]

Your tacho in this clip seems to have this weird pulsating effect going on that looks kind of cool but I think would be tiring in the long run... does it really do this, or is it some sort of video artifact?

[garth285]

@tubememnosh That is just a video effect bud, its solid when driving the video was shot in 720p at 60fps

[gbessone]

@garth285 I think it would be really cool if that pulsating effect was real :)

[sherrod0506]

@tubememnosh THose are the LEDs pulsing like that. Would look solid with the naked eye. All LEDs do that from my experience.

[buddybestor]

What TC mode did you have it on....1, 2 or 3?

[steady2wheels]

Have you been affected by the recall?

[shckar]

@steady2wheels what ????? recall ???

[steady2wheels]

@shckar yeah because of engine wear. something about having the wrong springs in the valves

[schmoofadoop]
