I like it. What all did you do?
Makes me want to get a street bike again.

Here are pics of it when I first got it. It needed a lot of work. I had the valves adjusted and had the valve cover gasket replaced. I had to get new fairings for the front for the original set because they were zip tied together. I then got white fairings and a new muffler and also had the existing titanium pipe welded because it had a huge hole and then I removed the butterfly valve in the exhaust. Wired the flush mount turn signals and added a speedo healer and power commander 3 and downloaded the custom map for the exhaust and air filter. I had traded my gsxr600 and 400 bucks for it (the white bike next to it). Thanks for the compliments guys. I really love this bike it rides nice and is so fast. I plan on keeping it for a while so that's why I put all this money into it. Next I'm getting a new radiator (mine is zip tied on ...) and I also bought an extra fan because I saw on the zx10 forums someone wired another fan because they mount right on the radiator next to each other and will help it stay cool since I live in sunny FL. Also gonna run the blue antifreeze.

I was just told that it was good stuff and was kind of like water wetter. I guess I'm a bit biased and easily influenced. So does it "really" make a difference?

It is your call. Water wetter was kind of pink that last I looked. Any color can be polypropylene based in my thinking and is not track worthy. Good stuff for street use. I would run the evans coolant for street use though. Just an opinion.

I'll take your advice. When I change my radiator that's what I will run. Thank you
