Muzzy Prostock Sidewinder QUESTION
05/15/13 2:27 PM

So i bought (and have not recieved yet) a Muzzy prostock sidewinder exhaust system. While i am still waiting on it i called Muzzy and asked if this would basically convert my 2010 ZX14 into a strictly racing bike, or still could be an every day cruizer. The guy from Muzzy stated that it would be purely racing and i would not be able to turn right.

Question: I don't lean that much on my 14 --in fact the most leaning i do is on on/off ramps off of insterstates and at stoplights. Would i have enough clearance to do this? Or do i need to cancel my order?

You might get away with it, if you go slow but anything more than 25 degrees and you're going to scrape things. If not tucked in my feet drag between 25-28 degrees lean angle.

Dragking,

Thanks.. i doubt i even reach that low when turning. I've taken one local off ramp at 65MPH for a 3/4 circle..but other ones are much slower. I've only seen two pictures on the internet of the prostock and it looks like 5 or so inches off the ground maybe more. Just sucks that if (when) i get it, i have to give muzzy 20% restocking fee since i went direct through them even if the box is unoppened.

They also recommended a Adams Performence Billet oil pan .... i drive 33miles one way to work..wonderin if that new oil pan is set up more for the strip too vice long drives?

I don't recall what that oil pan does! I think he gives more clearance for lowered bikes but I could be wrong. Yeah just take it easy on the ramps and should be good. In France, they teach us to slow down once we enter the ramp (to keep traffic smooth). In the USA, ramps are built a little different so, sometimes you have to slow down before entering and people expects you to so you should be fine. It's just too much fun to do the opposite though.

P.S. I was just looking at this one from Brock's... I hope the muzzy seats higher. If not, you'll definitely scrape things at less than 25 degrees.

I would contact Brock and ask him about clearance between his and muzzy's and cornering. They usually are fast with giving you feedback.

You will have to be extremely careful going up and down the short ramps to parking lots. I already am careful about that and I have more clearance than stock. I wouldn't have a side winder on the bike for the street. Go with Brocks but get a CT or A-head.
