But when Kawasaki approaches you and wants something special done to its new ZX-10R, you don't argue. Instead, you get to the business of building.
The issue with a brand-spanking-new model like the 2008 ZX-10R is that last year's parts won't fit. An all-new bike means that it's back to the drawing board with fresh specs for the new bits, and that's just what Florida's Roaring Toyz did.
With the exception of a pair of Performance Machine's wicked wheels black contrast chromed by Sport Chrome's Jon Reed who dressed it all up in a black and shiny luster, Roaring Toyz was responsible for the rest of the parts. From the spiked caps and covers to the astonishing metal-flake paint from the hands of RT's Ryan Hathaway, the ZX-10R took shape as a performance influenced custom-a Roaring Toyz hallmark.
