Round after round, there are more people who, as if by chance, are standing at the pit wall of the Hockenheim start-finish straight. ? The clocks are sure to be running again”, It shoots the author through the head, so keep calm, concentrate on the turning point of the fast right and yes, do not shoot. Because the boss is also watching, is one of the colorful dots that flies past in the corner of your eye. The small crowd is not drawn in because celebrities are sitting on the green ZX-10R from Sepp Buchner or because Hockenheim’s absolute lap record is wobbling. No, the ZX-10R itself attracts people, because it is visible with the naked eye and clearly audible with the ears how this blatant animal apparently makes the short straight line even shorter. Like a hungry panther on the hunt, it sprints along the short distance between the Opel and Nordkurve: smoothly, unerringly and with deadly efficiency for its prey. A look back does not always reveal a glorified picture of the past. Sometimes it also illuminates the current object of desire. In 2007, Sepp Buchner was a newcomer to TunerGP, also with a ten in his luggage. The professionals immediately recognized it as a spotlessly built racing machine, the gong between the horns was added a little later when the performance was measured. 204 HP on the clutch were measured. And 2009? The Buchner Sepp, as the reserved Bavarian likes to introduce himself, is the King of Power! 210 hp secure him the crown on the test bench? and with a lap time of 1.48.6 min the author his personal fastest lap and the Greens place four in the times list of the TunerGP. Only beaten by three winning drivers from the IDM. How is it that a moderately talented driver can be so fast? Quite simply: the base is right. The much-cited driveability is something that the Bikerbox-Kawa was born with and is simply a dream. Not a single one of the many horsepower is frightening, because they always only start exactly as the pilot would like. And the things between the acceleration orgies, also called curves or radii, the ZX-10R burns through like on rails. The pilot wants his line, the Kawa drives it. Amazingly, with the standard 17″-The front wheel is even a tick more manageable than with a 16.5″-Magnesium forged wheel. And the best thing about it: Even in the hot phases of a lap, for example braking and turning into the legendary Motodrom, the Zehner feels so nice and friendly that even in this situation, the thoughts of the driver towards a guest start at the IDM Superbikes digress. What time would have been possible with a fully concentrated driver … Back to the facts. Sepp Buchner calls for 4000 euros for his grenade motor, with the unit delivered. Superbike World Championship power at an Aldi price. In order to get to the 210 HP he recommends the installation of a Kawasaki-Kit-ECU with wiring harness. This also saves weight and makes it easier to set up the green rocket. In addition, delicacies such as traction control, pit lane limiter, automatic gearshift and automatic start are available as well as the cylinder-selective adjustment of the injection quantity. However, according to Sepp and his buddy Eddie, both on the road for Kawasaki factory teams in the Supersport World Championships and MotoGP for many years, this was not necessary on this decade. The horses would have appeared by themselves after the usual overhaul of the combustion chamber and various other optimizations in the engine ?? and that with standard camshafts! The summary: The Bikerbox-ZX-10R again delivered an impressive, almost unbelievable performance in 2009? Hats off! If you feel like it, you can have it now for 22,222 euros.
