Who the hell cares about peak horsepower I mean how often do you really ride around at full throttle at 11,650rpm?
Which one had the best mid-range power curves?

I agree with LDH on that. I was digging over at gixxer.com, and found this dyno chart of a Akrapovic system for a Gixxer...............
Now get this. The red line is stock. The green line is a Supersport tuned engine with Webb Cams. The blue line is all the SS mods from the green line plus a Akrapovic full system added. Playing with the fuel only added +5hp above 11.2k rpm not shown on chart. Looks like that pipe wrecked it's midrange. My bike is a street and trackday bike. I want more midrange not less. I don't know if this is the case with ZX10R, or 1000rr. But it has me thinking real hard.
