Oh dear, oh dear oh dear.

So, anyone know any good loan companies?

Sounds like my kinda fun... unfortuantely I so /would/ crash it and instantly wipe out many thousands pounds .

[Ste]

Where's the queue for them?

Roll on next year:

1. for my test ride
2. for my pay rise
3. for any bonus I may get

So I can then buy one - though I fear I'll not be able to afford it next year and it will have to be the year after that I get it. Still I'll get my test ride of it next year.

I hope that the kwak is as good as it sounds. Over the past years honda, yamaha and suzuki have had the best litre bike and it's about time kawasaki got the crown.

sounds like great fun if you're Rossi, bet quite a few of those end up in the scrap yards.

A bloke has a slightly less powerful (11 hp less) pre-production ZX10R and did a standing 1/4 mile in 9.21 seconds at 148mph.

It also does 104 mph in 1st and has reached 183 mph before it ran out of straight at daytona speedway.

The New Yamaha R1 is even quicker just to let you know.

It's the new Blade that's been cleaning up a Daytona though.

MCN seem to think it has one of the worst gearboxes they've ever come across in a japanese bike, they should have tried my R6!

G - No mate, I'm talking about the Dunlop tyre tests at Daytona.

Dusty - Don't get me wrong, I think my R6 was a great bike but the gearbox was shite, even after 6k miles it was shite. Honda's not renowned for great boxes but it's miles better than the Yam. They could both learn a thing or two from Aprilia of all people.

The report in MCN was relating to the Daytona tyre test.

The CBR was described as 'AMA superbike spec'; Lap time 1:47.65

The R1 as built to 'Superstock' regulations; Lap time 1:49.50

The ZX10 as 'Road bike with race fairings and slick tyres'; Lap time 1:50.57

The GSXR1000 was as 'Superbike trim'; Lap times 1:49.93


I wanna ZX10! (until I see the rest of the road test reports ).

I bought MCN last night on the way home from work... shhesh that bike looks quick. They (MCN) reckon it feels even smaller than the ZX6-R with sharper handling to boot. Add to that 181.7bhp and a glorious front end with perfect brakes and you get the impression they like it

/me wants the orange (US colours) one

I read the MCN report and didn't think they raved about it particularly, which is unusual as they usually rave on about any new superbike. Still perfer the looks of the R1, but its about time Kawasaki pulled something out of the bag, they've needed something to compete with the big boys in the litre class for a while now. Don't suppose any of the mags can comment too much at the moment until the group tests start though.
