Nice looking bike.. comparisons with TZR but I's say teh fairing is straight of the FZ750 1FN model.. smaller headlight mind you!

Howeverafter 38 years developemsnt its just 15 BHP more from an extra 150cc.. plenty enough mind you.

the "news" over the weekend is that Yamaha dealers, for some extra coin naturally, have a lower fairing and some other bits to make it look even more 90's retro.

also, kawasaki has some 2024 colours that are very 90's zxr.

It's OK. Doesn't really float my boat that much but fair play to trying something different.

I do wonder if there is much of a market for it nowadays.

I can't say that I like it to look at. The front fairing reminds me of a cheap track bike. Don't listen to me I ride a lady's cruiser.
