Apparently the new model will incorporate some radical new design ideas, heralding a complete departure from traditional sportbike styling.

Latest rumour is that the testers have become very critical of the design team however, citing a belief that in the pursuit of groundbreaking styling initiatives, the company has compromised rider safety.

I managed to source a pic of the prototype from a mate of a mate. I've gotta admit Kawasaki can make a pretty sexy looking bike but I tend to agree with the testers, you wouldn't catch me on one of them.

maybe the rubber goes around the rim like tank tracks?

and the rim only moves when you want to climb stairs?

imagine that, a sports bike with a half metre long, constant contact patch, rubber to ground on both tyres.

That would be the rumoured 'speed hump road' model. Works perfectly on roads comprised totally of speed humps.
