Stop getting our hopes up. A ZX750-800cc sports bike would be awesome.
They stated that it's only their artists impression of what one might look like so why are you all getting upset at the looks? Pointless.

Sorry but the front it looks very similar to the new Ducati motoGP replica $100,000 thingy & everyone thinks that looks good :sick:

I was more intereted in the article below it. Looking forward to seeing that new Aprilia V4 (which WILL be coming out, as opposed to that kwaka that probably wont), and its good to see the new Tuono Factory. Shame they havent sorted out the ugly headlight arrangement on it, it's the one bit of styling in the Aprilia range that isnt up to scratch IMO.

Kinds looks like a beached alien whale... but I think it might be one of those looks that grows on you...

We hope Kawasaki will launch an 800
somehow I don't think Kawa do stuff on the wish of a website..
But a lot of people have been saying their fav brand will be dishing out an 800cc bike for a while.. and some probably will.. just wouldn't hold me breath

I actually quite like it, as someone said it's reminiscent of the Ducati. The only part that I don't really like the look of is the tail and it's a standard fare ZXish tail.
