    ZX10 2016 model

    Who Knows what about them as yet from int web sites. I have always really liked the Kawi. The first road bike I ever rode was a 500 when I was 11, haha, the owner "shakey", had to balance it for me to get going, as I could not touch the ground, lol. Good old Patea streets, Ron Roach the old cop there, just turned a blind eye to it. The good old days eh.

    Those "double barrel" forks look cool. What are they actually called and how do they work? Seen them on GP bikes.

    That article says the pistons are 5kg lighter. How'd they manage to get a large bag of potatoes out of the pistons?

    I wish the other bike manufacturers could get the styling of the lower fairing right. If you remove the fugly cat off most of the latest bikes you end up with an ugly hole where the cat was.

    Have a look at the new Kwaka and the Yammy R1. and a swag of others.

    Basically YES. They are gas charged Forks. Fit the race ECU to one of these babies, and they are serious serious weapons. I have one of these babies on order to arrive next month, now just to find the money to pay for it lol
