    Im Early But keen to hear? 2007 ZX6R

    Ive heard a few rumours, larger capacity again. Similar looks to the 06 ZX10R.
    So anyone got any links or info on what we may see?
    I checked out the 06 10, what a machine. The sheer sound of the thing blew me away.

    I've heard they're going to blow the 600 class apart and rebadge the 10.

    it's gonna have 3 pipes out the back, bored to 650, and run around 155rwhp while it revs out to 20,000rpm, with fly-by-wire and traction control. Wheelie gyro is optional..
    It also looks like the ZX10, but sleeker and lower

    i would love them to do another 750.

    a cross between old school style and new school technology would be wicked.

    That's so funny. They shot themselves in the foot? You mean producing a bike aimed at the 600 class that has outsold all the others worldwide was a mistake? (read that statistic in a UK bike mag) I'm sure Kawasaki don't see it that way or their Shareholders. Do you think they were gutted to see that the 05 636 also won the Masterbike 600 class and came 3rd across all sportsbikes at Masterbike. Well the Kawasaki Board must be really upset by that outcome, but counting all the dollars rolling in the door might just ease the pain of apparently getting it wrong. I guess if selling motorbikes was there business then it would have been OK.

    I'd say! It took some thinking outside the square to cheat where it doesn't really matter a shit (on the street)...and it worked for them. Go Kawasaki, 'cos even if they weren't better street bikes, they're cooler.

    Heh heh... As well as ripping of Kawasaki stying Triumph are stealing the capacity pushing thing too.

    I expect Kawasaki will come out with an 800cc ZX8r to match up with the future MGP bike.

    800 is the new 1000.

    And as far as sportsbikes go, they've always said the don't sell what they don't race...

    Sedge.

    You should try and wait for the 08. It will be marginally better again. I've heard rumours the 09 is amazing. The 2010 will be out of this world.

    Your choice.
