Anyone that whinges about even a standard ZX12 being underpowered needs a slap upsides the head!!! Im not saying that its not nice to have a few extra ponies though dont get me wrong.

Getting it shipped in might be a good idea, will keep you lot updated
yeah i heard something like that too. as the other rumour is the busa is gonna be a 1500cc

Team moto at albion here in Qld reckon they ordered the last 10 in and they sold like hotcakes. They have 2 black ones on the floor both with sold stickers. The floor manager says that those were the last as Kwak is discontinuing them. Their speculation is the zx 12 motor bored out to a 1400 then thrown in a revamped zzr 12 body with USD. Apparently the zzr-12 has got the death knoll too. Be interesting to see where they go from here :?

Yep I was kinda expecting the ZZR12 to also be replaced by this new 'super' sports tourer. Basically this new ZZR14 is going to have the 'sport' of the ZX12R and the 'tourer' of the ZZR....should be cool 8)

Surely the venerable ZZR6 is also due to be axed in 06 :?: It's had a great run and without any major changes it's getting a little long in the tooth. I'm just hoping they do the same thing as they have done in America and replace the ZZR6 with a re-badged 'budget' ZX636R circa 2001.

I'd probably buy one myself if they did! :wink:
