Yeah mate, he does own one.

I think Kawasaki need something that truly competes with the Hire Bus.

Apparantly the new CEO at KHI is a bike buff, so he has started to get Kwika back to its former glory days of the mach IV, Z1, GPz900 mentality of bikes that Set New benchmarks. As opposed to re working old concepts to death which is whats been happening more recently. (I personally dont mind a good rework as i bought a new ZX9R after the ZX10R was due for release)
Thats whom we have to thank for the Ground breaking ZX10r n the new range of 6rs. Both which have turned more then a few heads. Dont mourn the loss of any models till you see what will be replacing them. I think Kwikas are gonna "Go Big or Go home" in the near future.

Fair enough, I will shut up.lol
I know when I have been beat.
Red wine and teenagers in trouble don't make scotty a good poster.

ZZ-R1000?

ooh-ooh - sounds like my next bike

Well, you can always cut down on the suspense and just buy a ZX9.

I-K - you wouldn't happen to be also known as IntactKneeslider on aus.moto would you?

Seeing how I've taken to using the acronym on there, too... what do you reckon?

So Mick is he ?. As for the 9r I-K think mick may have a short story for ya.

Ah, haven't been on aus.moto for a while so hadn't noticed that.
