I was in Melbourne yesterday (for one day). During lunch I went into Cosways Kawasaki Dealer @384 Elisabeth st. and saw the new 2005 ZZR600, aka ZX600, E13 (3 pics below). In October I was told by NSW Kawasaki rep. the 2005 colour would be silver. The actual colour is light silver, dark frame and no graphics.
Apparently there were 2 shipped to Vic with another lot expected in April. The silver E13 replaces the 03/04 blue colour. The price is same as 2004 model, $12,790 +otr
Call me biassed but I still prefer the
darker 2002,E11 colour with graphics.
Not sure when or if we'll see the
new shape ZZR600 but it looks like the ZZR600 (ZX600) will still be available in Australia in 05.

It just seems a bit dull, like it's missing something - maybe it's the lack of graphics or the darker frame? Not sure...

Yeah I'd say it's the lack of graphics, black mirrors & rear grip bar, and especially the greater contrast between the body colour and dark frame.

I think you're right - be interesting to see what comes out here in Sydney.
Am glad they are still the same seat height anyway

No competition in my mind Silver Fox. Your colour scheme is definitely much nicer than the new model. Just looks plain

looks like a modernised up Gpz 600 to me

I think that's going a bit too far
It's not bad for a light coloured bike - the mirrors and grab-rail colour matched would've been better.
I'm not keen on the light colours though anyway - like em dark and mean
