Are you friggin serious Kawi? It's been the same friggin bike for years. The H2 is a big hunk of shit and the new ZX-10r SE is overpriced and so yesterday. Can we get something exciting? I don't care if the latest Gen is the most winning bike in WSBK. :thefinger_red: All the bikes are getting choked down by electronics and emissions standards. There is nothing out there that I am excited for. BMW needs a new platform, the R1 is ugly as fuck, I can't even look at the front without a cringe, a fish on wheels. The Aprilia is overweight, reliability is like gambling, been the same model for years. The Gixxer is way overpriced, comes with a gameboy dashboard and tractor flashers and looks really gixxer alike!:dontknow: Ducati is for the Starbuck queers with Dainese super thigh leathers that put 500 KMs a year on the rear tire, The Fireblade has no character at all, just another pile of shit Honda with no soul, way underpowered with nice welds lol. There is nothing out there that just trigger me, that get me pumped to go buy it. The sportbike scene is bland as fuck.:frown2:

The 2004-2005 was the almighty unicorn from Kawasaki. It just went downhill from there. :lol:

Try a Gen 4 - you'll never go back

Been there, done that. I still prefer my Gen 2 for real world riding. Were I track only, then I'd want a Gen 4. It's proper for that, but just isn't better for street usage than my Gen 2.

You know, I loved my 05 so much I dropped over 20k into upgrades each time I rebuilt it. After the third time and realizing that you cant get reliability out of a bike that has been built with full on race parts and coming to terms with the money pit that my gen 1 had become I broke down and picked up a 2017 abs zx10r. Took me all of 3 days to fall in love with it. I didnt like the jerky abrupt throttle response at all but that bike got stolen from me after 4 months. Got a 2018 abs krt and flashed it right away, fixed the throttle and really just woke up the beast. Totaled that on 2 months in and that was December 2018. Just over a year later and I have 15k miles on my zx10r se, love the shit out of this bike. Have dumped retarded money into it but have a very much one of a kind all mine sick bike that gets complemented everywhere I go and from every kind of rider, harleys included which always comes as a shock to me. I never see another bike and think, damn I wish I had that instead. Only thing I do wish I had was cruise control like the BMW has or a dash like the r1m. The dash is doable the cruise isnt. Still the bike is fucking sick. Gen 1 was my first true love as far as bikes go, I was one with that bike, never have quite been able to get there with the gen 5 but I'm getting close. Have 11 months of actual seat time on gen 5s though so I'm sure I will fully acquaint myself with this one soon. Point is, the gen 1 while bad ass for it's time, has nothing on a gen 5, and I mean nothing. Sure it was light and short wheel based and came on like a raped ape but the gen 5 will spank the fuck out of the gen 1 in every way every time and every day

Hilarious thread. Did the guy ever get another bike? It's funny because the Gen 6 seems like a copy paste of the Gen 5, but took one of the best looking bikes IMO and made it the ugliest. I'm sure he got a good laugh out of it.

The WSBK machines have nothing to do with the production bikes sit on the floor at the dealership

Stop using that silly argument OMFG.

Look, here the new champion : WorldSBK

Why Kawasaki have to design everything like an Origami? What is wrong with smooth sexy lines? The whole Ninja lines is weird AF.

The 2004 ( 17 years ago) Kawi MotoGP bike had better lines!!
