Thanks a ton RCG!

I can't wait for racing season.


I absolutely LOVE the pinstriping on the ZX-10R's...too bad it's only temporary.


I plan on picking up a 2006 ZX-10R in a few months!

Now if they only didn't discontinue the races at PPIR...looks like I'll be riding to Utah!

The New ZX is an awesome ride... ilove the new twin Akropovich pipes they are running. THey have a subdued wail that just exudes horsepower!

I can't wait to hear them in person.

It's funny becaust I found a pic on Superbikeplanet.com this morning at work that's almost the same. Only with this pic there is flames comming out of both pipes.

I instantly made it my new wallpaper. :D

I think it's interesting that they changes the damper mount. It also looks like they (Kawasaki) are using a tail that looks more like the 04-05 ZX-10R tail instead of the more smooth tail of the 06.

Yeah that happens when you get everybody shooting the same corner at the same time. I waited for a long time to get the double flamer but it never materialized for me.

I was talking to Kawi a bit and that tail may not be the final (is there ever such a thing in racing) design. Seems they are still getting it together. They will be in Fontana Feb 8th for more testing.
