Discussion
MCN are reporting that the replacement for the current fireblade is going to weigh in at 165kg with 160bhp.
As an aside, and kind of related to the discussion about cages in general gassing, I've got a horrible feeling that the first poor sod to wipe themselves out on a stock bike with 1000bhp/tonne will have the police (i.e. the ct in charge in N. Wales) and the speed kills lobby demanding that they're banned from the roads.

My local Kawasaki dealer (who also used to be a sponsor and a former LeMans racer) has promised to phone me whenever he gets any confirmed info on the ZX10R, I'm looking at ordering one of the first few to arrive for the road. I expect more info to be avaliable mid sept i.e after the Millan Show, and the first road versions arriving around christmas time. Oh yes and Hawk Kawasaki apparently got theirs this week to start development work on.
Badapple, yep saw the trumpet, i have to say i'm not usually a big bike fan but the MCN image looks the bo**ocks. Gotta hand it to them with the Daytona 600 looks like triumph is going from strength to strength. I guess now it looks like we're going to get some good products? will consumer interest will go up? Is this the brit bike come back??
