Spotted this over on the WERA board.... i'd hit it... can't wait to see it in FULL track trim (rearsets are gonna be interesting, exhaust too... Arata has one out already for it, looks killer)

**SVRACER01** · 12-30-05, 07:29 PM

it will prolly rev higher, and the #s say it makes comparative power but i dont think it will beat the sv on a track

I'm too proud of my handywork, there's no way I won't take credit for that... dude, that was in your sig for WEEKS!!!

**SVRACER01** · 12-30-05, 08:01 PM

now the whole "i would do something mean to you" remark makes sense

fucin asshole

**a13x** · 12-30-05, 09:04 PM

That looks sharp.

It will give SV's some trouble.

**Hardcore** · 12-30-05, 09:31 PM

the racebike version looks pretty cool EXCEPT for where the gas tank meets the seat looks like you'd be leaning against a brick wall--might be kinda tough to move your bodyweight forward !

**bentbryan** · 12-31-05, 07:18 AM

Ha! For you maybe!

**HBerry** · 12-31-05, 11:13 AM

Look at the oil filter on the exhaust page. Do you have to take the fucking exhaust off to change the oil?

**benVFR** · 12-31-05, 11:36 AM

Holy Shit!

They actually built a bike with the oil filter in a more retarded place then the VFR!

Hopefully that's just a dump prototype system that'll get fixed.

it's just an optical illusion--there's plenty of room to spin it off--ya only need 3/4"

**cbrf41999** · 01-01-06, 06:50 AM

My old FZR's were worse than that! But I am a whiner when it comes to oil spilling on my F4's pipes.

And where does all the fuckin oil go? All over the fucking pipe?

**cbrf41999** · 01-01-06, 11:38 AM

Hell my f4 dumps all ofver the pipes as well. I just packs some rags in there before I start,or put a plastic plate in there to divert the oil. It is a little oil, it aint gonna kill it. A couple of minutes at idle burns any residue off.

Why not? The stock SV handles like a donkey on the track.

Plus, the Kawi miraculously oozes style compared to an SV. Not that that's tough, but kawi doesn't usually make anything look good

Cmon!!! The Kwak team makes some of the best looking bikes outhere!!!! Usually they are as heavy kaw in class of horses! But they look purty! Like the ZX7R, the ZX9R. do they come out #1 in a comparison, never but they look great! And I would still to this day buy a ZX7R to have in my garge to have and hold till death due us part...

dont tell my wife i included that last line...

i dont know about a donkey.... ive never ridden one

and for what its got stock... it aint that bad. i thimk i coulda gotton into the 20s with mine. but with good suspenders i coulda shaved a few seconds off that easily

**Paul_E_D** · 01-01-06, 05:19 PM

Heh... I thought that would get you guys going!

FWIW I think the ZX-7 was one of the best looking modern Kaws.

**x2468** · 01-02-06, 12:43 AM

thats a good looking kawi. is that the Zixxer plastics?
