Re: 2006 Kawasaki ZX-10R thoughts

I'm a Honda fan. Have been and I will be, no matter what else I might own.
That being said, I like the Kaw, but not the 10, I'm patiently waiting on the ZX-14 to arrive. I can't wait to build a Busa beater for the Strip.

However, if the 14 comes in and sucks in person I'm gonna leave it on the showroom floor and see what Honda does next year. My hopes are that they bring the Blackbird back, otherwise I will definitely be on a CBR1000RR - in Black of course.

Re: 2006 Kawasaki ZX-10R thoughts

The 14 will be fast for sure but in person it is actually uglier than in pictures. It just looks HUGE! I don't like how the fairings completely hide the bike... but I understand why they did that; the monocoque frame on that bike is not pretty.

I'm curious what Honda will do with the 'Bird... a bit excited, a bit scared.

Rest assured. You will be disapointed. As much as it saddens me, it's a cold hard fact.
