If you've got the disposable income

Realistically tho, 300hp is about 60hp more than a moto gp bike if I'm correct. and the carbon fiber bits on the bike and such. It's also a track toy only. It isn't street legal but the article alluded to detuned street legal versions being made. But yeah for $60k ..I could justify it if I had that kind of money, especially if the bike performs close to a moto gp level once they release some track footage and times

Yeah I like it!! From the front it kinda reminds me of a mix between a predator mask and one of the nazgul from lord of the rings totally bad @$$!!

I read the street version is being unveiled next month.

I know nothing about bikes - it just so happens friends of mine were discussing this on Fbook last week.

It looks like someone took a Lambo Veneno and compressed it to the max to fit a two wheeler and launched it.

Looks good but too many sharp edges for me. I prefer curves.

That should make for a lot of Darwin award candidates.

Thats ridiculous - a widow maker for middle aged minted yahoos going through a mid life crisis or going out with a 20 something year old.

Kawasaki might as well ship coffins with that mother if they are gonna sell em to the public

[Frontrunner]

I rather see Kawasaki putting some time and effort into a Moto GP bike and take up the fight to Honda and Yamaha rather than designing this mother they came up with.
