So they are finally releasing the special edition in Australia? Awesome...

Hmmm something to think about.

That looks pretty horn I reckon.

Looks good with the bikini fairing and cafe racer seat too.

This edition wasn't planned for release in Australia, and once I knew it was out there it turned me off the original chrome/green look.

Horn!!!

that looks absolutely sensational !!! Spoked rims, black paint job, single seat, bikini fairing......I wonder where they got their inspiration from ????

With that much black,some chrome pipes would be juicy!!

I spoke to Hills Motorcycles over the phone who gave me the auditory equivalent of the blank stare. The guy didn't even know what a special edition was let alone whether they had one. They were supposed to return my call with info but never did.

Seems they aren't available in Australia yet? I know with the original W800 supply is/was a problem. Couldn't get enough of em into the country to meet demand.

I didn't like it when I saw the first picture but this one is pretty sweet!!!

I just bought an old (read 'poor condition') CB500F on an impulse and my plan now is to turn it into a cafe racer if I can find some mechanical talent in me. I was surprised to see how big the market for that stuff is!!! I hadn't even looked into it properly until I'd bought the bike (last week) but it seems to be a growing trend and folks overseas are spending a mint on those bikes! Good on Kawasaki for offering something like that!

Love it!

I appreciate them doing a recreation of a sixties Kawasaki. Why don't they do a modern Z9? Would be much more popular.
