One word..

FARKINAWFUL

It looks tres bian! Where do I sign?



The article however, seems to be written in le Frogge...

le Ribbet!

le Ribbet!

Maybe the bike should be green?

what is that thing???

Pretty out there, but it'll probably grow on me. At least it's different, glad Kawa is chasing some aggressive styling.

Yeah kinda like a cheap ass z750. No doubt aimed at the Buell, SV650, MT01 etc etc end of the market.

they've almost got it... almost...

ive seen worse...hmm look at that swing arm....twin front discs...its gunna b more a z600 than an er6....

I haven't done French since Year 11, so I didn't understand a word of that article. Does anyone know if that's anything more than an artist's wannabe?

I'm not sure whether I like it or not. It's certainly 'unusual'. I do like the colour, and although it looks like a Japanese Buell, I'm not sure that's a good thing.

by gawd that thing is ugly.

here's a (bad) translation.

mix both together and you might get something legible.

I gotta say, I reckon that's one sweeeet looking piece of machinery! I havea heap of other pics of it here, but since I can't post them, you'll all just have to suffer i nyour jocks.

It looks awesome in green and black.

Aparently it's a 650cc parallel twin.

Have you guys seen the stripped down CBR 1000RR naked in the latest AMCN? supposedly Yamaha is going to hit back with a naked "R1" so wonder what Kwaka has installed.

I am personally standing by for the 06 Z1000, might be lucky and it will be a naked ZX10R. Sweeeeeet. Not that I will be able to buy it but gotta have something to drool over.

'Bout time they took the Sv650 head on. Anyone able to Get a seat height for it ?. Could be the key to them selling a lot or a little.
Personally i think its as "Ugly as a hat full of clackers", but so are most of the new Nakeds so I'm sure it'll grow on me.

Looks more like a superduke to me but its probably just the headlights and its being aimed at europe.

Would be worth a test ride if the actual bike still looks like the concept picture by the time they release it.

Looks like a rip-off of the Benelli TNT. Just like the FZ6 Yamaha is a rip off of the MV Agusta Brutale. The Japanese are great imitators.
