Mate, should have asked him whether the 2005 ZZR600 is making it down-under, and is really a part-for-part replacement with a 2002 ZX-6R :lol:

Mick, this is Marks reply.. and some info on an S model z750...

Hi Dave,

ZZ-R600 (ZX600-E) remains as is for Australia, don't know about other
markets, but I haven't seen anything to indicate a new model so it's
doubtful at this stage. The 05 ZZ-R600 will be silver and apart from
the
colour change (03 and 04 were blue) it's the same... Which I reckon is
good
'cause the ZZ6 is a great sports tourer and has a loyal following here
in
Aus. Other bikes that have come into the line up elsewhere include the
Z750S, maybe it's on our list for 06? The S has a nifty half fairing
and
good pillion grab rails, but, sadly, it's not for us... Time will tell.

Thanks Dave, very much obliged.

Either way I'm a happy boy, and the '05 is still on the cards unless they have a '04 still hanging around for heaps less that is :lol:

...had a look at the Z750S on the US Kawasaki website, nice looking bike. As well as their 'ZZR600' in "(name of color) blue" :lol:

I find the situation where the Yanks call one bike a ZZR600, while we call a completely different bike the same thing, entirely bizarre :?
