New- Big K gets has finally updated their 250 range for 2008

Post by Stereo »

The GPX or ZZR looks to be on its way out with the newly SuperSportesque 250 hitting the shops in 2008. The bike will sport an inline twin engine similar to the GPX but the engine has been redesigned to give a bit more torque. The Brakes are now twin two pot callipers..

Most importantly the entire look of the bike has been re-designed.

Available in black and also in kawasaki green... This is sure to turn a few heads..

TBH, this incarnation is a bit sad... apparently it's down on power compared to the venerable GPX and is 15 kilograms heavier!!!

parallel twin... :roll:

least the big K could do is whack a decent four cylinder engine in it to make it worthwhile.

i think the CBR250RR is safe for now.

so if a learner got one and dropped it and couldn't afford to replace fairings, changed the pllion seat for a hump, added some flames would it qualify as a street fighter?
