Not a bad bike in the whole lot.
You will never guess that was fastest at the track.
Shannon Johnson had his times taken all day. All will be revealed in the mag.
The test will be split over 3 mags.
Japs (sub 20k) 1st mag
Mid range (20-27k) 2nd mag
High end (27+) 3rd mag.

All bikes hitting the dyno on the next few days.

Test was a massive eye opener for me. The track results were pretty clear cut and unanimous.
Road will be quite different! Good luck in picking a winner there!

From what I saw Shannon was absolutely flying on the HP4 :shock: He looked scary fast into turn one on it.

The 1st issue will have the sub 20k class (all the jappas)

Second will have the 20-27k class
Then the 27+ class.

Agree with the verdict. I liked the front end and the tank ergonomics but..........
I bought the kwaki because it was the only one that put a grin on my dial.
