yes mate, I think they are a 4-2-4 set-up on a stock NM 1000. I think these bikes look fantastic with a 4-1 hi-rise Yoshi or Akra system. I think you can even get a *cough* Kerker for the NM zeds :shock: :shock: ( only the older and wiser Jedi's will recognise the significance of the Greater God of Zorst's..........Kerker :P )

and don't the new bikes get a flogging here !!! :lol: its just the green-eyed monster :wink:

I will be lining up for a *flog*, sorry, gentle test ride on the Z1400, when they are released........

:D

i've just found my next bike. :D
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

The mag in the original post, Young Machine, are pretty much the inventors of the speculative new-bike Photochop. They've brought us the 2000cc, flat-eight GoldWing, the 2000cc V-Max, the 1300cc R1-based thing Yamaha were building to go up against the 'Busa and the ZX12, the V5-engined VFR1000 and Blackbird and a whole heap of other pipe dreams which never eventuated.

Coming home from the Snowy Ride yesterday, there was a girl with a black '03 Z1K-NM (red seat) with a quad shorty carbon muffler set-up; *that* looked wikkid.

You know, it would be great if we had someone on the forum who could translate Japanese..........can you spot the little "320" directly under the zorst pipes ??? I bet this is some reference to a 320kmh 'naked' bike :shock: :shock:

"......Olive !!! where's me Spinach !!!!"

I once had a spec sheet for Yoshimura camshafts translated from Jappa to Engrish, the girl who did it knew sweet FA about muddaboikes, but she did a really good job.......I will try and dig it out and scan it, it makes a pretty funny 'read'.... :lol:

They've also been right on the money from time to time.

Looks like a Photoshop job of the Z1000 and the neww ZZR1400, especially with those "low fat grillers" stuck on the side. I wouldn't hold my breath :roll:

Yep but some Kwacky bod might see it and think 'that's a great idea!'
