Hehe yer right,

But can we say anything and not be seen as defensive?

Yes, I believe it would be "Damn, Kawasaki have replaced my bike with a better one, however, I'm happy with mine, so I'm going to keep it because it's not worth as much now."

I don't see it as better having ridden both, better for KHI advertising for having "the worlds most powerful production bike" IMO

I think the updates and variant models when/if they come on the 14 will be the decider for me.

Hahha..... YET!!! but when they do... mann, you're all going to cop it for justifying your bike over the new one!! (shame about the 06 10.. had so much potential) but hey? Atleast you know KAWASAKI got it RIGHT with the ZX14 because they replaced 2 BIKES With ONE!!

Hang on, it was .6 extra HP that mine made and its obviously due to the fact its green.....
The much faster 04 green that is, as the 05 green isn't quite as fast...

Sorry, the 0.2 was how much more the titanium 05 makes compared to the slower green 05's...at least they are all better than those black ones

Hey watch it Titanium boy. At least I can polish mine so it looks shiny.... errr the bike that is, I was talkin' about the bike alright.

The 12 wins hands down.. I'm not biased though.

they got their demo machine early last week I believe
and my name is on the list for a test ride
..just waiting for the phone call, to come and take it for a spin

Well.. I just checked in at the kawasaki head quarters, what they thought about the twelve, accouple of the engineers wanted to keep it in, with some slight changes.

They were kind enough to send me a sketch of what they were going to mod on it before crapping it for the _better_ zx14

C'mon boys,

the world knows that the D model 1100 was the best Kwakka ever made. Everyone also knows that the 05 10 metallic spark black was the fastest colour.

Anyone who had any sense at all would own a metallic spark black D model 1100.

(Now theres an idea)
