zx-bigger than a hyabusa?
Some time ago there was talk that Kawasaki was developing a bigger than zx-12 bike, zx-15 maybe? It was just loose talk at the motorcycle sto...
I know it is not politically correct to build big giant sport bikes that go the speed of light for the last few years(at least overtly) but we got Republicans in the white house now, it is all good in the crazy big and fast neighborhood right?
Was there any truth to these rumors?

Hey with Kawasaki these days you never know! All's I know is there is a JetSki now with a ZX15R motor in it! Funny............I was wondering about the same thing.

I remember when I first joined this board, someone had posted a ZX-20R...anyone still have that pic? It might have been a poster for Kawi, but I distinctly remember it.

After seeing the ZX10 #'s I don't think there's no need for a 15.

Maybe not, but just imagine a 12r, 13r or larger with a more compact engine and 75lbs less. It may not be needed but if that was the case we'd all be riding 500r ninjas instead of 10r's, 12r's etc. It's not what we need, it's what we want!!!!! SPEED
