ZX10R...Could this be it?

This is from a japan site. I don't know if this is the actual finished product. Maybe someone else knows.

...I think the bike's 'face' lacks 'aggression'...looks like a certain Japanese cartoon character I've seen before, BUT the rest of the bike makes my pants tight!

The article says "A computer generated image of what the new ZX-10R is expected to look like".

In other words-

Motorcyclenews says it's computer generated. I thought that tail section looked a little too "square edgy". -ZXtra

I'm a little confused.

When you look closely at the front lower section of the tank, it almost looks like two seperate air intakes. Kinda like the R1's cold air intake. In this case, it looks like a large intake with a smaller one in the upper rear part of the large opening.

All the pics of the ZXRR GP bike show this area has some sort of cover that's seperate from the tank. Even on some of the riding pics. With KHI being the leader on ram air and airbox design, I'm hard pressed to see why these "secondary" intakes would be there without defeating the purpose of the front intake.

Yet those strange covers on the GP create more speculation then strange lights over Roswell. Why is't the area just covered by the tank? Is it some form of additional engine cooling or to keep heat from building up UNDER the airbox?

Opinions?

I'm thinking that the new ZX10R will be styled along much the same lines as the new ZX6R, except for maybe a bit bigger, a wider back rim and maybe slightly different head lights. -ZXtra
