I love this 06 ZX 10 R!!
The more I look at it and think about the concept ,the more I like this unique idea of this 06 ZX 10 R.

Think about it! It's different, lower center of gravity and just imagine the aftermarket exhaust ideas. Plus lighter too! I just hate what I see that is over the net on the ideas of the ZX 10 R with friggin undertails!!!

Well, yeah, but that chop isn't allowing any volume at all for an under-motor muffler.
That may or may not be a good concept, I dunno, but the comparison has to be with a real such exhaust system, such as on the Buell, which is a lot more bulky than the above 'chop.
I still am missing why the standard exhaust configuration is not still the best?

I like the clean look of the chop. If they could make the thing make more HP it would be pretty cool. I don't think that is a chop, more like a concept mock up.

This image does not match the information released by Kawasaki about the '06 ZX10. Too bad. I liked this one better.

Kawasaki has not yet released any info about the 06 ZX-10R. When they do members of this site will be the first to receive it. Quite literall[y the second it is made available.

Well, either they have released some info, or MCN is lying, as they fairly plainly state that Kawasaki stated various things about the bike:

Here... I'll quote myself so you can read what I said again... I'll even say it again in bold type to help you absorb the data...

Again, "...to raise the centre of gravity, making the bike turn faster..." just doesn't seem right to me.

I guess that proves then that Kawasaki has not released any info on the ZX-10R to anyone else, MCN must be smoking crack?? Or perhaps they hired the services of a really good remote viewer. And are liars, Kawasaki has said none of that.

MCN is pretty much the National Enquirer tabloid of the motorcycle "news" world. Gotta take anything printed there with a grain of salt, or a crack rock. Don't know if they smoke crack or not

Well, pretty stupid of them to make such specific claims if they are lying, when there will be tons of info so shortly.
I was surprised that none of the "photoshop" claimers claimed that the MCN pic was a photoshop, when apparently every advance pic is claimed as being supposedly obvious photoshop, even say the R6 pics. I certainly don't think it is (nor the R6 pics.)

Today, it sounds like MCN was not smoking crack after all.
