Wifey would wring my neck if I did. I really don't see that many advantages to the new one to make it worth the expense. Besides I like the look of the '04 and '05 better.

I imagine my '04 is going to be the last sportbike I every buy. Sport tourers are just too useful to ignore...

Pretty happy with the Sprint for my current needs. A new sport tourer might catch my eye, but I don't think any ZX/CBR/YZ/GSX is gonna do it for me. Now the ZZR1400... ____________

I just got mine. I wanted it and didnt want to wait for an 06. The looks just arent there for the 06. Cant beat the color either, got the red one (but still think it looks orange).

I'm with you Hells Dark Lord.. Kawasaki missed the mark with their undertail.. I love my new 05 and that pesky wheelie thing is just something I'll have to get use to.

got my 04 for right at the same amount, in 04....could have gotten any other color for less, but Black is by far the fastest color.......
