Well, ZX10 is right, right? How'd you like to see a ZX10 with a zx12 engine? Now there's something to talk about

I've mirrored this thread into the ZX10R Zone.
For those of you who dont know... it's part of the site and it's in the main index.... I expect it will be filling up pretty quickly here in the next few months as the release of the bike is pending.
My sources tell me that everything is a done deal, right down to color.
The only thing left hanging is the name.. and I have some pretty good guesses...

I always thought it was gonna be, "ZX-10RR", or maybe just one "R".
All of the photoshopped images seem to be saying only one "R".
As long as it's a Gixxer 1K killer, I'll be happy.
How about: YOROIDOSHI? It's an armor piercing knife, with a blade length of less than 12 inches.
It sounds EVIL.

I think they're gonna go 'old school' and bring back the name: Ninja 1000R. Well, at least I hope they do so I can have an '86 and an '04 Ninja 1000R.

Whatever they decide to call it, I hope the engineers incoprporated a paper towel dispenser on the handlebars to mop up all the drool on the tank when people are sitting on it. (including mine)

It's gonna have to spank gixxers, as the "dinosuar" 7r still does with a good tuner.
As for the R1, I anticipate Yamaha will be forced to make a litre bike that can handle better than a '48 coupe in the next season or so. Is it just me, or is anyone else tired of watching them get picked up off the racetack?
