new u.s. pricing
Has anyone taken a look at the Kawasaki site lately to notice they've raised the price for the ZX10r from $10,699 to $10,999? Oh by the way I've been watching this forum for a couple weeks now and really enjoy it.

I had not checked the Kawasaki web site, but my friendly local Kawi dealer told me about the price increase today. I already had my deposit down and he did not even hint that the price increase would affect me.
What a coincidence, they raise the price the same day the specs are released.

found it - specs from kawasaki europe are at www.kawasakinewmodels.com - just remember that manufacturer numbers don't mean squat.

But You're lucky - we in Finland with our robbery taxes... Zx10R is lister 19780=23536$ So keep quiet... :-( But one thing about the prices in US. Aren't those always refered in mags, MSRP, etc without state taxes(~10%)? And do You know if there's any import tax for outside US vehicles. In Europe it is 10%.

we have no import tax and each state has its own sales tax set up with the avg probably being about 6%
