I really hope they kept the motor platform close to the current one so that parts can be swapped.

You figured they would have dumped the George Foreman grills. Kawasaki has been pretty cheap with bodywork for quite some time. I guess that's one of their signatures. I would think most people would want them to change the case designe back to normal.

They kept grills, but the shape looks changed. Ditto with the headlights. So, the styling cues of the 14 are still there....which is a plus to me since I was always fine with the headlights and the grills anyway. Most people don't care about the case design..it's only a relative handful of racers that really care, imo.

lets say they added 2mm stroke. I'd rather purchase the crank for lets say 1000 instead of selling my modded 06 for 8000 and then having to pay the 13000 + it'll cost for a new bike and start over.
parts I hope would transfer
crank
head
rods
exhaust

Lee, are you saying that the bike is supercharged? If so, what % of truth to you believe in the comments of the person you spoke with?
