I don't give a rats ass about ABS or traction control.Just give me 190 HP and 125 FT LBS of torque.I don't drag race so I can do the rest.Like 16/43 sprockets and a full pipe with Power Commander.I only have 5700 on my 09 so I can wait.

Audioboyz If ya got 125 torque why the 16/43? Plus a tunable ecu doesn't neet no PC crap same with a well designed pipe saving money for stuff like more rear tires.

Disappointed with the transmission love the front end :}
This pic is fake. Look at the foremans vs. the video in the first post in this thread. The video shows 4 ribs up front changing to three in the rear. The picture has the same 4 ribs as a 2011.

If I have alot of torque then I want the gearing because I like it.If I could have a tunable ECU then that would be great.

Kawasaki, I hope you gave us a better shock this time around because the current one is crap. And I sure hope that swingarms, exhausts, and clutches, from the current model will work on the new bike too.

The video is real and from Kawasaki. The picture is def a fake. The foremans are 2011 and not the same as the video. Since you posted a still of the front from the video you can see that the headlights are different also. They are not 2011 headlights but they are not the same as the video either.

Rickey, answer one question if you can. The video shows the bore and stroke being a 1440cc. Is this what we are really getting??

The new 14 will be faster, but I don't think its going to be the increase we're looking for, because of political and marketing reasons. 13 hp just don't cut it anymore when you have 100lb lighter liter bikes putting out the same hp now. And like was mentioned earlier, thats the hp we can most likely expect with the new engine size. If you were happy with the 06 power increase then this should do you fine, otherwise I hope the electronics and looks really shine.
I just wonder what its going to cost?

If it really is 1440 with a 4mm increase in stroke I could care less if it only made a few HP more because the real exciting part is that the entire curve would likely be quite a bit more beefy and would probably feel a fair bit stronger throughout the rpm range..For the fellow that never visits the track it would make for a very flexible motor, extremely relaxed low rpm cruising down the highway in top gear and then on a brief overtake turns into a ferocious engine with just a twist of the throttle at any gear any rpm...Sure 1000cc bikes make great peak numbers, but if you like real thrust that you can access before you break the speed limit (or beyond or any gear any rpm) my guess is that the new bike will deliver it....You always hear bmw s1000rr fans talking about how they make more hp than a busa or ZX14 off the showroom floor yada yada....They just don't get it as 100 ft.lbs + torque feels a lot different than 79 ft.lbs at 10,500 rpm....That's why if it only made 10 more hp it's no big deal, wait till you see an overlay of the hp/ torque curve with that extra 4mm stroke.

This thing should have enough grunt in the mid to embarass even the lightest liter bikes.
Kinda like the difference between a 350 SBC and a 27 or 54.
Rumour has it that it will not come with a pannier bag option, but it will have side racks suitable to carry 200/50/17's
