Heard from a reliable source these will come in at under 14k so read that as £13995 most likely.

Comparing to the competition that is an absolute bargain imo and Kawasaki will sell them by the boat load I'm sure.

Buy mine Cav and I'll upgrade to the 2016 beast (y)

You'd be quick riding a c90 so a 2013 zx10r would suit you very nicely ;)

My company has a job coming up with Kawasaki so maybe I should elbow my way onto the job and turn up on my ninja... ;) They might offer a discount - who knows!!

Let me guess Blade, you'll only charge £14k? ;) I'm not sure if I would be any quicker - at least not right away - on a thou because they're a different beast to ride. That said, I do try to make the corner a 'V' rather than a 'U' already so who knows, maybe I'm better suited to a thou

Very good value as my 2013 abs model was £13200.

TBH I don't know how they do it for the money.

I can see this bike winning group tests, dominating superstock and superbike racing classes and being a huge sales success for kawasaki.

Awesome motorcyxle which has been priced and spec'd extremely well.
