Last year, a French web site, Moto-Station, was first to break cover on many 2004 models. This year, they have broken the story on the new Kawasaki ZX-10R with pictures from the site http://www.sportbikerider.us. This isn't some Photoship special, but rather a motorcycle with some unique design features.
A picture of the supposed new ZX-10R.
Note the following:
A picture of the supposed new ZX-10R.
Note the following:
- Unique engine that appears totally new
- Monocoque frame like the ZX-12R
- Radial calipers WITH wave-style rotors
- Banana swingarm
- Unique wheels with thin spokes -- forged aluminum?
- Tank is too small to be anything other than an airbox cover suggesting fuel is carried under the seat
