Default No more ZZR

I just noticed on the Kawi site that they no longer carry the ZZR 600. I could have sworn it was on there like a week ago or so. Comments, opinions, links to news articles of them announcing it's discontinue?

East coast USA, and I already did a google search and didn't find anything about them canceling the ZZR, but I could have missed something.

Well the bright side (for me anyway) is that at least I'm not crazy. I was surprised because like a week before making this thread I looked at it on the website and they even had a video showcasing it at the 2008 bike show. It was on my list of considered bikes. Guess if I want one it will have to be a used one.

I was at the dealership not too long ago. I asked about what colors were going to be available for '09 and they said they are no longer in the lineup. It's a shame too. I figured '09 they were going to go to the 636.

aawww damn, the zzr6 is such a good bike . maybe they will bring it back in 2010 after a year break with the 03-07 6r specs. who knows, the economy makes bike/car dealerships do incredibly weird things.
