I think I remember reading that the new 250 is gonna pull around 45 horses and get 7 or 8 more pounds of torque. I'm definitely gonna pick on up. Like sup_uni said, I'll be there campin out the night before.

Now that he's overcome his TGS, he doesn't need one.

So according to Kawasaki's specs, they lowered the compression ratio on the '08 along with the lower torque output. I wonder if this isn't done to help meet stricter emission standards?
