eh.. looks can be improved upon..

i believe 10000000000% tho that they should come back out with another 750. zook is the only one in this class now. it used to be everyone but honda was making an upper-middle class bike. ZX7-R, GSX-750R and R7 (yes. it DOES exist. only like 200 were made tho.. )

now, its just suzuki holdin it down.

Not to bad but that green seat will be toast in under a year. And yes the exhaust looks like crap but it can be replaced.

ohh come on guys, this bike has mountains of potential. the look and the performance on this bike have barly been scratched. you are all sounding like my wife when she sees a wrecked s2000. she just sees twisted metal when in fact it is the begining of a legasey!!!!

give this thing a chance kawi is going to kill gp with this bike!!!

needless to say i really like it. i need to get this one and give the 06 to her

Congrats to Kawi for making the ugliest 1000 and now the ugliest 600. Fire the designers and get new ones allready!

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I like it. There was a motorcycle show in houston last weekend and I got to get on one (but not ride it ). Its a lot less hard on the "man area" to me as compared to the 08s and doesnt make me feel like im going to go flying off the front like i do on my friends 03 636. At 5'10", I can reach the ground, flat footed, easily. Which i cant do on my friends 636 and some of the other manufacturers bikes...I can reach the ground easily, but cant put my feet flat on the ground...I like that.

Comes stock with a steering stabilizer, black brake and clutch levers, a recessed tank so i dont have to buy a double bubble later, and gloss black wheels. Only thing I would change is the exhaust (which doesnt look as bad in person) and pin stripes on the wheels in the candy surf blue (my future bike as long as it doesnt take them a long time to get them out)

Which brings me to my question. Does anyone know when these things are supposed to come out? I've heard everything from theyre shipping now, to they wont start shipping til March. My old bike recently bit the dust so I'm looking for a new one, but I'm not waiting 3 months to get a new one. I'll buy an 08 cbrr600 before I wait that long. So if anyone has any info on the shipping date of these things, I'd be greatly appreciative!
