Wow....I probably wouldn't know what to do on this thing. (But I'd love to test my ignorance.)

2013 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R (ABS) | Preview | Motorcycle News

 

hmm, 197bhp after the mandatory 20hp decrease to meet U.S. standards....I am more curious on how the new suspension works out for the 10r (I have not read any reviews on the 2012 model.)

 

^yeah....I noticed that HP thing, too. I wonder if there is a cut/paste/re-map mod to bring those ponies back.....?

 

and in all seriousness, I get a perma grin from even riding my lowly 165hp 10r without the Race Intake Cam. I can scare myself with it just as fast, let alone 197 ponies and $14k from the wallet. I need to look at the power curves on this thing. 197 seems super wild and most of the time toted as such. But heck, looks good on paper.
