I actually like the look of it. Dump the exhaust for an after market piece and it will look sweet.

Kawasaki, Honda (?), Yamaha and now Aprilia hitting the 200 bhp mark but I would like to see a comparison of the torque figures for all these bikes...will the Kwak H2 trump them all or have they unnecessarily gone for a turbo on a road bike (forgetting the 300bhp track version!)....some awesome road tests should be coming soon

The Zzr was capable of the 200bhp with a few simple mods, that every day people do anyway(cans, air filter Etc).
It hits top speed in fifth gear, so bugger knows what the H2 is capable of with the supercharge.

I do like that nice trellis frame and those Mv style wheels. Such a tart as always
