Re: supercharged kawasaki
Thing is it should be relatively light. But with the blower it's going to have serious grunt.
The triumph rocket, does. Seen it BBQ run seem toremember it manages quite sharp bends.,albeit to the detriment of its pegs

Re: supercharged kawasaki
A guy in NZ is fitting GSXR rear sets to his with a new linkage for the gear changes, there's hope yet

Re: supercharged kawasaki

Re: supercharged kawasaki
One thing I've leant.
Ride for yourself. If you get done speeding etc it's you that takes the fall. And I've lost good mates through the red mist syndrome. Older and hopefully wiser now

Re: supercharged kawasaki
"The price? Between 30.000 and 50.000 euros depending on which version: street legal (H2) or track (H2 R)." Ouch!!

Re: supercharged kawasaki
Yes, it's going to be expensive and it's great to see something new happening. At the moment it is just a bit of flag flying, muscle flexing & Mama Kawa saying look we can be top dog again. But in time this kind of technology will work it's way down to mid capacity machines at a more affordable level. They have tried forced induction before but it never really caught on. Maybe this time?

Re: supercharged kawasaki
Almost a concept bike really though aye, not really in reach for most of us. And at 200hp for a road bike it's not much more power wise than the current crop of 1000cc superbikes, but like you say it's good something new is happening, it can only push boundaries.
I'd like to see smaller CC engines, like say the nicely balanced 675 triple, having turbo's fitted to see what they can do...ultra lightweight but with uber power...more like the 2 stroke days in a way
