Hope I am wrong, but I don't have much faith in Kawasaki to release that motorcycle in that paint scheme in North America. They had that opportunity in the early 1990's with the ZR1100 ( and that Z1 paint scheme was released in Japan-only models). I think that Kawasaki has the North American market pegged as a sport-bike/V-twin market only.

Now that has me checking my account balance! It does say it's a computer generated drawing based on insider information. If Kawasaki didn't plan to use the Jaffa paint scheme, hopefully seeing this drawing will make them reconsider. I'm actually glad to hear it won't be supercharged. A friend of mine bought 2 of the new supercharged H2's. One was to ride and the other one is being kept as a "0" miles investment. He sold the rider after 2 months. Besides getting a ridiculous offer he couldn't refuse, he said the bike was miserable to ride on the street. The power was just too much. This is coming from a guy who races a built to the hilt sub-10 second 2-stroke 750 triple drag bike.

Looks cool as hell! If its anything like the Ninja H2 supercharged? Hang on!
This is an old video of Ricky Gadson (drag race legend new guy).
Doctoring up this H2 to go 8.20's in the 1/4 mile!
