If you're going to post a picture of a ZX12R, at least make it a pic of a real ZX12R, and not a pic of a cheap Chinese plastic model of a ZX12R.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and in my eyes the ZX12R is the best looking bike Kawasaki ever made. That's convenient, since the ZX12R is the cheapest way I've found to break 200 mph, and that's my goal. I know a stock 12 won't do it, but I don't own any stock bikes :)

I agree, those ZX12R's are badass looking. Kawasaki messed up the styling when they went to the 14. But if someone gave me a 14 I would love it just the same. Or really most any non-cruiser bike.

Thing is, these bikes are becoming so generic they are hard to tell apart. The ZX12R is not bad though. I'm starting to see large displacement scooters that look like sport bikes. Coming at you its a bit hard to tell. .

Those 650 Burgman's haul balls. There's a guy I come across regularly on my commute. Maybe he's flogging the crap out of it but he flys past cars like any other bike.

The new bikes have no "soul" :sick:

Don't be ridiculous! It's only a flesh wound!

z, not zx we are talking about the "naked bike" this is like saying kitten tooth vs kraz1 they are both weilding weapons and taking numbers but nobody has yet to see them up against each other. maybe a kz750 vs a kz1000 would be a good show kz750 e1 from 1980 has a slightly faster 1/4 mile time than the kz1000 mk2 go figure nobody thought the sleeper was littler.

Nitrous ZX12R meets GPz750 turbo - grudge match showdown.



This would have been a better race if the old man had remembered to switch the nitrous on. As it was, the pressure was enough! :lol:

Lorc. is that you on the 750 Turbo and your Dad on the 12?

Is your Dad still racing? And what is he, 78 or so now?
