Well a few days ago the disappointment which the Z-ev and the Ninja ev which were totally disappointing
But thankfully Kawasaki Today announced the Hybrid

It's a 450cc parallel twin paired with a 48v 9kw battery pushing mind-blowing 68 hp, which is just 10hp less than the base variant of zx4r and more than the ninja 650, and Kawasaki claims the quick acceleration of a 1000cc, all that with the fuel efficiency of a 250cc, that is mind-blowing if true
the only thing is the river logo, which I thought was only limited to high performance machine, but if Kawasaki thinks it's good enough to have that, I hope it's actually that good enough to have it, and I think the reason they went with a 450 is cuz of a little Chinese company called cfmoto who's 450ss has been painfully often being compared with the ninja 400 in the north American market for beginners
the only catch is the price which hasn't been announced yet, which I really hope they don't overdo it
