Thanks for the very interesting post. There's some other interesting stuff there, like the article on the Suzuki X6 Hustler. I always wanted one, and I guess I still do. Faster than my brother's 1963 Yamaha 250 Big Bear Scrambler, and maybe even my 1968 Honda CL 350 (325cc) Scrambler.

sweet though.

Do we know if it's two separate twin barrels, because a single quad barrel would indeed be a biyatch...?

I suspect your right, two twins, fore and aft combined ??.....

I walk into a Kawasaki dealer here in Dallas and in 5 minutes I'm ready to leave.There is nothing that gets me even remotely excited with Kawasaki !!!!! I still hold on to the hope,but with each new year and each new model they release,Kawasaki gets further and further away from what I want to own !!!!!!

That's probably one reason guys like Carlos practically reinvent their own Kawasaki Triple, with fantastic machining and creativity. And of course, the rest of us modify ours to whatever capability we can muster, and enjoy them for what they are - cool, vintage, smoky, attention-getting bikes that need just a bit of periodic tinkering! :thumbup:

No real info here at the above link.

The front disc looks interesting, almost like a floater?
