      y are they so shy of speaking loudly.
      its not a video interview.. its a paper interview, that is why its not like a "normal" interview. increase your speaker volume. i have seen the overdrive guy speak properly before on tv.
      Regardless, Life shall go on.

          A real good analysis & "vs" comparison between all 600cc segement biggies, i.e cbr 600 rr vs. yamaha yzf r6 vs. suzuki GSX - r 600 vs. kawasaki zx6r vs. triumph daytona 650.

          The 2010 kawasaki zx6r seems to be a winner in all aspects.

          check it out.

            I'll be first in line for the ZX6er. Nothing like a clean legal bike with aftersales backup right in my own city.
            Oh, they will launch some supersports or the other, they expressed that intention well in the video!

            And why blow 5 lakh+ when I have Aditya's ZX6R to ride? In return, I will do the tank pad/paint protection film/get parts from the US thing for him.

            I would love it if I get to buy a BMW 650 GS for 6 lakhs instead of a supersports.

              That is a very mature rider speaking...
              Sportbikes are fun, the truth being real pain in Indian traffic/road conditions...
              GS is a lovely machine to tour...

                Please update me, I thought sub 800ccs were not allowed to import. Is that rule out ? As bajaj even got ninja which is 250 ccs.
                Looks like the overdrive journo got lucky with an iphone and another camera phone in cornering the poor kawasaki guy..
                May the torque be with you..

                  A clear misinterpretation from the OP and interviewer . Thanks for the translation Bluevolt

                  @Fireblah : Bikes below 800 cc need homologation , which is a costly and tedious process. Any bike below 800cc can be imported but no company wants to take that headache.

                    And I thought Kawasaki would bring in its ZX-10R at the earliest now that other Japs are selling their 1000's.
                    ZX-6R? Homologation went outta the window? huh

                      according to the video... Schumi was the one who brought up the ZX6R.
                      the kawasaki guys just said it's one of the options they're considering.

                      he auto-disqualified the ZX10R... based on what?

                      and how is everybody forgetting the possibility of the ZX14???

                      so... does this piece of info mean that the Kawasaki 650R launch isn't going to happen???

                          Wish i was rich bro. But like I said, if i buy the ZX6R then it will be a used one and of course the 250 will have to go to some lucky dude. Cant afford to keep both.

                          Hey I'm not spending so much on a new machine. Will wait for someone to buy and sell it to me. That way it wont cost a bomb (hopefully). And while on that US trip do get me a mexicano latino like Catherine Zeta Jones or Anjie Jolie as my bike could do with a wash more often.

                            @ niks_devil666:
                            Dude i never confirmed zx6r launch, my thread subject clearly says "supersport launch confirmation and "probaply" a zx6r and that too due to the over confident statement thrown to the kwaks by the overdrive guy about the zx6r.

                            It is very cleary said in english by the Kawasaki translator guy, that zx6r
                            "might be one of the possibilities". So its either the zx6r or the zx10 r.
