I don't know if any of you have seen the pics on the internet but let me say, WOW! What a beautiful machine. 660cc, 9000 rmp redline, reverse, 398lbs dry weight my god Kawasaki had better step up to the plate. Saw the pics on the extremeatv.com page. Check them out and then we need to start pestering Kawasaki to find out what the hell is going on!

 

I agree Kawasaki needs to start churning out some new products. A new sport machine would be a great start then a new line of sport utility machines. The company is already behind the times! If they wait any longer they will never be able to catch up, let alone lead the pack.

 

The best sign for all of us the bleed Kawie green was the resurrection of the factory's Team Green ATV team. The only reason to have a factory race team is to sell production machines. Hopefully Kawasaki is learning their lessons well from the GNCC team and taking a hard look at the other manufacturers' entries into the once again flowering high-performance market. Its amazing there haven't been more leaks yet though.

 

I smell what your all stepping in! Kawasaki needs to do something quick! Sorry but I don't consider the Mojave or Lakota a "race" machine, Kawasaki..

Give us a big bore bike!!!

Hell, give rebirth to the Tecate! Call it the Tecate 600 or something!

What do you guys think?

 

Yep, Kawi needs to get a new sport machine. Also , with the Honda Rubicon coming out in the next month or so, this leaves Kawi as the only manufacturer without a 500cc utility quad.

New products = more sales. You can't just change the stickers or color to keep sales up!

 

All Kawie has to do is bump up the displacement on their KLX300 motor and put it in a quad chassis. The KLX650 motor would be an excellent choice also.

 

No more utility quads! To many! Kawasaki needs to make the Kx-250 and show the other companies that they can make a high preformance machine!! or a 400 would be nice but until then I want a KX250!!!!

 

I talk to Liberty Cycle in Liberty MO. today and they said they won't get to see the new models until the dealers meetings in September.

 

When Kawasaki releases thier new machine, you know that it will be built with concepts and lessons learned and testes on the GNCC circuit with some of the best riders in the world(Ballance, Yokley). I personally believe that is the best way to go about it. You KNOW it has been raced for 2 years, Not tested, not developed, raced. If they ignore this and put out something lame then screw 'em, I'll build my own.
