Wheel bearing... wow. Hope they fix it before it gets out on the street. Might even delay the local release date if true.

 

 

Hmmm... OK then. At least I won't be too far behind the first owners. Countdown....

[Tashi]

Initially from Southern, I heard it' a small recall on the light bulb, after that, another dealer said bigger problem has surfaced, but didn't elaborate.

[StingRhea]

at least got recall~ better den got prob no recall~

[Ken]

[Tashi]

1. Kawasaki ZX-10R  698

The road test u have posted (which does not include the R1) is back dated. In the recent group test conducted by MCN (inclusive of R1), R1 was the fav among the testers on the road and on the track. It even scored a perfect 10/10.

go check out the issues of MCN from march 3rd onwards and u'll see wat i mean.

This test, Honda and Kawa seems to score higher than the Yammie. I guess it all depends on who is reviewing the bike.

A well hidden 3 min nice movie.

good to know u understand this concept.

[Tashi]

OTR without insirance is around 22k (parallel). Boon Siew bike should be around 23k. The ones that come to S'pore will not be 1st batch.

 

Recall is available for parallel as well. But warranty is not.

[Tashi]

Bikes should be in this weekend. Some lucky people should be able to see one tomorrow.

[Ken]

u mean the CBR1000RR is already OTR?

Nope. Still have to go to LTA for testing. Will take 2 to 3 weeks. If it's ok, should see it OTR after that.

 

Just arrived 2 hrs ago. 5 came, only 1 red which is already sold.

[Tashi]

Bike looks better than pictures.

[Tashi]

I had a chance to meet the guy who bought the bike. Saw the manual as well.

 

It seems the engine manufacturing process has improved.

 

Running-in on the RR4 (as printed on the box) is only 500km, whereas on the 954, it's 1000km.

 

Anybody knows the figures for the R1, K4 and 10R?

[Tashi]

Mail man has arrived.

[Tashi]

What's more exciting than unboxing that 17 inch PowerBook from Apple?

[Tashi]

When I saw it at this angle, I could barely contain my "Wow!!!"

 

(Some1 is gonna change it to "Woopa" again?)

[Tashi]

RCV genes are clearly evident here.

[Tashi]

A big thanks to Mah for letting me sneak in for these shots.

[Ken]

where's the wing?

 

if this is the euro colours,..... i think R1 bah....
