Hey ya'll, watch this?

Chris, are you talking about the reported noisy fifth gear and/or complaints of "notchy" shifting? Supposedly the fifth gear whine is "Normal" per Kawasaki. As to the notchiness, I suspect clearances were tightened up as the components made a little beefier to handle the extra power of the Zed. No recalls or dealer…

Yes. I just found out this week that Boeings, except for those delivered to Germany, are equipped with remote over ride for control of the operational controls. Interesting is it not that both the shot down and the missing MH 370 are both Boeings?

My point is that if you know where something is, then it really is not missing is it?

My money is on something in the 6-750cc range. But how cool would it be if Kawi went off the deep end and used their 1400cc monster? Can you say, world's first eight second factory ride? The current 1400 Ninja does it in the nines and is generally regarded as the fastest accelerating production bike in the world.

Where do you "Hide" a jetliner? It's not like you can put one under your shirt, unless you are Dolly Parton. This sounds suspiciously like disinformation to me.

Yes, and I'll just bet that since 9-11 commercial aircraft are tracked all over the globe.

Join the fun, life is too short to look back and say "What might have been."

To be honest this is not really an entry level bike, although lots of people think 700cc is "Small" today. It's really not. Whether you want to pay the tariff for the anime look is a matter of personal preference. Honda's are reliable, last a long time and are usually not hard to maintain. Darn good bikes.

It was beautiful and flew well, even though it was underpowered. The intention was to use a turboprop for production versions, although that never happened. The plan was to create "Ocean liners for the sky" and it was opulent, but horribly uneconomical to a nation still reeling from war.

Or breath the fumes

The title is wrong, this thing is tractible and Helmut survived. The power is extreme, but definitely controllable.

Most welcome. The mists of time have caused a lot of historical machinery to be forgotten. Those of us who appreciate cool stuff can share on the internet. Take care.

You want beautiful? Would you also like that very fast?

Lot of truth to that. Keep the rubber side down bro.

That's just sociopathic

But can you bet five dead for $5?

Hope you have your flame proof riding suit on!!

Biker bump tag?

LOL, I'll go $5 for 5.
