Kawasaki USA flew us down to Irvine to ride the 10R! Amazing bike! Too tired to write about it right now, or repost anything... been travelling for hours... here's a link to the thread we started... I'll post lots of pix and info when I am awake and concious!
Thanks for keeping us informed.
I was offered a test ride once one of the local shops gets their edition on the floor. I'm looking forward to it. I might just pen a wee testimonial myself.
Bike is flawless... we rode production versions (different from the Daytona bikes the journo's got).. gearbox was perfect... as was pretty much everything else... very very hard to find fault with this bike... you'd be nit picking if you tried.

Good to hear, after reading about the initial problems with the transmission on the pre-production models. :thumbup
Did you find the short wheelbase and lack of steering damper to be of any problem on non-track surfaces?
I'm lookin' forward to reading your impressions on this one. Especially since I'm too much of a wuss and an OLD wuss at that to actually buy one. At least I can live vicariously through folks like you...
And thanks for sharing via this and the other thread.
no prob.. sorry I havent typed it all out... it's going to take some time... I have to work tomorrow too.. that'll throw a wrench in my plans...
