Has anyone seen a proper test of the new 2017 bike,
other than the magazine first ride reports going around,
based on rider perception only?
Would love to see if this is the new King,
or not, based on actual numbers tested.
Yep. Went to Phillip island to see lauch also got some footage of first race over there finished 4 but overall very quick. Also will be looking at its practice in several weeks but Coleman's team here in AucklandHas anyone seen a proper test of the new 2017 bike, other than the magazine first ride reports going around, based on rider perception only?

I think MCN is doing a group comparison right now. Might look there.

But the H2 has a power adder...
My thought would be all 1000cc naturally aspirated bikes are the only ones that qualify as the competition, otherwise where would you draw the line? The ZX14 has 1441cc's from the factory as the Busa has 1340. So factory installed as the sole factor would allow all bikes into the same class, wouldn't it?And? It's fitted with it from the factory, which IMO would qualify.
If the H2 counts then why can't the run them in moto gp?
My response was in reply to the 1/4 mile comment; nothing more. I think the MotoGP rules have always been a little bass ackwards lol.
I would think that the zx10 would be Kawasakis competition for the gsxr1000.
