The original poster said that they are photoshops - he's only posted them to gauge response to the idea of a ZX8R  :icon_thumright:

I think Kawasaki San should release a ZX7/8r to compete and destroy the gixxer7!!

Remember seein somewhere a few years ago that if enough interest Kawasaki would bring out another 750 to compete with the gix!

yes it does seem that Suzuki have a nice little niche there with the GSXR750, Kawasaki did put a toe in with the extra 36cc on the 6 but I really can't see them going back to creating a 750 i don't think that the sales justify it and as there's no racing class what's the point  :dontknow:

In the good old days of 750's there were no 600's, the 600's took out the 750's. The 600 and 1000's are fine really I just can't see why there's felt a need for a 750 except for the fact that Suzuki have continued with it, no one else has  :tongue3:

20 years ago i was happy on a 900/1000 (although tyres were crap then).
10 years ago i was happy with the 750's
now i am more than happy with the 636  :icon_thumright:
i seem to be following a pattern of 100bhp - 130bhp where i am happy  :dontknow:

sometimes i wish i had a bit more umph in the 636 but very rarely. its nice to screw it between 12,000 and 16,000 rpm
oh i love to hear it whistle   [whistle]  [whistle]

i WOULD have an 800 if they made one, no second thought. higher reving than the 10 and more torque than the 6  :tongue3:

Well I bought a gixer 750 in '06 as I wanted something with a bit more torque than the current 600's, but didnt want to go the 1000 route. I wish I had more choice as the idea of a new zx7r with the best of the style from the zx6 and zx10 would be great.
