    just when I thought I wasn't going to buy another sportsbike (except
    maybe a 998) I see kawasaki have the '09 ZX-10R on 0% finance. And the
    white colour scheme is appalling enough to appeal to me.

    On the other hand - *dear god* - what the **** is with that exhaust?

    Mmmm. I quite like the Pearl Stardust White too. Tho I think I
    prefer the Ebony.
    <shrug> It's better than the underseat thing they did.

    Black is the new Boring.
    I don't mind the location, but why do Kwak do those weird pseudo
    triangular section pipes?

    forgetting that for a moment, they're claiming 188PS, which is, well,
    probably enough to take your mind of a funny shaped exhaust.

    1198S comes in white, but only the 1098 and 1098S are on 0% atm.

    It's the official team colour for People Who Are Trying Too Hard.

    The exhaust can always be swopped for something a bit more appealing to
    the eye. The rest of the bike is gorgeous.

    It's not as if people keep the standard silencer on many bikes nowadays.

    Now I know why you suggested I got a black CB13, then.

    Ducati don't exactly make it easy to find out how much their bikes
    cost. In any case, although I do intend to own a Ducati at some point,
    I doubt I'll buy a new one.

    Unlike H-D at the Brussels motor show this week. The only info on
    display was the price and the monthly payments.

    Not that I was looking, of course.

    What if I left the price tag on it, to save you the trouble of asking?
