Kevin Kernohan from BK Design Speedpaint did one for me and does all the CSBK guys. He's pricey but well and truly worth it: @bkdspeedpaint on instagram.

Your own screenshot proves that the 400 and 650 are not currently given the R, and your other references show that they haven't for over a decade. Your claim that Kawasaki waters down the R is straight-up false (in 2023). (We'll disagree on the ZX-14R - which I would say gets the R designation...

The only models with an R are literallly the race bikes. Zx-10R, H2R, ZX-6R, ZX-4R and RR. There are no other Rs. You're flat-out wrong.

What the hell are you on about? Kawasaki doesn't put an R on the 650, nor the Ninja 400. You're just making stuff up.

vaporware, vaporware, takes your money and disappear....

FYI - this isn't an airbox mod, it's a throttle body mod. The restrictor plate goes in after the throttle body to restrict the overall amount of both air and fuel into the engine.

To add more perspective ... SOAR, which has had plenty of political rumblings and goings on with CSBK (or at least the track has) still manages to not only put on one of the most successful national rounds, but a thriving regional race series with bumper fields, purely by focusing on the stuff...

One of those parties has managed to get along with plenty of people who REALLY don't like them long enough and well enough to keep road racing alive in Canada for decades. The other party has managed to lose a car race series, most of the competitors in what used to be the second-biggest...

It really is a shame. We all had such high hopes when they bought it out. It is immensely sad, and frankly ruined the opportunity Covid gave us to reinvigorate the sport in a serious way.

Yes, and it led to a very stern talking to, from Linda, for me.

The grandstand has been updated I believe, however there is PLENTY of grass viewing that still shows the whole track all over the place there. Basically it's the best track we go to for spectators bar the now unavailable Shannonville.

I think it's likely we'll see him back on a bike before the year is out. Jordan is one of the most resilient and tough guys out there.

I am retired. The bike has returned to where it belongs.

Just another country club. Will not be for racing.

Reluctant to jinx myself, but I put the detent spring in my bike before I ran it in anger and it was enough to give me clean and reliable shifts for the entire season. Undercutting would be the next step up, but I don't think I need to do it at this point.

I disagree with the need for suspension first, I ran 1.5 seasons on stock stuff, then half a season on good, then a season on stock, then back to a season on good. It was a mission, but I was able to run okay. You learn a lot if you do some time on stock suspension before you move over to the...

The internet says they're going all-electric. The actual announcement from Kawasaki says that there will be electrified variants of all major model line-ups by 2035. That's not even remotely the same thing. Not a single post on those links has an actual original quote from Kawasaki.

No. They didn't.
