gotta say full marks to Kawasaki in confessin'.
No doubt there's a bit of hari kari being contemplated somewhere.
Now, if they had a problem with the oil cooler that was liable to spill it's guts onto the back wheel, thereby giving rise to a very serious sequence of events probably leading to major accident - would they have taken the same major "DO NOT RIDE" steps?

There'll be a few pinkies flying around KHI no doubt!

Oh well, taking JS out one bike at a time, sounds good to me!

Cheers!

Apparently there's a shortage of front wheels too, as it's a brand new light-weight design that they've now got to sort!

Doesn't look like anyone is going to be riding their ZX10R for a few months as yet!!
