    Clearly they couldn't let the BMW win because everyone knows the Aprilia is far superior on track if the BM had won people would have blatantly noticed the back hander BMW are always giving out lol

    But the kawasaki so low? clearly the super stock boys dont know what there are talking about :p

    All the Bikes above the ZX10 all run far superior suspension.

    Waz some Ohlins etc on a Ten then the tables soon turn. :cool:

    The ZX10 was basic, no Oehlins Mechatronics etc. and they had the Honda SP, not the basic.
    So, the test was not really fair for the Kawa and for me this test doesn't mean anything.
    The Kawa is a top bike and I really liked it after I had a test ride.

    Tests are just some information to count in, but it does not replace a test ride.
    I bet there will be an update for the Kawa in 2016 anyway.

    Exactly, but as a road bike that's what it comes with. Comparing pbm kawasaki and a Wsb kawa to the road bike is just ludicrous to be honest.

    The zx10r with a ohlins mechatronic rear shock went round Mallory in 53.94 with Rutted riding it. The only bike to best it was the 1299 with a fractionally better lap time of 53.80 again with Rutted riding. Both the 2015 sthou and r1 were slower than the zx10r with the ohlins rear shock. Same track and same rider so reasonably good comparison. The zx10r is known to have a poor rear shock when used on track so know surprises tbh.
