All right then, how many of you like to go really, really fast all day long, and then, when you get where you're going, make a few passes at the local drag strip?

The Z750S was specially engineered for American tastes after much market research - it's clear Kawasaki wants to cash in on the middleweight do-it-all "standard" market.

Drawing on nearly twenty years of EX/Ninja 250 and 500 domination of the "cheap, light and fast" philosophy, Team Green has added yet another member to the ever-growing family of motorcycle assassins known as the Ninja.

So when I was invited to the press intro for the new 1600 Nomad, I was interested to see how Kawasaki might have improved their product in this important market segment.

Not content with dominating the horsepower wars, Kawasaki has decided to refine the 6R's street manners, in an effort to challenge the more comfortable Yamaha R6 for top Supersport "Streetbike" honors.
