i recon that would sell quite well. there isnt really anything between a 125 and 600 sports bike (bar the 250 ninja out soon) in the way of new bikes. could be a gap im the market... TAKE THE HINT KAWASAKI!!!

Apparently there arent any plans in the pipeline to remake the ZXR400

FI on a ZXR has been done :smt002 . If you're an engineer, wouldn't cost tooo much either, but ride in ride out would be rather more expensive :smt012

personaly i think if they put the RSV450 into production and it takes off then all the other's will follow suit were there own 400's

Has anyone seen the RSV550's that people are building? basicly a RS250 frame with a SXV550 engine init, hoppfully aprilia will take the hint and make the bike that i've been waiting for the last 5 years

RSV550 :smt007

That bike sounds awesome and looks stunning. Amazing what a high tail does to the overall look. Wish he's start selling them!
Thanks for putting the article up too. I'll grab a copy of that later...

would there be any benefit to a company making a 400? it would be almost as fast as a 600 etc similar to ride just wouldnt make much sence IMO.
