I was pretty shocked to see the ZX-4RR is coming to the USA. It will be a market failure that disappears in a few years so buy one now if you want one.
The problem is that the 400cc bike is $9,699 while the 636cc ZX-6R starts at $10,699 and the full out ZX-6R KRT ABS is only $11,799. Most buyer will take the extra CC's and HP for $1,000 to $2,100 more.
However, the ZX-4RR would make a fantastic track day tool. Plenty of HP for the application and you can actually use those 16,000 RPM. This bike will likely hit 65 mph in first gear and topping out 2nd or 3rd gear will be go-to-jail speeds. (The 636 has 1,000 less RPM and hits 120 mph in 3rd)
