Hmm good looking, but any mechanical differences to the 42107 Ducati? I don't see em...

Yeah I was about to say that it looks too much like a 42107 reskin.

[Jockos]

I have a feeling this windshield piece is hard platic like in the 42130 BMW. So that's a good move.

I think I find 1x5 alternative beam? Or is that is 3x5 alter beam? On underside of chain.

Probably this.

That's sad. 

[JunkstyleGio]

Nothing new.

I really don't need it.

But I will buy it anyways, just to keep the bikes series complete..

[amorti]

Could be the first bike with a good looking fuel tank. How's the top been done?

[vascolp]

It seems  +  

[JunkstyleGio]

Maybe something like this?

 

plus

[LvdH]

Isn’t that “new panel” just this part?

True that!

Well, it may be using the Yamaha gearbox parts, which would be a mild mechanical upgrade

[Zerobricks]

I doubt there are any Yamaha shifting parts due to limited space, but a 24 tooth clutch gear would be nice. Since the real Kawasaki Ninja uses an inline 4, I'm pretty confident this model uses a brick-build inline 4. At least that would explain why it's so hidden.

You can find some orange thing on very front of rear wheel on front image of box art. I think this set use normal orange selector but considering chassis is narrow looking maybe Yamaha's 2L drive ring used on there.

[Jockos]

If it does include the all the Yamaha's gearbox parts, what other novelty would be in the next bikes regardless of the look and size? Because as I see, we ticked every possible technical aspect.

True, and it does look like a logical location to put a wave selector, right on the axle with that knob wheel stepper. Of course, the Yamaha system does include the orange fork piece, so it is still possible that that's it showing up there, but the standard one does look likely.

At least the 2L driving ring and 24T clutch gear could easily show up!

Dirt bike or chopper?

We had both ;) True, without gearbox, but what I mean is what new technical aspect hasn't been done yet?

Working breake? Or is there a bike which has unique suspension system like R 1200GS adventure?

[1gor]

It seems that it has gearbox, or black knob wheel at the right side of bike is for decoration...

Yes, brake is something that could be done, maybe in 1:5 scale.

How about 4 speed gearbox in small motorbikes

[icm]

This motorcycle is a pretty model, but does it have any features that the 42107 Ducati doesn't besides a kickstand? It looks like it has only a single spring for rear suspension like the Ducati. Like the Ducati, it has a working 2-speed gearbox, but does it use the same wave shifter part for that gearbox, or does it use a new element for that?
