So it seems that Kawasaki could mix it with their poor Yamaha cousins after all , I guess Mr Kawasaki doesn't have to start flipping burgers just yet. Top money earning company in japan by the way is Toyota.Sandra O is YUMMY

Kawasaki Heavy Industries are an enormous company building helicopters and jets, ships and submarines and trains (including the bullet-train) amongst other things. However, their motorcycle division is the smallest of the big four. That orders Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki then poor lil team green. So they clearly have plenty of financial muscle but given that motorcycles are the smallest area, they would limit what they would spend through it. Their bikes should be aerodynamic though, seeing as they have an aerospace division!

LAME ! Monster doesn't look like an official sponsor at all with that dinky little logo. They could have done something really cool with the monster logo but just sticking a tiny sticker on the fairing is cheap!

Probably the hole spent great space on the fairing, the space left is only sufficient for small monster

This is not so important. This stage is only not to make a mistake and not to destroy the tyres. We will see tomorrow on proper stages.
