*The ZX-12R will still come in the striking black and gold of this year’s model, but it will also be available in the traditional Kawasaki green or striking silver. The current blue and metallic green options will be deleted. Silver swingarms are out – a natty black to match the monocoque frame is in.

Says MCN.... BUT, what 'current metallic green' ???
I never saw a 2002 in metallic green, you?

I'm extremely happy with my Candy Thunder Blue which I'm sure is the fastest color, not even the traditional kawa green can touch that <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)">

ZX-12R, the Power & the Glory!

I had the same thought when I read the article. There never was a green for 2002, so how could it be gone? Given that glaring mistake, how reliable is the rest of the report. Probably okay, but I'll wait until your trip report from the Dealer's Show!

The '00,'01 green and red colors are gone I have been told, due to fact the painting process was to costly. They painted some parts 3 times to get it right before the paint could pass QC.

MCN is a Euro site(England) they get different colors than US bikes a lot of the time. I would love to see the 12 in traditional non metalic Kawi green.
