When petrolhead said “not the simplest, cheapest or lightest way to make 50-60 hp” my thoughts immediately went to “maybe they are making more.”

Kawasaki didn’t develop the world’s smallest supercharger just for the H2, and it’s something they have that the competition still doesn’t have. What if they do something insane and make a supercharged ZX4R to replace the ZX6R? Supposedly they are dropping the ZX-6R in a lot of places and this would really fill that hole.
Don't mind me. I'm limited in my thinking when it comes to motor vehicles. Motorcycle at it's best is designed to a certain design targets. Cost, simplicity, weight, target horsepower.
4 cyl 400cc is not the optimal configuration for any power figure. You can easily make a 100 hp with 2 cylinders and meet emissions.
