Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:05, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ''this edit repeats for the third time unsourced claims that contradict numerous reliable sources. Please stop.

Sources must be reliable - see WP:RS. This means that a ZX12 fansite is not suitable for use as a reference. Worth noting that you should never link to copyright infringing material (e.g. the Silver Book copy on the fan site) - see WP:ELNEVER. --Biker Biker (talk) 23:05, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
