Like last year {link}, Kawasaki is the sole official provider of motorcycles for the Tour de France 2006 bicycle race. They are supplying 26 KLV 1000 and ZRX 1200 motorcycles for official use (stewards, medical, drinks, judges, information, etc), and in the publicity caravan they are showing off all their motorcycles.
The fact that Kawasaki is the official supplier, does not mean that there are no other motorcycle manufacturers in the Tour. If you look closely at the TV coverage, you'll see many BMWs (mostly RTs, LTs and one or two GSs) and Yamahas.
