KAWASAKI NINJA ZX 10R OVERVIEW
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a superbike available in India. It is powered by a 998cc BS6 engine with an Updated handlebar and footpeg positions contribute to a more aggressive, circuit-focused riding position. With both front and rear disc brakes, Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R comes up with an anti-locking braking system. This superbike weighs 207 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 17 liters.
The updated features include full-LED lighting, a Bluetooth-enabled 4.3-inch TFT color instrumentation with Kawasaki’s RIDEOLOGY THE APP. The electronic rider aids include electronic cruise control, traction control system, launch control, cornering management function, power modes, riding modes, engine brake control, intelligent ABS, and a bidirectional quick-shifter.
Mechanically, the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R uses a BS6-compliant 998cc, in-line four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 200bhp (210bhp with RAM Air) of maximum power at 13,200rpm and 114Nm of peak torque at 11,400rpm. The engine is linked to a six-speed transmission. Kawasaki says that the Ninja ZX-10R’s gear ratios were idealized for circuit riding.
The hardware on the 2021 model comprises an aluminum twin-spar frame, aluminum swingarm, Showa BFF (Balance Free Front Fork), and a horizontal back-link rear suspension with Showa BFRC (Balance Free Rear Cushion) lite. The braking tasks are handled by dual, semi-floating 330mm discs with dual radial-mount, Brembo M50 monobloc, opposed 4-piston calipers at the front, and a 220mm single rotor with a single-bore pin-slide caliper at the back.
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R will be offered in two colors – Lime Green and Flat Ebony Type 2. The liter-class supersport model rivals the likes of BMW S1000RR, Suzuki GSX-R1000R, and the Yamaha YZF-R1. The Ex-Showroom Price starts from Rs.15,14,000.
