KAWASAKI MOTORCYCLES UK SPECIFICATIONS kAWASAKI zx10r Ninja 2007

The Kawasaki ZX10R Ninja is available in green or black. This model got a whole new make over for 2006/07. New and more aerodynamic bodywork, a series of engine modifications that have not only unleashed more power but have given it a more linear power delivery. The RAM air efficiency that the Kawasaki ZX10R is already known for is further improved with the ram air intake duct enlarged and twin catalysed cans to efficiently dispose of the exhaust gases. The Kawasaki ZX10R was already a class leader with in excess of 1000 horsepower per tonne, for 2006 / 2007, the engine has been moved further forward in the frame to give more centralised mass and aid high speed stability. As with the 2005 model, the new Kawasaki ZX10R comes standard with a thatcham approved immobiliser. In addition to this we will now see a factory fitted Ohlins adjustable steering damper, and braking efficiency improved by the utilisation of a radial master cylinder to compliment the already excellent radial calipers. Trick bits? or simply sensible engineering? The Kawasaki ZX10R has a speedo assembly that projects its image thus giving the illusion that the digits are a long way away. The reasoning behind this is to give the rider a faster re-focus time when glancing from road to clocks and back again. It really works. The world wide write ups of the Kawasaki ZX10R have labelled it as an animal thanks to its blisteringly powerful engine. DO NOT be misled, in town and around the country twisties it is an absolute joy to ride, a pussycat in fact, with power delivery entirely relative to throttle openings. Pinning the throttle to the stop however does release the beast in this machine - The latest model Kawasaki ZX10R with its new modifications is better still - it is awesome!! The Kawasaki ZX10R is a bike that in standard trim fits right in on track and this is exactly what Kawasaki had in mind, however the huge torque and midrange power that allows this bike to pull 6th gear from 3000rpm gives you the ingredients for a relaxed ride on the road. Additional features on the Kawasaki ZX10R are the slipper clutch that is fitted as standard which simply stops rear end chatter at high rev down changes, and gives the most predictable and consistent engine braking on downchanges regardless where these are made within the rev range.
