NINJA ZX-10R KRT

$34,895

Carrying Kawasaki riders to six World Superbike titles, the Ninja ZX-10R has demonstrated its championship-winning performance while allowing a wide range of riders to experience the thrill of exploring their limits on the circuit.

To ensure its continued competitiveness, a host of changes to engine and chassis build on this proven performance; next-generation Ninja styling offers significantly improved aerodynamics; and new features like Electronic Cruise Control and a TFT instrument panel with smartphone connectivity enhance street-riding enjoyment.

High-level base model features an engine and chassis with a high level of circuit potential, all-new aerodynamic styling complete with integrated winglets, and high-grade suspension and brake components.

FEATURES

Bosch IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit)

IMU enables inertia along 6 DOF (degrees of freedom) to be monitored. Acceleration along longitudinal, transverse and vertical axes, plus roll rate and pitch rate are measured. The yaw rate is calculated by the ECU using Kawasaki original software.

INCREASED COOLING PERFORMANCE

Based on feedback from Kawasaki’s WSB race machine, the new air-cooled oil cooler is a design often seen on highperformance models. Rather than routing coolant from the radiator to the oil cooler and back to the engine, the new oil cooler is aircooled and has an independent circuit. Oil is routed from the left lower crankcase to the oil cooler, where it is cooled, then returned on the right side. The increased cooling performance contributes to engine performance at all rpm.

ADVANCED SHOWA BFF FORK

Showa’s advanced ø43 mm BFF offers state-of-the-art WSB racing technology on a massproduction model. The highspec fork offers numerous benefits:
– increased ride comfort
– increased braking stability
– increased front-end feel
– independently adjustable
compression and rebound
damping

POWERFUL, BALANCED ENGINE

The Ninja ZX-10R’s engine balances stunning power with manageability. Positioning peak torque high up in the rpm range makes it easier for riders to get back on the gas, while a strong low-mid range further contributes to acceleration coming out of corners. Fingerfollower valve actuation and other features based on feedback from Kawasaki’s WSB factory team contribute to a peak power of 203 PS†, which can easily be augmented care of a full race exhaust. Updates for 2021 offer increased cooling performance and emissions that meet Euro5 requirements while maintaining the engine’s performance and easy-to-use character.

STYLED FOR AERODYNAMICS

Aerodynamic upper cowl contributes to simple racebike looks, while maintaining a distinct Ninja identity. Together with the taller windshield, it offers significantly reduced drag.

HIGH PERFORMANCE BREMBO BRAKE SYSTEM

A pair of massive ø330 mm Brembo semi-floating discs with a thickness of t5.0 mm deliver superb braking force. The stainless steel rotors offer high rigidity and contribute to excellent brake feel.
