Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2022

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2022

With the Ninja ZX-10R, the Greens offer a mature overall package that still looks as aggressive as you would expect from a Kawa superbike. The bike offers surprisingly good space for the rider and you feel comfortable in the saddle, but the high footrests make it clear that it is designed to perform on the race track. The revviness of the engine leaves nothing to be desired - except perhaps more discipline in the partial load range. To make the project a success, Kawasaki relies on high-quality ingredients: Showa suspension, Öhlins steering dampers, Brembo brakes with 330 discs and high-quality electronics. The Ninja ZX-10R even cuts a fine figure on the country road thanks to the good electronics and the superior engine - as long as you are able to suffer a little when it comes to the seating position.

Kawasaki Z900 2019

Fortunately, the new Kawasaki Z900 has lost none of its character through the use of electronics. It is and remains a playful mid-range naked bike, which at the same time masters the brisk pace on the country road magnificently. The riding pleasure and suitability for everyday use are high, the now installed riding aids offer a plus in safety. Your opponents will have a really hard time from now on.

Light and natural handling with high stability

Silky engine with full pull from mid revs

High chassis transparency, great feedback

Sitting position with feel-good factor

Fair price

TFT display mounted too low

Cumbersome menu operation

Rear view mirrors offer modest visibility
