Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2016

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2016

The ZX-10R Ninja has a certain majesty, at the first rollout it seems very stable, you have to force it into the radius a little. After a few laps, however, this effect is transformed into an incredible precision that allows a pinpoint line. The engine has now really become noticeably stronger and makes the Kawa an enormously good overall package that can please not only die-hard Kawasaki fans. The traction control on the Kawa is particularly positive and regulates very sensitively. You can even adjust the engine brake - so it certainly doesn't lack for electronic features. The ZX-10R is the only superbike that is already Euro4-compliant in 2016!

great chassis geometry

high-quality chassis components

very good brakes

lots of electronics on board

Cockpit not quite optimal readable

Ducati 1199 Panigale S 2012

Panigale buyers will certainly have a lot of fun with the Ducati, but at the beginning of the season a lot of work has to be put into a functioning setup. On the track, we are sure that with enough know-how in the backpack, the Panigale will be able to show its full potential and the lap times will be pushed to a new level.

Plenty of power

quality traction point

great ABS

electronically adjustable suspension

light weight

immaculate brakes.

Very high purchase price.
