Pros and Cons in comparison

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

Kawasaki Z1000 2009

Kawasaki Z1000 2009

Kawasaki did well to rethink and rebuild the Z1000 from the ground up. It was given a dark soul whose roots lie in the (un)good old days, but it seems more genuine and cohesive thanks to its independent development. Kawa did justice to itself and the wishes of its customers to a high degree. All in all, a courageous product for courageous riders.

Relatively much power

powerful appearance

much comfort

optimal chassis

acceptable price.

Uncontrollable instrument unit

partial manual force present.
