Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2025

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2025

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.

BMW S 1000 RR 2014

BMW S 1000 RR 2015 buyers are closer than ever to a World Superbike Championship machine and will be able to ride it faster than ever before.

Powerful engine

superior electronics package

superb shift assistant

versatile for track and road use

despite high performance, a bike that is easy to ride.

stability is a bit tricky

packages subject to surcharges are put together with a focus on profit maximisation and not with a focus on customer benefits.
