Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2017

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!

Yamaha's high-tech rocket is still a technological leader in 2016. Radical, polarising and fascinating, it sets powerful lap times. It is closer to the race bikes than the other 1000s. In the meantime, no one grumbles about the front. Without the "M", it is the best choice for those who don't need Öhlins anyway, or the best choice for those who are planning a racetrack conversion anyway and like to install "normal" Öhlins hardware without electric stuff.
