Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2014

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2014

The ZX-10R was right in the middle during the test. It was not as fast and radical as the R1, Panigale, BMW and Aprilia. But it was also sportier than the Honda and Suzuki. While Honda and Suzuki would need completely new bikes to catch up with the top, Kawasaki would only have to give the ZX-10R a small update. But satisfied ZX-10R riders need not despair. The gap to the top is small enough to catch up with a few accessories. Because the ZX-10R has one decisive advantage. It has been on the market for a long time and there are enough parts available, including the necessary setup information. If you don't want to get involved in any experiments, take a Kawasaki and with a few simple steps you will also be at the top.
