The Ninja ZX-10R is built for those who rise to a challenge, a true champion Supersport machine.
From carrying Kawasaki riders to 7 WorldSBK Championship titles to helping performance enthusiasts explore their limits on the track, the Ninja ZX-10R now reaches new heights.
With new aerodynamic winglets and its new sharp, aggressive design, this is the next-generation Ninja.
Push your limits aboard the new Ninja ZX-10R equipped with a potent 998cc 4-cylinder engine, a fine-tuned chassis and suspension, a state-of-the-art electronics package plus a whole lot more.
Styled for Aerodynamics
A prime example of form following function, the Ninja ZX-10R’s latest bodywork was developed with aerodynamic performance as a top priority. The redesigned front cowl features large winglets that significantly increase downforce at high speeds. Combined with updated chassis geometry, the new aerodynamic package enhances high-speed control, cornering performance, and overall circuit potential.
Building on WorldSBK-Proven Performance
With an engine and chassis designed for chasing lap times on the track, the Ninja ZX-10R offers a high level of circuit riding potential. To ensure it continues its race-winning ways, Kawasaki engineers fine-tuned the chassis geometry to fully capitalise on the enhanced aerodynamics.
Kawasaki’s Advanced Electronics
Powered by Kawasaki’s proprietary dynamic modelling program and enhanced with input from a Bosch IMU, the Ninja ZX-10R’s cutting-edge electronics enhance the fun of piloting a high-performance supersport machine. Features like integrated Riding Modes, Electronic Cruise Control, and TFT instrumentation with turn-by-turn navigation capability add convenience and entertainment value, increasing street-riding enjoyment.
High-Performance Brembo Brake System
Dual high-spec Brembo M50 monobloc calipers gripping large Ø 330 mm discs and a specially prepared radial-pump master cylinder deliver next-level braking performance.
Light-Handling Chassis
Adding to the Ninja ZX-10R’s highly acclaimed control, cornering performance, and light handling, updates to the chassis geometry—tuned to match the effect of the new winglets—contribute to improved rear-wheel traction and enhanced secondary cornering force, which facilitates steering the bike from the rear when track riding.
High-Grade Suspension
Circuit-focused settings for the WorldSBK-developed BFF (Balance Free Front Fork) and BFRC lite (Balance Free Rear Cushion) shock facilitate front-rear weight transfer and contribute to light handling.
Enhanced Street-Riding Experience
For riders who enjoy street riding, features like integrated Riding Modes, Electronic Cruise Control, smartphone connectivity, and full-colour TFT instrumentation with a gimbal-style lean angle display and turn-by-turn navigation* offer even greater satisfaction.
*Navigation functions will be available only to users who have a licence. **Feature availability varies by market.
Aerodynamic Riding Position
Handlebar and footpeg positions contribute to an aggressive, circuit-focused riding position that also helps riders minimise drag when tucked behind the windshield going down the straight.
Powerful 998 cm3 Liquid-Cooled, 4-Stroke In-Line Four
The Ninja ZX-10R’s engine balances stunning power with manageability, offering linear power delivery right to its heady peak power. For maximum track-riding efficiency, great care was taken to ensure ideal engine manageability during all parts of the corner: getting off the throttle in corner entry, getting back on the throttle mid-corner, opening the throttle on corner exit. The new engine maintains the high performance of its predecessor while offering improved emissions.
Next-Generation Ninja Styling
Compact projector/reflector hybrid headlights, repositioned Ram Air intake and prominent new winglets give the Ninja ZX-10R its new “face,” enhancing the strong Ninja family image. All-new sharp, aggressive bodywork creates a dynamic image that completes the next-generation Ninja styling.
Large Winglets
The winglets extending to either side not only highlight the machine’s advanced aerodynamic performance, but also effectively generate downforce that increases front-end feel for greater cornering confidence.
