shape is similar to those in the Ninja motorcycle line for
better flow and more power. Large intake port for increased
power. Provides maximum valve area for optimum intake and
exhaust flow.
Hydraulic Valve Lash Adjusters

Precise fuel metering for great fuel mileage, easystarting,
excellent response, and outstanding power. Airflow controlled by
two 40mm throttle bodies for increased performance.
Liquid Cooling
Tall radiator with shroud provides optimum cooling.
Straight-bladed auxiliary fan runs quiet and helps keep things
cool in traffic. Maintains consistent engine temperatures for
long engine life and sustained power during hard use.
Dual Plug TCBI with Digital Advance Microprocessor
Controlled timing, never needs adjustment. Two spark plugs
in each combustion chamber cuts detonation for extra durability.
Hydraulic Clutch
Release Easy to operate with a light clutch pull. No
adjustments make it easy to maintain.
5-Speed Transmission.
Strong gears handle the high torque of the large engine. Close
ratios for sportier performance. Positive Neutral Finder Just
lift the pedal from first gear at a stop to find neutral easily,
every time. A Kawasaki exclusive.
Steering Lock
The steering lock is located on the lower triple clamp to make

Redesigned dampers
Reduce vibration.
Self-Cancelling Turn Signals
The turn signals turn off automatically after 8 seconds, and
after traveling 65m.
Radial Mounted Front Disc Brakes
Radial mounted 4-piston front brake calipers. Instead of
mounting the calipers with threaded tabs cast near the top of
the caliper , the radial design utilizes integrated mounting
points at both the top and bottom of the caliper , with the
mounting bolts inserted through the rear of the caliper instead
of the side/front. This makes the caliper more rigid, which
improves brake feel over a wider range of operation. A separate
brake pad is used for each piston. One large pad can deform with
the heat generated by hard riding, resulting in a loss of brake
feel at the lever . Individual pads provide increased cooling
efficiency and can absorb more heat without deforming so that
they maintain consistent brake feel.
Shaft Drive
Tapered roller pinion gear bearing for increased durability. A
reliable and quiet, low-maintenance system.
Multi-Plane Reflector Halogen Headlight
Brighter, whiter light for better visibility. Clear lens makes a
strong styling statement.
Wide 3-Spoke Wheels
Radial tires enhance performance.
43mm Inverted Cartridge Front Fork
Provide rigidity for performance and a sporty appearance. Big
25mm front axle for increased stability .
Air -Assisted Rear Suspension
Dual air shocks are adjustable to match load and road
conditions. Swingarm stiffness balance matches the engine
output. Rebound damping is 4-way adjustable to tailor fit the
ride.
Large Flangeless Fuel Tank
Good fuel economy with fuel injection and a 17 litre fuel tank
provides more kilomters of fun between refills.
Electric Speedometer
An electric speedometer reduces weight and eliminates the front
wheel drive unit and cable. The pick -up sensor mounts to the
front gear case. The speedometer features a digital odometer,
trip meter and clock
