| Introduction |
|
| From the earliest days of Japan Inc.’s legendary
chokehold on the open-class streetbike category, Kawasaki has been right there,
building motorcycles that have blown away the press, the public and nearly every
performance record of note. From the original Z-1 to the ZZR®1200, these
do-it-all motorcycles combined the power, handling, comfort and aesthetic appeal
that repeatedly dominated their categories. |

| Details & Features |
|
| Key Features |
• 1,043cc inline-four with
DFI® offers prodigious torque for effortless passing and backroads entertainment
• Lightweight aluminum frame
is narrow and tuned to transmit optimal feedback to the rider
• Fully adjustable inverted
fork has settings designed for sporty performance and ride quality
• Design of horizontal
back-link rear suspension contributes to mass centralization
• Radial-mounted front brake
calipers combine with the radial-pump front brake master cylinder to offer
superb control and feel
• Sleek, supersport styling
gives the Ninja® 1000 a distinctive look
• Relaxed, upright riding
position contributes to all-day comfort
• Larger fuel capacity
offers substantial range
• Windscreen is adjustable
to three positions, allowing for optimum wind and weather
protection | |
| DOHC, 16-valve, 1,043cc Engine |
• Liquid-cooled inline-four
offers true open-class power from idle to redline
• Easily accessible torque
offers instant thrust for maximum rider satisfaction
• Bore and stroke dimensions
of 77.0 x 56.0mm offer an ideal balance of peak power and low
• and mid-range flexibility
• 38mm Keihin throttle
bodies cram the air/fuel mixture directly into combustion chambers via downdraft
intakes for maximum power
• Oval sub-throttles help
keep the engine slim, and a slim midsection allows an ideal bike/rider interface
for maximum comfort and control
• Engine’s rev limiter comes
into play “softly,” providing usable overrev character because power doesn’t
drop off suddenly at high rpm
• The engine’s relatively
low crankshaft position allows a moderately long stroke without adding engine
height
• A secondary engine
balancer, driven off a gear on the sixth web of the crankshaft, eliminates
excess vibration and contributes to rider
comfort | |
| Cool Air System |
• Intake system routes cool
air to the airbox via ducts in the fairing, minimizing performance loss due to
heated intake air
• Duct positioning – close
to the rider – allows the intake howl to be heard and enjoyed
• Airbox resonator reduces
noise at low rpm and enhances intake sound at higher
revs | |
| Exhaust System |
• The exhaust system
features a 4-into-2-pre-chamber-into-2 layout. Silencer end caps maintain the
quad-style image
• Main and pre-catalyzers
ensure cleaner emissions
• Thanks to the under-engine
pre-chamber, silencer volume is reduced, and silencer weight is low. Exhaust
system offers excellent mass centralization and contributes to a low center of
gravity | |
| Slim-type Fuel Pump |
• Slim-type fuel pump
features an integral fuel gauge
• Fuel tank design and
slim-type fuel pump minimizes dead volume inside the tank; fuel capacity is 5.0
gallons | |
| Bodywork |
• Supersport-style
full-fairing bodywork gives the Ninja 1000 a distinctive, head-turning look, and
also offers plenty of wind and weather protection for short-tour ability
• The fairing’s slat-style
leading edges direct wind around the bike, allowing the fairing to be narrower
at the middle
• The fairing flares at the
rear, keeping hot engine air off the rider’s legs
• Front turn signals are
integrated into the fairing and are attached to the inside of the fairing with
rubber mounts that minimize damage if the bike falls over
• ZX-6R-spec front fender
contributes to excellent aerodynamics and racy looks
• Slim and compact tail cowl
moves mass physically and visually toward the front of the bike
• LED taillight features red
bulbs and a red transparent lens
• Slim rear fender gives the
bike a light-looking rear end
• Windscreen is manually
adjustable for optimum wind/weather protection
• Windscreen has three
available positions spanning approximately 20 degrees and ranging from sporty to
maximum wind protection. Adjustment can be done by hand (no tools required) by
depressing the release button below the instrument panel. Windscreen adjustment
should always be done with the bike
stopped | |
| Aluminum Backbone Frame |
• Aluminum backbone frame is
similar in concept to the Ninja ZX-10R’s, and helps make the bike narrow and
easy to grip with the knees for maximum rider comfort and feedback
• The frame is lightweight
and highly rigid, and uses the engine as a stressed member for solid handling
and optimum stability
• Frame elements are tuned
to transmit optimal engine feedback to the rider
• The frame’s five-piece
construction consists of steering stem, left and right main frames, and two
cross pieces. The two main frame components have open C-shaped cross sections
• Welds were eliminated
wherever possible for simplicity and appearance; the frame beams and swingarm
brackets are single die-cast pieces
• The new frame uses four
engine mounts, three of which are rigid, one of which (the upper rear crankcase
mount) is rubber
• Rear subframe is a
three-piece aluminum die-casting assembly that’s light, strong and optimizes
mass centralization
• The sub-frame is an
example of form and function combined, negating the need for side covers and
allowing underseat narrowness for a shorter reach to the
ground | |
| Horizontal Back-Link Rear Suspension |
• All-new rear suspension
design positions the shock unit and linkage above the swingarm where it’s less
exposed to exhaust heat and contributes to mass centralization
• Visible from the outside,
the horizontal monoshock contributes to the Ninja 1000’s ultra-sporty appearance
• Linkage characteristics
are the same as those of a standard Uni-Trak® system: Wheel movement versus
shock stroke is the same ratio
• The shock features
stepless rebound damping and spring preload adjustability for a custom-tuned
ride | |
| Fully Adjustable 41mm Fork |
• The Ninja 1000’s inverted
fork is adjustable for compression damping, rebound damping and spring preload –
and is protected from harm by a cool-looking shroud
• Settings are designed for
both sporty performance and ride
quality | |
| Rider Interface |
• Separate, raised
handlebars contribute to the sporty, comfortable riding position; bar stays are
mounted to the fork tube tops, which extend above the top clamp
• A thick urethane seat
provides a high level of rider and passenger comfort
• Tapered-type grips, like
those used on supersport models, offer a more direct feel
• Ninja ZX-10R-style
footpegs with knurled surfaces offer secure grip, direct feel and control, and
no-nonsense looks
• The passenger footpeg
brackets incorporate convenient luggage
hooks | |
| Instrumentation |
• Sporty instrument panel
features a large analog tachometer and multi-function LCD screen. It’s a design
based on the ZX-6R’s unit, but which features original graphics and coloring
• Functions include
speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, odometer, clock, dual trip meters and
warning lamps
• Hazard switch located on
left bar pod | |
| Brakes |
• 300mm front petal-type
brake discs are gripped by opposed four-piston radial-mount calipers. (Caliper
piston size is 4x30mm)
• A radial-pump front brake
master cylinder contributes to the superb control and feel offered by these
high-end calipers
• The rear brake is a
single-piston, pin-slide caliper gripping a 250mm petal-type disc. The caliper
is mounted below the swingarm, and located by a torque
rod | |
| Large-volume Fuel Tank |
• Five-gallon (19L) fuel
tank offers substantial range
• Steel construction
facilitates use of magnetic tank bag
• Tank shape (flared edges
and a trim shape at the back) allows riders to easily grip tank with their
knees | | |
