2012 Kawasaki Ninja ZX -10R, 2012 Kawasaki Ninja ZX -10R
Bristling with Technology, Built for Speed When passion and technology merge, great literbikes are born including the 2012 Ninja ZX-10R. Overhauled just last year, the ZX-10R bristles with the newest technology, including Sport-Kawasaki Traction Control, elevating it above all others in its class. Kawasaki engineers created an engine that produces an astounding amount of horsepower, yet maintains the realibility Kawasaki is known for. All of this technology only enhances the already incredible speed and intense feeling a rider gets while aboard a ZX-10R. Features may include: Engine Design is compact, narrow and lightweight. Camshafts, crankshaft and pistons designed to complement the engine s prodigious power production. Large intake valves, camshaft profiles and port shapes help maximize power production and smooth power delivery. Chromoly camshafts enhance durability. Single-shaft secondary balancer helps reduce vibration; its use allows several vibration-damping parts to be simplified and lightened. Strong connecting rods suit the power potential of this engine. ECU is small enough to be tucked away in a slot in the airbox assembly. One-piece upper crankcase and cylinder casting offers maximum rigidity. Low-friction oil pump reduces parasitic power loss. A lightweight radiator with tightly packed cores provides efficient engine cooling. A liquid-cooled aluminum oil cooler promotes high-efficiency heat dissipation. Intake and exhaust valves are titanium to reduce reciprocating weight and stress at high rpm. Transmission Race-style cassette transmission allows simple trackside gearing changes to suit individual circuits. The cassette is located high enough that it can be accessed without having to drain engine oil. Primary and final reduction ratios minimize rear end movement (squat/lift) during acceleration and deceleration. Close-ratio 4th, 5th and 6th gears complement the ZX-10R s circuit performance. Overall gear ratios suit the power characteristics for ideal power delivery in all rpm ranges. An adjustable back-torque limiting clutch facilitates smooth downshifts, a main contributor to stability under heavy braking.
