Kawasaki Other description

The new 2013 Ninja ZX-6R marks the return of a middleweight sportbike legend, 3 numbers that strike fear into the heart of the competition: six...three...six. It is a tradition born of street cred and racetrack domination, a performance boost offered at the same price as the competition's regular 6 hundreds, and it's a machine that screams Performance Counts! The new ZX-6R honors a dominating family tradition started ten years ago with the 1st 636, a revolutionary machine that blew-away the competition's 600's on the street and won races against factory 750's on the track.Key Features Genuine Supersport performance and styling with an added dose of street potency New 636cc inline-four is supremely powerful on the racetrack and extremely flexible on the street New Selectable engine power modes New Three-mode KTRC traction control New Showa Big Piston Separate Function Fork (BP-SFF) offers light weight, easy adjustability and fantastic wheel control New one-piece monobloc radial-mount Nissin front brake calipers and radial-pump front brake master cylinder offer superb braking power and control New F.C.C. clutch with assist and slipper functions offers light clutch pull, strong clamping force and helps minimize wheel chatter caused by aggressive downshifting New sharp and aggressive bodywork and styling info clearly shout: Performance Counts! Revised lightweight twin-spar aluminum frame places the engine in the optimum position for superb handling and rider feedback and features a new steeper 23.5-degree rake angle that helps quicken steering response, enhance maneuverability and promote clear communication from the front tire New Steering stem seals produce less friction for easier steering inputs and noticeably improved handling at low speedsNEW 636cc Engine New 636cc displacement uses a longer-stroke to boost engine performance throughout the rev range. Low-mid range torque is especially enhanced, making roll-on and real world performance more usable Digital Fuel Injection (DFI) system features four 38mm Keihin throttle bodies with oval sub-throttles Revised intake and exhaust ports suit the engine's larger displacement. The intake ports are wider near the throttle bodies and the passages to the valves split earlier. The exhaust ports are wider near the exhaust valves New intake cam lobes feature longer duration, intake and exhaust lobes have increased lift for additional power Chrome-moly steel camshafts are light, strong and durable New pistons feature a revised crown to enhance strength and accommodate the increased valve lift Revised 12.9:1 compression ratio suits longer-stroke and increased displacement Molybdenum coating on piston skirts reduces friction and facilitates engine break-in New straight piston pins have increased rigidity to help maintain high-rpm performance and reliability New connecting rods are shorter and stronger to suit the increased power. They also feature thicker stems and larger-radius small ends for additional strength Modified passages connecting cylinders were revised so the longer stroke would not cause the pistons to obstruct them and increase pumping losses New larger airbox contributes to increased peak power and smooth power delivery New longer, single-bore intake funnels improve low-mid range torque. 2 different funnel shapes (outer are the same, inner are the same ) help deliver optimized throttle response Ultra-fine atomizing injectors help ensure complete air-fuel mixing and max combustion efficiency. More precise tuning contributes to reduced emissions. The injectors can also flow a greater volume of fuel, to help match the new larger-displacement engine New exhaust features balance tubes on all 4 header pipes to maximize low-end torque Exhaust pre-chamber makes efficient use of space, reduces exhaust noise and allows a smaller muffler to be pre-owned New muffler features a triangular cross-section to provide sufficient internal volume while still offering good ground clearance and max lean angle, as well as a compact appearance New lighter generator with revised coils produces less heat and reduces mechanical loss New zero-cross control voltage regulator significantly reduces the amount of electronic noise produced when it interrupts the generator's output Cassette-type transmission helps simplify ratio-swaps and reduce set-up time at the track New shorter 1st gear, stronger alloys and revised gear thicknesses improve durability and help cope with the extra torque produced by the 636cc engine Lightweight x-ring drive chain uses lightening holes on the inner link plates to reduce weight.NEW Selectable Power Modes New power mode selector on the left clip-on gives ZX-6R riders the option to choose between 2 different engine power delivery modes to suit their needs Output at low rpm is the same in both modes, but Low mode limits engine output to approx 80% and gives a milder throttle response. Hi mode allows the full performance potential of the engine to be unleashedNEW Three-Mode Kawasaki Traction Control (KTRC) New three-mode KTRC traction control combines the best elements of the Ninja ZX-10R S-KTRC and ZX-14R/Concours14 KTRC systems. 3 different modes are tuned to cover a wide-range of situations from advanced racetrack use, to normal street riding, to mixed/slippery conditions, for enhanced rider confidence Mode one is tuned to maximize acceleration, like the ZX-10R S-KTRC system Mode two is tuned to help provide a balance of performance with minimal wheel slip Mode three prioritizes slip elimination, similar to the Concours14 ANTI LOCK BRAKES sport touring KTRC system, for enhanced rider confidence in mixed or slippery conditions The KTRC system may also be turned-off completely, at the rider's discretion Handy mode selector on the left clip-on makes it easy for the rider to change KTRC settings Using complex programming algorithms, the KTRC system is able to predict impending wheelspin and act before slippage exceeds the optimum range, allowing reductions in power to be minimized for ultra-smooth operation In modes one and 2, conditions are analyzed 200 times per 2nd and any necessary adjustments are made through ignition timing alone, for extremely quick response from the engine and KTRC system In Mode 3, the system functions like mode two under most conditions, but when excessive rear wheel spin is detected, Mode three switches to complete three-way control of ignition timing, fuel delivery and intake airflow to regulate engine output to a level that allows the rear wheel to regain grip. By controlling the sub-throttles in the intake tract for precise torque management, a smooth and natural feeling can be attained: Mode three intervention and on/off transitions are very smooth to help maintain stability during extended operation The system uses minimal hardware supplemented by advanced software. In addition to the engine's ECU, the system only requires front and rear wheel speed sensors, meaning minimal additional weight is required for traction control.NEW F.C.C. Clutch with Assist and Slipper Functions New F.C.C. clutch with assist & slipper functions uses 2 types of cams, an assist cam and a slipper cam that were developed based on racetrack testing and rider feedback The F.C.C. clutch's assist cam acts like a self-servo mechanism, pulling the clutch hub and operating plate together to compress the clutch plates under load. This allows the total clutch spring count and pressure to be reduced, re
