Introduction
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.

The highly advanced and customizable Sport-Kawsaki Traction Control lets riders harness and capitalize on the ZX-10R’s amazing blend of power and responsive handling. The system is called Sport-Kawasaki Traction Control, or S-KTRC. Exclusive to the ZX-10R, it offers a level of performance that raises the ZX above the rest of the open sport bike class.

Features
  • Engine and chassis allow for linear power delivery
  • Sport-Kawasaki Traction Control (S-KTRC) continuously monitors wheel speed, throttle position, engine rpm and host of other data to help ensure the optimal amount of traction

  • Aluminum frame has ideal strength and rigidity
  • Big Piston Fork (BPF) helps maintain composure under braking
  • Horizontal back-link rear suspension helps deliver smooth suspension action
  • Slipper-type back-torque limiting clutch helps corner entry handling
  • Race-oriented instrumentation offers riders a wealth of information
