Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A., (KMC) unveiled the future of its sportbike DNA in the form of the all-new 2004 NINJA® ZX-10R motorcycle, serving notice to Superbike racers and sportbike enthusiasts that Kawasaki is committed to its heritage of building uncompromising, high-performance motorcycles.
The NINJA ZX-10R puts Kawasaki at the front of sportbike design and performance. From the overall shape to the smallest detail, the ZX-10R combines high technology with the latest innovations, including a new, high-output engine, ultra-narrow aluminum frame, ergonomic design and compact bodywork with a frontal area smaller than those of most 600cc sportbikes.
Tom Orbe, vice president of marketing at KMC, said the ZX-10R is a sportbike worthy of Kawasaki's image – and it sends a clear message to the motorcycling world that the green brand is pulling out all the stops to be number one on the race track.
"The NINJA ZX-10R is designed to have the best power-to-weight ratio and best handling on the track," said Orbe. "It will provide riders with more than enough power and handling to take on the competition."
