KEY FEATURES
Air-Cooled Oil Cooler
Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres
The Ninja ZX-10RR is fit standard with top of the range Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres.
Single Seat
The single seat enhances the track focus of the Ninja ZX-10RR.
High-Performance Brembo Brake System
Dual high-spec Brembo M50 monobloc calipers gripping large ø330 mm discs, specially prepared radial-pump master cylinder and race-quality steel-braided lines* deliver next-level braking performance. *Steel-braided lines on the Ninja ZX-10RR only
Integrated Winglets
Winglets built into the upper cowl generate downforce that helps keep the front wheel on the ground during strong acceleration.
Light-Handling Chassis
Complementing the highly acclaimed stability of the 2019 model, updates to the chassis geometry contribute to increased cornering performance and light handling.
Close-ratio Transmission
The Ninja ZX-10R’s gear ratios were idealised for circuit riding. A larger rear sprocket (39T >> 41T) and shorter ratios for 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears offer strong low-mid range acceleration for quicker corner exits, as well as quicker off-the-line acceleration for strong launches on the circuit.
Powerful 998 cm3 Liquid-Cooled, 4-Stroke In-Line Four
Updates to the Ninja ZX-10R’s powerful engine offer cleaner emissions while maintaining the performance of its predecessor.
Newly designed RR-specific Camshafts
The RR-specific camshafts were newly designed to elicit high-rpm performance.
Marchesini Forged Wheels
7-spoke multi-directional forged aluminium wheels specially developed by Marchesini contribute to lighter handling – especially when changing direction. They offer a balance of high rigidity and a significantly reduced moment of inertia, while their machined finish contributes to a high-quality appearance.
Next-Generation Ninja Styling
The aerodynamic racer-inspired front cowl, highlighted by compact LED headlights, new Ram Air intake and a taller windshield, is the “face” of the Ninja ZX-10R’s nextgeneration Ninja styling.
