Kawasaki have weighed in with an updated version of the ZX-10R – the ZX-10RR!
Built primarily for those who want to go Superstock racing, or for those who want a kick-ass Club Racing bike, or even for those with the cash to build a special trackday bike, the ZX-10RR comes with a few nice extras. and an engine ready built to accept natty items such as high-lift cams, and so on and so forth. There will be just 500 of these made available for Europe, and all come in the Winter test livery. Highlights of the bike are as follows:
Only 500 available to Europe (Yes, that still means us…)
Race Ready
1kg lighter
New Winter Test livery
New Modified cylinder head
New reinforced crankcases
New DLC coated tappets
New Marchesini wheels
New Brembo M50 calipers, master-cylinder & steel hoses
New downshift-blipper
New race kit accessory chassis adjustments (head & pivot angles)
Optimised suspension settings

It may not seem like a lot, but it actually is, and even if you never turn this bike into a racer or track machine it’ll be very special indeed just to own. Or, buy some race kit parts and go nuts!
No word on prices yet, but as soon as we get them we’ll post them! Nice work, Kawasaki, nice work…
