Kawasaki

For Indian Roads

About Kawasaki
Kawasaki motorcycles are manufactured by the
Motorcycle & Engine division of Kawasaki Heavy
Industries at plants in Japan, USA, Philippines,
Indonesia and Thailand.
Kawasaki Aircraft initially manufactured motorcycles
under the Meguro Works name, but later formed
Kawasaki Motor Sales. Some motorcycles display an
emblem with "Kawasaki Aircraft" on the fuel tank.
Kawasaki Ninja (1000cc)
The Kawasaki Ninja 1000 (in some markets the Z1000SX) is
a sport touring motorcycle introduced in 2011. Other than its
name, it is unrelated to the Ninja 1000R produced from 1986–
89, or to other Ninja motorcycles.
It is generally characterized as a fully-faired sibling of the
Z1000 street fighter, sharing the same 1,043cc liquid-cooled,
electronic fuel-injected, 16-valve four-stroke inline-four engine
and aluminium twin-tube backbone frame. but with
ergonomics, storage, and other design elements more oriented
to the sport touring market. The Ninja 1000 is also fitted with
an electronic speed limiter, as its fairing gives it improved
aerodynamics over the Z1000.
Bajaj-Kawasaki
Specially for Indian roads Kawasaki made a
collaboration with Bajaj and Launched its Ninja Bike
with few modifications.
Kawasaki reduced the power as well as the Cubic
Capacity of the bike so that it could fit the Indian
roads .
It came up with the bike of 150 – 350 cc ranges and the
price range of 2 – 3.75 L.
Comparisons of kawasaki and yamaha
sports bikes
Kawasaki has positioned the bike as a "sport bike for the real
world". As the model will not be homologated for racing
purposes, the designers were free to make compromises for
street performance. The Ninja 1000 thus has an upright
seating position, large fuel tank, and adjustable windscreen
among its features, as well a transmission geared for street-
riding as opposed to racing. Nevertheless, it retains the large
engine and aggressive styling of a sport bike, and its
performance characteristics remain on the sport end of the
spectrum, placing it more in competition with bikes like the
Honda VFR1200F or Triumph Sprint GT as opposed to the
Kawasaki Concourse or Yamaha FJR1300.
