The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a motorcycle in the Ninjasport bike series from the Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki,[1] the successor to the Ninja ZX-9R. It was originally released in 2004 and has been updated and revised throughout the years. It combines an ultra-narrow chassis, low weight, and radial brakes. In 2004 and 2005 the ZX-10R won Best Superbike from Cycle World magazine, and the international Masterbike competition.[citation needed]

Components[edit]
Engine[edit]
Kawasaki engineers used a stacked design for a liquid-cooled, 998 cc (60.9 cu in) inline four-cylinder engine. The crankshaft axis, input shaft and output shaft of the Ninja ZX-10R engine are positioned in a triangular layout to reduce engine length, while the high-speed generator is placed behind the cylinder bank to reduce engine width. With a bore and stroke of 76 mm × 55 mm (3.0 in × 2.2 in), the ZX-10R engine's one-piece cylinder and crankcase assembly reduces weight and increases rigidity. The DOHC are machined from chromoly steel, built for strength; four valves per cylinder improve high-rpm breathing; and the forged, lightweight pistons offer high heat resistance to further enhance the bike's power-to-weight ratio.
Cooling system[edit]
In addition to liquid cooling, the ZX-10R engine has an oil cooler adjacent to the oil filter to reduce oil temperatures. Slosh analysis was also used to design the internal structure of the oil pan, thereby reducing windage losses and helping to maintain low oil temperatures.
Clutch[edit]
A multi-plate wet slipper clutch transfers power to a six-speed, close-ratio transmission ideal for closed-course competition. The back-torque limiter automatically disengages the clutch (partially) under hard downshifting at high engine speeds to prevent rear wheel hop during corner entry.
Wheels[edit]
A new six spoke wheel design is claimed to be almost as light as special purpose race wheels. Since the 2006 model the sidewall profile of the rear tire has been increased from 190/50/ZR17 to 190/55/ZR17.
History[edit]
2004–2005[edit]
The 2004 model was the debut of the Ninja ZX-10R with minor updates in 2005. It was compact with a short wheelbase and a high power-to-weight ratio, which helped the handling. The exhaust system was fully titanium with single muffler.
2006–2007[edit]
2007 Ninja ZX-10R
Among other changes, the 2006 model had twin underseat exhausts which contributed to a 5 kg (11 lb) increase in dry weight. The engine remained largely unchanged.
The 2006 ZX1000D6F model carried over to the 2007 model year, with only color scheme changes. The most noticeable difference between 2006 and 2007 is that the heat-shields on the exhaust pipes are black on the 2007 ZX10R, and 2006 came with silver ones.

2008[edit]
The ZX-10R was all new for its launch for the 2008 model year. There was a dramatic change in appearance with the bike with a much more angular front end. Kawasaki moved away from the twin underseat exhausts of the 2006–2007 model to a more conventional single side exhaust. The compression ratio of the engine was raised.

2009[edit]
The 2009 model received only slight changes to the transmission from the 2008 model. The shift shaft was upgraded to allow smoother shifts.

2010[edit]
The 2010 model received slight changes from the 2009 model, including, upgraded Öhlins steering damper, headlights were recessed into the fairing and the individual fairing centre section pieces where now fused into one moulding.[2]
2011–2015[edit]
The 2011 ZX-10R underwent major overhaul both mechanically and visually. Most notably, Kawasaki introduced their Sport Kawasaki Traction Control (S-KTRC) system as standard. It predicts when traction will be lost and adapts accordingly. Also new are an ABS option called Kawasaki Intelligent Braking System (KIBS), a completely new design, adjustable foot-pegs, larger throttle bodies, a horizontal rear suspension, lighter three-spoke wheels, Showa Big Piston Fork (BPF)[3] front suspension, and an LCD panel dashboard.[4] The 2012 model is identical to the 2011 with the only exception being the slightly different paint schemes offered. In 2013 the models went under another small revision where the colors offered changed again and the front damper was replaced with an Ohlins electronic front steering dampener. In 2014 the only changes were different colors. In 2015 the only color offered was black, alongside a 30th anniversary edition (in EU, a green color is also offered).
Tom Sykes in 2013 became the first Superbike World Champion for Kawasaki since Scott Russell and the first on a ZX-10R. Stuart Easton won the 2014 Macau Grand Prix. Jonathan Rea won the 2015 Superbike World Championship season. Jeremy Toye holds the Heavyweight (Open) lap record at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
2016[edit]
2016 Ninja ZX-10R
The 2016 ZX-10R received a major update. With a claimed 210 hp with ram-air intake at 13,000 rpm.[5] The electronics now use a Bosch five-axis Internal Measurement Unit (IMU). A sixth degree is calculated by proprietary Kawasaki software. The S-KTRC updated with an added launch control mode, a quickshifter and engine brake control. Also optional smarter KIBS cornering ABS. Because of its predictive as opposed to reactive nature, Kawasaki touts this system of S-KTRC as the most advanced of all current traction control systems. Some of the changes mechanically that are now lighter are the slipper clutch, balancer,crankshaft as well as pistons. A less restrictive air filter and larger air box as well as a lighter less restrictive exhaust system. A new transmission that is cassette style is vertically stacked. The previous petal rotors that have been in use since 2004 are now replaced with circular rotors. They are now also larger from 310 mm (12.2 in) to now 330 mm (13.0 in). The calipers are now Brembo M50 Monoblock and the master cylinder is a radial Brembo. The brake lines are now braided stainless-steel. A first for production sport bikes a 43 mm Showa Balance Free Fork derived from WSBK. Kawasaki also offers Race Kit parts for chassis and engine.[6]
2017[edit]
Kawasaki released a homologation special, the ZX-10RR with modified cylinder head. Race-kit parts can be ordered such as high lift cams, DLC coated valve train, a beefed up crank case, Marchesini seven-spoke rims, a bi-directional quickshifter, and a single seat. The model was limited run of 500 units.[7]

Awesome product, equally awesome seller
First of all sellers/merchants like this are the reason I use eBay more than amazon or any other online marketplace. I placed the order around 4pm Thursday, and had a shipping notification in about 20 minutes. Ebay estimated it would arrive on Tuesday, figured I’d probably get it Monday because it was only PA to OH. I was wrong, it was in my mailbox on SATURDAY, barely 2 days after I paid, and for free. I’ve bought enough stuff online to know that the seller wasted no time sending my purchase, USPS generally sucks, I give all the credit for speed to the seller.As to the product, if you’re reading this you already know what it’s supposed to do, and it fits and works perfectly. Previous to this purchase I tried 2 different methods of making a “DIY servo eliminator” with a capacitor and resistors, based on forum posts claiming you can easily build a servo buddy for under $10. I can’t speak for other bikes, but my 2006 zx6r ran very poorly and threw the same FI code with both of the DIY schematics I tried. Ponied up for this product out of frustration and I wish I would’ve done so in the first place. Fit is perfect, finish is nice and clean, FI light is off and stays off, and the bike is running perfectly. In other words, it’s well worth the money
