Sportbike perfection.
Who said there’s no such thing as a perfect marriage? For proof, all you have to do is ride the Kawasaki
Ninja® ZX-9R. Its unique partnership yields an almost magnetic attraction for sport riders. In sum, the ZX-9R combines open-class power, scalpel-sharp 750 superbike handling, and comfort the competitors can’t match. Its incredible performance starts with a magnificent 899cc DOHC In-Line Four inspired by our fearsome AMA Superbikes. We rigidly mounted it in a pressed-aluminum frame, then added high-quality, tuneable suspension and great wind protection that makes the ZX-9R as happy sport-touring the Badlands as carving a Sunday morning in the canyons. Lightweight brakes
and a host of exotic components keep the weight down to an incredible 410 pounds. Sound incredible? It is. But like we said, the ZX-9R is the perfect marriage.

These diverse and sometimes unconventional products have endeared riders to Kawasaki motorcycles. From the triple-cylinder H1 and four-cylinder DOHC Z1 to the legendary ZX-11 and its eventual inheritor the ZX-12R, Kawasaki motorcycles embody the motorcycle essence of raw power and quality engineering unlike any other manufacturer.
