Kawasaki has updated the Ninja ZX-14R with mechanical updates and new list of features and introduced a new Performance Sport. We can expect the 2016 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R to be launched in India by early next year
Kawasaki has updated the ZZR1400 or Ninja ZX-14R in the Indian market to make the performance motorcycle Euro4 compliant. The motorcycle has been made available in two variants for the European market - standard and ZZR1400 Performance Sport. The new Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R gets revised ECU setting and a new exhaust system so that the model meets the emissions norms without a drop in the power output. The 2016 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R’s 1,441cc, liquid-cooled, inline four motor churns out 200PS in stoke form and 210PS with the optional ram-air. Apart from the mechanical update, the new Ninja ZX-14R also gets equipped with a new instrument cluster features high-visibility dials and LCD displays using a dot-pattern background. A TFT display though would have been more welcome given its pricing.
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R Performance Sport gets equipped with new Brembo M50 monobloc brake callipers which also made its debut on the new Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R. Other additions include Ohlins TTX39 rear shock and a Akrapovic sourced exhaust muffler that should make it a sweet sounding beast. The 2016 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R has been priced at Rs 12 lakh in the UK market while the Performance Sport version carries a sticker price of Rs 13.4 lakh. We can expect the updated Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R to hit our shores by early 2016.
