Get Closer to the ZX-10RR
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR is now the closest that you can get to the current World Superbike winning (and runner up) KRT machine, as ridden by Tom Sykes and Jonathan Rae.
From 2019, the rev range is increased by 600 RPM, The engine now benefits from the much lighter titanium con rods and the valve train now utilises a new “finger follower” system as opposed to bucket and shim control.
Over and above the exceptional features that are available on the standard Kawasaki ZX10R, the ZX10RR comes with super light weight Marchesini 7 spoke wheel rims adorned with the very latest in Pirelli’s supersport portfoilio, the Diablo Supercorsa.
The combination of a lightweight tyre and wheel has the huge benefit of decreasing unsprung weight which drastically reduces inertia allowing for faster and more accurate turning capability. It is all about hitting the apex.
The combination of these married to the balance free big piston forks, the petal discs, M50 Brembo monobloc calipers with the latest Bosch race ABS and the sweet 4 cyclinder power plant that produces in excess of 200 bhp, the ZX10RR really is a force to be reckoned with.
It is not only chassis modifications that have been made on the Kawasaki ZX10RR but Kawasaki have transposed the proven engine modifications from the World Championship winning machine directly to the engine of this production road bike.
The Kawasaki ZX10RR also comes with a factory fitted quickshifter that operates on both up and down gearshifts. It is sublime.
Although aesthetically very similar to the ZX10R, please note that the Kawasaki ZX10RR is a single seat motorcycle.
One colourway available – What other than Lime Green ??.
This bike is being brought into the UK in small numbers (ie. a limited run production). The majority of these bikes will be destined for the UK race paddocks. If you would like to be one of the few to own one of these rare beasts then we would urge you to give us a call now on 01508 471919.

Cylinder and Crankcase
Modified cylinder head provides the clearance to accommodate race-kit high-lift cams. Reinforced, high-rigidity crankcase offers increase reliability and performance for a race-tuned engine.
Tappets
Tappets based on feedback from Kawasaki’s WSB racing efforts feature a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, which facilitates mid/long-distance engine break-in, and offers reduced mechanical loss and increased performance for a race-tuned engine.
Marchesini Forged Wheel Rims
7-spoke multi-directional forged aluminium wheels jointly developed with Marchesini contribute to lighter handling – especially when changing direction. They offer a balance of high rigidity and a significantly reduced moment of inertia.
In addition The Ninja ZX-10RR is fit with Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres. The high-performance tyres greatly contribute to quicker lap times.
Special RR Touches
Machined “RR” logo engraved into the pulser cover helps distinguish the Ninja ZX-10RR from the crowd. Ignition key adorned with a “RR” logo adds another special touch.
Optimised Suspension Settings
Revised to match the Ninja ZX-10RR’s single-seat specification and new wheels and tyres, new front and rear suspension settings ensure smooth weight transfer during deceleration and acceleration on the circuit. Pitching is kept at a manageable level, resulting in composed behaviour. Complementing the new Pirelli tyres, the suspension settings contribute to the bike’s quicker lap times.
KQS – Kawasaki Quick Shifter
Updated KQS system allows both clutchless upshifts and downshifts, contributing to raceready performance. Designed for effective sport riding, KQS can also be used on the street.
Aerodynamic Bodywork
Larger upper cowl improves the aerodynamic performance of the machine-rider package, offering a lower cdA (coefficient of drag) than the previous model. The increased wind protection (reduced stress from wind blast) enables riders to change positions more smoothly as they set up for corner entry when riding on the track.
