For the official Kawasaki WSB effort, run by Paul Bird Motorsport in conjunction with Kawasaki Heavy Industries itself, 2009 was a tough year at times but one in which much was learned. It was PBM’s first season as an official squad in WSB, which brought its own level of complication and challenge for all involved. Even through the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R was not a new model for the 2009 season, the expectations from within Kawasaki and the team itself were still higher than before. But rider injury to both Broc Parkes and Makoto Tamada unavoidably held back the development continuity of the race package, ... Read Full Story

The 2010 Kawasaki ZX-6R harder, sharper and more track focused then ever before. The new Kawasaki ZX-6R challenges you to a fight down at the local race track. The Kawasaki ZX-6R is a bike that unashamedly aimed at the track day rider, race replica nut and experienced road rider. What they're saying , then, is it's not for novices. Kawasaki Thailand did not yet introduced the Ninja ZX-6R on the Thai market, so we visited Kawasaki Malaysia to see the machine with our own eyes. To be truthful Kawasaki didn't really need to go through so much explaining to tell us that the Kawasaki ... Read Full Story

Kawasaki engineers utilized a "stack" design for the extraordinarily compact, liquid-cooled, 998 cc inline four-cylinder engine.

The crank 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 x 55 mm, the ZX-10R engine's one-piece cylinder and crankcase assembly reduces weight and increases rigidity. The double overhead cams are machined from chromoly steel billet 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.

Clutch Spec:

A multi-plate wet clutch with a back torque limiter transfers power to a six-speed, close-ratio transmission ideal for closed-course competition. The back-torque limiter automatically disengages the clutch under hard braking and deceleration to prevent rear wheel hop during corner entry, commonly known as "backing it in" (looks good when done correctly). This also ensures complete control under hard braking.
