The Ninja ZX-6R is Kawasaki middleweight track tool
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is the Japanese manufacturer's middleweight track ready tool and comes to India despite a niche market for this segment of motorcycles. The bike is powered by the 636 cc in-line, four-cylinder DOHC engine tuned for 126 bhp at 13,500 rpm and 70.8 Nm of peak torque available at 11,000 rpm. The supersport comes equipped with Kawasaki anti-lock Brake System (KIBS), three-mode traction control and Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS) as standard. The bike also comes with power mode selection.

The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is shod with Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S22 tyres that contribute to lighter handling, while offering superior grip in both dry and wet conditions. The ZX-6R comes to India as a single-seater with the pillion seat optional, while the bike is imported in the country as a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) unit. The ZX-6R uses a Showa suspension, and also gets an assist and slipper clutch. The ZX-6R gets twin LED headlamps and taillight as well as a multi-function LCD instrument console.
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R does not have a direct rival in India at present, but at the price point, the model does compete with the likes of the Triumph Street Triple RS and the Ducati Supersport.
