KAWASAKINinja 1000 ABS 2012 - 2013

　　In 2013, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS, a bike that delivered a combination of power, handling, looks, technology, and rideability, which resulted in hard-to-beat performance.

　　The bike featured a well-integrated full fairing with an aggressive styling design that gave it a sporty character and its own distinctive appearance, but, in an instant, the bike was easily recognizable as a Kawasaki machine.

　　The lightweight and rigid twin-tube aluminum frame featured a narrow design and used the engine as a stressed member of the chassis while delivering maximum riding excitement with quick steering and light handling.

　　Also, the model featured a three-position manually adjustable windshield ranging from sporty to maximum wind protection and an upright seating position with raised handlebars that offered great comfort and control.

　　In the power department, the 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS took its thrust from a 1,043cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 138 hp with a peak at 9,600 rpm and 110 Nm (81 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,800 rpm.

　　The only difference from the standard model was the addition of the ABS, which provided better braking performance over a wide range of scenarios and came as a standard feature. Also, the Ninja 1000 was available without ABS in the USA and UK markets.
