KAWASAKINinja ZX-10R 2003 - 2004

　　The Ninja ZX-10R was a motorcycle in the Ninja sport bike series made by Kawasaki and released as a successor to the Ninja ZX-9R. The bike was launched in 2004 and combined an ultra-narrow chassis, low weight, and radially-mounted brakes.

　　The 2004 model packed a category-leading power-to-weight ratio, a powerful engine loaded with advanced technology, and a style derived from the world of MotoGP racing machines. The bike's design started with a chassis simulation, as the engineers targeted an extremely lightweight and compact chassis that would deliver crisp handling and stability.

　　Just like the ZX-RR, the 10R model featured a short wheelbase and a long and rigid aluminum swingarm that offered class-leading handling performance on both track and twisty roads.

　　The bike came with an all-new redesigned 998cc four-cylinder engine and wind tunnel-trimmed fairing for achieving the ultimate performance, with Integrated turn signals and flush-mounted taillight that allowed the air to pass with ease, which reduced drag resistance and increased acceleration.

　　As for power, the 2004 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R was powered by a 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 175 hp with a peak at 11,700 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) of torque available at 9,500 rpm.

　　All that power was converted into speed by a six-speed manual transmission with a chain drive that spun the rear wheel to a top speed of 291 kph (180 mph).
