It was then replaced in 1995 with the ZX-6R is the brand's 600 cc race replica. In Europe the model designation differed, and was introduced in 1990 as the ZZR600. The same 599 cc engine powered the bike from 1990 to 2004, then from 2005 to 2008 it used the engine from the 2004 ZX-6R.
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is a 600 cc class motorcycle in the Ninja sport bike series from the Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki. [2] It was introduced in 1995, and has been constantly updated throughout the years in response to new products from Honda , Suzuki , and Yamaha .
At the front, the upside-down telescopic fork is a Showa SFF-BP (the ZX-4SE and ZX-4RR also have a preload adjustment mechanism), while at the rear there is a horizontal back-link suspension partially derived from the larger ZX-10R; the ZX-4RR variant has the same Showa BFRC-lite rear shock as the Ninja ZX-10R.
Engine. The bike is characterized by having a 249 cc in-line four-cylinder engine, therefore an engine with a very small volume but with a multi-cylinder fractionation.The engine is mounted in front of the gear and is powered by a multipoint indirect electronic injection system with DOHC distribution and 16 valves, four for each cylinder; delivers about 50 HP and can reach 17,000 rpm.
Kawasaki engineers used a stacked design for a liquid-cooled, 998 cc (60.9 cu in) inline four-cylinder engine. The crankshaft 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.
Supersport was introduced as a support class to the Superbike World Championship in 1990 as a European Championship. The series allows four-cylinder engines up to 600 cubic centimetres (37 cu in), three-cylinder engines up to 675 cubic centimetres (41.2 cu in), and twin-cylinder power plants up to 750 cubic centimetres (46 cu in).
The ZZR1400 or Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14 and ZX-14R (2006–present), is a motorcycle in the Ninja sport bike series from the Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki that was their most powerful sport bike as of 2006. [8]
Almost all quickshifters for upshifts on motorcycles work on the same basis: a microcontroller detects the gear shift action via a sensor, calculates the shift timing, and momentarily cuts off the ignition, resulting in a reduction of the load at the transmission allowing the engine speed to match the transmission speed of the next gear and permit the gear to slip (and engage) into place.
