WP D-TRACKER X Nimble handling and motard style make this a fun-to-ride street model. The liquid-cooled DOHC Single features fuel injection for easy starting and a quick-revving feel-good character. Plus, the entire machine has been redesigned with motard-specific performance in mind. An evolution of the world's first /original street-legal motard, the new D-Tracker X features motard-specific suspension and styling. A low seat height ensures that feet can easily reach the ground. A new instrument package features a bargraph-type tachometer and an easy-to-read multi-function digital display. Petal disc brakes deliver impressive stopping performance. And a dual-bulb headlamp design heads the aggressive new styling package, further contributing to the urban experience. The D-Tracker X - real performance for the street.
WP D-Tracker X - Motard Racer Special The high-level performance offered by its base engine and chassis, facilitates customising the D-Tracker X to create a full-on race machine. That removing mirrors, lights and other parts needed for street riding, and changing the wheels, tyres and exhaust are all that is needed to build a pure race machine is a testament to the high quality of the D-Tracker X.
JP Ninja 250R An all-new model that makes a full-on supersport image easily accessible, the Ninja 250R embodies the modern sports concept. Its liquid-cooled DOHC Parallel Twin features fuel injection for easy starting, stable power delivery and rider-friendly engine performance at all rpm. In particular, a strong low-mid range combined with a plentiful top-end help the Ninja 250R further resemble its namesake. The compact chassis design offers a riding position that is sporty, yet enables easy control of the machine. Handles positioned slightly forward and up result in a very natural riding posture, ensuring a high degree of freedom that translates to confidence when controlling the bike. With its supersport looks and easy-going character, the Ninja 250R offers a wide variety of riding enjoyment.
JP Ninja 250R - Track Bike Special This specially customised trackday version of the Ninja 250R enables riders to more thoroughly enjoy sport riding on the circuit. New cowling, muffler and seat accentuate the already stylish bodywork and contribute to increased running performance.
JP KLX250 Being based on an enduro-racer makes this one serious dual purpose machine. The stylish "fighting four-stroke" receives a number of refinements. The liquid-cooled DOHC Single boasts stable power delivery care of newly added fuel injection. Robust high-rpm power puts the KLX250 out in front of the crowd, and a wide torque band ensures superb response across the rev range. Complementing the compact, lightweight chassis, revised suspension settings add surefootedness. And the revisions do not stop there… The new KLX250 features a completely redesigned styling package, starting with a new dual-bulb headlamp, easy-to-read digital instruments, petal disc brakes… With this latest evolution, the KLX250 comes of age.

JP Ninja ZX-10R One of the key development factors of the new Ninja ZX-10R was the direct implementation of know-how gained from Kawasaki's racing activities. The result of the pursuit of the essence of racing engineering, Kawasaki's supersport flagship has evolved and matured. With circuit performance a foremost concern, the highly acclaimed liquid-cooled DOHC In-Line Four benefits from even greater high-rpm potential. The new backbone twin-tube frame enables the two-way communication necessary for high-level riding: road surface conditions and bike behaviour are transmitted to the rider; the rider's intentions are transmitted to the bike. With all the refinements to maximise race-winning performance and rider-machine synchronicity, the Ninja ZX-10R represents a big step forward for riders who enjoy being in control of a high-performance machine.
JP Ninja ZX-10R Cut Model A cut model of the Ninja ZX-10R is also on display. Its main parts have been cut away to highlight the bike's key features. In particular, please note the Kawasaki-original backbone twin-tube frame, the aluminium die-cast sub-frame and the swingarm composed of press beams - a combination that delivers superb feedback to the rider. New bodywork maximises the machine-rider interface, a great advantage when competing on the racetrack.
  ZZR1400 Kawasaki's latest flagship boasts the largest displacement of any sports model in our history. The true "open-class" appeal of this machine becomes apparent the instant you open the throttle - and the ZZR1400's mighty power and acceleration seem to make the background disappear behind you. Featuring fuel injection and Ram Air, the 1,352 cm3 liquid-cooled DOHC 4-valve-per-cylinder In-Line Four is rigid-mounted to the box-section aluminium monocoque frame. Enabling a compact chassis, this construction also delivers high rigidity. Top-level aerodynamics contribute to both high-speed stability and light handling. Signature quadruple projector beam headlights and an aggressive styling package have earned this machine a place in the hearts of many fans.
  1400GTR "Continent-crossing performance" is the key phrase for this high-performing sport tourer. Loaded with supersport technology, the 1400GTR features a fuel-injected DOHC In-Line Four with Ram Air mounted in an aluminium monocoque frame. Added to this, an inverted fork and petal discs operated by radial-mount calipers enable aggressive sport riding. Shaft drive contributes to the stability and comfort of a tourer. Variable valve timing, KIPASS (Kawasaki's Intelligent Proximity Activation Start System), tyre air-pressure sensors and an electrically adjustable windscreen - just some of the leading edge technology packed into the 1400GTR.
  Z1000 Thoroughly enjoying the exhilaration that comes from the surge of a powerful engine while deftly navigating a set of corners in the hills… that is what defines Kawasaki's performance naked Z world - a world created by the original Z1000. Power from the high-performance liquid-cooled DOHC In-Line Four combined with direct feedback from the highly communicative chassis gives the Z1000 its "muscular sports performance." With its focus on low and mid-range power and torque, the Z1000 delivers performance for the real world, allowing Z1000 owners to ride with authority whether in town, in the hills or on the highway. A physical embodiment of the Z world, the Z1000's avant-garde, crouching style clearly reflects its ferocious character.
