Sportbikes contain the most advanced motorcycle design technology available which are designed for high speed, acceleration, braking and look like the monsters. Speed makes a strong impression and many people in the world feel excited with superbikes. In this website, we can concern about superbikes, their characteristics, performances appearances. In addition, I will summarize and update news and post many tips when we control a bike.
The ZZR1400 (Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14 in North America) is a hyper sportmotorcycle manufactured by Kawasaki and is currently their most powerful sport bike. It was introduced at the Tokyo 2005 show and released for the 2006 model year as a replacement for the ZX-12R. Its direct competitor in the hyper sport segment is the Suzuki Hayabusa.
The ZZR1400 is capable of accelerating from 0–60 mph in 2.5 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 186 mph (299 km/h). This limit has been in effect on both Kawasaki and Suzuki sport motorcycles since 2001 when both companies realized that the speed war between them would only serve to bring about government regulation.
The motorcycle was featured in season 10 of Fifth Gear on October 30, 2006.
Motorcycle USA road tested the bike in its October 10, 2006, issue and posted the following stock results:
