Kawasaki ZX-6R Ninja
Kawasaki have revamped the ZX-6R for 2009, with changes to the styling, a revised chassis, beefier swingarm, an engine that’s been fettled for better low- and mid-range power delivery and a weight reduction of 10 kilos.
The ZX-6R gets magnesium engine case covers, lighter cams and various
other mods that make it 10kg lighter than the previous model. Improved
combustion efficiency and the usage of double bore velocity stacks is
supposed to smoothen out the power delivery and boost low- and mid-range
power on this Kawasaki.
Big changes on the suspension front include Showa's new Big Piston Front
(BPF) 41mm USD fork, which is fully adjustable and features a
large-diameter internal piston that’s supposed to reduce the effects of
damping pressure and eliminating the heavier internals found in
cartridge-style forks. The result, say Kawasaki, is improved front end
feel and reduced turn-in effort. A new Öhlins steering damper has also
been added to the bike.
Key Feature
- New leaner physique with a major reduction in weight and improved power
delivery offer more precise control, lighter handling and better
acceleration
More precise throttle control
Lower seat height
Additional Features
- New fairing offers better wind protection and was designed to minimize
the effects of cross winds Moto Caradisiac Impressions This time around, Kawasaki seem to be truly serious about hunting down the R6, CBR 600RR, GSX-R600 and even the Daytona 675. The 2009 ZX-6R is indeed an all-new bike – it shares nothing with its predecessor. And to begin with, the new bike looks really good – a perfect mix of aggression and sobriety.
The engine sounds relatively subdued when you start the bike, though the
sound is still pleasant. And the riding position and ergonomics feel just
right you immediately feel comfortable on this bike.
