2012 Kawasaki
Ninja ZX-14R
MSRP $14,699
Since its debut in 2006 the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14 has been all about performance. Being one of the fastest production bikes on the market wasn’t enough, as Kawasaki has outdone itself again with sweeping revisions to the big Ninja. The engine’s dual gear-driven equalizer set up, has been enhanced to work with the new mill’s longer-stroke proportions and crankshaft variations. The result is level power across the rev range.
