2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R racebike in action

Kawasaki has released an update of the 2011
Ninja ZX-10R testing at Japan’s Suzuka Circuit.


Test rider Hidemichi Takahashi rode the new race-spec Kawasaki
ZX-10R in a test session at Suzuka. Wet conditions limited the Kawasaki
R&D team to just two or three laps of usable data, however.

World Superbike Championship race-winner Akira Yanagawa will take
over for another day of tests July 8. Kawasaki R&D has planned
several other tests in preparation for the 2011 WSBK Championship.



Based on these new photographs, the 2011 ZX-10R receives numerous
updates including a new fairing, exhaust and swingarm. The new ZX-10R
reportedly exceeds 190 hp while weighing 436.5 pounds. Check out the
following video to hear how the new Ninja sounds.
