Kawasakis strategy for the 2009 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14 is so simple, but as demanding as they get. First, the inline four, DOHC, four valves per cylinder engine is so light, short and as quiet as possible, despite the fact that they moved 1352 cc. Being inaugurated ram air, gas injected and digital gear driven balanced, it develops 154 Nm at 7,500 rpm and 203 hp at 9500 rpm, so that competing was clearly a priority. Meeting Euro III regulations, is also the first logical reason that people won t buy a bike that they are not allowed to drive again.
The largest Ninja main advantage is that, although it is Massive, is created to handle a much smaller and versatile motorcycle frame and all parts back up this impressive position in a way that we could simply not possible to anticipate. Weight saving was a great point to start from so that the aluminum monocoque frame with as many elements as possible while offering a good resistance. The suspensions (43mm cartridge type front fork and bottom-link Uni-Trak rear) are tuned for extreme sports car so apart from the SPD and the power brake beam, Is there really much to ask of the Ninja ZX-14, but wait until the carefully to deliver the unexpected. When first introduced back in 2006, both as a replacement for the ZX-12R and a strong competitor for the Suzuki Hayabusa, the Ninja ZX-14 is based on the same recipe as now. The engine was the same and it was fuel from the first years of manufacturing and the frame is as light as possible, while giving a new meaning to acute treatment of this class, of course. 2006 colors were Passion Red, Ebony, and Candy Thunder Blue.

The only thing this bike really need to fall each year was a different color space and nothing more. So in 2007 it recommended the Diablo Black Candy Plasma Blue and Special Edition Pearl Crystal White, while in 2008 the colors Metallic Midnight Sapphire Blue, Atomic Silver, Metallic Flat Spark and special version Black / Metallic Persimmon Red charged. If a large engine, the Kawasaki ZX-14 featured at least less eccentric colors in an attempt to look like the twisty. But, despite its size, was painted Candy Lime Green, Super Flat Black Kawasaki and even introduces two special edition colors, Candy Burnt Orange and Metallic Diablo Black.

Those who have ridden a ZX-14, marvel at a power supply which allows for easy pulling away from a total stop in almost every gear.Ram Air Induction
Central Ram Air duct produces a straighter path to the airbox for maximum intake efficiency
This system cooler, higher pressure air from in front of the fairing and guides it through the air cleaner and the engine for maximum power
Digital gas injection
44mm Mikuni throttle bodies are fitted with a sub-throttle valves that are controlled by the ECU to provide precise response and make DFI power and SPD smoother, with response similar to constant velocity carburetors
32-bit electronic control unit works with several setup to further enhance throttle response and gas control
A digital computer feeds the engine exactly the amount of gas it needs for cleaner emissions and maximum fuel
Digital Ignition
Digital Timing Advance enhances low-and mid-range power
Four individual spark plug mounted ignition coils fire each spark plug independently the optimal timing for that cylinder at that time to achieve
ECU has a starting speed control system for easier starting and warm-up
Radial Pump Clutch Master Cylinder
Hydraulic clutch master cylinder has a radial-pump clutch for smooth and precise clutch engagement

Evolved from the ZX-12R, the frame is a hollow aluminum box that arches over the engine from the steering head to the swing arm pivot. It is narrow, powerful, sleek and very light
motor is securely mounted to the monocoque s increase torsional stiffness. Plus using the engine as a stressed frame member decreases the frame s weight by approximately four pounds
engine positioned forward in the frame, wheelbase and front / rear weight balance were carefully designed to achieve high stability and responsive handling SPD
Huge head pipe casting contributes to frame rigidity
The monocoque section houses the air box and air filter in a space-saving design that actually simplifies air cleaner maintenance. Two screws hold a plate on the left side of the frame that allows air cleaner access
The battery is also located in the frame and has simple access through the back of the frame
The steering head and swing arm pivot areas are cast aluminum for superior strength and stiffness
Inverted 43mm Cartridge Type Front Fork
Damping rates offer stiff initial action against the forward end dive when braking
Stepless damping adjustment improves suspension performance
The ZX-14 frame s pattern is every bit the equal of the power. An improved version of Kawasaki’s unique aluminum monocoque design frame is lightweight and very strong. By using this frame technology, engineers were able to focus on delivering a slim, short deck.
