Kawasaki Parts

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Seat-pegs-bar relationship was adjusted slightly, with the handlebars moved closer to the rider and turned in slightly for a more intuitive riding position

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Fuel tank profile is more flared around its top, similar to the ZX-10R, providing a larger contact patch which contributes to improved rider feedback

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Slim, waist on fuel tank makes it easy for the rider to grip the tank with his knees or to hang off in turns

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Front to back, the new seat is shorter, allowing the rider to shift his body farther back on the rear seat step, helping to reduce rider fatigue

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Steeper rake angle quickens steering response and enhances communication from the front tire

Ergonomics and chassis feedback – Relocating the rear brake master cylinder reservoir forward of the swingarm mount frees up space around the footpeg, enabling a reduction of parts and contributing to weight savings

Lower seat height – New rear sub-frame is narrower, making it easier to reach the ground

Lower seat height – Front of seat is narrower and seat height is approximately 10mm lower, for a slimmer riding position and a shorter reach to the pavement

Advanced suspension – ZX-6R features the first production-use of Showa’s new Big Piston Front fork (BPF) design
