This bike has an open design which helps dissipate heat. The bike is made of high tensile steel to balance flexibility and stiffness in the best way. With a mirror coating on the tank, fairing and seat, the bike looks stylish and attractive, showing a brilliant metallic effect in the sun and a deep 3D appearance in the shade. The bike has the iconic Kawasaki River Mark on the front cowl. With angled winglets, the bike is designed for smooth airflow. The lower wings of the bike are made of carbon fibre so you can speed up with an exceptional performance. The upper cowl of the bike has a chin spoiler which helps in downforce generation.
An In-House Designed Supercharger
The bike is designed with a centrifugal type supercharger that has a high rpm performance. The supercharger of this bike is very efficient in compressing air and minimizing the amount of heat, so you don’t have to have a heavy intercooler on your bike. Matching the all new engine of the bike, the supercharger is highly efficient and can be operated over a variety of conditions. The highly precise and durable impeller of the supercharger is made of forged alluminium, and spins at a speed that is 9.2 times the speed of the crankshaft. So, you can reach a speed of 130,000 rpm.
The Planetary Gear
The planetary gear of the bike is designed with technology from KHI’s aerospace company and transfers power in a compact and efficient way. Running off power from the crankshaft, it drives the impeller to a high rpm.
The All New 998cc In-Line Four Cylinder Engine
The all new engine of this bike is designed to endure even extreme stress, with lightweight and strong pistons that can withstand even very high temperature. The engine has a precision honed combustion chamber with a flat piston crown that helps prevent engine shock.
Motogp Style Dog Ring Transmission
This bike is designed with a dog ring transmission that you normally find in high performance racing machines to let you enjoy effortless short lifts. You can now enjoy seamless acceleration with quick upshifts from the contactless quick shifter. You can also enjoy a smooth actuation with the high quality hydraulic clutch that features Brembo components.
The Fully Adjustable KYB Racing Suspension
The bike is designed with the KYM AOS -II (AIR-Oil-Separate) cartridge fork that gives you a silky smooth initial action. With the fully adjustable KYB shock, you can now enjoy incredible performance.
Brembo Brakes
The Brembo brakes of the bike have been carefully designed to give you an immediate braking response.
Cast Aluminium Wheels
The cast alluminium wheels of the bike are designed with five spokes for high power performance and optimum rigidity.
Advanced Electronics
The bike is designed with the enhanced version of the Kawasaki Traction Control to prevent your wheels from slipping. The traction control has three modes. While the first two are designed for maximum acceleration and performance, the third is mainly used for slippery conditions. Apart from this, the bike also includes the Kawasaki Launch Control Mode for unmatchable acceleration from a stop. A rider can now launch from a stop even with the throttle held wide open. The Ohlins Electronic Steering Damper lessens the damping at lower speed and increases it when you ride at high speeds.
LED Illumination
The bike is designed with a full LED display with a lap timer, supercharger boost indicator, gear position indicator, coolant and intake air temperature that you can check.
