The ZX-4R packs a genuine high-revving inline-four into a chassis compact enough to feel properly nimble. It's built around the kind of engine character that's increasingly rare in this class — one that rewards riding it right to the redline — wrapped in a package that stays composed and easy to place through corners rather than intimidating.
The new 399 cc liquid-cooled DOHC In-Line Four engine pushes technological boundaries to comfortably top the 400cc class. Developed with know-how gained from other Ninja ZX models, the high-performance engine offers class-leading power and a rev-range that extends beyond 15,000 rpm.
Another unusual feature for a small-capacity bike is the presence of twin 290mm disc brakes at the front, which are bitten down on by beefy Nissin four-piston radial callipers, despite the fact that a master cylinder is is an axial unit.
The suspension is another area where the specifications of the ZX-4R variants differ. The standard ZX-4R has the aforementioned SFF-BP forks and horizontal back-link rear suspension, but the ZX-4R SE and ZX-4RR have preload adjustable front forks and a Showa BFRC-lite rear shock.
Unlike the rest of Kawasaki's 'ZX' sports bike lineup, the new ZX-4R features a "high tensile" steel trellis chassis.
All of this technology is managed by a 4.3-inch Bluetooth-compatible colour TFT dash that includes turn-by-turn navigation and notification alerts. A separate Track layout on the dash displays only the gear position indicator, lap timer, and revs above 10,000rpm.
