Kawasaki Ninja ZX-7R

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Derived from the more race-oriented ZXR-750, the ZX-7R was Kawasaki's attempt to make a "Race Replica" superbike available to the motorcycling public.

The motorcycle is a 749 cc in-line four cylinder four-stroke capable in standard form of speeds of up to 171 mph (277 km/h). Braking and suspension have been influenced by technology developed on the race tracks and have resulted in a motorcycle of prodigious stability and reliability. The basic model has remained unchanged for eight years from its inception to its last production run in 2003.

The ZX-7RR differs from the road model somewhat, having an adjustable head-stock angle, alloy tank, swing arm and larger capacity flat-slide carburetors. It also has a close ratio gear-box fitted as standard and different front calipers.
