Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R SE 2018

The 2018 model year Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R SE is a motorbike for financially well-endowed motorbike connoisseurs who don't have much to do with chassis set-up, especially on the Nordschleife. The machine is mature, inspires confidence, rides reliably and is extremely fast. You can and must trust the electronic chassis without hesitation. Then riding the spooky chassis is a pleasure.
In the saddle, there is great confidence in a well-functioning package
Electronic chassis offers surprisingly great ride comfort even during brisk laps on the Nordschleife
Very good components at all corners and ends
Geometry, chassis and steering dampers simply fit really well
Powerful and rev-happy in the upper rev range
Long gearing with little pressure in the rev range requires more gear changes than one likes to make in the saddle of a 1000
information on the display is simply not large enough in hectic situations
overall impression appears high-quality but is no longer up-to-date.
