Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia RS 457 2023

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR 2024

The mere fact that the Kawa Ninja ZX-4RR with its high-revving Inline four-cylinder engine in bonsai format has no real competition makes it absolutely unique. The engine is also the absolute flagship, with a rev limit at 16,000 touring you'll be addicted to wind out a gear! The suspension, brakes and electronics are of a high height, but what is more surprising is that, despite all the sportiness, the bike is still very suitable for everyday use - the seating position is not as radical as on other supersports bikes.
