Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R 2024 Experiences and Expert Review
Der Horvath
The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R impresses with a powerful 636 cubic centimetres engine and dynamic handling, making it a thoroughly potent and sportily tuned machine. The well-functioning quickshifter and clear display contribute to a positive riding experience. However, the aggressive riding position significantly compromises comfort and the lack of a modern ride-by-wire system prevents the use of a blipper - making the ZX-6R look outdated compared to competitor models. Overall, it is an excellent choice for riders with sporting ambitions, but offers room for improvement in terms of comfort and modern features.

FAQ tires Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R

For naked bikes, sports tourers but also sports motorcycles. High mileage is very important, as is wet grip. The focus is on touring suitability and less on sportiness.

Sporty tires for the road that also work well on a track day. Some compromises in the rain on the road or in the heat on the track.
