Detial View Kawasaki ZX-10R 2010
The Kawasaki ZX-14 is the flagship of Kawasaki motorcycles. The ZX-14 is the most powerful Kawasaki ever produced, and was once the fastest production motorcycle in the world. Kawasaki claims the new version is "the quickest and most powerful production motorcycle". Since the introduction of the ZX-14 in 2006, this monster has dominated open-class sportbike, and the race technology has been handed down to the street-legal version nicely. Pure power is synonymous with the ZX-14, but this beast is just plain awesome in so many other ways. The ZX-14's 1352CC, four-cylinder, DOHC engine makes incredible torque and power while this bike still handles great, not exactly a small feat of engineering!
The Kawasaki was my early favourite. It steers beautifully, holds a line, is agile in the chicanes and has a storming amount of power. If we had left all the bikes on standard suspension settings, there's a good chance the Kawasaki could have taken the victory in this track test.
All the other bikes here are set up to be stable and reassuring on the road, with relatively soft set-ups and slow steering. It's not until you adjust them - speed up the steering and stiffen them up that they become useful on the track.

Marco Melandri suggested that the German manufacturer Hoely create this set of MotoGP for the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R, because the racer is absolutely sure that the original motorcycle can be easily turned into a replica of the MotoGP, it is only to add graphic design.
We can not agree with the Italian racer MotoGP, and the Germans did very wisely followed his advice, because a motorcycle is like a machine: you buy it from the ground up, ride it a couple of months, and then you start to think about how to improve it. But even better than the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R, but to add him to design a racing bike?
