OFFICIAL: Kawasaki to Launch New Motorcycle on 4th September

Ninja ZX 10R
Earlier this month reports had emerged concerning Kawasaki. The rumor was that the Japanese performance motorcycle maker was considering introducing its liter class motorcycles in India, namely Ninja ZX10R and ZX14R. Here is the good news. The rumor will most definitely turn to reality as soon as September 4th.
Kawasaki has revealed that it has a launch lined up for September 4th, which is a Wednesday. However, what that launch will be is has not been revealed. But we can be sure we'll get either the Ninja ZX10R or better still, both bikes. But the former seems more likely. Kawasaki is not likely to hurry through such a major launch. The Ninja ZX14R is more likely to be introduced after a gap.
The Ninja ZX-10R is company’s flagship liter class motorcycle which pumps out a massive 200.1PS  from its 998cc motor (and 209.9PS with RAM Air) and a maximum torque of 112Nm. The ZX-10R competes with the Honda Fireblade, Yamaha R1, BMW S1000RR etc internationally. It comes with some fantastic features and an optional ABS. We expect it to be priced close to the 15 Lakh price bracket.

Since both bikes will come via the route of CBU their price tags (anywhere between INR 15 lakhs to 20 lakhs) will limit their sales, especially considering the weakening Rupee. They are still likely to cost less than their rivals from other brands which is good. Stay tuned.
