presentation of the 1400 ZZR Performance 2018
she's free at last. And now she can express herself without restraint. The Ninja vessel can sing and run faster than the wind. The ZZR 1400 is an agent provocateur, a channeler of the forbidden, a demonic machine more akin to a photon-powered heavy cruiser than a leisure motorcycle. Its big asset is its enormous, torque-loaded 4-cylinder engine, with a good 200 horsepower as a warning. Its big problem, however, is its enormous exhaust pipes, which are heavy, not exactly discreet, and of a... gamelike design. Fortunately, for some years now, there has been a special edition of the ZZR: the Performance version.
this name means several things:
- You'll be able to assert your selfish side with the included seat cover, offering more style and concealing the passenger seat.
- You'll have fewer broken cervical vertebrae, as the Kawa is equipped with a curved bubble that reduces wind pressure and improves aerodynamics.
- With an Akrapovic signature on each side, the 1441 cm3 block will breathe easier and raise its vocals. Two titanium silencers with carbon end caps are fitted on either side of the unfortunate rear gumshoe. Each is fitted with a double outlet to great effect.
Although the weight and performance gains are not indicated, you can be sure that the melody of the revs will be far more exhilarating than the original muffled blast. And a few kilos less won't hurt anyone.
- To complete the package, the tank is equipped with semi-transparent adhesive knee protectors.
