Being a 2014 ZX10-R rider myself, I've been contemplating these past few weeks on whether an upgrade to the 2016 is worth it or not. Every bike DEFINITELY has it flaws but apparently after seeing a number of reviews over KZfaq, none talked about the con side of the bike. Kudos to you guys for commenting on it. As my local Kawasaki dealer (Singapore) does not allow people to test ride on it, reviews like these are the next best thing to deciding on upgrading/purchasing this bike. It is VITAL to talk about both sides of the coin so keep doing what you guys have been doing!! As mentioned in the video, you guys will be compiling and competing against the rest of the superbikes. Anticipating the review soon!

+Daniel Lin I think the new ZX10R is a fair step up from the older one for being easier to ride. Motor-wise there isn't much in it, although the changes to the motor are a big part of what have made the new bike more capable for what they do to rotating mass affecting the bike's ease of use.

Reading through the comment section I couldn't help but noticed how much "butthurt" R1 riders get from this new beast ZX-10R lol. R1 is a great bike, don't get me wrong. But with that kinda appearance the bike offers and those bs recalls. I gotta have to say NO to it. Give this new 10R a filter, full system and reflash that ECU then it's game over for the S1000RR. Better looking than the new R1. Way more reliable than that M-junk S1000RR. It's a clear winner already. Let's take a moment and bow down to this new king of SuperBike: Ninja ZX-10R.

I'm the happy owner of a 2016 ZX-10R in the Philippines. Is it the best superbike on the market? Maybe, maybe not, but that doesn't matter because it's the best value for money option by a mile in this country. Local prices converted to USD: Yamaha R1 - $21,275; BMW S1000RR - $27,660; Ducati 1299 Panigale S - $41,900; Kawasaki ZX-10R KRT - $17,445. Needless to say, it's an easy decision unless you've got money burning a hole in your pocket.

I don't mind the need to get to the high rpms to get the super pulls because the bike will live on the street most of the time. But the "herky jerky" throttle control seems to be a problem. Wonder if this is an easy software fix, and if the fix is done by Kawasaki as opposed to aftermarket. Surprising that I haven't heard this mentioned before in other people's reviews.

Great review, guys. No bs plugs or fanboyism. Seems like a pretty capable machine, though. I'm curious as to what the lap times for this look like compared the the rest of the 2016 1000ccs. I'd imagine they'll have some ECU updates for it in the next bit to adjust the throttle issues. My Panigale was a bit laggy back when I bought it but the latest software totally got rid of the lag and jerkiness rolling it on in corners. I could easily mistake it for a cable now.
@swish1onu8 жыл бұрын
Here are my issues with reviews... you can't "complain" about features that are adjustable... if it rides too soft, or you don't feel confident in corners, these are things that can be remedied with a quick alteration in setting or new set of tires... You have issue with the brakes, but keep in mind this is a street bike first and foremost since this is what most riders will be using it for... So to have brakes that are too "strong" may not be the best when sudden emergency braking is more likely in a commuter situation, and if your brakes are too sensitive, your more likely to take a spill after grabbing too much brake.
