2016 Kawasaki ZX-14R

Revisions for Kawasaki's high-performance sports tourer, including the adoption of Euro 4 engine regulations without sacrificing power

Kawasaki's ZX-14R has been given a mild update in 2016, with the rapid-fire 1441cc in-line four-cylinder engine now boasting Euro 4 compliance thanks to revised ECU and exhaust settings, and it now has the same Brembo M50 monobloc brakes as the supercharged H2R and 2016 model ZX-10R.

Despite moving to Euro 4 territory, Kawasaki still claims 200hp for the big-bore sportstourer.

Other features include an Ohlins TTX39 rear shock absorber and a new instrument cluster which has high-visibility dials and LCD displays using a dot-pattern background, plus there are black and white interchangeable displays for easy reading in both day and night.

There's three-mode traction control, with "modes and two to prioritise maximum forward acceleration".

Kawasaki Australia is yet to announce price or availability.
