Back in October 2018, KAWASAKI ZX-6R pre-booking was announced. Today the motorcycle has been officially launched in India. Ninja ZX-6R supersport brings together superior performance and the excitement of riding across terrains.
Bookings had opened last year for a token amount of Rs 1.5 lakhs which closed on 30th November while future lots are set to be decided on the basis of response to pre bookings. Ninja ZX-6R features KIBS (Kawasaki Intelligent anti-lock Brake System), KTRC (Kawasaki Traction Control), Twin LED headlamps, LED taillight, KQS (Kawasaki Quick Shifter) and a sporty appeal.
The instrument cluster features a fuel gauge and remaining range function, large analogue tachometer, warning lamps, gear position indicator, and multi-function LCD screen. Bridgestone BATTLAX HYPERSPORT S22 sports tyres facilitate lighter handling, and superior grip in dry and wet conditions.
