My experience with this bike has been nothing short of impressive. The 399cc inline-four engine, capable of revving up to 16,000 RPM, delivers a punchy performance that is both exhilarating on the track and manageable on the road. The up-and-down quickshifter and assistslipper clutch make gear shifts seamless, while the three-stage traction control provides the necessary safety net for aggressive riding. The suspension, though not fully adjustable on the front, is remarkably well-tuned, offering a confident and stable ride even in challenging conditions. Whether youre a seasoned track rider or a beginner looking to hone your skills, the ZX-4RRs balance of power, handling, and features makes it an excellent choice.

Mileage

Monday, 18 November 2024 12:32 PM The mileage of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR in India is not its strongest suit, but it is reasonable given its performance-oriented nature.

On the track, where the bike is pushed to its limits, the mileage can drop further. However, for enthusiasts who prioritize performance over fuel economy, the ZX-4RRs mileage is a fair trade-off for the exhilarating ride it offers.
