Is Kawasaki Zx10-RR a Zx10-R on steroids?😱

What's up guys!! Revminister here!!

And today I am talking about the all new 2017 Kawasaki Zx10-RR.

What Kawasaki has done is that they have taken a bike which is already fantastic and have made it even better!! So basically the Zx10-RR is a Zx10-R on steroids.

So without any further ado, lets see what that extra R really means?


The paint scheme looks familiar?
Yes! The RR comes in the winter testing paint scheme, which looks absolutely awesome on it. The extra R means that the bike is racier then the normal Zx10-R. And also gets some bits and pieces which the Zx10-R doesn't have! Stuff like the Marchesini forged rims which are lighter and help the bike to turn faster.


The Zx10-R only had the M50 calipers and it missed the steel braided lines which are here now. The Zx10-RR varient gets steel braided lines which allow the bike to stop faster.


It also gets the Kawasaki quick shifter as standard. Which allows you the down shift without the clutch. And because this is a racier version you don't get rear seat and rear foot pegs.

To keep up the racing spirit you get super sticky Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tires. Which allow you to exploit the full potential of the bike.


The engine of the 2016 Zx10-R has been tuned so that it can accommodate the height of the new and lighter cam shaft. Also the engine casing on RR is a bit more rigid.

Suspension wise there is no big difference! You still have the Showa balance free forks up front and a monoshock at the rear. The only change is that the front is now a bit soft and the rear is stiffened up.


And the best part is that all these mods come at a price of 2 lakhs more than the standard Zx10-R. Giving the RR a price tag of around 21.9 lakhs ex-Showroom Delhi.
Well if you ask me it's still the best value for money liter class bike available in India!

These were the first impressions of the Zx10-RR.
