2011 ZX-10R in testing at Autopolis

Tom Sykes tests the 2011 ZX-10R - again

Tweet
Posted: 25 August 2010
by Visordown News


KAWASAKI JAPAN have been at it again, drip-feeding us more morsels of the company's much-anticipated 2011 ZX-10R superbike.

The machine, rumoured to produce around 200bhp, underwent shakedown tests at the Japanese circuit in the hands of World Superbike men Tom Sykes and Akira Yanagawa.

See our 2011 ZX-10R gallery.

Let's hope all Kawasaki's marketing tactics pay off in the end result.

For sure! Cross-plane crank was left on the shelf then. Stick to what they know...

Strange place to test - Autopolis is a long way above sea level - very short of oxygen. Only any use as a pre-Kyalami test venue

Kawasaki never can get the front lights to look right, so that is what puts me off their bikes. I just hope this time they can make a killer looking front end.
