USA get red ZX-10R. They can keep it.
By Ben Cope on 11/10/2011 11:42:47
Woaah, my eyes!
I'm really not sure about the colour scheme on this 10R. It's a US-spec machine and we all know the Yanks are a bit special. I can't see Kawasaki Europe bringing this one in, but then you never know..What do you think to it? Dennis the Menance has

By Bertie Simmonds on 20/10/2010 10:03:37
The average road bike does a bit of everything. But there are machines in the biking world designed to do one job only. Pure specialists if you will. These are the bikes...

How Ninjas took over the world. From GPZ900 to ZX-10R
By Roland Brown on 10/05/2010 16:58:26
The original GPZ900R of 1984 sired a long and illustrious family of Ninjas that are a huge part of motorcycling today. From the mental ZX-10R to the blistering ZZ-R1400, none of them would have existed without the GPZ900 25 years ago
. It outlasted both the 1986-model GPZ1000RX (more powerful but less agile and £500 more expensive) and the 137bhp ZX-10 that arrived two years later.Click next to continue

Kawasaki's flagship sportsbike has a few tricks up its sleeve
. That almost warrants sticking a 'Prius' badge on the tailpiece.Anti-wheelie won't stop you hoisting the frontWhen I first heard the ZX-10R had anti-wheelie, I thought it was the start of the end. If you crack the throttle open in 1st gear, the front will lift

By Jon Urry on 21/10/2008 15:22:43
Some secondhand bikes have slipped through the insurance net and can be bought and insured for less than half the price of a new supersport machine. We grabbed a 22 year-old student and found the most ridiculous insurance deals on these four
forced to offer subsidised insurance deals to entice customers towards their flagship models.Which is all very well and good until the renewal notice drops onto the doorstep. To insure a 1,000cc bike on the road will often cost twice the amount of your

Road Test: CBR1000RR v ZX-10R v GSX-R1000K6 v R1
By Jon Urry on 18/05/2008 16:53:33
1000cc sports bikes go ballistic to Majorca. Does the water taste like what it oughta?
'd approached first the R1, then the GSX-R1000... not a chance of securing it to either (although somehow Tim managed it with his GSX-R1000 last year), so I tried the Blade. Bungee points and fantastic pillion pegs with cut-outs for bungee hooks made it easy
