Full Fairing Ninja Design
The Ninja 1000's well integrated full fairing styling offers a good indication
of the sporty character. The sensuous styling is both audacious and subtle.
The agressive design gives the Ninja 1000 an appearance that is instanly
recognisable as a Kawasaki, yet ensures it retains its own distinct identity
when lined up next to the Ninja family.
The fairing flair at the rear keeping hot air away from the rider's legs
Front turn signals mount directly to the fairings
Super sport style front fender contribute to aerodynamics and looks
The leading edges of the fairings feature a slat-style design that
directs the wind around the bike
Power and Control
Sporty instrument panel
Cool Air System
A choice of Full Power or Low Modes allow the
rider to set the power delivery to suit the
condition and riding style.
Sporty instrument panel features a large
analogue tachometer complemented by a
multi-function LCD screen.
Low Power mode limits the output to 70% of Full
Power and uses a milder throttle response.
The KTRC and power modes are shown on the
panel and controlled from a switch on the left
grip.
With the airbox nestled between the frame
beams, intake air can be affected by engine
heat. The Cool Air system routes cool air to the
airbox from ducts at the front of the side fairings,
minimising performance loss due to heated
intake air.
Super-sport Seduction
Riding excitement is about more than just performance figures. Riding
impact comes from the sensations the rider feels. Whether twisting the
throttle to enjoy the engine's superb response and strong acceleration, or
flicking the quick-steering and light handling package into a corner and
feeling the road through the tyres and chassis like and extension of your
own body.
The strong torque and mid-range hit of the previous Ninja 1000
remains along with amazing throttle response
Liquid coooled, DOHC, 16 Valve, 1043cm3 In-line four cylinder
engine
Good over-rev characteristics mean the power does not drop off
suddenly at high rpm
Power delivery is quite linear, but the engine spins up noticeably
faster from around 7,000 rpm onwards
Silky smooth response from mid-high range rpm ensures excellent
driveability
Assist and Slipper Clutch added for the 2016 Model
Enhanced Intake Note
Designed specifically so that the acceleration could be enjoyed aurally as
well as physically, the carefully crafted auditory note of the intake is a key
component of the street riding exhiliration offered by the Ninja 1000.
Assist and Slipper Clutch
3-Mode KTRC (Kawasaki TRaction
Control)
Riders can choose from three modes. Mode 1
and 2 prioritise maximum foward accesleration.
Mode 3 provides rider reassurance by
facilitating smooth riding on slippery surfaces.
Riders may also elect to turn the system off.
Conditions are confirmed every 5 milliseconds,
and control via ignition timing enables
extremely quick reaction.
Exhaust System
Assist and Slipper Clutch was developed based
on feedback from racing activities. The clutch
uses two types of cams (an assist cam and a
slipper cam), offering two new functions not
available on the standard clutch of the previous
model. When the engine is operating at normal
rpm the assist cam functions as a self-servo
mechanism, pulling the clutch hub and
operating plate together to compress the clutch
plates. This allows the total clutch spring load to
be reduced, resulting in a lighter clutch lever
pull when operating the clutch. Fewer (3, vs 5
on the previous model) clutch springs translate
to a 30% lighter clutch lever feel.
The exhaust system features a
4-into-2-pre-chamber-into-2 layout. Silencer
endcaps create a quad style image. The
endcap design with large exhaust exits add to
the sporty look of the Ninja 1000.
Joint pipes linking the exhaust headers
contribute to increased feeling and response at
all rpm.
Main and pre-catalysers ensure the emissions
are clean.
Front Suspension
Rear Suspension
ABS Front and Rear Brakes
The direct handling of the Ninja 1000 can be
largely attributed to the suspension settings. the
bike responds quickly to rider input and soaks
up bumps and ruts.
The rear shock features rebound and preload
adjustablity.
The Ninja 1000 features Tokico monobloc
calipers. Achieving the ideal braking
characteristics required a redefinition of what
Kawasaki?s ?ideal? braking was to be. Where
the previous model offered very linear brake
power application, the brakes on the Ninja 1000
have a firm initial touch, followed by a controlled
increase in brake force.
41mm inverted front forks feature stepless
compression and rebound damping and spring
preloas adjustability.
Load the bike up with a pillion and luggage and
then easily adjust the rear suspesion via the
remote adjuster.
The rear shock runs a 95 N/mm standard spring
rate for responsive handling.
300mm twin front brake petal discs are
gripped by 4-piston radial mounted
monobloc calipers.
The rear brake features a single piston,
pin-slide caliper gripping a 250mm petal
disc.
Everyday Versatility
With a relaxed riding position that can accommodate everything from city
riding to touring to sport riding, and numerous bike-life-enhancing features,
the Ninja 1000 complements its street riding excitement with a depth not
available on Super-Naked or supersport models.
Touring and two-up potential is increased thanks to the genuine luggage
accessories, comfortable seats and easy adjustability. The Ninja 1000's
relaxed riding position is designed to accomodate everything from city
riding to touring to sport riding. This blend of comfort and control allows the
rider to enjoy a variety of riding situations.
The mirrors and the separate, raised handlebars contribute to the
sporty and comfortable riding position.
Sculpted aluminum passenger grips and a comfortable seat ensure
your pillion will be comfortable for a day of riding.
The front and the rear foot pegs are rubber coated for comfort and
grip.
