2013 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R Preview, Pictures - Those interested in the medium Kawasaki racing will still be able to buy the remaining shares of 2012, but once they're gone, you'll either have to race against the big bikes 636 or switch to another brand. Kawasaki reps are not able to give an official answer about the future variants of 600cc, leaving us to speculate the door may still be open to legal competitors in the race.

But back to the new bike. A bump on the stroke from 42.5mm to 45.1mm account for the larger 37cc engine. Bore remains the same as last year's model at 67.0mm. Digital fuel injection using a 38mm Keihin throttle bodies, while both the intake and exhaust ports to get the size.

Intake Camshaft set for a longer duration, and both cams to get a ride up too. Connecting rods are shorter than the previous 1.5mm thick but have stems, which enable them to cope with the long throw crank. After this, the engine received updates strength-enhancing or reducing the friction-many.

Cam assists also increases the maximum torque capacity of the clutch, to help cope with the extra power of a larger engine, without gaining weight. Function sandals should be familiar by now to any sportbike fan, because it keeps the rear wheels from locking during downshifts jumping and aggressive.

Using the wheel-speed sensors KTRC, ECU monitors speed, brake caliper pressure, engine rpm, throttle position, clutch actuation and gear selection. The KiBS ABS ECU communicates with the engine ECU, and when it senses a potential lock-up situation told ABS unit to temporarily reduce brake line pressure. It does so while reducing pulsation in the lever during the intervention.

I was one of the lucky few have sampled the new motor with ergonomic screen model sitting on this morning before his debut in New York City today. It feels very similar to its predecessor, with the driver placed in a position such as advanced riders. The bar was not feeling very low and the stakes are not too high.
