Vehicle Description It's gotta be ugly competing against the ZX™-14 year after year. When it arrived on the big-bore sportbike stage in 2006, the big Ninja® blew everyone's minds – owners, journalists and competitors – with its incredible thrust, sport-tourer comfort, agile handling and aerodynamic full-coverage bodywork. Continuous refinement has kept the 14 a step ahead of the competition, all while filling enthusiasts' face shields with wild, ear-to-ear grins.New for 2012 • Massively more powerful 1,441cc inline-four engine features a 4mm longer stroke, reworked cylinder head assembly, polished ports and lighter, stronger pistons for more power across the rev range • KTRC traction-control system features three different modes for varying conditions and is controlled by a handy switch assembly on the left handlebar • All-new slipper clutch assembly controls rear-wheel torque effects while braking and downshifting • All-new exhaust system features tapered and reshaped head pipes and an all-new muffler assembly for low noise and emissions • Redesigned aluminum monocoque frame is narrow, strong and rigid • All-new swingarm assembly is longer and features strengthening gussets to cope with the engine's newfound power • Transmission gears are more durable thanks to new temperature and surface treatments • All-new bodywork package builds upon the slick aesthetic image of the previous machine, includes a rear seat cowl and adds better air management to the mix for improved rider and passenger comfort • All-new 10-spoke wheels are more than 3 pounds lighter in total than the previous machine's units; this reduces unsprung weight, which aids handling and maneuverability • New disc material and pads improve the 14R's radial-mount braking system • Revised suspension settings front and rear add wheel control and compliance to an already plush ride • Higher overall finish quality than before, including hidden bodywork fastenersNew 1,441cc Four-Cylinder Liquid-Cooled DOHC Engine • Longer-stroke design, revised (and ported) cylinder heads, lighter pistons, higher compression and more radical camshafts provide more torque and power throughout the rev range • Piston jet system sprays a continuous stream of cooling lubrication to the underside of each piston for cooler running temperatures, more constant power production and better durability • Stronger cam chain and tensioning system offers a higher degree of durability at stratospheric rpm levels • Crankshaft main journals are 2mm thicker (now 40mm) for added durability • More durable temperature and surface treatments allow the transmission gears to better harness the new engine's prodigious power production • Chrome composite-plated aluminum cylinder bores are lightweight, durable, and quickly carry heat away from the combustion chamber and piston for supreme durability at high power outputs • Newly designed engine is compact and narrow, which allows the rest of the machine to be smaller, lighter and more nimble • Low mechanical noise via special piston profile and urethane insulation sheet on the inside of the magnesium chain coverRevised High-Flow Exhaust System • All-new header assembly has tapered-diameter pipes for optimal power production and power delivery characteristics • Newly designed mufflers offer lower noise emissions and, due to the dual catalyzers, are cleaner than before • Airflow into the exhaust from the large secondary air ports in the cylinder head and head cover, plus a third honeycomb catalyzer in the collector, help meet strict Euro III emissions standards • Internal silencer construction minimizes impact of emissions regulations while maintaining impressive top-end powerGear-Driven Dual Engine Balancers • Revised balance weights keep the newly dimensioned engine (more stroke) in ideal balance, resulting in improved comfort for riders and passengers • Already in perfect primary balance, the 14R's engine design features dual secondary balancers that virtually eliminate unwanted vi |
