KAWASAKI Ninja ZX-6R (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, Kawasaki launched the Ninja ZX-6R, a middleweight motorcycle that featured all the redesigned elements from the 2013 model, which included the larger displacement engine with more power and torque, a new frame, a new front, and side fairings, a new dash, a three-mode Kawasaki Traction Control (K-TRC) system, and Kawasaki Intelligent anti-lock Brake System (KIBS) available as an option.

Onto the lightweight frame, the bike featured a front fairing with a sharp design that offered an aggressive appearance, large fairing openings that increased airflow and heat dissipation, a front fender with great aerodynamic capabilities, while the lower fairing, rear cowl, and blacked-out panels offered a compact and lightweight appearance.

The new three-mode Kawasaki Traction Control (K-TRC) system featured three performance mods, with mode one offering maximum racetrack performance, mode two offering sporty street performance, and mode three eliminated wheel spin on slippery surfaces, but also the ability to switch the system off.

As for power, the 2014 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R took its thrust from a 636cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled digital fuel-injected engine that delivered an output power of 131 hp with a peak at 13,500 rpm and 71 Nm (52 lb-ft) of torque available at 11,500 rpm.

In addition, the bike was available with genuine Kawasaki accessories such as an adjustable Ohlins steering damper, a taller bubble windscreen, frame sliders, engine guards, and a stylish color-matched seat cowl.
