Perhaps the ultimate high-tech superbike on the planet at the moment, the 2017 Kawasaki ZX-10R will be updated with a new colour for the coming year. Clad in Pearl Blizzard White/ Metallic Raw Flat Titanium, the new colours also carry some minor changes in the graphics.

Also changed is the colour for the gas cylinder on the Showa Balance Free Fork (BFF), which sports a shade of anodised green. The current Kawasaki ZX-10R comes in Lime Green/Ebony KRT Replica, which are pretty much its official racing team’s colours. The new colour is likely to make its appearance in Malaysia next year.

The Kawasaki ZX-10R comes with a 998 cc, four-cylinder, DOHC, 16-valve, liquid-cooled power plant that produces 197 hp as standard, with 204 hp kicking in with Ram-Air. Closely developed with Kawasaki’s World Superbike team, the ZX-10R comes with Sport-Kawasaki Traction Control (S-KTRC), Kawasaki Intelligent Braking (KIBS) and a host of electronic riding aids.

Outgoing for 2017 will be the Winter Test version of the ZX-10R, which came in a very attractive shade of matte-black. The 2016 Kawasaki ZX-10R retails in Malaysia for RM104,859 including GST, excluding registration, road-tax and insurance.
