2008 Ninja ZX-14R

KAWASAKI’S FORMIDABLE FLAGSHIP, THE 2008 NINJA® ZX™-14 FINE-TUNED FOR EXTRA FIREPOWER

Conquering the challenging Euro-III regulations is admirable, but Kawasaki took it to the next level on the ZX-14 with changes to its 1352cc engine which improve the power characteristics while meeting noise regulations. The injection system was first to receive attention in an effort to boost peak power, give a more linear mid-range and stronger low end torque with the same user-friendly personality. The fine-atomizing fuel injectors had their lateral spray angle increased from 15 to 20 degrees to disperse the atomized fuel over a wider area and the intake porting was revised to provide optimum flow characteristics.
