The 2020 Ninja ZX-10R draws power from the same 998 cc in-line four motor with 200 bhp on tap

The gold highlights on the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R extend to the fairing, fuel tank and section, all of which adds a nice contrast to the existing colour scheme. Incidentally, the Japanese manufacturer is offering the same colours on the 2020 Ninja 400 as well. Power on the ZX-10R continues to come from a 998 cc in-line four-cylinder engine that belts out 200.2 bhp at 13,500 rpm, which can be further boosted to 210 bhp with a RAM air intake. Peak torque stands at 114.9 Nm that is available at 11,200 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox with a quick shifter. The ZX-10R uses an Ohlins electronic steering damper, along with a fully-adjustable Showa suspension setup and dual Brembo M50 monobloc calipers.

Closely based on the WSBK championship winning bike, the 2020 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is loaded on electronic aids that includes the Sport-Kawasaki Traction Control, launch control, cornering management function, three riding modes, six-axis IMU, engine brake control, ABS, and more. The India-spec ZX-10R continues to be offered in the single-seater version as standard. The bike competes against the likes of the Ducati Panigale V4, Suzuki GSX-R1000, Honda CBR-1000RR, Yamaha YZF-R1, BMW S 1000 RR and the Aprilia RSV4 RR in its segment.

While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
