Is Kawasaki Zx10-RR a Zx10-R on steroids?

What's up guys!! Revminister here!!


And today I am talking about the all new*2017 Kawasaki Zx10-RR.


What Kawasaki has done is that they have taken a bike which is already fantastic and have made it even better!! So basically the*Zx10-RR is a Zx10-R on steroids.


So without any further ado, lets see what that extra R really means?


The RR comes in the winter testing paint scheme, which looks absolutely awesome on it. The extra R means that the bike is racier then the normal Zx10-R. And also gets some bits and pieces which the Zx10-R doesn't have! Stuff like the Marchesini forged rims which are lighter and help the bike to turn faster.


The Zx10-R only had the*M50 calipers*and it missed the steel braided lines which are here now. The Zx10-RR varient gets*steel braided lines*which allow the bike to stop faster.


It also gets the*Kawasaki quick shifter*as standard. Which allows you the down shift without the clutch. And because this is a racier version you don't get rear seat and rear foot pegs.

To keep up the racing spirit you get super sticky*Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tires.*Which allow you to exploit the full potential of the*bike.


The engine of the 2016 Zx10-R has been tuned*so that it can accommodate the height of the new and*lighter cam shaft.*Also the engine casing on RR is a bit more rigid.


Suspension wise there is no big difference! You still have the*Showa balance free forks*up front and a monoshock at the rear. The only change is that the front is now a bit soft and the rear is stiffened up.


And the best part is that all these mods come at a price of 2 lakhs more than the standard Zx10-R. Giving the RR a price tag of around*21.9 lakhs ex-Showroom Delhi.

Well if you ask me it's still the best value for money liter class bike available in India!


These were the first impressions of the Zx10-RR.
