Kawasaki to launch ultra-sophisticated ZZR1400
By Andy Downes -
11 March 2011 16:42
Kawasaki will launch an ultra-sophisticated new version of the ZZR1400 which will take all of the latest electronic rider aids from the ZX-10R and bigger GTR1400 tourer.
The new ZZR1400 will get the advanced K-ACT ABS braking system and K-TRC traction control systems along with some engine work to boost the mid and low range power along with making it more refined.
You can read the full story in next week’s MCN on sale on March 16.

"engine work to boost the mid and low range power along with making it more refined"
Hummm they are going to add a 3 way power switch ..All the switch will do is speed up the opening rate of the flys . We allready have that , it's called a # 2 screw driver ..
ABS and traction controll = More weight ...

Too much sophisticated this-and-that on the 14 could make it harder to tune and sprint. Just give us a simple gutsy, powerful motor please.

Ya that earthquake is going to affect alot of things. alot of companys over here get electronic parts from japan could effect alot of big companys.
And back on topic glad I just bought my 2010 instead of waiting for the 2012 with that stuff I don't need and probably every bit of 15,000 price tag.
