In 2017, Kawasaki launched the Ninja ZX-14R ABS SE, an ultra-powerful motorcycle powered by a massive 1,441cc engine and fitted with advanced electronics, all incorporated in an innovative monocoque frame with stunning bodywork design that put the bike at the top of its class.
For 2017, the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R ABS SE returned with Brembo brakes, Kawasaki Traction Control (KTRC) system, and a new color scheme such as the Metallic Spark Black with Golden Blazed Green.
The Kawasaki Traction Control (KTRC) system offered three riding modes where mode one and two calculated when traction conditions were about to become unfavorable and acted before any wheel slippage, while mode three featured higher sensitivity and controlled ignition timing, fuel, and air for ultra-smooth operation.
Also, the bike featured a wind tunnel-designed bodywork with an aggressive front cowl with a unique four-headlight design, a standard single seat cover, an aggressive tail design, and fairings that improved radiator air flow combined with a heat guard mounted on the exhaust pipe that reduced heat reaching to the rider.
As for power, the 2017 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14R ABS SE model had its heartbeat set by a 1,441cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 200 hp with a peak at 10,500 rpm and 154 Nm (113 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,500 rpm.
