Get back to basics on the ZZR600. It’s a comfortable, affordable and sweet-handling middleweight with Ninja heritage all its own, including a responsive 599cc In-Line Four engine, a pressed-aluminum perimeter frame, protective bodywork and adjustable suspension. So bring on the winding roads. That’s Good Times™ country.

The 2003 Kawasaki NINJA® ZZR600 motorcycle allows sporting adventurers to have their cake and eat it too. Formerly named the NINJA® ZX-6 sportbike, the ZZR600 offers the best of both the sportbike and touring worlds. On one hand, it provides plenty of sportbike performance, but on the other, the ZZR600 offers a comfortable riding position and an affordable price. While the ZZR600 engine performs in a civilized manner, it’s also capable of AMA 600cc Supersport performance. Combined with a low seat height, spacious cockpit and wide power spread, the ZZR600 is a practical, all-around motorcycle.

Features:

• The ZZR600 is one of the best values in motorcycling today: Power, styling, economy and convenience.

• Ninja® credentials include: Powerful 599cc In-Line Four. Double Overhead Cams. 16 light- weight valves. Four semi-downdraft 36mm CVKD carburetors. Precise digital ignition.

• Twin Ram Air adds a performance boost by providing a large supply of cool dense air for the engine to breathe.

• The pressed-sheet aluminum perimeter frame delivers exceptional rigidity, precision, stability and control. The swingarm is constructed of sturdy box-section aluminum.

• The Bottom-Link UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system delivers smooth comfort and control.

• Roomy ergonomics and a broad, well-padded seat make day-long journeys pure fun.

• Gas-charged shock features 3-way adjustable rebound damping and adjustable spring preload.

• The 41mm conventional hydraulic front fork is adjustable for ride height and rebound damping.

• Instrumentation includes fuel and temperature gauges, warning lamps, push-to-cancel turn signals and a digital clock.
