2013 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 Launched–Price, Features, Pictures and Details

Comfort sport bikes is one of the emerging classes as not all riders want a track oriented machine, but rather a motorcycle which could do well on the streets that too with comfort. In 2010, when Kawasaki first brought the Ninja 1000, it was an immediate success. Complete attention was given to bike majorly because of the fact that it was based on the Z1000. Essentially it was a Z1000, with a full sportbike fairing. From the engine to the frame, all was borrowed from the Z1000.

Lately, the company has revealed the 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS for US market. As it has been with its previous version, the 2013 Ninja 1000 delivers a mix of power, handling, looks, technology and rideability. The bike offers all round performance which is hard to overlook.
