Ninja ZX-14R
The Ninja ZX-14R's 1,441cc inline-four produces massive torque from idle to redline with genuine 200 hp capability — a hypersport engineered for straight-line speed confidence rather than corner-carving agility. Low-speed handling at 591 lb demands respect; this is a focused performance machine for experienced riders.
