2012 Kawasaki Z1000 Features and Benefits

Key Features

• 1,043cc inline-four with DFI produces a massive amount of torque
• Lightweight aluminum frame specifically designed for the Z1000
• Fully adjustable inverted front fork with settings designed for sporty performance
• Horizontal rear monoshock features stepless rebound damping and spring preload adjustability
• Radial-mounted four-piston front brake calipers and radial-pump front brake master cylinder combine with 300mm discs to provide superior stopping power
• Digital instrument panel tilts to accommodate different viewing angles
• Aggressive styling makes a bold fashion statement
DOHC, 6-valve, 043cc Engine

• Liquid-cooled inline-four offers substantial power at all rpm levels, roviding effortless acceleration in almost any situation
• Bore and stroke dimensions of 77.0 x 56.0mm offer the best possible balance of peak power and low
• and mid-range flexibility
• 38mm downdraft throttle bodies allow intake air to travel to the engine in the shortest possible distance
• Oval sub-throttles help keep the engine slim – a good thing since the throttle bodies are positioned between the rider’s knees
• Soft rev limiter provides good overrev character; power doesn’t drop off suddenly at high rpm
• The crankshaft is positioned low in the crankcase assembly to allow a longer stroke without adding engine height
• A secondary balancer, riven off a gear on the sixth web of the crankshaft, liminates excess vibration
Cool Air System

• The intake system routes cool air to the airbox from ducts above the radiator shrouds, inimizing performance loss due to heated intake air
• Positioning the ducts close to the rider allows the intake sound to be heard – and enjoyed – by the rider
• A resonator inside the airbox reduces noise at low rpm, nd enhances intake sound at high rpm
Exhaust System

• The exhaust system features a 4-into-2-pre-chamber-into-2 layout. Silencer end caps maintain the quad-style image
• Main and pre-catalyzers provide cleaner emissions
• Thanks to the under-engine pre-chamber, ilencer volume is reduced, nd silencer weight is low. Exhaust system offers excellent mass centralization and contributes to a low center of gravity
Fuel Tank• Slim-type fuel pump features an integral fuel gauge
• Fuel tank design and slim-type fuel pump minimize unused volume inside the tank; fuel capacity is 4.0 gallons
Aluminum Backbone Frame

• Aluminum backbone frame designed specifically for the Z1000 (and similar in concept to the Ninja® ZX™-10R’s) helps make the bike narrow and easy to grip with the knees for maximum rider comfort and feedback
• Lightweight and highly rigid, he frame uses the engine as a stressed member for a firm, lanted feeling and enhanced stability
• Frame is tuned to transmit the ideal level of engine feedback directly to the rider
• The frame’s five-piece construction consists of steering stem, eft and right main frames, nd two cross pieces. The two main frame components have open C-shaped cross sections
• As much as possible, elds were eliminated for simplicity and appearance. The frame beams and swingarm brackets are now single die-cast pieces
• The frame uses four engine mounts; three mounts are rigid, hile the upper rear crankcase mount is rubber
• The rear sub-frame is a three-piece aluminum die-casting construction, hich is light, trong and optimizes mass centralization
• The sub-frame is an example of form and function combined, egating the need for sidecoversand allowing underseat narrowness for a shorter reach to the ground
Horizontal Rear Monoshock

• Rear suspension design positions the shock unit and linkage above the swingarm where it’s less exposed to exhaust heat and contributes to mass centralization
• Visible from the outside, he horizontal monoshock contributes to the Z1000’s aggressive appearance
• Linkage characteristics are the same as those of a standard Uni-Trak® rear suspension: Wheel movement versus shock stroke is the same ratio
• The shock features stepless rebound damping and spring preload adjustability
Fully Adjustable Fork

• The Z1000’s 41mm inverted fork is adjustable for compression damping, ebound damping and spring preload – and is protected from harm by a cool-looking shroud
• Settings are designed for both sporty performance and excellent comfort
Handlebar, rips and Footpegs

• The tubular handlebar is rigid mounted, ontributing to sharp, irect handling
• A wide, lat bend handlebar offers a design similar to those on off-road bikes for excellent control
• Tapered-type grips, ike those used on supersport models, ffer a more direct feel
• Ninja ZX-10R-style footpegs with knurled surfaces offer good grip, irect feel and control, nd no-nonsense looks
• The passenger footpeg brackets incorporate convenient luggage hooks
Brakes

• The Z1000’s 300mm front petal-style brake discs are gripped by opposed four-piston radial-mount calipers. (Caliper piston size is 4x30 mm)
• A radial-pump front brake master cylinder contributes to the superb control and feel offered by these high-end calipers
• The rear brake is a single-piston, in-slide caliper gripping a 250mm petal-style disc. The caliper is mounted below the swingarm, nd located by a torque rod
Instrumentation

• A distinctive tilting instrument panel with multifunction LCD display behind an orange lens covers all systems
