The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R for 2012 gets some updates as seen in this preview pic from VisorDown. The new Ninja gets more black detailing on the chassis, fairing and tank parts, as well as blacked-out wheels and exhaust. The new glossy black gives the ZX-10R an even racier look - in case we needed convincing. We’ll have more as it comes officially from Kawasaki on any other updates to the 2012 Ninja range.

The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R gets some updates for 2010, including a slightly modified look with a new front fairing bringing it closer to the ZX-6R, and redesigned side panels and exhaust make it slimmer and more compact.

For 2010 the Ninja ZX-10R has a modified gearbox, making it more precise, and changes to the steering damper give greater performance. In its essentials the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is the same as always, with a few refresher updates for 2010. Below are more details on the 2010 Ninja.

Overview
The Ninja ZX-10R truly shines on the racetrack, thanks to technology developed on Kawasaki race bikes. Although designed to offer maximum performance on the circuit, the same power and handling that provide such amazing on-track performance, also make it more fun for riding on the street.

Kawasaki World Superbike Racing Team riders Broc Parkes and Makoto Tamada are preparing for the Nurburgring WSBK. Tamada has been recovering from injury, while Parkes entered the Brands Hatch British Superbike Championship for a little extra riding, scoring three podium finishes with his Ninja ZX-10R.

While both riders are familiar with the circuit, they will be hoping for better weather than last year and Parkes will be looking to build on the podium he previously won in the Supersport class.

On preparations, Broc Parkes says: “After racing at the British Superbike meeting at Brands Hatch in early August we found some really good things on the bike and came away with some great results, that gave me and the team some confidence in our direction for the last four WSB races. It will be great to apply the team’s development to the Nürburgring race this weekend. I really enjoy racing at this circuit and I’ve had some successful results in the past. I’ve also won a race a few years back on the short circuit for the German Superbike Championship. Overall, I’m really looking forward to some good results this weekend. I’m also over the moon at becoming a father this week to my newborn son, young Jesse John Parkes.”

Italian company EFC has created this carbon accessory kit for the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R. It includes parts that can easily substitute the originals with an assembly kit, to give the Ninja even more an aggressive, racing look.

The kit contains ten carbon pieces of epoxy resin with a high varnish, transparent finish. The parts include front and rear mudguards, chain guard, fuel tank covers and rear hugger. Check them all out on the EFC site (in Italian but there are some handy pricing details, too).
