2011 Kawasaki Z1000 Review
2011 Kawasaki Z1000 motorcycle model
2011 Kawasaki Z1000 motorcycle model
Key Features
- 1043 cc inline-four with DFI produces a large amount of torque
- Lightweight aluminum frame is specially designed for Z1000
- Fully adjustable inverted fork with settings designed for sports performance
- Horizontal rear shock with rebound and spring preload adjustment continued
- Mounting radial four-piston radial front brake master pump brake cylinder before combining with 300mm discs offer superb stopping power
- The digital instrument panel tilts to accommodate different viewing angles
- Aggressive styling makes a bold fashion statement
DOHC 16-valve, 1043 cc engine
- In general, liquid-cooled four provides a significant power at all rpm levels, which provides effortless acceleration in any situation
- Dimensions bore and stroke of 77.0 x 56.0 mm offer the optimum balance between power and maximum flexibility for low-and mid-range
- 38mm inverted bodies allow the gas engine air intake in the shortest possible distance travel
- Oval by-strangling help keep the engine is small - a good thing, because the throttle body is placed between the knees of the driver
- Soft rev limiter provides overspeed good character, not because the hand suddenly at high speed
- The crankshaft is placed in the bottom of the housing assembly to allow a longer stroke without adding engine height
- Balance secondary, short of driving: The crankshaft sixth network, eliminating excessive vibration
Fresh air system
- The ways of the system cold air intake on top of air intake ducts of the radiator cap, which minimizes the performance loss due to the heated air inlet
- The positioning of channels near the intake RIDER allows voice to be heard - and enjoyed - a pilot
- A resonator inside the box air filter reduces noise at low speeds, and improves its contribution to high speed
Exhaust System
- The exhaust system has an available 4-in-2-room-for-2. Silent caps to keep quad Picture Style
- Primary and pre-catalysts to provide cleaner emissions
- Thanks for not locking the room heating, the exhaust volume is reduced, and the weight of the silencer is low. The exhaust system as an excellent mass centralization and low center of gravity to promote
Fuel Tank
- Fuel pump type Slim has a fuel gauge integrated
- Drawing of the fuel tank, slim-type fuel pump to minimize the amount of unused fuel tank inside the fuel tank is 4.0 liters
Backbone aluminum frame
- Aluminum frame is the backbone specifically designed to Z1000 (and similar to the concept of Ninja ZX-10R ® ™ 's) help make the bike a thin and easy to grasp the knees for comfort and feedback
- Lightweight and very rigid frame using the engine as a stressed member of a firm, planted feel and increased stability
- The frame is attached to the ideal level send feedback directly to the engine rider
- Hull design is composed of five elements by a steering arm, the left and right main frame, and two bars. Two parts of the body is open C-shaped cross section
- Where possible, the welds were cut, and the appearance of simplicity. Beam frame and rear fork mounts are now one piece cast
- The chassis uses four engine mounts, three rigid frames, while supporting the upper rear tire
- The rear subframe is a three-piece cast aluminum construction, mass centralization is light, strong and optimization
- Subframe is an example of form and function, combined with the need to empty and under-side panel allows you to narrow the country to obtain a shorter.

Horizontal rear shock
- The design of the unit positions of the suspension of the rear shock and the link above the swingarm, which is less exposed to the extraction of heat and contributes to mass centralization
- Appears to promote the aggressive appearance of horizontal shock Z1000
- The binding characteristics are the same as a standard of Uni-Trak ® rear suspension: wheel movement of the shock stroke is the same proportion
- The shock continued rebound and spring preload adjustment
Fully adjustable fork
- 41 mm inverted fork The Z1000 is adjustable preload, compression and rebound spring - and the danger it is protected by a cooling research
- The settings are designed for athletic performance and excellent comfort
Handlebars, grips and footrests
- The Tubular handlebar is mounted rigidly, contribute to strong, direct manipulation
- A large folding handlebars feature a design similar to those of dirt bikes for excellent control
- Type of cone handles, like those used in the Supersport models offer a more direct feel
- Ninja ZX-10R style footrest with ribbed surface offers excellent grip, feel and control direct and no-nonsense looks
- Footrest brackets include a convenient storage hook
Brakes
- The Z1000 is 300mm front brake discs petals style is captured as opposed four-piston radial-mount calipers. (Caliper piston size is 4x30 mm)
- Radial-pump front brake pump contributes to excellent control and feel offered by these high-end brake calipers
- The rear brake is a single-piston, pin-caliper grabs a 250mm petal-style disc. This bracket is mounted under the swingarm and is located a couple rod
Instrumentation
- A panel tilt feature of the instrument with multi-function LCD display behind a lens amber covers all systems.
