Motorcycle Road Test: 2004 Kawasaki ZX-10R Ninja
Cheers & Jeers
Engine: 9 Like dynamite, but 162 horses aren't always user-friendly.
Drivetrain: 9 A little lash shy of perfect.
Handling: 9 Lithe, light and highly agile.
Braking: 8 Powerful, but more bite, please.
Ride 9: Compliant for such a beast.
Ergonomics: 7 Survivable if you're 6-foot-3 or under.
Features: 8 Shift light and lap timer are cute; tacho sucks.
Refinement: 9 The most urbane Ninja yet.
Value: 10 162 horsepower for $11,000. Can't beat it.
Fun Factor: 9 Absolute power corrupts, absolutely.
Verdict: Supreme horsepower in a highly capable package. Like any surface-to-surface missile, tricky to wield and dangerous in the wrong hands. View Related Article
