購入者が知っておくべきこと
Track-Only Limited Production
No more than 500 units are planned to be produced by end of 2026, just enough to homologate the 998 for WSB competition. The KB998 is currently available in the UK as a track bike only because its Kawasaki engine is not Euro5-plus compliant.
Electronically Adjustable Winglets
Electronically controlled carbon-fibre winglets rotate down and back into a horizontal position from 100mph to minimize drag. Under braking, the wings rotate up and forward to maximise downforce.
Adjustable Frame Stiffness
The chromium-molybdenum trellis/milled billet hybrid frame offers adjustable stiffness via a cross member that can be tightened, loosened or removed altogether. This gives expert riders the opportunity to further fine-tune the handling.
