Kawasaki Ninja Zx-14r

The Kawasaki Ninja Zx-14r has a top speed of 299 km/h (electronically limited; estimated unrestricted ~320+ km/h), produces 210 hp and weighs 268 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

가와사키 닌자 ZX-14R (일부 시장에서는 ZZR1400 이라고도 함) 은 2006년에 ZX-12R 후속 모델로 출시되어 즉시 세계에서 가장 빠른 양산 모터사이클이라는 타이틀을 차지했습니다.이 모델은 2012년에 수정된 스타일링, 트랙션 컨트롤, 파워 부스트 등으로 대대적인 업데이트를 받았으며, 2020년대 중반까지 플래그십 스포츠 투어링 하이퍼바이크로 계속 생산되었습니다.극한의 최고 속도 성능, 장거리 주행의 편안함, 그리고 양산형 모터사이클이 따라올 수 없는 강력한 저속 토크의 조합으로 여전히 주목받고 있습니다.

구매자가 알아야 할 사항

Massive Power Output

The ZX-14R's 1441cc inline-four produces around 200hp, making it one of the fastest production motorcycles ever built. This engine is known for exceptional durability even when pushed hard, often lasting well beyond 50,000 miles with proper maintenance.

🔧

Watch the Cam Chain

A known issue on higher-mileage ZX-14Rs is cam chain tensioner wear, which presents as a rattling noise on cold starts. Always ask for service records and listen carefully at startup before purchasing a used example.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The ZX-14R holds its value exceptionally well compared to competitors, partly due to its discontinued status after 2020 making clean examples increasingly desirable. Low-mileage models especially command strong prices in the used market.

8.8/10

"전자 장치가 모든 것을 중성화하기 전의 마지막 정직한 하이퍼바이크."

ZX-14 모델은 스포츠 바이크 차체로 둘러싸인 화물 열차처럼 당신을 때립니다. 1352cc 모터는 3,000rpm에서 동력을 내뿜으며 격렬한 가속 주행 후 목을 아프게 합니다.저는 4년 동안 제 엔진을 소유했는데 엔진은 절대 노후화되지 않습니다. 하지만 2단 기어를 타이트하게 구부리는 순간 섀시는 215kg을 운반한다고 알려줍니다. 느리지 않고 솔직히 질량만 보면 말이죠.페어링으로 바람을 막아주는 기능은 이렇게 빠른 자전거를 타기에는 정말 뛰어나며, 고속도로에서 투업 투어를 하는 것은 제가 타 본 어떤 리터바이크보다 부담이 적습니다.약점은 기어박스가 차가울 때 잡음이 느껴지고, 앞 브레이크는 억제하려는 동력에 비해 나무처럼 느껴지며, 정기적으로 절반 이상의 스로틀을 사용하면 연료 소비가 잔인하게 급감한다는 것입니다.

장점

+엔진 토크는 정말 엄청납니다
+뛰어난 고속 바람 보호
+편안한 투업 투어링 기능
+방탄 장기 신뢰성 기록
+날카로운 스로틀 반응, 지연 없음

단점

코너링에서는 항상 질량이 존재한다
목재, 목재 프론트 브레이크 느낌
완전히 따뜻해질 때까지 기어박스가 고르지 않음
급속히 상승하는 연비
최적 대상: 강력한 파워를 갈망하는 패스트 투어러 건너뛰기: 협곡 조각의 민첩성을 우선시합니다

중고 구매자 리뷰

8.5/10
최적 대상
Experienced riders wanting effortless, ridiculous straight-line speed

"The last true hypersport bruiser that needs zero apologies."

$7,500-$12,500 used

The ZX-14R is basically a loaded gun with a throttle attached, and I mean that as a compliment. That 1441cc inline-four makes somewhere north of 200 horsepower in stock trim, and it pulls like nothing else at any speed, in any gear. Used examples hold up remarkably well — Kawasaki built these things like tanks, and most owners treat them like museum pieces because they're genuinely intimidating to ride hard. On the used market, watch for front tire wear patterns that suggest track abuse, and always check the frame around the headstock for any signs of a tip-over or worse. The ABS versions from 2012 onwards are worth the premium. Fuel economy is laughable — budget for that. Comfort is surprisingly decent for long hauls given the aggressive seating position, though your wrists will remind you it exists after two hours.
