2011 KAWASAKI Ninja ZX-10R ABS, Its hard to imagine a more advanced or more capable sportbike than the completely new and totally redesigned Kawasaki Ninja. ZX-10R. After all, it packs the very latest in sport bike technology, much of it right off the MotoGP circuit, including the most advanced traction-control system in production bike history. But the ZX-10R has an even smarter sibling the 2011 Ninja ZX-10R ABS. At first glance, anti-lock braking might seem a touch out of place on a purebred sportbike. This system was designed from the start to provide maximum on-track performance. And when you consider the many safety- and control-oriented benefits provided by the amazing electronic and hardware technology available today, it begins to make a lot of sense. Think of it: Youre charging into a hairpin during a track day. Its late in the afternoon, youre tired, and your front tire is shagged from a day of hard-core knee-dragging. But instead of tucking as you squeeze the front brake lever, your front tire chirps briefly and the KIBS system intervenes until traction returns allowing you to arc gracefully into the corner, a little wiser and a lot more intact physically that you might have been riding a non-ABS motorcycle. On the street, anti-locks benefits are even easier to realize.
