2016 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R Revealed

The overall bodywork hasn't changed much and there isn't a vast difference between the new and the predecessor. The front fairing sees some changes and is fuller, hence restyled. The graphics that the bike is wrapped around is a bit overdone and the fairing looks a bit cluttered and busy.

The instrument cluster has been changed and it has been now overhauled to show engine braking information, IMU information, launch control settings, power mode used, and even an economy indicator. The instrument cluster automatically changes its brightness based on ambient light.
