Engineered by Kawasaki for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2025 Kawasaki Ninja Zx14R ABS features a 1441 cc engine configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 84.0 x 65.0mm with a 12.3:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Ninja Zx14R ABS measures 593.1 kg (1308 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 31 mm (1.2 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 58 mm (2.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.8-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
