Motorcycle specifications KawasakiNinja 1000 SX 40ème Anniversaire 2024 The other age of strength
presentation of the Ninja 1000 SX 40ème Anniversaire 2024
Would Stendhal have breathed a word about this Ninja 1000 SX? Just a title, while the interested party thinks of other pages. The 40th anniversary of the Ninja, which doesn't go unnoticed. Kawasaki is celebrating with a series of special editions, covering the vast majority of Ninja models in the catalog. Sports bikes get a commemorative deco based on the theme of the old ZXR 750 Stinger, while fairing roadsters go for the red and black of their origins.
A huge bloody tongue runs through the body of the bike, surrounded by black slices. With discreet grey edging on the top of the machine. This style, this presence, this provocation, comes directly from the GPZ 900 R, the first of the family. A veritable bombshell at the time, evocative of fantasies and Top Gun, it is reborn as a watermark on the fairing of the roadster-sport-GT.
For those with a penchant for names, this color is called "Firecracker Red & Black Ebony "*.
So, the Ninja 1000 SX apes the legendary 1985 GPZ, for 2024. Not a very good way to celebrate the Ninja's 40th anniversary...
But it's true: it's the vintage '85 color scheme that's been carried over. The original 900 dates back to 1984. In any case, we can't discuss any other number - a "40 Years Ninja" emblem is prominently displayed on the tank.
Kawasaki had somewhat prepared the ground for this revival. At the end of 2021, for the last round of WSBK, Alex Lowes' ZX-10R Factory was decorated with a very similar dress, while Jonathan Rea 's was based on the Stinger line.
Nostalgics and those curious about the past will have plenty of choice in 2024 in the Kawa range, for a few hundred euros more - a far more reasonable overlay than the overpriced Italian delusions.
M.B - Manufacturer's photos
* A little déjà-vu? Not surprising. Kawasaki had already revived it in 2022, to dress up a whole series of Z 50th anniversary models
(Z 650 RS 50 th - Z 900 RS 50 th - Z 650 50 th - Z 900 50 th).
