Kawasaki is driving sales on the European market by offering some models with dedicated accessories as series editions over the summer.
The ZX-10R and ZX-6R get “Performance Edition” versions for even more sports power.
The ZX-10R has an Akrapovic exhaust, double bubble front shield, mini front indicators and knee protection around the tank.
It gains 5hp extra, while the ZX-6R gets an extra 3 hp with the same accessories kit.
The ZX-6R costs about an extra 1,000 euros with this set-up, while the ZX-10R is sold at the same price as the standard version.
The Kawasaki ZZR1400 sports touring model gets a Sport Edition kit with an Akrapovic 4-in-2 carbon exhaust which saves 6.
5 kg on the bike.
An increase of 5 hp is achieved and the ZZR1400 also gets the Double Bubble front.
It’s on sale for an extra 1,600 euros.
Meanwhile best sellers in Europe, the Z1000 and the Z750, get Sport Urban versions for city riding.
Missing the Akrapovic exhaust of the other models, they get tinted wheels, aerodynamic features and fuel tank protection for 200 euros on the 750 and 480 euros on the 1000.
The 1400GTR also gets a “Grand Tour” kit for more sales appeal with a top case, GPS support, bag protection, soft internal bags and some added fuel tank protection, too.
It’s sold with an additional price tag of about 420 euros.
These lower prices for what are generally optional extras are not a bad strategy for sales this year.
Additional incentives for motorcycle purchases are uncertain in Europe in 2010, and Kawasaki is doing something that could give its models added appeal.
