Features
Key Highlights
1,099 cc In-Line Four: Increased Displacement for Better Low-Mid Range
Based on the Ninja 1000SX’s proven and well-liked engine, the Ninja 1100SX’s engine displaces 1,099 cc and delivers 11.5 kgfm of torque. The liquid-cooled, 4-stroke In-Line Four engine now pulls even more strongly in the low-to-mid rpm range—which riders will notice immediately and use often—while the high rpm performance remains robust to deliver all-around improved engine power feel and response.
Warm Hands on Cool Days
Grip heaters featured on the SE model (available as an accessory on the standard model) keep riders’ hands warm when the weather gets cool, adding comfort on rides both in town and on long-distance tours.
Öhlins S46 rear shock
An Öhlins S46 shock absorber at the rear provides a plush feel and ample adjustability to tailor the setup to the rider’s preferences.
Premium Brembo Front Brake Package
Brembo M4.32 front brake calipers and Brembo brake discs offer stronger braking performance and enhanced control. Steel-braided lines contribute to the enhanced brake package.
TFT Colour Instrumentation
The compact 4.3” all-digital TFT (thin-film transistor) colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech appearance. The screen’s background colour is selectable (black or white), and screen brightness adjusts automatically to suit available light.
Kawasaki Intelligent anti-lock Brake System
Kawasaki’s supersport-grade brake management system uses high-precision control to regulate brake pressure during sporty riding. KIBS also incorporates corner braking management, modulating brake force to assist riders in holding their intended line through the corner.
Improved Kawasaki Quick Shifter
The dual-direction Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS) is now even easier and more fun to use, offering smoother shifting when accelerating and decelerating. It now functions from a lower minimum rpm, facilitating slower-speed gear shifts, and improving ride feel when riding at a more relaxed pace.
Supersport Components
A number of supersport-style components contribute to the Ninja 1100SX’s sport riding potential. Centred around an aluminium frame, an inverted front fork and Horizontal Back-link rear suspension are complemented by a supersport-style brake package, including triple brake discs, radial-mount monobloc calipers and radial-pump front brake master cylinder.
Composed Sporty Handling
The Ninja 1100SX’s highly rigid aluminium frame offers a high degree of mass centralisation, offering a balance of agility and firm handling. The bike responds quickly to rider input, while offering an excellent ability to soak up bumps and ruts. Highly composed, the Ninja 1100SX’s superb straight-line stability and its planted feeling in corners make it easy to spend long hours in the saddle.
Sport, Dynamic Ninja Styling
Supersport-style full-fairing bodywork gives the Ninja 1100SX a distinct, head-turning look. The sleek styling also offers a good measure of wind protection, facilitating short touring runs. Genuine Kawasaki panniers are shown on the motorcycle in some images. These panniers are sold separately and not included in the motorcycle purchase.
Make Every Ride a Breeze
Wind protection afforded by the full-fairing bodywork is complemented by a windshield with four available positions. Conveniently, the windshield is adjustable by hand (without tools).
Relaxed & Comfortable
Offering both control and comfort, the Ninja 1100SX’s relaxed riding position was designed to accommodate everything from city riding to touring to sport riding. This blend of comfort and control allows the rider to enjoy a variety of riding situations. Weight added to the insides of the handlebars complemented by heavier bar ends help reduce vibration for a more comfortable ride. Genuine Kawasaki panniers are shown on the motorcycle in some images. These panniers are sold separately and not included in the motorcycle purchase.
Improved Fuel Economy and Longer Gearing
The Ninja 1100SX achieves both an increase in engine power and improved fuel economy at the same time thanks to revised engine components, longer 5th and 6th gears, and a lower rev limit. The longer 5th and 6th gears allow riders to cruise at a lower rpm on the expressway, adding to touring comfort. Genuine Kawasaki panniers are shown on the motorcycle in some images. These panniers are sold separately and not included in the motorcycle purchase.
Easily Attach & Remove
The mounting system for the accessory panniers* allows the panniers to be attached and removed very simply, contributing to increased convenience. Seamlessly integrating the panniers with the rear of the bike, the clean-mount system positions the panniers close to the bike centreline, its clean clutter-free design ensuring the rear of the bike still looks good with the panniers removed.
*Sold separately as Kawasaki Genuine Accessory.
Relaxed Cruising
Kawasaki’s cruise control system allows a desired speed to be maintained with the simple press of a button.
Handlebar-Mounted USB-C Outlet
A USB Type-C socket is now mounted on the left handlebar, offering riders a convenient power source.
Kawasaki Cornering Management Function
Using the latest evolution of Kawasaki’s advanced modelling software and feedback from a compact IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), KCMF monitors engine and chassis parameters throughout the corner – from entry, through the apex, to corner exit – modulating brake force and engine power to facilitate smooth transition from acceleration to braking and back again.
Kawasaki TRaction Control
Three modes cover a wide range of riding conditions, offering either enhanced sport riding performance or enabling riders to negotiate low-traction surfaces with confidence.
A Mode for Every Road
Integrated riding modes link Kawasaki TRaction Control (KTRC) and Power Modes to offer varying traction control and power delivery settings to suit different riding conditions. Sport mode enables sporty riding for winding roads. Road mode offers comfortable riding over a wide range of conditions. Rain mode delivers reassurance over wet surfaces. Rider (manual) mode lets you set each system independently.
