The venerable Kawasaki ZX-10RR has already distinguished itself in the field of MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship racing. Still, ahead of the 2026 season, the Japanese manufacturer has announced it will further augment the seven-time World Championship-winning bike. The updated platform now features a front aero system rocking a pair of redesigned front wings, a new Euro5+ engine, and a reimagined ram air intake, with the aim of propelling their sole rider, Garrett Gerloff (Kawasaki WorldSBK Team), back into the fight at the front.
