1. Basic introduction
Kawasaki's goal of developing the ZX-12R is to make the driver "easy to drive", but this has not weakened its super engine horsepower. The ZX-12R has a 1199ml water-cooled inline four-cylinder engine, and is also equipped with a Ram Air system and electronic fuel. injection. With an engine with high combustion efficiency, heat dissipation has become a problem that the ZX-12R has to face. Kawasaki has equipped it with a cylinder with an all-aluminum plated inner wall to reduce the thickness and increase the heat dissipation efficiency.To become an "easy-to-drive" supercar, high-performance performance alone is not enough. Kawasaki not only improved the crankshaft and clutch of the ZX-12R, but also worked hard on the ignition time to make the horsepower output of the ZX-12R become On average, the original hot temperament of the engine has also converged a lot, which is suitable for general road conditions. The improvement of the frame focuses on matching the engine structure in order to provide better sports performance for the car.
2. Product Design
"Flagship" became the top mark of the Ninja series of super sports cars. As the successor of the king of speed, the Ninja ZX-12R used an aluminum alloy one-piece frame for the first time, which was the most advanced technology at the time. The water-cooled DOHC 16-valve inline four-cylinder engine had terrifying maximum power, aerodynamic settings, and frame design that were unparalleled at the time.
The four-stroke parallel four-cylinder engine with a displacement of up to 1.352cc, the specification is 84mx6mmm, and the red diameter stroke ratio is 1.377, which belongs to the short-stroke and high-rev design unique Monocoque aluminum alloy frame. The reason it's stronger than a double-spar frame is because the Monocoque frame uses the engine as one of the pressure members and houses the bellows
Inside the frame, a fairly compact frame environment is created to house the required machinery and equipment. The Monocoque aluminum frame is as stable as a mountain at high speeds and provides sharp handling responses during intense driving.

Five, brand introduction
The KAWASAKI brand began in 1878. It is a well-known motorcycle brand, a subsidiary of Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., focusing on motorcycles and other transportation machinery and systems, and is a modern enterprise specializing in the import and sales of Kawasaki motorcycles in China.
Since the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group started its shipbuilding business in 1878, it has established a business foundation in the fields of transportation machinery and systems such as railway vehicles, airplanes, and motorcycles known both inside and outside of the "KAWASAKI" brand. Expand to energy and environmental protection fields including gas turbines, gas engines, energy equipment, environmental equipment, etc., as well as industrial machinery fields including industrial machines, hydraulic machines, and robots.
Currently, the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group contributes to customers and society by providing high-quality products and services through extensive and high-end technologies accumulated over a century of history. In 2007, we formulated the "Kawasaki Group Mission Statement". In this Manifesto, we set "Global Kawasaki, which contributes to the rich life of people around the world and the future of the global environment" as the highest ideal, and clarified the social mission that the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group should fulfill.
In recent years, the development of the world economy has been dominated by emerging countries, and the growth has continued to accelerate. On the other hand, environmental problems such as global warming have become increasingly serious. Under such circumstances, the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group provides technologies that pursue low environmental impact, such as energy saving, low carbon and resource saving, in various fields of transportation machinery and systems, energy environment, and industrial equipment in accordance with various needs of customers and society. Products and services to achieve harmony between the two seemingly contradictory issues of "enable more people to live a prosperous life" and "global environmental protection", and contribute to global sustainable development.
The Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group will continue to reform and innovate in response to changes in society and the business environment. Through the manufacture of various products, we contribute to customers and society on a global scale to achieve corporate growth.
