The manufacturer would feature the 2016 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 with an Assist and Slipper Clutch to add more jam in its ride quality and performance. This information popped up on the Kawasaki’s Australian website. The assist and slipper clutch have been achieved by production models that are under standard operating conditions. The changes are only made to the technical profile as, apart from the two new paint schemes- Green/Black and Gray/Black, the manufacturer has not made any changes in its body profile. It is not a big surprise as the Assist and Slipper clutch have already acquired in Versys 1000, which shares the engine and transmission of Z1000SX’s.
The slipper clutch does a good job as this technology allows quick downshifting even at the high speed, without locking the wheel. A rider downshift the gears at high speed while having cornering. Sometimes, the clutch remains engaged while performing the action and the rear wheel suddenly locks for a while resulting in the loss of traction. To prevent the rear wheel from locking, the assist and slipper help you to perform the action.

The Ninja is a world-class sport-tourer series, which is known by its aerodynamic look and outstanding performance. It also offers dynamic ride quality and excellent sport-tourer capability. The 2016 Ninja 1000 will produce same power output as the current version delivers. The motorcycle will receive a four-stroke, liquid-cooled and 1,043cc engine displacement, that will deliver robust power output.
A few months ago, the company launched its Supercharged monster, Kawasaki Ninja H2, in the Indian two-wheeler market. Moreover, it is expected that the 2016 version of Ninja 1000 will make its appearance in the 13th Edition of Auto Expo Show, which is going to be held in Delhi-NCR in February 2016.
