Ninja ZX-6R To Be Homologated For WorldSSP

Kawasaki has just revealed that the 2025 model year Ninja ZX-6R is to be homologated for competition use within the WorldSSP Championship.

Technical details of the 636cc machine for 2025 are being submitted to the relevant authorities and production machines will be made available for the necessary power and performance checks to be conducted,
Already regarded as a legend among road going supersport riders, the transition from its current race homologated 599cc capacity to 636cc for the Ninja will more accurately mirror the product available in road bike dealers in 2025 and provide an eagerly anticipated increase in available torque and horsepower for the race bike to develop further. 
These and other measures are being targeted to ensure that the famous mid-capacity Ninja will be SS600NG compatible and remain at the competitive cutting edge of a very hard fought global racing series.
Steve Guttridge, Race Planning Manager for Kawasaki Motors Europe commented.
“We regard this as a logical process not only to provide a competitive machine on track for our official team, Puccetti Kawasaki Racing, for their 2025 WorldSSP assault but also to align the paddock presence in WorldSSP with the machines on display in dealer showrooms for a new sales season.
As soon as the homologation is confirmed we can concentrate on the final development and approval of any updated items within an accompanying racing kit parts programme as well as informing and updating other Kawasaki teams who also race in Championships aligned with the FIM homologation.”
