The page profiles the GPz 900 Ninja, the 1984 liquid-cooled sportbike that the text calls the earliest Ninja and claims as the first 16-valve liquid-cooled inline four. It describes a press-unveiling and Isle of Man Production TT result from 1984, and includes a note on a numbered early example with primer showing and decals applied rather than factory-finished. Its claims of 115 bhp and 151 mph conflict with the 108 hp and 155 mph in its table.
