The 2016 - 2017 Special Edition of the ZX-14R ABS. Kawasaki introduced it to reclaim the top spot in its sport range after the supercharged H2 arrived in 2014. Brembo brakes, stainless brake and clutch lines and a carbon-grey matte paint finish set it apart from the standard bike, which keeps ABS, three-mode KTRC and a slipper clutch.
