Track before you buy with Kawasaki

Written by 
2010 ZX6 R, now you can try before you buy - on a track 2010 ZX6 R, now you can try before you buy - on a track Kawasaki UK
Kawasaki Motors UK has teamed up once more with Europe’s premier track day organiser, Focused Events, to unveil an ambitious track day demo-ride scheme called the Kawasaki Ninja Experience where customers can have the ultimate test ride on a Ninja ZX-6R for a whole day at the UK circuit of their choice.
Added to the unique ability to test the supreme middleweight Supersport machine at a track local to them, potential customers for the Ninja can also benefit, for a limited time, from a full refund of the machine hire cost too should they go on to purchase a brand new ZX-6R during the offer period. Already working alongside Focused Events to promote the Kawasaki Tours package which kicks off in the Loire Valley in May, the opportunity to try a ZX-6R on track before buying will attract many riders according to Sales and Marketing Manager for Kawasaki Motors UK, Michael Johnstone.

“Apart from race-day bodywork and tyres suited to track use, all the Ninja ZX-6R test bikes will be 100% standard such is the level of performance offered by this cutting edge machine. Of course it makes an ideal road bike too, but the chance to explore its performance potential in a controlled and safe environment will be an obvious attraction to many potential owners.” Announcing a comprehensive line-up of nationwide circuits for the test days, the whole of the UK is effectively covered including Brands Hatch (London and South), Oulton Park (North West), Silverstone (Central), Knockhill (Scotland), Cadwell Park (North East), Snetterton (East Anglia), Anglesey (N Wales), Pembrey (S Wales), Mallory (Midlands) and Rockingham (Midlands).

The price for the hire of a Ninja ZX-6R will be £245 plus the specific circuit trackday cost (with prices as low as £59 in the off-season) and includes petrol, tyres and regular inspection by mechanics during the day. For more information on try-out trackdays and Ninja ZX-6R hire, Focused Events are available on 0845 0267272 or email This email address is being protected from spambots.
