Kawasaki ZZ-R 1200 Motorcycle - Street (2002-2005)

The Kawasaki ZZ-R 1200, also known as the ZX-12C, was produced from 2002 to 2005 as a high-performance sport-touring motorcycle. Powered by a liquid-cooled, DOHC, 1,164cc inline-four engine, it was designed to offer a blend of power and long-distance comfort. This model succeeded the ZX-11 and was introduced as a new platform in 2002, featuring a more upright riding position, a beefed-up aluminum perimeter frame, and a stronger steel subframe to accommodate touring accessories. Throughout its production run from 2002 to 2005, the ZZ-R 1200 was offered as a single model, identified as the ZX1200-C1, without distinct trim levels. A notable update occurred for the 2004 model year, when Kawasaki added adjustable rebound damping to the 43mm cartridge front fork. Earlier 2002 and 2003 models featured front suspension with adjustable spring preload only. FAQ:
