SEPANG: Motosikal & Enjin Nasional Sdn Bhd (Modenas), a subsidiary of DRB-Hicom Bhd, rolled out the red carpet recently for the first 100 owners of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R at Paddock 1, Sepang International Circuit.
With 350 excited attendees including Kawasaki dealers, die-hard fans and the media, it wasn’t just a handover — it was a full-throttle celebration!
Leading the festivities was Modenas chief marketing officer Yusaku Kashiwagi.
“This is not just a bike delivery. This is the moment Kawasaki is fulfilling the passion of its fans who love performance and pure adrenaline. The Ninja ZX-6R is built for those who crave speed and precision, and today, our customers get to experience that firsthand on the legendary Sepang track,” said Kashiwagi.
The new owners wasted no time revving up their engines and hitting the track for their first exhilarating ride on their brand-new supersport machines.
When the pre-booking campaign for the 2024 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R kicked off in November 2024, Modenas initially expected to secure 50 units.
However, due to overwhelming demand, the number of units was doubled to 100 units — effectively selling out the first and second batches of deliveries in record time.
Powered by a 636cc inline-four engine, this beast delivers heart-racing performance with smooth acceleration and torque.
It comes packed with advanced electronics, including a quick shifter, three-mode traction control, and multiple power modes.
The Showa Separate Function Big Piston Forks ensure razor-sharp handling, while the 4.3-inch TFT dash with smartphone connectivity keeps you informed and in control.
Modenas is offering the latest 2024 model at RM59,900, a massive drop from the previous 2018 model's RM79,900 price tag thanks to the bike now being assembled locally in Gurun, Kedah.
“This model is built for the track, but it’s also ready to dominate the streets. At this price point, the Ninja ZX-6R is the ultimate supersport machine for riders who want the best of both worlds,” Kashiwagi added.
