January 2016 was the first time this bike made it to RSBFS with Marty reporting, “Only one modern day motorcycle company has consistently focused on offering riders the potential of ludicrous speed, Kawasaki. From the GPZ of the mid 80’s to the Ninja/ZZR of the 90’s & early 2000’s to the modern day H2, Kawasaki has staked out a position as the company that offers average folks the opportunity to reach the upper boundaries of speed (even though most riders rarely do this). The ZX12R was one of the the “team green” bikes designed and built in accord with this philosophy.”
Consider the following quote from the Kawasaki ZX12R project leader Hiroshi Takata:
“There were factions within the company who questioned the need for a machine this fast and powerful. I had to explain to them that to many riders, a machine´s potential is what makes it so alluring, regardless of whether they themselves will ever exploit that potential.”
Looking for recent sales I found a red Ninja on BaT that sold for $7,500 with only 3,600 miles. Almost a year ago, a silver ZX-12R sold for $5,500 with 16,578 miles, listed on Iconic.
Good luck to the buyer and seller!
My neighbour got one of these new in 2002. We went on a few rides together, and I recall this thing having massive roll-on acceleration in all gears.
