[[Kawasaki motorcycles|Kawasaki's]] flagship and answer to [[Suzuki|Suzuki's]] [[Suzuki GSX1300R|Hayabusa]], the ZX-12R is a fuel injected (4 x 48 mm throttle bodies) 1200 cc [[hypersport]]s [[Motorcycle]] generating 178 hp at standstill and 190 hp at 300 km/h by virtue of its very obvious ram-tube. Handling and [[brake|braking]] match the effortless power of the [[Internal combustion engine|engine]] resulting in a [[Motorcycle]] that is docile at low speeds and very easy to handle in heavy traffic but which has mind-numbing acceleration and a top speed in the region of 206.25 [[mph]] (330 [[km/h]]). | [[Kawasaki motorcycles|Kawasaki's]] flagship and answer to [[Suzuki|Suzuki's]] [[Suzuki GSX1300R|Hayabusa]], the ZX-12R is a fuel injected (4 x 48 mm throttle bodies) 1200 cc [[hypersport]]s [[Motorcycle]] generating 178 hp at standstill and 190 hp at 300 km/h by virtue of its very obvious ram-tube.
