KNOWS NO BOUNDS POSITIVE INFLUENCE It 's behind every great accomplishment. Every great person. And every gre at machine. And it's just what makes the 1993 Ninja ZX-6 E so great, thanks to its Kawasaki Ram Air Intake system th at builds positive pressure in the airbox, It's the same basic system that has made the Ninja ZX·ll revered in the motorcycle world for three years running. But, ram-air is just a part of the equation: Engine reciprocat ing weight is at a minumum with an incredibly light crank, pistons, rods and valves. We even minimized crankcase pumping losses by building special short cylinder sleeves. And to make the most of th e ram-air system, th ere's a special exhaust and re vised ignit ion curve. But we did n't stop there. To he lp you fully utilize the added power, there's a redesigned fram e that's con structed of welded together pressed-alloy shee ts-just like on ou r champ ionship-winning ZX·7R-that forms a rigid, yet lightweight package. Fine-tuning contributing to back-road prowess includes a nimble-handling 56.3·inch whee lba se and a big, sturdy steering stem and fr ont axle. One ride tells you we did th e Right Thi ng. No doubt about it, th e Ninja ZX-6 E represents a wholenew bal l game: With you've-got-to-ride-it-to-b elieve-it power and the incredible handling agility you can only get with a Ninja, th is 600 delivers what you could have only imagined befor e. The Ninja ZX·6E. Think posi tive. You won't if you ride a Kawasaki KLX650Ror KLX650. Whether on ro ad , off-r oad, or in th e heat of comp etit ion, the new-for·'93 KLX650 series is des igned and built with the most up-to-date big bore.fiquid-cooled, four-stroke off· road technology available. Take for instance the KLX650R. It has the lightest 651 cc Kawasaki engine ever-in a package that's extre mely compact. A high-tensile-steel perimeter frame-technology straight from our championshi p-winning KX motocrossers, A terrain-taming 43 mm upside-down fork and Bottom-Link UNI·TRAK~ suspension system. Plus a full-floating front brake disc with a twin-piston caliper. Face it: This is the tec hnology that makes a winner. Time to waste those excuses of why you got blown off by a two-stroke. It just won't wash anymore. As for those of you who don't have a truck to haul your dirt bike around, not to worry. We take care of you with the street-legal KLX650. With the same basic engine and frame design as the R-model, it's light years ahead of the competition, and ready to rail when the paved part of the road ends. Of cours e, we added the niceties civilized folk like, such as electric starting, street-legal tires, passenger footrests and a maintenance-free battery. So, there's no reason to feel hemmed-in any longer. Not when there's a 650KLX-series Kawa saki with your name on it. Get one, and lose the bou ndaries of your fellow man.
