Flying in the face of environmental regulations, the 2024 Kawasaki ZX-6R makes a return to the Japanese motorcycle maker’s European lineup. After a three-year hiatus, the ZX-6R sportsbike is slated to return to Kawasaki’s European showrooms later this year.
The ZX-6R is now EU5 emissions compliant – something that has thus far eluded the Honda CBR600RR and the Yamaha R6, both of which are for track duty only. This marks the return of the middleweight four-cylinder sportsbike for Europe, something that will make the racing boys rejoice.
From Kawasaki’s European media website, the 2024 ZX-6R comes with an inline four-cylinder, liquid-cooled with DOHC and displacing 636 cc. Power is rated at 124 PS at 13,000 rpm while ram air bumps that up to 129 PS at 13,000 rpm, with a peak torque of 69 Nm at 10,800 rpm.
The 2024 ZX-6R isn’t a carry-over model either. Equipment has been updated to reflect the latest motorcycle performance standards, including Showa SFF-BP 41 mm diameter upside-down fully-adjustable front forks and fully-adjustable monoshock in the rear.
A full suite of riding aids comes as standard including four ride modes (including a user customisable mode), three-mode traction control and selectable power delivery modes. Also standard is a quickshifter while a 4.3-inch TFT-LCD display features connectivity to the rider’s smartphone.
There are two colour options for the Kawasaki ZX-5R in Europe – Lime Green/Ebony and Metallic Graphite Grey. The question that needs to be asked is, will the ZX-6R be brought into Malaysia through distributors Modenas?

Boring..sweat like hell riding a bike in Malaysia. Not suitable for educated people.
Not sure what you mean, but i still do my daily ride to work on a bike. Enjoyed every second of it. Coming from someone with a postgraduate degree.
Typical cager. Don’t hate on bikes just because you’re always stuck in gridlocks every rush hour lol
Ntah la. Zx25r pun berjanggut dah tunggu sampai. Ini zx6r ntah 10 tahun lg kot masuk kahkah
Yang ZX25R tu pun berjanggut nak tunggu. Ni ZX6R ntah bila pulak akan masuk
