However, those looking for major changes will end up disappointed as the only changes to the latest ZX 10RR come in the form of two ‘colour changes to components'. The new ZX 10RR's reservoir canisters behind the front forks are now painted silver instead of red and the same colour makes way for green for the fork top cap as well.

Kawasaki's 2018 upgrade for its ZX 10RR super sports bike is one of the most minute ever with just tweaks to colour of two components being the only changes around. While the changes are minuscule, don't expect Kawasaki to have any problems in selling the bike which retails at just over Rs 22 lakh.
