Thanks to its racing credentials, the motorcycle is one of the most highly sought-after machines in its segment. On the other hand, BMW S 1000 RR is a great Streetfighter bike in this segment, the S 1000 RR might have lost its sharper styling but it is narrower than before, with a smaller fuel tank as well.

The ECU is programmed with five different types of control systems, including traction control, slide control, launch control and quick shifter. On the other hand, the Ninja ZX-10R has undergone a massive styling change for 2021. The motorcycle now gets the Ninja H2-inspired front fascia, just like most other Ninja series bikes. Its 998cc motor still pushes out 213PS and 115Nm, making sure it doesn't lose its membership from the elite 200 PS club.
