The '' Kawasaki GPZ600R '' sports bike model appeared in 1985 and is considered the ancestor of all Kawasaki sports motorcycles in the 600cc class. In the North American market, the model was called the '' Kawasaki Ninja 600R ''. The model was focused on sales in Europe and North America, so it is extremely rare in Japan. Instead, there was a 400 cc model on the Japanese market - [[Kawasaki_GPZ400 | Kawasaki GPZ400R]].
