The ''' Kawasaki ZX-9R ''' sports bike model appeared in 1994 as Kawasaki's response to the [[Honda_CBR900RR_Fireblade | Honda CBR900RR Fireblade]] model, which almost immediately gained popularity in the market. With the CBR900RR Fireblade, Honda has been able to combine the power of a liter bike with the handling of lighter 750cc models. Kawasaki, on the other hand, offered more power and more impressive dynamic characteristics, but noticeably lost in weight and handling. In general, the ZX9R was more suited to the role of a sports tourist with its more upright fit and high clip-on position.

* [[Suzuki_RF900 | Suzuki RF900]]
* [[Yamaha_YZF1000R_Thunderace | Yamaha YZF1000R Thunder Ace]]

The first versions of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-9R were built on the basis of another sports model [[Kawasaki_ZXR750 | Kawasaki ZXR750]], getting from it virtually the same engine, but increased displacement and front inverted forks. Subsequent generations were significantly revised and finally separated from [[Kawasaki_ZXR750 | Kawasaki ZXR750]] - they received a new engine, frame and suspension.
2003 was the last year of production of the model, after which it finally left the market, giving way to a completely new flagship model - [[Kawasaki_ZX-10R | Kawasaki ZX-10R]].
