Camshaft Chain Tensioner

Replace the cam chain tensioner with the kit to decrease the flutter of tensioner. Apply the engine oil to the tensioner rod, O-ring and tensioner body, insert them into the
tensioner body.
○Check to see that the tensioner rod turns freely in the body, if not, polish the tensioner
rod or fine the female threads in the body with a tap (Diameter × Pitch = 6 mm × 1.0 mm).
Install the tensioner on the cylinder block with the tensioner rod is fully pushed back. Turn the tensioner rod in with a screwdriver until it becomes hard to turn. Turn the crankshaft clockwise forcing lightly to the tensioner rod with twisting force to
take up any gap and tighten the locknut.
After adjusting the tensioner rod、if the tensioner rod does not stick out from the tensioner
body, use the kit long tensioner rod (13116-1166).
NOTE
○Never forward the tensioner rod forcibly, this will increase mechanical loss of the
tensioner and may damage to the chain guide.
○The cam chain tensioner must be adjusted at every race.

Camshaft Duration Lift 49118-0008 (STD) (Intake) 300° 9.1 mm 49118-0045 (STD) (Exhaust) 292° 8.5 mm 49118-0034 (Kit) (Intake) 310° 9.7 mm 49118-0077 (Kit) (Exhaust) 280° 8.0 mm
Use the kit valve springs (49078-0049) when the kit exhaust camshaft (49118-0077) is
used.
○Install the kit valve springs facing the rough coiled side (pink paint end) to the retainer.
Adjust the valve clearance within the specified value. Intake: 0.15 ~ 0.24 mm, Exhaust:
0.17 ~ 0.22 mm
More performance is expected when adjusted from middle value to upper limit between
adjustable range.
If you can not adjust the valve timing for racing, install the camshaft sprocket to the
camshaft using the round bolt holes and adjust the cam chain timing according to the Ninja ZX-10R Service Manual. If you adjust the valve timing, install the sprocket to the camshaft between the adjustable range of the long bolt holes.
Tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts to 15 N·m (1.5 kgf·m, 11 ft·lb) of torque.

○When grinding the cylinder head bottom surface, grinding the cylinder top surface or
using thinner gaskets, be sure the valve to piston clearance especially.
○When using the sprocket long bolt holes and adjusting the valve timing to be different
from the standard timing, check the valve to piston clearance of all cylinders after adjusting the valve clearance correctly.
Valve to Piston Clearance (Min.)
Intake 0.7 mm
Exhaust 1.2 mm
If the valve to piston clearance is less than the minimum value, do not start the engine
because the valves will touch the piston and the engine may be damaged.
Adjust the valve timing again to keep the valve to piston clearance more than the minimum value. Method of measuring clearance of valve and piston –1.
○Holding the crankshaft at 10° ATDC (intake) and 10° BTDC (exhaust) of crankshaft
timing, measure the amount of the tappet movement until the valve comes in contact with the piston pushing the tappet.

Method of measuring clearance of valve and piston –2.
○Adjust the valve clearance and valve timing. ○Remove the cylinder head, and put a small piece of modeling clay on the hollow of piston
to prevent valve from coming in contact.
○Install the cylinder head and adjust the camshaft chain timing. ○Turn the crankshaft by two rotations or more. ○Remove the cylinder head and measure the thickness of the clay. The thickness of the
collapsed clay is a clearance of the valve and the piston.

Cylinder Head

Before reassemble the cylinder head grind off the stepped portions of the port and
smooth the inside of ports to make intake/exhaust gas flow smooth.
○Grind off the stepped portions only at the mating surface between the carburetor holder
and the intake port.
○When using the kit camshaft (49118-0034), grind off the inside of the intake port to extent
1mm from the original port diameter for improve the performance.
○Mark the carburetor holders so that they can be installed in their original positions. ○Grind off and smooth the stepped portions at the mating surface between the valve seat
and the port.
○Smooth the inside of the intake port and exhaust port.
Chamfer the machining edge of the cylinder head where the valve seat installed, also
smooth the dome of the combustion chamber with the valves installed. Excessive smoothing may reduce the cylinder compression.
Use the hand grinder.
○Use #200 oil stone for eliminating any stepped portion and #300 oil stone for finishing.
NOTE
○These procedures make air resistance less and intake/exhaust gas flow more smooth.
However, much more ef fect can not be expected by excessive grinding and smoothing. It may be done to the extent of getting rid of uneven surfaces.
A: Stepped Portions B: Grind off the rib to 5 mm : Grind Area ( All around port )
11
The combustion chambers are modified by cutting work but the edges shown must be
hand finished for smooth corners.
NOTE
○When grinding the cylinder head surface or using thinner gasket, adjust the valve timing
to keep that the valve to piston clearance is not less than the minimum value (IN: 0.7 mm, EX: 1.2 mm).

Cylinder Compression

To adjust the cylinder compression, adjust the thickness of the cylinder head gasket or
smooth the cylinder head under surface or cylinder top surface to make the piston squish
0.65 mm. Keep the piston squish more than 0.65 mm.
○Grind off the cylinder head under surface to 0.4 mm. Do not grind the cylinder upper
surface. This can raise the compression ratio while keeping the clearance of the piston and valve, and one of the squish. Although, as the engine machining is uneven, determine the cutting dimension after keeping the recess and the squish before machining.
○Position the piston at Top Dead Center, and put a small piece of modeling clay on the
shoulder of the piston. Install the cylinder head gasket and cylinder head, and tighten the head bolts to the specified torque.
○Remove the cylinder head and measure the thickness of the clay. The thickness of the
collapsed clay is the size of the squish.
○The most preferable squish measurement is 0.65 mm. ○Select proper cylinder head gasket.

Pistons

Kit Piston: SB (1) 13001-0077 Kit pistons are exclusive the two piston rings for reduce the compression height
(between the center of piston pin hole and the shoulder of the piston) and the mechanical friction loss.
Kit piston has more reduced the weight compared the original piston. To adjust the cylinder compression to 14.3, use the kit pistons and grind off the cylinder
head under surface to 0.4 mm.
○Always use the higher octane rating gasoline for prevent the knocking.
Use the kit piston rings and kit piston pins. When replacing the kit pistons with the original pistons, inspect the squish (refer to the
Cylinder Compression section).
13
(2) 13001-0078 Kit pistons are exclusive the two piston rings for reduce the compression height
(dimension between the center of piston pin hole to shoulder of the piston) and the mechanical friction loss.
Kit piston has more reduced the weight compared the original piston. To adjust the cylinder compression to 14.5, use the kit pistons and remodel the original
cylinder head.
Use the kit piston rings and kit piston pins. When replacing the kit pistons with the original pistons, inspect the squish (refer to the
Cylinder Compression section).
Remodel the cylinder head according to the following figure. The specified squish is 0.60 to 0.65 mm: front and rear, and 0.60 to 0.67 mm: left and
right side.
Replace the cylinder head gasket with the thinner or thicker one or grind the side squish
portions of the combustion chamber and the piston head with the emery cloth if the squish is without the specified range.
Note: Remodel the cylinder head following below.
○Grind the around the valve seats in the combustion camber until taking up the edges and
smoothing, and then polish the combustion chamber lightly. Do not polish too much because the cylinder compression decreases.
○At this time, do so as not to damage the valve seat with the valve installed. ○Do not damage the 90°valve seating surface during the cylinder head modification.
14
Note: Use the kit pistons (13001-0077, -0078) following below.
○Use the kit connecting rod assemblies (13251-0015). ○Use the kit piston rings (13008-0019). ○There are the machining edges for the valve relief portions of the piston heads. Must be
hand finished for smooth corners. (Round the corner to R1)

Clutch Adjustment (Back-Torque Limiter Setting)

The Ninja ZX-10R engine is equipped with the Kawasaki back-torque limiter mechanism in the clutch. The back-torque limiter works to reduce the chance of rear wheel hop caused by engine braking during hard braking and down shifting. The back-torque limiter operating condition can be changed by changing the total thickness of clutch plates and changing the number of leaf springs. Try different settings and select the best.
The standard setting of length [A], total thickness of clutch plates shown below, becomes
about 53.5 mm (t 2.9 × 7 pcs. + t 2.6 × 2 pcs.). For this setting the effective stroke of clutch spring plate during the back-torque limiter operation is adjusted between 0.45 and
0.75 mm.
By increasing the effective stroke the back-torque limiter causes more slip. The
effective stroke increases by decreasing the length [A]. The length [A] between 51.9 and
53.5 mm is available by changing the combination of the steel plates. Replace one steel plate with a thinner one and try the setting. If the operation of the back-torque limiter is not enough replace other steel plates one by one.

※ The steel plate (t 1.6 13089-0005) is the standard part for ZX-6RR.
20
When decreasing the length [A], total thickness of clutch plates, use the kit spring retainers (provided as optional production parts) to keep the preload of clutch springs according to the table below.

※ If you have clutch slip during acceleration use shorter spring retainers by one size to
increase preload of clutch springs.
The original springs and retainers can be used if the length [A] is between 51.9 ~ 53.5
mm.
For precise setting the measurement of the effective stroke of clutch spring plate is
recommended.

Engage the cam followers (Clutch Hub) with the cams (Sub Clutch Hub).
To measure the effective stroke of clutch spring plate, set a dial gauge [A] against the
raised center [B] of the clutch spring plate.
Move the clutch housing gear back and forth [C]. The difference between the highest and lowest gauge readings is the amount of the effective stroke of clutch spring plate.
[D] Drive Shaft
After installing the clutch to the engine, measure and record the depth [B] shown below,
the length from the clutch spring plate to the top surface of the sub clutch hub, using a caliper or a depth gauge. Manage the depth [B] to adjust the effective stroke after that, because the friction disks would be worn and the length [A] would change. The decrease of the depth [B] from the initial setting shows the increase of the effective stroke of clutch spring plate from the value initially measured.
