Catalyzer
- To meet emissions limits and make even more power at the same time, all models have a pre-catalyzer in the pipe leading to the muffler
- California models also have a catalyzer in the muffler

Info right from Kawasaki.

I just got mine this morning, and I love it also. Congrats on the new bike!

I only had time for 50 or so miles on mine today, but I'm loving it! Looks like the next two days for weather in our area are going to be awesome!

Congrats on the new ZZR Only 50 miles, now change the oil and filter. To get rid of the fine metal shavings. I changed mine at 20 miles and then it can be changed at the regular service intervals.
