The Kawasaki ZX1400 Ninja ZX-14R ABS uses H11 and H9 bulb sizes for high beam headlight applications, with H9 and H11 sizes for low beam headlight configurations. The replacement chart covers 2013 through 2023 model years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The H9 and H11 bulbs are the two bulb types specified across all listed model years for the Kawasaki ZX1400 Ninja ZX-14R ABS headlight positions.
Both the H9 and H11 are single-filament halogen bulbs operating at 12 volts and conforming to ECE standards, giving them approval for use in Europe, worldwide markets, and the United States.
The H9 operates at 65 watts, while the H11 operates at 55 watts, making the two bulbs electrically incompatible as direct substitutes despite their physical similarities.
The H9 uses a PGJ19-5 base and the H11 uses a PGJ19-2 base, meaning the two types are not physically interchangeable even though both belong to the PGJ19 base family.
For model years 2013-2020, the high beam position takes an H9 and the low beam position takes an H11.
In the 2023 model year, the high beam and low beam assignments are reversed relative to earlier years, with the high beam position taking an H11 and the low beam position taking an H9.
Installing an H9 in a socket designated for an H11 would introduce a 10-watt increase in power draw, which may exceed the circuit's rated load for that position.
