The wonderfully balanced and incredibly thrilling Ninja 650 maintains the “Fun, Style, Easy” philosophy of its predecessor. It boasts a 650cc Parallel Twin engine with a strong low-mid range concentration and a lightweight chassis in a thin, middleweight package. New tyres provide lighter handling, and engine improvements increase midrange torque and produce cleaner emissions. Sharp new style provides a sharper appearance and even stronger Ninja family looks, enhanced by new LED headlights and TFT colour instruments.
