Overview
Kawasaki has marketed the Ninja 250R since 1986 as an entry-level sport motorcycle intended for use on paved roads. The bike is marketed in the us as the Ninja 250R, as the ZX250 in the UK, and as the GPX250 elsewhere. Bajaj India has launched the much awaited kawasaki ninja 250r in Indian market.
But it is not going to compare with other R15, Karizma ZMR due to price tag for Ninja is mind boggling 2.69 L (Ex- showroom India).
performance Figures Of Kawasaki Ninja 250R:
1) 0-100km/h : 5.75 sec
2) Top speed : 176km/h
3) Fuel economy : 42.5 Kmpl – Claimed By Bajaj India
Ninja 250R features refined intake and exhaust ports contribute to good off-idle response and smooth power delivery. Also the valve timing and lift has been designed for strong low- and mid-range torque while direct valve actuation ensures reliable high-rpm operability. And valves with thin heads and stems reduce reciprocating weight with 2-into-1 exhaust system contributes to the Ninja 250R's low- and mid-range torque and smooth, step-free power curve. It meets strict emissions with dual catalyzers; one in the collector pipe and the other in the silencer positioning the first catalyzer as close to the exhaust ports maximizes its efficiency as well.
The fourth-generation model is marketed as the Ninja 250R in all markets. The motorcycle is also referred to by its platform designation, EX250, to which a generational suffix is attached. In the United States, previous generations of the bike (EX250-E/F/G/H) were already being marketed as members of the “Ninja” family of sportbikes, while outside of the U.S. the bike was known variously as the ZZR-250, ZX-250, or as the GPX-250R. One of the earliest generations, the EX250-C, was given the name GPZ-250.
Since the introduction of the model in 1986, the Ninja 250 has been often used as a “starting class” bike in club racing around the world. The AFM in California has been especially involved with 250 Production racing since the bike was released, including the since faded Honda VTR250.

is ninja the right 250cc bike 4 the class of roads in india?????????
plz reply fast……..
Ninja 250r is one of the best selling 250cc bikes around the world….people who think that prize of ninja is high,they r completely wrong………….no other 250cc bike would provide u such comfort, handling, power ang excitement of riding a 2500cc bike as ninja does……..with 33bhp and 250cc, the mileage ninja provide(35kmpl-42kmpl) is awsome…………so NINJA is the best sports bike 4 all bikers who r graduating at the world of bikes……..
Kawasaki Ninja top speed is not 176 kph. Speedometer is not accurate.
The Ninja’s top speed is 158 kph. Check it out.
Plz provide me address of sree ram bajaj auto in ghatkopar
this is only the bike through which indians can achive their experience on a sport bike,,,the price does not matters , but feel the ride of 33 bhp n 250 cc, i have this machine n different experience daily,,,enjoy,.,.,.,.,.,,,,,,,,…
this is only the bike through which the indians can achive experience of a sports bike, i have this machine n feel different experience daily,,
225 cc bikes r available in less then 1 lac,just adding 75 cc more shud nt raise the price to 3 lacs!!!!!u r simply paying 4 the world famous NINJA tag …
wait for honda’s CBR 250…..all specs r same except tht ninja is 32 PS cbr is 27 ps
so mileage will be 101% better for cbr
ninja is too costly…. i have a pulsar220 with k&n filter…. it gives a max speed of 170kmph…. ninja also gives the same speed…. so why do i pay 2l more???? i m happy with it and can proudly say i m the fastest indian….
but ninja is ninja as like u have dosa to eat in a local hotel costing RS 25/-,but u spend RS 100/- to eat the same dosa in a taj hotel,,,,,,,,do u get my point dude……
Dude Yamaha RD 350 is the best i can tell you .I don’t think any present day bikes can compete with it.
Can you come for a challenge.
HEY NINJA OWNERS,CAN U TELL ME THE ACTUAL MILEAGE OF NINJA,WHAT MILEAGE DO U ALL GET IN UR NINJA,PLZ TELL D TRUTH,THANK U
