| Vehicle Overview | |||
| Kawasaki Ninja 250R was discontinued to make way for the Ninja 300 in India. The twin-cylinder, 249cc machine was good for 32.5 HP and 22 Nm of torque. It was last sold for INR 3.03 lakh and had no direct rivals during its popularity. It came with a single headlight design while the new Ninja 300 supported dual headlights with a more appealing design. Internationally, Ninja 250 competes against Yamaha R25 and Hyosung GD250R. | Kawasaki Ninja 250SL is an expected product for the Indian market. It comes with a single cylinder, 249cc engine producing 27.62 BHP and 22.6 Nm of torque. The bike is the biggest single cylinder engine being offered by Kawasaki as they start manufacturing twin cylinder motors from 250cc itself. It could be the first ever product from Kawasaki that is manufactured purely in India. Ninja 250SL would carry a price tag below INR 2 lakh if locally assembled and would rival the Honda CBR250R in terms of performance and body type. | NA | |
