Kawasaki Ninja 250SL

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.
