Kawasaki Ninja 400

About
The Kawasaki Ninja 400 is a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Ninja 300, offering a more powerful and refined riding experience. Powered by a 399cc parallel-twin engine, it produces 45hp and 37Nm of torque in its BS6 avatar, making it one of the most powerful bikes in its segment. The bike features a trellis frame, a 310mm front disc brake, and Dunlop tyres that provide excellent grip and handling. The ergonomics are generally comfortable, with a lower seat height that makes it accessible for riders of various heights. The LED lights and new livery add to its aesthetic appeal. With its sharp design, excellent rideability, and strong performance, the Ninja 400 is an engaging and rewarding motorcycle that is well-suited for both daily riding and weekend long rides. However, the pillion seat can be stiff and uncomfortable for long-distance rides, which is something to consider for riders who often carry a passenger.

USER OPINION

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Kawasaki Ninja 400 is a stellar addition to the Indian motorcycle market, offering a perfect blend of speed, agility, and comfort. From my experience, the bikes 399cc parallel-twin engine delivers brisk acceleration and a powerful performance, making it stand out in its class. The handling is precise and stable, especially around corners, thanks to its trellis frame and well-tuned suspension. While the ergonomics are generally comfortable, the seats incline can be a bit awkward during braking. The brakes are significantly improved over the Ninja 300, providing strong and progressive feedback. However, the high price point due to its CBU (Completely Built Unit) import from Thailand might be a deterrent for some buyers. Despite this, the Ninja 400 is a rewarding ride that justifies its cost for those seeking a high-performance motorcycle.
Price
The Kawasaki Ninja 400 comes with a premium price tag in India. As of the latest updates, the ex-showroom price is around 4.99 lakh, although this can vary slightly depending on the state and local taxes. On-road prices, including registration, insurance, and other costs, can push the total to approximately 5.5 lakh to 6 lakh. This pricing is largely due to the bike being imported as a CBU from Thailand, which increases its cost. While it may seem steep, especially when compared to other bikes in the 300-400cc segment, the Ninja 400s performance, build quality, and overall riding experience make it a worthwhile investment for serious motorcycle enthusiasts.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 12:14 PM When it comes to mileage, the Kawasaki Ninja 400 is not the most fuel-efficient option, but it is reasonable given its performance-oriented nature. You can expect an average mileage of around 25-30 kml in mixed riding conditions, which is decent for a bike of its class. However, this can vary based on riding style, road conditions, and maintenance of the bike. For those concerned about running costs, its important to consider that the Ninja 400s fuel efficiency is a trade-off for its exceptional performance and handling capabilities.

Plenty of features to make a comfortable and enjoyable ride

Sucheta Kundu | 2 years ago

The Ninja is a great bike for those of us with bigger frames, but it's not just about that. The comfortable seat, the well-designed tank, the slightly raised bars, and the sculpted seat all combine to create a riding experience that is comfortable and enjoyable. The adjustable front levers give you the ability to customize the bike to your own preferences, and even with my 6 foot 4 frame I had no problems with the legroom.

The Ninja is also incredibly responsive, with the rear brake lever feeling natural and well thought out. The clutch and brake levers were also very easy to operate and the position of them was comfortable.

The Z125 is a great option for those who are taller than 6 foot 1. It's perfect for city riding and the low seat height gives plenty of leg room. It's also comfortable to ride and it's very responsive.

Overall, the Kawasaki Ninja125 is a great bike, with plenty of features to make them comfortable and enjoyable to ride. Whether you're tall or short, the Ninja 125 has something to offer.

The power delivery was smooth and progressive

Barun Kumar | 2 years ago

The Kawasaki Ninja 125 has an impressive power delivery, especially from a standstill. The light clutch lever makes it much easier to manage, and the gears shift into place easily. Despite changing gears often, I never felt fatigued, and I was even able to get a few clutchless upshifts. At higher speeds and revs, there was a noticeable buzz in the mirrors, but it wasn't uncomfortable or overly intrusive. All in all, the power delivery was smooth and progressive, allowing for a comfortable ride even after a long day.

The Kawasaki Ninja 125 comes with an 11-litre fuel tank capacity, which is enough to get you to your destination and back with some to spare. The fuel efficiency range is also quite good, with an ARAI-measured mileage of 48 kmpl and an even better top speed of 120 km/h. The acceleration is also quite good, with 0-60 kmph in just 6 seconds and 0-100 kmph in 10 seconds.

The Kawasaki Ninja 125 is a bike that can switc

Kanishk Goyal | 2 years ago
helpful 0

The Kawasaki Ninja 125 is a bike that can switch between two identities with ease. On one hand, it can be used as a reliable everyday commuter, offering dependable and consistent performance. On the other hand, when ridden aggressively, the Ninja can truly come alive and transform into a beast. Unfortunately, I am not yet skilled enough to take full advantage of the Ninja's full potential, but I can definitely attest to its reliability as a commuter. The Ninja 125 is not meant to be someone's first bike, as it is better suited to those with more experience and a bigger budget. But for those who are willing to take the plunge, the Ninja 125 can be a thrilling and rewarding experience.
