Powered by a compact liquid-cooled two-cylinder engine, the sporty Ninja appeals both ends of the spectrum of experience - Experienced pilots will appreciate the extra power of the road Ninja compared to other bikes in the 250 class, while beginners love the seamless delivery of torque at low speeds. With the road superior performance, aggressive supersport bodywork and a price tag that packs serious value, the Ninja 250 is an ideal way to embark on a life of pleasure rider.

249 cc liquid-cooled, parallel twin engine is optimized for a smooth, predictable power delivery in the city and the excellent performance of the road, while the smooth six-speed gearbox Positive Neutral Finder offers the right gear for almost all situations. This powerful engine and gearbox to help provide a Ninja 250 a lot of pleasure in the initial learning curve, all the way through advanced sport riding and track days.

Surrounded by an aerodynamic fairing and windshield modern, not the 250 only look great but also offers effective wind deflector for a wide range of driving situations. An easy to read instrument panel with fuel gauge and neutral indicator is another interesting feature in the new rider.
