Our most affordable sportbike. The ZZ-R250 attracts new riders with its easy handling and user-friendly features like an In-Line Twin engine with reliable electric start, easy clutch action and a Positive Neutral Finder. But most of all, the ZZ-R250 shares the Ninja® reputation for Good Times™ — at a great price.

The smallest of Kawasaki’s sportbikes is the NINJA® 250R. It delivers big performance and loads of styling, including three different color choices, wrapped in an attractively priced package.

Features:

– Compact DOHC Twin cylinder engine. 4 valves per cylinder. Lightweight alloy cylinder head. High-compression, lightweight alloy pistons. Advanced liquid-cooling.

– Maintenance chores are minimized with an automatic cam chain tensioner, silent-type cam chain, low-friction coating on chain guides, plus a low-maintenance battery.

– Easy-to-select 6-speed transmission with Kawasaki’s convenient Positive Neutral Finder.

– Diamond high-tensile steel frame and advanced suspension components including the single shock UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system.

– Stainless steel disc brakes front and rear. Balanced Actuation front brake caliper for consistent wear and performance.

– Light overall dry weight, low seat height, electric starter, rider-friendly ergonomics, and a 4 gallon (18 L) fuel tank make the 250R a great introduction to the world of sportbikes.

– Comprehensive instrumentation includes large speedometer and tachometer.

– Retractable bungee cord hooks add convenience and style.
