Pros Cons of Kawasaki Ninja 650

Pros

  • Refined engine
  • Comfortable riding posture
  • Value-friendly

Cons

  • Dated design
  • Slightly heavier
  • Low ground clearance

Verdict

The Ninja 650 may be a middleweight, but it feels like a small bike, and it doesn't have the intake roar or exhaust note associated with a high-performance motorcycle. It feels at ease handling traffic, and is equally comfortable on the highway, if you're in the mood for occasional long-distance touring. If you're looking to upgrade from a smaller bike, or you're new to motorcycling, the Kawasaki Ninja 650 could well be all the bike you need.

Pros Cons Kawasaki KX250F

Pros

  • Powerful dirt bike
  • Lightweight
  • Great handler

Cons

  • Not street legal
  • Stiff ride quality
  • Not for novice riders

Verdict

Kawasaki is one of the very few manufacturers who have officially launched off-road ready dirt bikes in India. One of the dirt bikes on offer is the KX250. It is not road-legal, therefore, riding the dirt bike should be restricted to off-road trails and tracks only. The KX250 was launched in 2017 but the updated 2018 edition introduces a host of improvements including an updated engine with more torque and revised suspension setup. It is a good dirt bike for novice and pros alike.
