India Kawasaki now has the Kawasaki Ninja 650 in three different options - Kawasaki Racing Team, metallic black and a blue colour edition. The Kawasaki Ninja 650 KRT edition is priced at Rs. 5.69 lakh (ex-showroom). The 2019 Kawasaki Ninja 650 is available in black and KRT and gets no other cosmetic or technical changes, while the blue colour is available as a 2018 model year version. In 2017, the Kawasaki Ninja 650 got a significant upgrade, with styling changes and a lighter overall weight as well, and was available in two colours - KRT and blue.

"With this launch, we are continuing with a string of MY 2019 launches in India. In 650cc category we have four distinct motorcycles and Ninja 650 is one of them. We have observed a very stable demand for Ninja 650 in India at it comes with attractive price. I hope our Ninja 650 in metallic spark black achieves the same success as the other variants have," said Yutaka Yamashita, Managing Director, India Kawasaki Motors.
