| Nimble handling, an exceptional personality and a low price tag highlight Kawasakis Ninja® 250R sportbike, while its UNI-TRAK® rear suspension, petal disc brakes and gas-sipping twin-cylinder engine contribute to its class leading performance and value. Its no surprise the Ninja 250R is such a strong seller. |
|
| Details & Features |
|
| Exhaust system |
• 2-into-1 system contributes to the Ninja 250R’s low and mid-range torque and smooth, step-free power curve
• Slightly upswept silencer extensively tested to determine chamber size, connecting pipe length and diameter to achieve least noise and most power
• Meets strict emissions with dual catalyzers; one in the collector pipe and the other in the silencer
• Using two catalyzers minimizes the power loss
• Positioning the first catalyzer as close to the exhaust ports maximizes its efficiency as well
|
|
| Cylinder head |
• Intake and exhaust ports contribute to good off-idle response and smooth power delivery Valve timing and lift designed for strong low
• and mid-range torque
• Direct valve actuation helps ensure reliable high-rpm operability
• Thin heads and stems on valves for reduced reciprocating weight
|
|
| DOHC 249cc Parallel Twin-cylinder Engine |
• Compact parallel-twin design offers good mass centralization for superior handling
• Tuned to deliver smooth, step-free power with an emphasis on low and mid-range power for rider-friendly response
• Pistons feature reinforced heads and strengthening in the pin boss area for increased durability
• Thick piston (longitudinally) rings help prevent oil consumption
• Combustion chamber design optimized to maximize combustion efficiency and reduce emissions
• Ample highrpm performance will please riders using the full range of the engine
|
|
| Carburetor |
• Fine-tuned twin Keihin CVK30 carburetors offer good power feel and low fuel consumption
|
|
| Reduced mechanical noise |
• Prevents loose cam chain and reduces power-robbing friction loss
• Eliminating mechanical noise allows the use of a freer flowing exhaust for a better performance
• Complex construction with reinforcing ribs helps eliminate airbox reverberation and reduce intake noise
• Air filter accessible from the side, for easy replacement
|
|
| Liquid Cooling |
• Latest generation Denso radiator offers superior cooling with minimal space and weight
• Ring-fan uses a quiet-running motor that also saves space
• Fins on the lower side of the crankcase further helps cool the engine
|
|
| Six-speed Transmission / Clutch |
• Involute splines reduce friction and backlash between gears and shafts for easier gear meshing and smooth shifting under power
• Spring-type clutch damper reduces jerkiness at very low speeds and minimizes shocks when rolling on and off the throttle for a smoother clutch feel
• Paper-base friction plates help increase clutch durability
|
|
| Chassis |
• Sturdy and durable diamond-style frame of thick-walled steel tubing offers confidence-inspiring stability at both high and low speeds
• Beefy swingarm bracket contributes to the frame’s rigidity and helps achieve an ideal chassis stiffness balance
• Square-tube swingarm with a 60 x 30mm cross-section further adds to rigidity
|
|
| Suspension |
• 37mm telescopic front fork with firm settings contribute to the Ninja 250R’s smooth, stable handling and enhanced ride control
• UNI-TRAK® rear suspension compliments the rigid frame and provides great road holding ability
• Rear shock features 5-way adjustable preload, enabling ride height to be maintained whether riding solo or with a passenger
|
|
| Wheels |
• Features 17” wheels like its larger supersport brothers
• Low-profile sportbike tires on wide rims contribute to its easy, neutral handling at low speeds
|
|
| Brakes |
• Large-diameter, 290mm front petal disc and a balanced action two-piston caliper offers excellent braking performance and a natural, direct feeling at the lever
• Two-piston caliper grips the rear 220mm petal disc
|
|
| Ergonomics |
• Natural riding position with slightly forward-slanting seat and wide, raised handlebars
|
|
| Bodywork |
• Styling, fit and finish of striking full-fairing bodywork match its Ninja supersport siblings
• Aggressive dual-lamp headlight design, slim tail cowl and separate seats further enhance the supersport look
• Front cowling and windscreen offer the rider a substantial amount of wind protection
• Two helmet holders conveniently located under the rear seat
• Under-seat storage can hold a U-lock or similar device
• Two hooks under the tail and the rear passenger pegs provide anchor points for securing items to the rear of the bike
|
|
| Instrumentation |
• Instrument panel features an easy-to-read, large-face analog speedometer along with an analog tachometer, odometer, trip meter, fuel gauge and warning lights
