NINJA ZX-25R SPECIAL EDITION

$14,995

Since the arrival of the 2008 Ninja 250R, the 250cc full-fairing sports class has been dominated by Twins. But a new contender for the 250cc crown has arrived. Kawasaki is proud to present the Ninja ZX-25R, an all-new 250cc supersport model powered by the an In-Line Four. A shining example of the performance offered by Ninja ZX machines, this long-awaited model was created for discerning, sports-minded customers longing for a racy street machine with high circuit-riding potential.

Harnessing this class-defining In-Line Four performance, the high-tensile steel trellis frame is no less impressive. Racing feedback brings World Superbike chassis design thinking to the 250cc class. Numerous class-firsts (like SFF-BP front suspension and Horizontal Back-Link rear suspension) are complemented by other high-performance components that contribute to a package offering both nimble, supersport-style handling on the circuit and easy manoeuvrability in town.

FEATURES

KTRC KAWASAKI TRACTION CONTROL

The Ninja ZX-25R is the first 250cc model to feature traction control. Kawasaki’s
advanced system provides both enhanced sport riding performance and the peace of mind under certain conditions to negotiate low-traction surfaces with confidence. Three rider-selectable modes offer progressively greater levels of intrusion to suit the riding situation and rider preference.

HIGH-GRADE SUSPENSION

The Ninja ZX-25R’s ø37 mm inverted fork uses SFF-BP (Separate Function Fork – Big Piston) internals. Combining the concepts of Showa SFF and BPF, this advanced fork offers both racetrack performance and everyday usability. At the rear, Horizontal Back-link rear suspension offers a progressive character that contributes to the bike’s supersport-style handling. Both make their debut in the 250cc class. For 2023, the front suspension is adjustable.

ALL-LED LIGHTING

Twin LED headlights, each featuring low and high beam as well as a position lamp, help the Ninja ZX-25R stand out while providing excellent illumination. LED taillight inspired by the Ninja ZX-10R adds a sophisticated, high-grade touch to the rear of the bike.

IN-LINE 4 PERFORMANCE

Kawasaki’s compact new 250cc liquid-cooled DOHC In-Line Four engine is the only one of its kind in the 250cc class. Developed with feedback from other Ninja ZX models, the high-performance engine offers class-leading power and a rev range that extends beyond 17,000 min-1.

KQS – KAWASAKI QUICK SHIFTER

Allowing riders to take even greater advantage of the Ninja ZX-25R’s exhilarating engine character, the quick shifter – a first for the 250cc class – enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and quick and easy deceleration. Further, when riding in the city, not having to use the clutch repeatedly greatly contributes to rider comfort.

DOHC, 16-VALVE

Like all Ninja ZX A models, the Ninja ZX-25R features a DOHC, 16-valve arrangement. Its small, intricate parts – not unlike those of a high-precision timepiece – must pass strict quality control and assembly checks to ensure the engine’s high-performance.
