Overview

Evolution?

Positively Comfortable

Relaxed rider triangle accommodates a wide range of rider sizes and riding situations. Compared to some other models (whose somewhat extreme riding position compromises comfort), the elevated handle position and slightly foot-forward footpeg position put the rider in a position to control the bike while also offering rider comfort.

Concept

Confidence Inspiring

Your Best Freind

Easy to use is the key, as the compact chassis has been designed to be as user-friendly as possible. Predictable handling thanks to a chassis conceived with light weight, manoeuvrability, and mass centralisation in mind provides excellent feel and inspiring confidence for a wide range of riders. The easy handling also facilitates manoeuvring when parking.

Design

The Ninja Philosophy

Beauty in technology.

No matter from what angle the Ninja 500 is seen, its distinctive front face and sleek, flowing lines make it clear that this is a member of the Ninja family, with race-inspired, big-bike looks. The shape of the full-fairing bodywork fosters a sense of unity with the rider, helping them feel at one with the bike.

Engine

Unmistakable heartbeat

Legendary Kawasaki twin cylinder engine.

The power available from the 451 cm3 engine is found through the entire rpm range to make it easy for riders to use, no matter what kind of riding they are doing, from low-end power for accelerating off the line in the city to top-end revs for riding on the highway. The engine in the new Ninja 500 is up the task, no matter what it may be.

Instruments

LCD or TFT ??

All the creature comforts

Both the full LCD instrument panel on the standard models and the TFT display on the SE models offer smartphone connectivity, enabling riders to connect with their machines to enjoy display notifications, riding logs, and community features.

In addition to the TFT full colour dash, the Kawasaki Ninja 500 also benefits from Ki-Pass. Kawasaki’s keyless ignition system.

Comfort

Low Seat Height

With A Narrow Waist!!

While seat height is 785 mm, the slim design of both the seat and the rear of the engine gives riders an unobstructed line for their feet to reach the ground. The seat’s flat shape offers ample padding in the front portion without sacrificing the comfortable reach to the ground, which helps riders enjoy the bike with confidence.

Seats with thick cushioning and low-rebound urethane contribute to superb ride comfort. The Ninja 500’s largevolume bodywork also offers great wind protection, further contributing to ride comfort.

Chassis

Lightweight

Predictable

The Ninja 500 features a trellis frame similar in design to that of the Ninja H2. Kawasaki’s advanced dynamic rigidity analysis was used to ensure optimum rigidity with light weight. The engine is rigid-mounted and used as a stressed member. The frame design contributes significantly to the bike’s low curb mass.

The chassis has a supersport-style short-wheelbase/longswingarm design, complemented by an optimised trail setting that delivers light, natural handling. The bike’s light weight also contributes to the easy handling and facilitates manoeuvring when off the bike, such as when parking.

USB Socket

Everything at your fingertips

Only on Ninja 500 SE

The SE version of the Ninja 500 also comes with a very useful waterproof USB C socket.
