Q. Should I buy Ninja 1000SX or Ninja 650?
  • Both bikes come in different price ranges. Kawasaki has done a smashing job of making the Ninja 650 a whole lot sportier than before. This sporty vibe stems from its Ninja ZX-6R-inspired looks and builds further with the revv-happy motor that surrounds you with a lovely raspy soundtrack. The suspension setup too is well-tuned to tackle bad tarmac stretches. There are a few drawbacks like the erratic ABS intervention, low ground clearance and tyres that don’t perform too well in wet conditions. The latter two can be solved by taking extreme precaution over oversized speed humps and by swapping out the tyres for something grippier. The ABS calibration issue can be a bit unnerving but you will have to pay more heed when grabbing the brakes. As a whole though, the Ninja 650 BS6 certainly appeals to both the mind as well as the heart, making it a good option for someone who wants to go out there and buy their first proper big bike. On the other hand, If budget is not a issue and looking for a better power performance at a price and often go for long rides, Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX would be a good option. However, it is a bit heavier side and a bit difficult to handle in narrow roads or in city conditions. Apart from it, it offers better feature list, riding modes and better road grip. Also, it is the cheapest bike in its segment that delivers 142 PS/111 Nm. You may compare both bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
Q. What is the difference between Ninja 1000 and Z1000?
  • Ninja 1000 is a sports tourer Z 1000 is a super naked a real ninja.
  • Basically z1000 is street bike and Ninja 1000 is sports bike in traffic conditions z is easy to maneuver in high way Ninja is the best
  • Ninja 1000 better. Anytime. Any day

    Brutal option 

    The ninja 1000 sx is currently the most-affordable litre-class sports bike that money will get you in india.It's affordable only because kawasaki has been kind enough to offer a little less of a brutal option in its portfolio, For those who want to experience inline-four performance without the terror.

    Driving Experience Is Really Good 

    The driving experience is really good, The bike doesn't vibrate at all when reached 100+ km. The mileage is not what we get with common bikes but that's what we have got with superbikes. The sound is the most fascinating talent of the bike.
