Recently Asked User Questions
- The Ninja’s newfound soft touch has grown it into a more agreeable and well-rounded motorcycle that will allow it to fulfil more roles and appeal to more riders than before. It definitely feels more upmarket too, thanks to the new design and lengthier features list, so there’s no problem justifying the premium over the BS4 bike. It’s also the one here that gives you a big-bike feel from the saddle, which the Z, with its 390 Duke-like proportions, doesn’t succeed at. on the other hand, the naked in the lineup has gone in a whole different direction. The Z650 was once the pragmatic, sensible choice in the 650 lineup, a sort of jack of all trades. Previously most at home in an urban environment, this BS6 update has introduced chinks in the Z’s armour in the form of harsh low-speed ride quality and a suspension setup that feels crude and unsophisticated. These changes alienate the once-friendly Z, and our recommendation would hence be to shell out the extra Rs 30,000 (a rather insignificant premium at this price point) and go for the fully faired sibling. You may compare both bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride for better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
- But what CBR 650r i mean the sound of in line 4 cylinders.. that is a huge missing with Kawasaki's twin parallel cylinders.. Once a CBR fan remains always a CBR FAN..Bcuz I had CBR 150R then Afterwards CBR250R.. Now waiting for CBR650R BS6 model..There's no comparison between CBR650R and Ninja 650..Im sorry if anyone got hurt with words.. but my Heart always fall for CBR only..❤️
- CBR650R makes more power and at higher RPM and makes slightly lesser torque. Ninja being a twin cylinder engine makes more torque at lower rpm although it makes lesser power. Ninja 650 is good for long distance cruising. CBR with the 4 cylinder engine gives a sporty riding experience and makes more top speed than Ninja 650.
- Honda reliability where kawasaki stands for refinement. Go for zx6r

Z6504.6Like most of the people
Like most of the people here I don't own kawasaki z650 2020 model but still I am writing this review. I don't know how others know about the pros and cons of the bike without riding it. Please wait for the test ride and thereafter you can reveiw it. As per my research it is one of the best entry level sports bike.

Z6504.6Main issue
The main issue is the ground clearance Heating issue is a bit on the hard side but still it heats a lot and i drove it only for 30 minutes but it was like burning. No proper exhaust as Benneli and a bit of clutch issues.... cuz slipper clutch doesn't work the way it should

Z6504.6Daily commute
The Z650 is a bike which you can use for weekend fun ride or for daily commute. The 650 engine is peppy and can generate torque in any gear. The engine is very good and no problem so far. The maintenance cost is a little high apart from that its a fun to ride motorcycle

Ninja 6505.0Lovely machine
Have been owning this lovely machine since the past 7 years now.But every time i twist the throttle it feels as crisp as day one.It was a childhood dream of owning a kawasaki ninja ever since i had been watching a green ninja in our locality when i was about 15 years old.This bike is a bag full of everything you need to quench your thirst about motorcycle riding.It is always ready to take anything from bumper to bumper traffic as well as long hauls on the highway.The low and linear torque is what makes it special to be ridden in any riding environment.Its 650cc, 72bhp mill amazes you with a linear pick up, Non tiring long highway riding comfort, As well as its super efficient fuel economy.This kwacker is a daily riding calm machine.Tell you take it on the highway and unleash it to see a completely different side of it.And all this at a very affordable service cost with usual service intervals of 6months or 5-6k kms which i follow comes to around 5000-6000₹ depending on consumbles.Just remember not to drop the bike because kawasaki is a pocket burner in such repair costs.Overall it is one of the best big motorcycles available in the indian market today.

Ninja 6504.6It is an excellent commuter.I
It is an excellent commuter.I rode it every day 100km.It is tolerable on rides of 2-3 hours.I have not had any mechanical issues with it in 34000 km.It is fast enough and very stable.My commute speeds usually ranged from 100 - 150 kmph no problem.I have driven the bike on trips and commutes as fast as 185kmph.It is not a superbike but it will leave most cars and traffic in my rearview.

Ninja 6505.0Long rides
I own the bike and i can tell it's really good if you want to go on long rides or make hilly trips.But i would suggest you to change the exhaust to get some ground clearance.The tires are good but not so good on sharp turns on high speeds.
