The quarter litre Ninja aint for those who dream of Super bike not for those who expect to get a good fuel efficiency. Its a sport driven market in which this Quater Litre would impact, gone are the days of Comet 250 as we welcome the new generation.

This is neither like Yamaha’s R15 nor like a Comet.
R15 is sporty when you talk about its seating possition but it lacks power and even a Pulsar beats the day lights out of the skinny R15. But when you talk about Ninja, its really the name that mesmerizes minds of million. Small displacement usually is synonymous with efficiency and agility in the city. While the Kawasaki Ninja 250R boasts these two attributes, it’s a radical departure from the traditional perception of a small bike. With a full fairing, supersport styling and raised handlebars, this Japanese pocket rocket proves to be a surprisingly feisty performer. You can take my word for it.

Its the real deal for Indian Market as its prices at Rs. 2.25 LK as per our information. With the Ninja 250R, you don’t need to look far to find affiliation with its larger siblings. Designers did a great job of endowing this model with all the tools and weapons of a true sport star: a superbike-style, two-tier seat, high-mounted footpegs allowing generous cornering clearance, effective protection for the rider’s legs, a sky-pointing tail as well as an aggressive, sloping nose. What’s more, the Z1000-derived headlight adds to the Ninja’s intimidating look. Meanwhile, the chrome-clad, stainless steel muffler emphasizes its big bike looks.
The powerful engine (31 hp) of the Ninja 250R often needs to rev over 10,000 rpm just to keep pace on the highway. On the other hand, riding on small byroads is pure delight

With the 2009 Ninja 250R, Kawasaki has a moderate-displacement street bike offering commendable braking performance, hard-to-overwhelm stability and remarkable nimbleness. It will allow many inexperienced riders to learn the tricks of sportbike riding and track racing at a low cost.

This little Ninja boasts plenty of style in spite of its modest proportions. Furthermore, it turns many heads on the road — you should see the look on other people’s faces when they realize this is only a 250-cc bike.
