The Ninja 650R's most outstanding trait is its user-friendliness. It’s the combination of the smooth engine, lightweight trellis frame, low seat height, comfortable riding position and low-effort controls that make this a very easy bike to get along with, no matter what your ability

Sleek and lean, the Ninja 650R is a flat-out gorgeous motorcycle to look at. Its clean, flowing lines blend perfectly with the rider's body while the sculpted, aerodynamic Ninja Supersport styled bodywork screams energy and excitement.

The key to the Ninja 650R's compact size is its 649cc liquid-cooled, fuel injected, parallel twin. Far and away the most compact engine in its category, it delivers smooth, responsive performance, with excellent mid-range power characteristics delivering impressive roll-on response from 50 km/h.

We all want a clean planet, and the combination of efficient fuel injection and a 3-way catalyser inside the muffler make for very low emissions, helping the Ninja 650R pass the most stringent regulations and ensure a green future.

The compact engine allows for the use of an elegant, minimalist frame that feels exceptionally slim between your legs. It also enables an extremely short wheelbase and long swing arm for light and nimble handling and outstanding rear suspension action.

The riding position was specially designed to inspire rider confidence. An ideal relationship between the handlebars, seat and footpegs results in a comfortable and natural position suitable for a wide range of riders.
