Kawasaki has unveiled the 2022 ZX-25R in the Indonesian market. The quarter-litre motorcycle has only received a cosmetic update while mechanically it remains the same. The bike is available in two variants and four new colour options. The Ninja ZX-25R ABS SE is priced at IDR 116,000,000 (Rs 5.94 lakh), while the standard variant is priced at IDR 98,850,000 (Rs 5.06 lakh). While its launch in the Indian market seems highly unlikely, let's take a look at the details of the updated Ninja ZX-25R.
Engine
Powering the 2022 model is the same 249.8cc inline four-cylinder liquid-cooled motor that produces 50.3bhp at 15,500rpm and 22.9Nm at 14,500rpm. All this power and torque is put down via a six-speed transmission. This high revving 249.8cc mill makes the Ninja ZX-25R one of the most powerful quarter-litre motorcycles to be in production right now.
Design
The Ninja ZX-25R is a sharp and aggressive looking motorcycle. It gets graphics all across its fairing, underbelly exhaust, single rider seat and a sharp tail section. It is further offered with four new colour options: Lime Green/Ebony/Pearl Blizzard White, Passion Red/Pearl Blizzard White, Metallic Matte Graphene Steel Grey/Metallic Spark Black, and Metallic Spark Black.
Features
The quarter-litre motorcycle is offered with features like an LED taillight, slipper clutch, Kawasaki traction control system, power modes and dual-channel ABS. It further comes with an economical riding indicator that helps the rider to extract the best efficiency from the street naked motorcycle.
Hardware
The ride here is taken care of by 37mm inverted forks at the front and horizontal back-link, gas-charged shock absorbers at the rear. Meanwhile, for braking, it employs a single semi-floating 310mm disc and a single 220mm disc at the rear. The bike is equipped with 17-inch wheels on both ends. These wheels are wrapped with tyres having 110mm width at the front and 150mm width at the rear.
Dimensions
Finally, moving to the dimensions of the bike, it is 1980mm long, stands 1110mm tall and is 750mm wide. The wheelbase here is kept at 1380mm, the ground clearance is 125mm and the weight of the bike is 182kg.
