The Kawasaki Ninja is one of the few bikes that are as instantly identifiable. Even people who do not ride motorcycles sometimes mistakenly label any fully-faired sportbike as a Ninja, even though this is not the case.
In light of this, it seems reasonable that Kawasaki’s sleek green racing motorcycle has evolved to become appropriate for riders of all skill levels.
For instance, compared to the United States, our riding counterparts in Europe have far tighter motorcycle licensing requirements.
This implies that young, inexperienced motorcyclists must begin their riding career on a small-displacement motorcycle with an engine capacity no larger than 125cc and a maximum power output of 15 horses.
As a result, it comes as no surprise that the majority of well-known manufacturers have created versions based on larger, more potent machines that are specifically aimed at novices. The Kawasaki Ninja 125 and Z125 are two examples.
The Z125 and Ninja 125 have been available on the European market for a while and have given beginning riders a sporty platform to start with while upholding the brand’s racing-inspired character.
The 125cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engines of these bikes have a maximum output of 15 horsepower, pushing them to the extreme limit of permissible performance. Apart from performance, the Z125 and Ninja 125 give first-timers some very amazing tech, including ABS as standard and a completely digital instrument cluster.
Additionally, they receive Kawi’s Ergo-Fit system, which enables users to add and remove seat pads to change the bike’s height to match their degree of comfort.
Kawasaki has updated its beginner-friendly options for Europe for the 2023 model year by releasing new hues for the Ninja and Z125.
Young riders will have the option of Candy Lime Green/Metallic Spark Black or Pearl Storm Gray for the Kawasaki Z125. Sportier children choose the Ninja 125, which offers a completely faired appearance but only in Lime Green/Ebony as a trade-off.
