Release of the BS6 Kawasaki Ninja 650 in India; At the price of Rs. 6.24 Lakh

The Kawasaki Ninja 650 BS6 2021 was launched in India at a price of 6.24 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The bike will be assembled locally and has a premium of around ₹ 35,000 compared to the BS4 model, which is significantly lower than what Kawasaki had originally announced. The BS6 Ninja 650 receives numerous design updates with the BS6 engine. The front is now similar to the Versys 1000 and Ninja 400, slightly elongated and designed more aggressively. The twin headlights are now LED units and the new visor, which adapts to the fairing. The passenger seat is now wider and seems more comfortable.
