Efficient performance for the everyday rider. Few motorcycle designs manage to balance a rider’s need for performance, comfort and sportbike style as well as the Ninja® 500R. Expert and beginning riders will appreciate the Ninja 500R’s liquid-cooled, inline twin-cylinder four-stroke engine. With dual overhead cams actuating four valves per cylinder, the snappy motor is user-friendly and inspirational. Exploring the top end of this engine’s rev range is entertaining for even the most seasoned rider. |
