Reviews of Kawasaki Ninja 650 [2020-2021]

I got the White colour model from Pune on the 18th of September. Driven about 2000 kms so far. Here is my detailed review after 1 month of use -
1. The ride quality is sheer class. I am over 6 feet tall and i can honestly say that every kilometer ridden was in absolute comfort.
2. The 650 cc parallel twin engine gives you enough power/torque when you need it thus enabling power on tap. The shifting is smooth. Barely felt any lag whatsoever. The pickup is sublime. On a clear stretch of road with proper riding gear i managed to do 0-100 in 3.8 seconds. This bike is a beast in its own right.
3. The 4.3 tft display now replaces the analog display of the previous iteration. Although there are little to no bike configuration options available for this model it is one of, if not the best display in its segment. The Rideology app could do with some work though. The ride logs are not updating in real time. If i ride for 100 kms. The ride log shows I've travelled 300 kms on a completely different route.
All in all its an amazing machine. Comfortable riding in both city and highway. Wouldn't recommend off-roading though.

About the Reviewer

I have taken this beauty on a ride from calicut to wayanad to bangalore (hilly terrain) and from bangalore to coimbatore and back to bangalore (highway terrain). Both the rides were nothing less than amazing, the control of the bike, the pick up, the turn radius on the hair pin bends, the grip on the tyres. Nothing less than amazing. It was pure beauty on the hilly terrains and a beast on the highways, where 190kmh feels like you are going on 120kmh. Don't think twice before buying it. It's worth it.

The buying experience wasn’t upto my expectation from the showroom where I purchased the bike, but it depends on the showroom how special they try to make you feel. The ride quality is amazing, the way the bike pulls, which is very smooth. Also the bike might heat up in traffic but it wont be that of an issue as heat management is very good. A complete eye catcher on roads. Random people approach you to take pictures and ask questions. First service costs you around 8-10k.
Pros- Speechless looks, amazing torque and power, TFT display (to showoff that my bike has a full colored screen, easy to use daily.
Cons- 130mm ground clearance (watch out for high speed bumps, sound (of-course its a parallel twin can’t expect much but the rivals; Benelli 600i has a amazing inline 4 symphony and also the triumph trident has a amazing 3 cylinder sound).

Its a hyper bike and the bike is very smooth to run and my riding experience is that you can use it as a daily routine and the look and aerodynamic are very excellent first of all, it has a engine of 650 cc so that is why i give 5 star to this bike i didn't face any time of problem till now. I like the Kawasaki braking system it's very excellent for this bike.
