Kawasaki has updated the Ninja 650 for 2017 with a sharp design and made it look more aggressive. The styling on the new Ninja 650 has been clearly inspired by its elder sibling, the ZX-10R. A new feature that has been incorporated on this 650 Kawa is the negative lighting on the instrumentation console, which makes it easier to read the information even under direct sunlight.
The Ninja 650 KRT edition has done remarkably well in the USA, Europe and in other countries, this means it should be sell well in Malaysia also.
The Ninja 650 KRT gets the same 649cc parallel-twin motor that makes 67bhp and 65Nm. The engine is paired to a six-speed gearbox which has a slipper clutch. The bike now gets updated brake calipers from Nissin and there is also a Bosch 9.1 ABS system offered as standard.
