Is it better to purchase a Kawasaki Ninja 400 or 500?

Deciding between the Kawasaki Ninja 500 and the Ninja 400? Here's the scoop. The Ninja 500 is stepping in to take the place of the 400, and the price cuts on the older model are there to clear out leftover bikes.

The pricing of the Ninja 500, which is intriguingly the same as the Ninja 400 without any reductions, is Rs 5.24 lakh when it first launches. This new bike features modified side panels and a redesigned back light, all of which are inspired by the ZX-6R. It also has a newly designed, but still LCD screen that can pair with your phone using Bluetooth. With an increased displacement of 451cc, the engine's horsepower remains at 45, but its torque increases to 42.6Nm from 37Nm.

Aside from its affordable pricing, the Ninja 500's engine requires less revving to reach its maximum performance, which is one of its main advantages. This implies that when you're speeding through the city, it ought to feel quicker and more responsive. Nonetheless, the Ninja 400 can still be your best option if you want the excitement of pushing a bike to high speeds and savoring that sporty bike atmosphere.

However, if the Ninja 400 is calling your name, you might want to act fast. The Ninja 500 is here to take over, and any discounts on the 400 are basically a farewell party for it.
