Review from: www.bestbeginnermotorcycles.com/kawasaki-ninja-500-review
The ninja 500R is equipped with
a 498cc Liquid Cooled, In line 4 stroke
twin engine. The bike has quite a bit of mid-range power but really comes
through once you wind it up a bit, that's where the fun really begins. The
Bike weighs in at a trim 388 pounds dry, and 437 when fully fueled which
helps if you are ever doing slow speed maneuvers and you need to stop
the bike from tipping over. In my opinion this motorcycle is one of the
best bikes for your buck. It gets nearly 50 miles per gallon when riding
normally, and the MSRP is only around $5,000, which is a few grand cheaper
than even the most inexpensive 600cc I-4 sport bike. You can even pick up
a used Ninja for around $2500-3500 by shopping around a little and trying
to spot good deals. Couple that with the cheaper insurance rates you
will get for a bike less than 600cc's and you will save quite a bundle!
So if you are a new rider that is looking for a little more power than the Kawasaki Ninja 250R can provide, then take a look at this motorcycle. You definitely will not be disappointed! |
