Kawasaki Ninja sportbike lineup at Friendly Powersports Slidell
Kawasaki Ninja — Supersport

Sportbike Legacy, Every Class

The Ninja lineup is Kawasaki’s sportbike DNA on the street — from the beginner-friendly Ninja 500 with its parallel-twin, to the middleweight Ninja 650, the middleweight track weapon Ninja ZX-6R, and the flagship liter-class Ninja ZX-10R with WorldSBK bloodlines. There’s a Ninja for every rider.

  • Ninja 500 — approachable parallel-twin, ABS-equipped, first-supersport friendly
  • Ninja 650 — middleweight twin, great for street and canyon riding
  • Ninja ZX-6R — supersport class icon, race-bred handling
  • Ninja ZX-10R — liter-class flagship with WorldSBK-derived electronics
Kawasaki Z — Naked Sport

Sugomi Style, Every Street

Kawasaki’s Z lineup delivers naked streetfighter attitude with the same twin engines that power the Ninja siblings — only without the fairing. Upright ergonomics, sharp Sugomi styling, and instant response make the Z500 and Z650 two of the most fun urban bikes on the road.

  • Z500 — approachable parallel-twin naked with ABS, first-bike friendly
  • Z650 S — middleweight naked twin with sport-tuned suspension
  • Sugomi Z-styling — aggressive naked stance across every trim
  • ABS models in stock
