The Kawasaki NINJA 500R is Kawasaki's mid-size sportbike for the motorcyclist who wants NINJA performance and styling at an affordable price. With its exceptionally comfortable ergonomics and "real world torque " it can straighten out a twisty backroad or make daily commuting a pleasure. Riders of all skill levels will appreciate the NINJA 500R's liquid-cooled inline twin-cylinder four-stroke engine. With dual overhead cams actuating four valves per cylinder the snappy motor is user-friendly and inspirational. Indeed exploring the top end of this engine's rev range is entertaining for even the most seasoned riders. The high-performance engine isn't the only selling point for the NINJA 500R. On twisty back roads the bike's lightweight compact design makes for a great-handling machine. This is complemented by Kawasaki's UNI-TRAK progressive rear suspension system standard fare on the larger-displacement NINJA models. The NINJA 500R also has the sporty styling of its larger siblings which contribute to both form and function—the aerodynamic half-fairing provides wind protection for the rider and is stylishly complemented by a lower fairing.
