The Kawasaki Ninja is a formidable machine that has stamped its authority all over the racetrack as well as the highways and byways of the world.
East Coast Motorcycles is running some special prices on the Ninja 250 and Ninja 300, two relatively newcomers to the Ninja clan.
The Ninja 250R was recently matched up to World Superbike Champion Max Biaggi, when he posted an average speed of 163,8 kilometres per hour during the South African GP in Welkom. The baby Ninja 250R was measured at just 2,5 seconds more than Max to go around the track at an average speed of 159,7 kilometres per hour.
Being lighter and easier to handle the Kawasaki Ninja 250R makes up in the corners what it misses out on the long straights. Much like a Ninja's sword, the lighter 250R is a much easier weapon to yield than its heavier counterparts, and with the body styling being so close to the big swords of the ZX-10R and the latest ZX-6R.
So if looks could kill, the Ninja 250R and Ninja 300R would be as lethal a weapon as their big brothers. Cruise on down to East Coast Motorcycles at 10 Meridian Drive, Umhlanga Ridge, and adopt a baby Ninja. You will be thrilled, that's for sure.
