Kawasaki Ninja 650R – Middleweight Bike, Heavyweight Fun
These days you can buy a bike for just about any purpose: off roading, racing, street racing, off roading AND street racing, touring, commuting, and anything else you can think of. Unlike years past, where manufacturers had relatively limited lineups, anyone can buy any bike to do anything they’d like. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why we have the glorious Kawasaki Ninja 650R as an option for motorcycle enthusiasts today.
It carries a potent 650cc engine that produces roughly 75 horsepower and 45ft-lbs of torque. Yes, that’s roughly 50 horsepower less than today’s 600cc super-sport bikes (such as the Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R or Yamaha R6), but that’s exactly how Kawasaki, and the riders who adore this kind of motorcycle, want. Unlike the super-sports, the Kawasaki Ninja 650R’s 650cc power plant is a v-twin (like the Suzuki SV650R), and v-twins love one thing above all else: torque.
