2012 Kawasaki Ninja 250R Special Edition[edit | edit source]
Good news for all australians, as Kawasaki made a special edition of their very successful 250R, with a few improvements that make it really stand out in the market. With a full fairing based on the impressive Ninja ZX-10R, with a little more attention to details, this bike looks almost ready to enter the track.
Its tech/engine side being the same as the 250R, but with some fine tuning in the exhaust, suspension and the brakes, the bike is the perfect choice for a racetrack-like feeling but also easy-to ride and cheap to maintain.
