Your first Ninja, the new Ninja 125 is now available as a Performance model featuring additional genuine accessories including a smoke windscreen, a sleek colour coded seat cover plus engine sliders. Displaying Kawasaki’s trademark engineering quality from the Ninja H2 trellis style frame to the Kawasaki Racing Team inspired bodywork, the racing image extends to an Arrow carbon silencer. With its responsive 15PS (11kW) engine tuned for low to mid-range flexibility, the Ninja 125 Performance is a great way to say hello to Kawasaki and start enjoying the thrills of motorcycling.
All-digital Instrumentation
All-digital instrument panel gives the cockpit a modern, sporty look.
Sporty Suspension
ø37 mm telescopic fork contributes to both light, nimble handling as well as a generally composed riding character. Kawasaki’s original linkage-equipped Uni Trak rear suspension delivers a smooth ride over a wide range of road conditions.
Transmission
Smooth-shifting six-speed transmission complements the sporty street performance, offering a gear for every situation. The clutch engages smoothly and disengages cleanly, making it easy to operate for new riders and optimising clutch feel for on-road performance.
Independent Sport ABS
Standard equipment ABS contributes to rider reassurance. The highspec system was designed specially for motorcycles and features a very compact ABS unit. Independent activation maximises sporty control.
Powerful Engine
125 cm3 4-stroke Single
Smooth power delivery contributes to the Ninja 125’s 125 cm3 engine’s feel-good performance. Like a typical Kawasaki engine, the engine delivers a good “punch” at high rpm, and continues to pull right up to the rev limiter. Reliability inherited from its robust 250cc base engine adds peace of mind.
Six-speed transmission
Smooth-shifting six-speed transmission complements the sporty street performance, offering a gear for every situation.
Electric start & fuel injection
Electric starter and fuel injection ensure hassle-free starting at the push of a button.
Supersport Ergonomics
The Ninja 125’s ergonomics were designed with sporty street riding in mind. The riding position is naturally aggressive, with the rider leaning forward to reach the racy clip-on handlebars.
Full-size Chassis
The Ninja 125 features a full-size chassis. With a slim, compact trellis frame, sporty suspension and lightweight 17” wheels, the light, nimble handling they offer is ideal for new riders to become familiar with operating a full-size motorcycle.
Slim, compact trellis frame
Trellis frame enables a slim, compact package that is easy to manage, and makes it easy to reach the ground with your feet.
ERGO-FIT High Seat
ERGO-FIT seats enable riders to select seats that optimise their fit on the bike. For the Ninja 125, an ERGO-FIT high seat (+20 mm) is available. (Patterns on the seat material are unique to each machine.)
Ninja Supersport Styling
Like its Ninja brethren, the Ninja 125 features seductive, full-fairing bodywork. Complementing its slim package, the contrast between its flared and waisted sections gives it a dynamic, hourglass figure. Aggressive single-bulb headlamp contributes to the lightweight image, and with the sharp windscreen and sporty wheels, gives this new Ninja a serious supersport look.
Sharp Taillight Design
Sharp taillight design enhances the sporty look of the rear.
Uni Trak Rear Suspension
Uni Trak rear suspension provides great road holding ability and bump absorption, contributing to the bike’s sporty handling. The shock linkage decreases leverage on the shock as the suspension is compressed: small bumps are damped very lightly while big bumps receive lots of damping. The shock has a 5 stroke of 60 mm, helping to ensure the balance of lightweight handling and a composed character. 5-way rear preload adjustability allows riders to adjust the rear ride height, as well as set up the bike to accommodate a passenger or luggage.
Brakes/wheels/tyres
Front and rear disc brakes offer impressive stopping performance. Dualpiston calipers grip a ø290 mm disc up front, and a ø220 mm disc at the rear. Petal disc design adds to the sporty Kawasaki looks.
