  • The Kawasaki Ninja 500 doesn't promise to be the fastest or fanciest of the segment, so you do need to manage your expectations, but that doesn't mean it's a subpar motorcycle. The Ninja 500 makes promises where they matter most: everyday versatility, ease of ownership, and usable performance.

    Good to see some positivity towards a bike. People will buy what they want no matter. Kawasaki always make good bikes but people being people are never satisfied, and always find fault, even when they haven' t seen one up close or yet ridden one. Yes on paper the spec may seem wanting, but in reality it might well be amazing. Wait and see. Imo.

    Friendly reminder to downvote these awful spam videos. No footage of them riding the bike, it’s nothing but marketing footage. The dialog’s literally just Reddit comments rehashed over and over. This video provides no meaningful information, and serves no purpose. 1/10

      I had more fun on my Ninja 300 than I ever had on my ZX-6R. People told me that I would out grow it and get tired of it, which I did. It took me riding a super sport for a few years to realize that riding a slower bike to 100% of its potential all the time is a lot more fun than utilizing 50% of a 600’s potential 90% of the time.

      It's a beginners bike. What do you expect? Most people buying this bike are new to the bike community and this is a great bike for learning and getting acquainted to the motorcycle world.

      @@ishu87 I agree with you....I was saying that most people who think smaller bikes are not a good choice probably can't ride them to their full potential.
      Eg a 600cc rider who thinks 300cc's are shit but he couldn't ride itas fast as it could be ridden.
      I wasn't giving shit to new riders bro

      @@GKB.officialthere’s several bikes that are labeled as such. I don’t see a big deal. Like some car brands, A3, 4, 5, 6, and so on doesn’t change all that much. Especially from the A3. So that’s when you do your research. It’s not named the Ninja 500cc. I can see where you’re coming from though.

      From what I’ve seen a ton of people have had a blast on the bike. More so in twisties than highway. The 400 and 500 and beat 600s on tracks due to the weight and how nimble it is. You just gotta be a good rider since the straight is where you’ll lose your advantafevv
