In Indonesia, Kawasaki has released the much-anticipated naked Ninja 250. The ‘Kawasaki Z250SL,’ where SL stands for Sport Lightweight, is the name given to it. The bike is constructed on a Tube-style diamond frame chassis and is more sporty than the Ninja 250. It has a street fighter appearance that sets it out from the rest.
Style and Design Kawasaki Z250SL
In terms of the single conspicuous low-positioned headlight, halogen headlamps, sturdy fuel tanks, and general appearance of the bike, the Z250SL is similar to its predecessors, the Z800 and Z1000. The alloy wheels improve the appearance of the NZ250SL.
Furthermore, the black rearview mirrors, well-positioned handlebar and footrests, front and rear turn indicators, a lovely tail light, a step-up seat, a stylish exhaust, and a well-sculpted fuel tank make it a head-turner.
Dimensions, weight, and capacity of the fuel tank
Its measurements are 1935 mm in length, 700 mm in width, and 1015 mm in height, with a weight of 148 kg. It features an 11-liter gasoline tank capacity that will not let you down on extended journeys.
