Ninja650R

The instrumentation on this Ninja is inspired from MotoGP bar-style digital tachometer. It also displays the usual digital speedometer, odometer, fuel gauge, dual trip meters and a clock.

But I am sure you won't care to look at it when you would be nudging past 200 kmph, which this bike can easily do.

Ninja 650R

The Ninja 650R weighs in at 200 kg and uses a 6-speed manual transmission to transfer all that power to the road. But what really sets this Ninja apart is the pricing.

The company plans to price the 650R around Rs 6 lakh, which is a big threat to the Hyosung GT650R. Knowing Bajaj, we can expect the Ninja to outperform all others in its segment.

Now only if they get the ZZ1400R.
