Nice Review...

Now the wait for ZX6R or even better ZX10R starts...

If the pricing stays on the same lines.... boy.. I am game.

Awesome bike pics . Plus like the way Indian Biking scene is headed with releases in the Super-sport category soon followed by Sport-tourers-Yeah!!!...
I agree N250R is proved to be good for touring but this one with the "built from scratch for sport-touring" set-up should make it one hell of a touring machine.
Above all , the Pricing !!! ... May be seeing Ninja250R pricing, I was expecting it be in upwards of 5.5lac ex showroom given the heritage etc etc but this Green machine is spot-on when it comes to price! Hyosung should serious watch out !

In India the best sport-tourer on offer presently being Suzuki Bandit 1250 (Also in the whole world when it comes to VFM ) is in upwards of 8 lacs , this seems practical for those looking for a sport-touring with that oomph factor (green!) and at something at much lesser price...

Bottom line - Stop spending .... Start saving !

Sports tourer usually dont have clip ons like the FAZER,Bandit for the extra comfort.But Hyper Tourers like VFR etc do but compromising the extra comfort.

Ultra cool pics.

this must be by far the most relevant product from Kawasaki for India. it has all the right ingredients. this bike inspires me to somehow reach a level when i can afford it. too good

Now only if BAL could do something about the 250r pricing .

Awesome..was not updated on the biking scene and when i logged in today this news blew me away..now realizing my dream for a big bike doesnt seem far enough.

Loved the pics but the review could have been a little more informative.

Sunny, must say, awesome pics. Love your work with the camera.

Is it time for me to sell my 250R off? I don't think so. I will wait for the ZX-6R, better if they get the ZX-14. Most importantly, bring these at a great price like 250R and 650R.

This looks more like a first impression than a proper review. I hope magazine will feature a full fledged review.

re iterating again -- parallel threads

mahabaleshwar has been painted green this time around

again a very vfm product but does it pulls your heart's strings--only time will tell

I am hoping the comparo should be brutally honest & not politically correct with the GT650 atleast for the xbhpians tuned to this thread
