The all-new Kawasaki Ninja and Z500 models are LAMS approved and set to arrive Down Under next month. The 451cc parallel twin-cylinder models make 33.4kW@9000rpm and 42.6Nm@6000rpm. With the Ninja priced at $7544 + ORC, we expect the Z500 to come in somewhere just above $7k + ORC. The new models are welcome additions to the ever expanding Kawasaki road range, where you can just about find any motorcycle to suit your needs, particularly in the LAS category.
